ADHD and easier to type a url than open a new tab. People that can maintain a curated tab list.. I wish my brain would allow it.

Once a day I close browsers to make sure there’s not some work item I forgot to hit post on.

There was once a house in a Nantucket, they tried to save sand by the bucket, the ocean and sea, would not let it be, so they tried sell and say muck it

Just listened to it again. Highly recommend. The short of it is more searches == more ads == more $. There’s a conflict between a great search experience (landing not on google) versus the time you spend ON Google.

Great story and just terrible outcome.

The closest I ever got to this story was working help desk in 1996. A user called up saying they had deleted the Internet.

Took me a while to understand he dragged “the Internet” to the recycle bin on the desktop.

Bring that to your department chair and ask if they can help sponsor the trip. It’s a big deal and something the department would be proud of.

If really interested, the local NPR station did a long origin story of the Alabama Prison System.

There was one prison until slavery ended.

Even more so, he left the organization he evangelized with on a principled equality basis.

This process is such a nightmare.

N letters back and forth then a bill stage where you realize something wasn’t paid for. Then an hour long phone call to start an appeal process asking for more documentation about a test ordered 5 months ago. The denials are handwaves.

Insurance in general is such a nightmare. I’m in the fortunate bucket where I’m well paid and have a decent plan. One kid with chronic conditions. Then the pain of every year being forced to figure out the different game.

One of my favorite albums. Saw her about a year ago in concert and she puts on a fun show.

Since you built one, you can probably answer the ergonomics question I’ve always had. It’s been years since I did fighting games.

6 button SF arrangement had the buttons in a straight line so your index finger tip could hit the quick punch and middle of finger hit quick kick.

The slant to the left arrangement breaks that. Is there an ergonomic reason why?
