I totally agree. Over time it has became one of our family's most consistently used streaming services. Seeing this actually reminded me that we were using premium (I had forgotten about the free option). The subscription also includes Youtube Music (which is a passable replacement for Spotify).
3 year warranty instead of 10, but I've had a lot of problems with Philips LED Flicker-Free Dimmable BR30 Indoor Light Bulb. They consistently die and need to be replaced within a year or so. I replaced a couple under warranty but just gave up after the hassle involved. I've tried other brands without success and would love to know what a good reliable alternative would be.
I've had a Supernote A5X for several months now and have really loved it. I have way too many half filled paper notebooks floating around the house. I also tend to do a lot of scratch notes for work as I think through a problem and I love being able to do that in a way that doesn't end up filling up a physical notebook with stuff I won't care about in a month.
Have you written about your process for making these notebooks? The end product looks great and I'd love to know more about what's involved and how much effort is required.
Updated my post with more details. I can usually make around 15 pages a day with my current set up. That's all I really have space for. But since each page gets folded in the notebook that ends up being quite a few pages. If I start early it takes about 24 hours between making the paper with the mould and deckle, squeezing out the water, and hanging them to dry.
The actually paper making process is pretty quick. I usually just put in some noise cancelling earbuds and just listen to some music while I work!
Yes, it's strange that my urologist has never mentioned it either. I wonder if this result applies to all types of kidney stones or just calcium oxalate.
A preventative like this is good to know, but, really, all you need to do is drink a lot of water through the day. That is the number one way to avoid a kidney stone. I have had a urologist say, "Hell, you can drink enough beer, and you should be good." - Though, if you are prone to gout (your body generally likes to make crystals), beer ain't a great choice.
Believe me when I say that I make strong habits of anything and everything I come across, including hydration, that offers a reasonable prospect of reducing the chance I will have another kidney stone.
I know doctors tell us to chug water but it’s just tiring sometimes. In winter for example, I just don’t feel thirsty and I just get bored heating water, making time to drink it etc.
So yeah, drinking 2-4 litres of water can feel unnatural to me.
I mean, ideally you don't do it all at once, but if you can chug a pint of beer then you can chug a pint of water, too.
Thirst is weird. I find it manifests as an unaccountable malaise and lack of focus well before I begin to perceive the sensation I understand as thirstiness per se.
Completely agree , If I’m ever feeling cloudy, foggy, down, extremely tired during the day I usually feel better almost immediately after 2 glasses of water.
Yes I know what you mean, you don’t have to drink it all at once, but I still get bored having to drink. It’s just. Personal thing I guess. Kind of have to force water into my system.
My understanding of this is that this is trading a build step for just in time (JIT) compilation, which seems, ok? But it seems to me that you've just moved the problem around and I'm sure there are additional trade-offs (as with anything).
yeah, exactly. So I wonder if ultimately they want to have the browser handle transpiling things like typescript? And I definitely think there are other concerns (such as linting) that you want to happen as part of your development pipeline.
There is an ES39 proposal to allow type annotations in Javascript, that would allow the browser to handle TS/Flow files without needing a compile step:
(That's only to allow the type annotations to be there, not to have static checking in the browser)
IMO: I would love to see this implemented. Linting and typechecking should be ran before committing code or deploying, but I want to be able to stop transpiling/bundling in all cases.
that sounds needlessly wasteful. You can trivially strip TS out of JS before sending off to the client. You're still going to need to check TS in the build/CI step (i.e. the time consuming part) before doing anything so you've gained exactly nothing.
"You can trivially strip TS out of JS before sending off to the client"
To quote you, that sounds needlessly wasteful to me. Also I prefer not needing to deal with SourceMaps or different source when debugging. So it's quite the contrary: I gain a lot. Different strokes for different folks.
I understand your reasoning but it seems to be focused more around developer time rather than bundle size and user experience if I am not mistaken.
The ratio between built code size and source size can easily reach orders of magnitude in TypeScript projects with exhaustive types.
Sending all that code to the user is wasteful, and this wastefulness is multiplied by X end users, as opposed to the development process which is centralized.
From a money perspective the picture is different of course.
I would still love to be able to execute TS directly in the browser, but this is purely a DX thing.
I feel like this is what everyone actually wants. Typescript in the browser (at least for me personally) would be awesome, and if they made TS into a separate language with its own runtime, that would be like the holy grail.
Ok fine but if humanity is ever on the brink of extinction and this question is no longer important then we should have something ready to shoot a seed and ensure at least some form of life will expand beyond Earth. Maybe we could shoot out to several planets. I’m sure this is the premise of some sci-fi story.
I think the technical solution to this is to simply index the documents in their rendered (or plain text) format and search against that. Unfortunately that would require an additional tool or plugin.
