Is this the same beeline from 10 years ago? I sort of remember installing it back in middle school and really loving it and helping my ability to read walls of text. I never knew it got popular within the ADHD community or that it was still around.

Another reader helper I liked was the one that flashed words in place but that seemed more like a speed read hack rather than actually comprehending what you read, never used it seriously like BeeLine

I don't have a ton of experience in Bazel, but from what I have experienced with Bazel I think it would be more accurate to say that you configure the dependency graph yourself in Bazel. Then Bazel can determine what to build from scratch and what to take from cache

The is a reason that Santa only comes when the kids are quite and in bed in my house, and it also explains why my dad was always tired in the morning growing up

there's a ton of information missing here, but my simple way is to not really stop living paycheck to paycheck, but instead hide the money from myself before i can spend it. To me this means high contributions to retirement accounts, auto transfers in to brokerage account, and auto transfers into a separate "large spending" account. That way I'm free to spend guilt free anything left in my checking account.

The automation is really the key for me, move the money before I can spend it. But NYC is also an expensive place to live, and I could easily see 110k not being enough to live there. but maybe someone else has more relevant experience

ive heard a few stories of people getting high value (>$1k) shipped and nobody wanting it returned,. I dont get why there is not an exception policy for high value items. Im assuming these kind of "dont ship it back" policies are due to them not wanting to have to support a return infastructure. but if there is a steady supply of high value item returns/mis-shipments I would think it would be worth it. I think i remember reading that its US law that if something is delivered to you, its yours. maybe they dont wanna mess with that?

I guess I would would love to know why they dont want it back

It seems to be a HashiCorp Configuration Language, HashiCorp being the creators/sponsors of terraform (I don't know much about terraform or hashicorp)

That small forum feel was what I appreciated. I thought they all disappeared by now, so it surprised me that the this post was added recently.

The lack of official spec is really holding back markdown, I always find it grating when someone mentions that their site renders "Github Flavored Markdown". It should just be markdown. It would be great if Github didnt have this vendor lock in on markdown

Are these the same drivers that wear Amazon vests, drive Amazon cars and can only deliver for Amazon? Seems like Amazon is doing some legal loophole with "3rd party" companies to get around actually employing these drivers and giving them the full time benefits they are entitled to by law

I'm so tired of this dumb gig economy that isn't long term sustainable.
