Insanity

In Belgium we used netlog a lot. But I belief it was aimed more at teenagers though

Ah yeah, I completely forgot about this.

Oh thank you rfz, I did not know that. Signal is the only chromium app that I am using. Are they making a stand alone app?

Out of curiosity, why did you switch to Chrome? I have been using Chromium on all my machines, a Ubuntu one being my main machine and experienced no issues with it whatsoever. I do experience some iss…

I quite like splunk! prefer it over ES but did not use ES as much

Searle is actually an advocate for Biological Naturalism, the chinese room was an argument against computationalism (that the brain works like a computer). Though he admittedly does think the brain is…

(disclaimer: I did not yet read the whole paper) This part stood out to me in their idea of how philosophy views consciousness > A traditional answer to this problem is dualism — that living entiti…

Why do you want an app with bugs?! But on a more serious note, I would appreciate that as well, but it might be harder to take a good picture of a bug by which it is identifiable? I'm always impr…

I agree with you, it is a hard book to grasp everything in it in one go!

May he rest in peace. Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance was one of the first books on philosophy that I read outside of my philosophy curriculum at university and it stayed with me. It's …

Oh, that must have been taken down kind of recently. I believe I used it less than a year ago. :/

Only if you are using a version before Java 8

I assume because such quotes are really hard to read as they don't wrap the text. So on a small screen you end up swiping left and right to read the quote.

Whatsapp is using Erlang on the backend afaik. I'd say Whatsapp was/is quite a successfull app.

When reading the title I interpreted this as being that scientists show signs of old age earlier. (aging faster). Due to stress or whatever it would have been. Quite the misinterpretation there :-)

I have coworkers with whom we do share information about sideprojects. These are oss tools however and as far as I know we all see it as something done for fun and not monitary gain. I don't see …

Are they doing better when people are pirating? The bands that I like, I buy the album from anyway just to support them. But for music that I listen to every now and then - they would not get me to b…

I completely agree. Steam was the reason I stopped pirating. For music, spotify did the trick :-)

After you are done swimming, you are likely to remove the goggles before you completely dried yourself. Water can run from your hair down to your eyes. Also, after swimming for an hour and taking a br…

From what my optician recommended was to indeed blod them dry with a clean towel each time. But, I am not taking care of them that well, I rub them dry. I am not sure if blodding makes a difference.

I have lenses that you can wear for a month but sometimes slightly go over it as well. If they fall on the table - I'll pick them up and rinse them, if they fall on the floor, they're gone.

Yeah.. it's something I ponder every now and then. Been wearing contacts for 10 years, and never really had an issue with them.. But I know that if something was to happen I would feel a lot of r…

I have been wearing lenses for 10 years now and swim regularly with my lenses in. I do wear swimming goggles but of course some water sometimes enters my eye - never had a problem because of it. I had…

How accurate can you be with them when you have to bounce them first though? In an emergency situation, you need to be damn sure that the bullet will hit the target after the bounce. That being said, …

Yeah I upgraded other parts of my machine as well - just did not feel the need to touch the CPU. And actually, I had 8GB of RAM when it started out and I did not change that either. 8GB still runs fin…

Completely agree. I am aware that my CPU is not a blazing fast machine. But I do not really notice the difference all that much (if at all) for the work that I am doing on it. Which mainly consists o…

Well, of course when writing code you do want to run your tools that you are using without any issues. (IntelliJ, Visual Studio, profilers, ..) So it's not just the "pushing text into a file…

The good thing about buying a slightly higher-end CPU is that it will last you for quite a few years. I got my CPU close to its release (2009) and don't feel like I am missing out on anything. Fu…

Thank you!
