I think he means the conclusion you were talking about when you said "I have come to the conclusion..."

The delay is on HN side, when people reply too quickly.

I use ctrl-c and ctrl-v for those. Right hand presses right control with palm of hand (just below pinky). Left hand types the letter like normal.

I just kind of roll my hand to the ctrl key, I don't use a finger to press it.

Same thing with right-ctrl.

Use it for a month or two and decide it's not for you.

That is in between "use it for very short period of time" and "use it forever"

Depends if you mean "server" as in piece of metal (or vm), or as in "a daemon"

From what I have read (not having actually used Zulip) it always sounded like the chats were threaded in the same way that mailing lists or newsgroups are threaded.

How accurate is that understanding?

I use the fast normal knot for shoes I am going to tie/untie a lot and the secure knot for everything else.

I think that's just sun+charging, not wireless charging specific.

You're starting with the plate, getting the home, and then you can get the real estate info.

Most people don't expect their identity to be discoverable from their driving.

  They promise education, but really they give you tests and scores

  And they predictin' prison population by who scoring the lowest

350MB so 2 would fit on a standard CDROM.

Anagram, perhaps.

If spouse-a has gambling addiction and spends all of the family money, then spouse-b was effectively forced to gamble.

He says in his comment that they inject the urine, then, a few days later, they kill the rabbit.

I think "call screening with Google Fi" is some kind of service/feature, which they have enabled.

Sounds...legit tho? I sure wouldn't want tinnitus, so if that can be softened, seems worth doing.

Credit cards have better consumer protection than debit cards.

You are on the hook for like $50 max of fraudulent credit card, and like $500 of fraudulent debit. If you don't catch debit in time, you might be liable for all of it.

The people who tout "you can pause it" as an advantage of home theater are just not consuming movies the way I consume movies.

If you are in the theatre, no one is going to talk to you about the movie, or comment on it for no reason, etc.

I still regret pausing Lost Highway (like 25 years ago) so we could go out and smoke a cigarette. It completely broke the spell and the movie just wasn't the same from then on.

That sounds like accessibility, not durability.

Usually when people use the phrase, "But what do I know?", it's to flag that they think they probably do know.

Median household income is like $80k

Left arrow is not where my fingers are, but ctrl-b is.

I would have to move my whole hand over to the arrow keys, or I can use the edge of my right hand (on a full size keyboard, not laptop) to hit ctrl, and hit "b" with my left index finger.

I have heard that told with “VCR” in place of microwave. We still have a microwave that needs clock set when power fails. We do not have a VCR.

If you are already using tmux, what is the value of using mosh? Sincere question.

Physics math has high overlap with Finance math.

Nowadays, it's true they usually use watts.

But not too long ago (and still very common in office-building server rooms) they use "tons of refrigeration", which takes its name from the amount of power it takes to phase change a ton of water in 1 day. It is 12k BTU/h.

Wait until you hear about the units they use for cooling.

Tell me you don't datacenter without telling me you don't datacenter.

In grade school when we read aloud (taking turns in class), I would be able to read my section out loud, but have no idea what it said until I went back and "really" read it.

When I started reading out loud to my son, decades later, I finally learned how to "really" read at the same time as reading out loud. I also learned how to read ahead to see who was going to talk next so that I could do the voices properly. (Discworld books are great for this, because his writing really helps you know how to pronounce the dialog.)

Switching back and forth between keyboard and mouse is a pain. I used QB a lot at my last job but current one has too many things which need passwords entered frequently so I am reduced to vimium and chrome.
