learned a lot from this. On panning/timing/pitch differences, some volume variation ideas using LCR panning.

Humans pumped and displaced so much groundwater in just two decades that we shifted the tilt of Earth’s axis, new research suggests.

I love this

Great list. Liked the line “Boredom is the stealthy third party in relationships”. And this:

9. Talking about feelings is a trap.
   Everyone who knows me knows this is one hill I will die on. While I’m all about encouraging people to talk about their feelings, I am equally devoted to the idea we should shut up sometimes.

Sharing every little thought and feeling with partners is often born of insecurity, which is understandable, especially if your partner is not giving much (or any) feedback. But no-one can listen intently to all of it. It’s exhausting for them, not to mention a little boring.

Solid first comment, too

On an emotional level, I think it’s better to start from a place of (unconditional!) self-love, and go from there, rather than beating yourself up because you’re not meeting some blogger’s expectations of how you should act.

great writeup! Took it apart with some bits from a watch repair kit. They were metal inside of plastic, but didn’t damage the headphones.

excellent advice. write whatever you want. or don’t.

Blogging isn’t for everyone. Tons of amazing developers don’t have blogs or personal websites at all. I write because it’s fun for me and it helps me organize my thoughts.

this seems like something you do not want

great advice. on being weirder, and buying multiples to save future effort

incredible project, that has inspired me to try unbinding a book

one of the best MR comments sections I have seen

In 80 to 100 days, 30 trillion will have replenished — the equivalent of a new you"

Emphasis added to where I think confusion comes from. This is just raw number of cells. We have the largest number of blood cells, but by mass are mostly fat and muscle cells (which last for decades).

the act of letting go of ideas (putting them into notes) lets them become effective to us

Convinced me to start using xfce timer, and it has already been useful!

Seeing more of these GitHub-as-a-blog.
