if you take it right before bed it'll make you dreams loads and sleep haaard, if you can get to sleep; the restless legs are a motherfucker.

you can add search filters to the search bar in youtube.

e.g this will return videos published in that time range with a duration longer than 2m

cat videos after:2014-01-01 before:2014-12-31 >2m

[edit] - the duration doesn't remove shorts I think there's just no shorts published in that time range.

As long as they're not panting, I think it's generally not cannibalism.

is there any particular reason why just here?

A £3000 laptop doesn't come with a fucking charger. It's £99 extra for the one that came with the m4's. thanks a lot Apple, the enshitification is real!

ugh the fucking noise. My house backs onto a road that's only really busy in rush hours. It's the mopeds and trash-can exhausts that are the pain, the actual traffic isn't that noisy. yeah, exhaust sound is fun but not on your corsa; save it for the race-track. At least the drug dealers are respectful and ride electric bikes. As much as we're heading to a police state, might almost be worth it if they regulated vehicle noise.

i have a Lab/Staffie mix and he has insane retriever drive when we get the tennis ball launcher out. pupils dilate and nothing else matters, to the point that we had to ban launcher because he kept loosing his thumb claws from sliding on the grass when the ground is too hard. Before we banned it his muscles were massive, rippling shoulders etc. When we had his (non-tennis) balls removed he developed insane food drive, the vet said this was common, to the point he'll raid the kitchen at night if we don't lock it down. The boy is build to do 1 of 2 things, eat or fetch!

Totally agree. It takes a while to "load" the project but then once it's loaded moving around a large codebase is a breeze but as soon at the code changes broaden and I slow right down cos I have to rebuild the map with the new additions. only way i can describe it: it's like loading google/apple maps and instead of it showing a low detail view with only the big roads displayed i'm loading the entire super details map, it takes a while but once it's loaded there's 0 lag.

also it's actually reassuring knowing someone else is similar, no-one in my life seems to work the same.

I think of myself as a slow thinker and feel the same as many other comments on this post but I always but this down to being a visual mind and having to draw/picture everything to think it. So in my experience slow thinking is topic dependant; maths, conversations, even code are slow because I have to draw it in my head and it takes time. But give me a spatial/visual problem, like coming up with a plan for garden landscaping, organising room layouts or will this object fit in this space and it takes like 1 micro-second. it's weird.

really cool idea. rightmove is awful for searching for houses. I basically can't filter by features at all. though their map search feature is cool cos i might not want to search in an entire county. though i get your probs mvp-ing. really slick though

also there are no houses for Cheshire on your site. replication steps: type cheshire in the search bar and click the suggestion (Cheshire, UK) = 0 results.

I just pre-ordered the m4 pro. upgrading from a late 2013 mbp with a battery that would probably void my home insurance if they found out.

can't justify the constant upgrade when it doesn't make me money (work provide one). very excited about the new one though

I my opinion this example should be on the website to support your code snippets. the top of the page should tell me what problem your solving for me rather than what features the product has. this post does it perfectly but without reading through this thread i'd still be struggling to understand why i should use the product.

I hope that didn't come across mean. the product looks really cool. congrats on the launch :)
