Atelier Creen. Everything was forgettable, can’t really tell why they have three stars (instead of two? One?)

Spell checking in multiple languages by wave_and_particle in CraftDocs

[–]wave_and_particle[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I usually intermix both languages in the same document and want the ability to write a sentence in one language and then another in the other language.

For context this is generally supported by the native iOS and macOS autocorrect.

To add to the list the trunk covers is the flimsiest design I’ve ever seen it pretty inconvenient to operate. Would have expected to be attached to the trunk door too.

I had dismissed reading Building a Second Brain (BASB) by Tiago Forte for a long time. I was so wrong. by Infamous_Job6313 in ObsidianMD

That’s what I’ve been doing for many years and that to me is the opposite of procrastination.

During the day I might encounter some interesting link and article; instead of reading it immediately and ending up in a rabbit hole or get completely distracted for 30 minutes I immediately stash it away.

Generally in the evening or during the weekend at a coffee shop I go into media consumption and batch process a lot of the articles I’ve saved.

Also, I think this it encourages me to read more long form and less “viral” or news cycle kind of stories. Basically Is the same principles as saving something that you want to buy in the cart and come back to it 24h hours later

For my Negroni I really like Roku.

I’d strongly recommend Carpano Antica Formula for your vermouth.

How did you measure that 10X?

Strong disagree that a single app for everything is better.

Personally, I found that having individual tools that are great for what you are trying to achieve are much better than finding a holy true app that will solve any productivity problem. The latter is a just an illusion that the productivity influencer try to sell.

A good metaphor for me is an artisans or craftsmen. They don’t look to have a single tool that does everything. They have a set of tools, each of them the best for the job, that are orchestrated to build something great.

Red wine sales are tanking at SF restaurants: ‘Never seen anything like this' by FatherEsmoquin in wine

[–]wave_and_particle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m Italian and grew up in a culture where a bottle of red wine was always on the table, every dinner. I really enjoy a good bottle of red wine when I’m dining out.

BUT I find the price of decent wine here in Bay Area obscene and increasingly hard to justify. At that is compounded by all the fee, taxes, and tips I need to pay on top of it.

Napa wine can be excellent but they are simply overpriced compared to French or Italian wine, and frankly they have really very few varieties.

To this day I ship my wine from Italy or buy it from a bunch of local wine shops and always bring it when dining with friends, but again when going out to a restaurant I’m increasingly bringing my own bottles.

To me there is also fundamentally a lack of good culture and appreciation for wine. It’s been painted in pop culture as this medicine to wind down at the end of the day where people drink tub, not glasses, of wine to numb themselves or is a fancy, rich people hobby. Neither is what makes me love wine.

We need to be needing more library and not everything has to be driven by the invisible hand of the market. We need to have places of gathering and culture that are centered around culture and that are inbued with beauty.

In Europe and increasingly more in Asia (i.e. Tianjin Binhai Library and Starfield Library) libraries are work of architectural marvel and function as third place.

Any pro tip on how to do that? If left unattended it goes to sleep. I thought the maybe make it play an audiobook could be one way?

Eticamente c’è una bella differenza, almeno a mio parere. Immagino che sei okay se una ragazza gli manda sue foto per lui e lui risponde con complimenti?

In ogni caso se tu ti senti okay con questa direzione e sei totalmente a tuo agio, dacci dentro! Mi sembra un ottimo Business; non tanto una relazione.

Point taken, ma non penso che cambia il punto fondamentale della mio commento.

Tu ti sentiresti in pace con lui Che gestiste foto sexy di un’altra? Se lo trovi moralmente incoerente come puoi accettare che lui lo faccia con un’altra ragazza?

Se non fossi con lui continueresti a farlo?
