Not so many posts, but I did build my own blog engine for the sake of it.

One likely cause that's not mentioned so far, is that paradoxically the stomach doesn't produce enough acid. The sphincter usually closes when the stomach begins digestion, but this only happens if a certain pH threshold is reached. There are some receptors in the stomach that detect this pH level and signal the sphincter to close. The lower acidity output is typically caused by unhealthy diet and frequent meals. To fix it, apart from reducing the frequency of meals, you can ingest more acid, in the form of vinegar or lemon juice. This is counterintuitive but I can confirm it works, it helped me a lot to mitigate the problem.

Thanks for giving us hope but it's not there

Stress response depends vastly on the game. A lot of games will actually increase stress levels. Take Elden Ring for example, that game will make you sweat at almost every encounter. But it’s possible that this kind of exposure might make you more resilient to stress in the long tun.

Nice one, how did the interviewer react?

Cheap energy means lower costs of manufacturing therefore lower prices for consumer goods, thus increasing quality of life.

There's no easy way around it. I enabled continuous motion in a few games and practiced for a few minutes until I could no longer tolerate it. Try feeling the ground with your feet, that helps a lot. The interesting part is that when you lose motion sickness you also lose some of the VR immersion, it's like telling the brain "this is not real, it's the body you need to trust not the eyes".

I think one of the greatest barriers to VR adoption is not resolution etc. but motion sickness. It is caused by the conflicting signals the brain receives from the body and from the eyes. Currently the only way to get rid of it is through training, but I'm not sure how many people are willing to go through the process. It took me about a month to fully get rid of it, but I assume it vastly differs from person to person.

We even offered GitHub financial compensation for any resources required

What? Can anyone explain this? Are people so desperate about github stars these days that they’re willing to pay Microsoft for them?

Unsurprisingly I'm doing the same, and the file is also named 'links.txt'. Using tags however, instead of categorising. Problem is, I almost never get to read them, an issue that this app is trying to alleviate.

Signing commits is a local affair, you don't want to be uploading your private key to Github. You sign locally via command line and then push to Github where they get verified with your public key.

Another aspect might be that companies list job openings when they don't actually need them. It's probably just to gain visibility in the market, justify HR salaries or keep a door open for the next 10x developer who might land on their site. The only ones who lose here are the people taking the interviews and getting rejected for no apparent reason.

In VSCode it actually draws the font with very small size. It might look better on larger resolution displays. You can also increase the size with "editor.minimap.scale": 4

I’ve seen it, it’s really innovative but I was hoping for a more traditional one that has actual characters.

Could this support a code map? That would be a killer feature for any vim/neovim UI.

Problem is the tech world is changing very fast. If you're going to sit idle hoping to make the same amount of cash every year, you're going to disappear within 5-6 years. Not liking where Discord is headed either, just saying some change is necessary not only for growing, but for staying relevant.

Also interested. Looks like a lot of it is JS code written by hand. This is certainly readable code: https://ciechanow.ski/js/navarch.js

Thanks. Can't say I'm surprised of developers not including relevant links on their readme page.

I can see in their FAQ that there are plans to monetize this. So they're building an ML model that feeds on the work done by millions of people and then selling it? How is this even ethical? Not to mention we'd be feeding the model while using it. Guess this is another instance where we are becoming the product.

Fully agree on the color issue. Most color schemes in any editor today look like rainbows, very distracting for day to day usage. I ended up building my own color scheme for vim using only 4 colors.

Thanks, subscribed to their subreddit. Never had the time to jump into Garry's Mod but might give this one a try when it comes out.

Modding is a totally underrated thing right now, but I feel it might become big in the future. Someone just needs to come up with a solution to both keep mods free and incentivize mod authors.

The way I see it, the big boys create games that acts as platforms and users freely create content of their own using these platforms. Bethesda/Microsoft might be in a good position to achieve this, they have good modding communities around their other games, really interested what their next title brings to the table, hope they don't blow it up like the last time they tried to monetize mods.

You also have something like Roblox, where the concepts of game development and modding kinda blend together, so it's definitely a trend to keep an eye on in the future.

Set the AI to None for both players in the settings, that should do it.

People star these lists because it's a way of bookmarking them for later reference. If I had only 5$ to spare I'd rather donate them to one of the authors of the actual projects.

10 Bitcoin were transferred and then cashed out anonymously a few days later.

Genuinely interested how the coins were cashed out anonymously. Pretty much all exchanges require KYC these days, and Bitcoin addresses can be tracked and blacklisted if the right processes are put in place, in theory at least.

If you're looking to practice the h,j,k,l keys in a fun way, simply play Nethack or other roguelikes that support these movement keys. In 2-3 hours you'll be flying around the map and you won't even know how you're doing it.

It always bothered me that Github uses “Issues” for the name of the discussion board, as if encountering problems is the only reason to engage in conversation with the author.

Not necessarily. Static IP and PTR records improve the "credibility" factor, but it's not required. I'm running mine on the dynamic IP provided by the ISP, without PTR. Despite the warnings I get from the mail scanning tools, I can send mail to Gmail, Yahoo and the other major providers.

"not your keys not your coin" has been advocated for years on any discussion board, unfortunately it's falling on death ears. Typical users just like the convenience of centralized exchanges and "attractive" offers like this one.

Am I correct in that the definition of "freezing" here is private company refuses to do business with marked cash?

Yea that's correct. They track the coins as they flow from one address to another. It can be increasingly difficult once the funds are divided, but entirely possible with automation. It's worth noting that this is not possible with some privacy focused cryptocurrencies like Monero.
