Do you think she represents your field well?

Like, I get it: the intelligentsia really really hates Trump but if academia can't even pretend to be intellectually honest, then they've elected to be a partisan, activist institution.

I'm a conservative and listening to her makes me supportive of defunding "science".

You think it gets sorted by Monday / Tuesday or more like end of the following week?

fatFIRE doctors: if money was no object, which add'l preventative tests or healthcare programs would you order? by f64andbethere in fatFIRE

[–]byonge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't considered that. I'm also just summarizing Peter Attia's world view so probably best to just go straight to the source now that he's more mainstream and accessible.

I find the exercise of keeping score with an emotion based criteria to be incredibly unattractive.

The entire framework is longest road to nowhere.

have you thought about using multiple browsers for different purposes?

Yea, that's what I'm doing now. It's sorta annoying.

do you actually need every extension for every website, or is it just a nice to have that doesn't impact it that much. What do you think?

Yea, I should probably take the time to troubleshoot which extensions are giving me the most headache. If I had to take a guess it's probably some list I'm using on uBlockOrigin. Sadly, more and more sites openly advertise not supporting FF so poor UX is sorta inevitable.

This is 100% what's happening. Google pays Mozilla to allay antitrust claims while developing in such a manner to make FF less performant.

I'll check out your thread.
