I think one good reason is connecting with the youth. My kids are too young for Tik Tok but old enough to come home with 6-7 (btw, best antidote to that is the 7-8-9 joke ;) ) and "chicken banana", and I'm told this comes from Tik Tok. I grew up in a house where every BSOD was caused by the fact that we installed video games, and I'd rather not be that kind of parent to my own kids. I'm also like GP though, I'd rather not go full scrollhead, so it's a bit of a dilemma.
> You might even say “Aha!” This kind of sudden realization is known as insight, and a research team recently uncovered how the brain produces it (opens a new tab), which suggests why insightful ideas tend to stick in our memory.
Keep an anxiety log for a few months. In my experience, this feeling of correctness is a retrospective impression that relies heavily on confirmation bias, and in reality is nowhere near that high. Either way, a concrete log will confirm or deny it.
If it's truly correct, then I'd say it's not anxiety and that you're probably more attuned to subtle cues. You can learn to pay conscious attention to these cues, evaluate them, and decide strategically if you want to act on them. The idea is to keep your advantage without the negative emotional reaction.
If it's not that accurate, having proof can help you internalize that you're just going through some particular emotional process, without according it any undue weight. Having let go of that, you can start picking up mechanical tricks for anxiety management, like breathing techniques.
Thank you very much, this is exactly the starting point I needed. I'll keep following the citations trail into more recent years, but your second link from 2007 reinforces my feeling that we're still very far from understanding the mechanisms:
> Second, within LIPC, we found a gradient in which a more dorsal-posterior region was involved in SR, a mid region was involved in both SR and EE, and a more ventral-anterior region was involved in EE, but only when SR was high.
To me, these are merely clues about how the high-level pieces fit together, and there's a long road to actually understanding the neural correlates of memory.
> The working memory and episodic memory papers in the last few years have isolated the correlates, we a have a fairly empirical neurobiological description of memory function and process.
Would you kindly provide some references? I'm very interested in this research as an armchair enthusiast, but in my own reading I've yet to find anything this confident.
The complement of a set consists of everything that is not in the set. Having your complement commoditized is a good thing, it refers to everything your users need that is not part of your value proposition. If it's commoditized, your users have easier access to it hence use more of it, which drives up their demand for the things that _are_ part of your value proposition.
When compared to the "plumbing" commands. If you want to know more about git's plumbing vs porcelain metaphor, this is a good quick overview: https://stackoverflow.com/a/39848551
The full term is "mise en place" and your analogy with the IDE is not far off, but there's an interesting nuance that's very useful to adopt when programming too. Mise en place is an ephemeral thing, you do it every time you start cooking and you look ahead at all the things you will need and arrange them in an optimal way for the steps you will take. It's an activity that encourages you to:
- always start from a clean state
- chunk your time
- give a bit of forethought to the work ahead
- do a little bit of workflow optimization
Over time, this is one habit that can have impressive compounding benefits.
You could simply encode the json to base64 and put it in the url fragment (hash). Then you can save by bookmarking the url and share by copy/pasting it, all without a server. I've seen some web games use this method but I can't remember which off the top of my head.
The minimum viable product concept comes to mind. You don't have a product until you invest the effort required to pass the minimum threshold.
Another example I can think of is escape velocity. I'd venture that the principle you're asking for is "phase change", where a threshold gates a drastic change in behavior.
Several comments here advise getting a good mushroom identification book instead of relying on plant id apps for foraging. Do you have any recommendations? And more generally, how would you go about assessing the trustworthiness of any such book?
That's interesting, as a québécois I don't agree with any of this. The only thing that raised an eyebrow was "est à même de", but if turns out it's just another way of saying "capable de", I guess it's simply not a common idiom around here. Aside from that, I found the wording flowed well even if I personally would've phrased it differently.
Do you want Python? Because this is how you get Python.
Joke aside, this is why I never understood this problem. With proper indentation it looks essentially like Python with a generous helping of your-father's-parentheses.
"Reduction in force", similar to a layoff. A layoff happens when the company can no longer afford an employee they'd otherwise like to keep, a RIF happens when the role no longer makes sense and is closed permanently.
