Probably recency bias, media coverage, and because for the resources it uses (with any source of energy), it’s hard to see it as a better alternative to what exists currently

Agriculture, fossil fuels, transportation and manufacturing for single use products are some of the highest order problems to me.

I saw this video, which illustrates what you pretty much stated:

I actually wish I got the JnJ vaccine (I got the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine last week).

Seems like you're really trying to defend your point in the comments, but I'd say like you do in other areas of art and design: a portfolio

I agree. There’s a lot of nuance in color palettes that can lead to changes that are hard to describe.

There’s also something to be said about an expert’s ability to discern the finer details of one version over other versions of the same thing.

The narrative of what's happening has evolved too.

It wasn't until retail investors were blocked from buying did people perceive it as a class war. Even on HN, the bigger news is about Robinhood and other firms and how they handled the situation.

At this point, anyone still buying and holding is doing so to make a statement about showing it to the suits, which as you said is going to end up poorly.

I'm also fascinated that the number of subscribers to wsb grew from 1.8M to 4.9M in two days and how they're handling it.

The point of the break period is to give yourself time away from your work so by nature I'm not sure how 'productive' you want it to be because any other productive activity requires focus. If you want to avoid moving pictures during your break, the optimization of the time doesn't have to be productive:

- go for a walk (even if its only within your work area)

- talk if you're around someone who also needs a break)

- organize your time/ideas for your next task

- water your plants (if you have any)

- play with your dog/cat (if you have any)

- stretching or some other short spurt of physical activity

- work on a puzzle

- chess

- drawing

- meditate

- nap

I deleted the Instagram app from my phone a while back, but still was stuck browsing on the web version.

More recently, I've had issues logging in via mobile browser so that's helped as another blocker.

Thanks for sharing this.

Given that the coral microbiome has a complex composition, I'd be curious to see how this could offer consistency in measuring coral health across different species.

Sorry - it worked for me. I'll opt for an archive.is link next time.

If 'wanting' and 'liking' can be dissociated, what are the methods for changing the stimulus that results in the 'wanting'?
