Probably iOS. I use AdGuard and sideload a YouTube tweak to dodge most of the ads on my browsing experience

I have a culinary joke, but I’m still cooking

Personally, I find American candy way too sweet. As in one full-sized bar of any chocolate candy is disgustingly sweet, and makes me feel unwell if I get anywhere close to finishing a bar

I am American btw, and I grew up eating this stuff for a few weeks after Halloween, but then my tastebuds developed and my answer to that question is to “just eat a couple of pieces a day”

If you want an actual answer, I’d consider trying to remove willpower from the equation and donate or throw away a majority of the candy you have. If you still want to keep candy, then putting it in inconvenient places might make it easier to eat less. Think like keeping it on the opposite side of your residence where you would usually lounge/mindlessly snack and only eating it in a designated area.

You can also try to buy one of those kSafes to prevent yourself from eating it all too. The idea isn’t to depend on your current willpower to decide for you, but rather the rational thought of your past self to allot yourself a certain amount.

It’s like a cheat day, if you designate a day where you can pig out, it’s easier to maintain a well-balanced diet outside of the chest day

This is a good move for wiki maintainers and users. Fandom needs to lose their stranglehold over the wiki farm “market”. Info like this shouldn’t be polluted and bloated with advertisements and it shouldn’t be able to be modified by the whims of Fandom either.

As long as you follow the rules of the road, I’m cool with it. The problems I have are with scooter users who ride against traffic

And personally I wouldn’t want you to go on the sidewalk. I’d rather you stay the course and let me pass as it is a bit more predictable that way

It is kind of a new thing, but there has been more activity within recent years for employees at tech companies to unionize. Most notable would probably be NPR, Alphabet, and NYT

If I remember correctly, a lot of oxygen comes from algae, and this is due to photosynthesis. There are startups out there trying to do CO2 capture with algae

I think there is only so much 1 person can do to offset the emissions for billions of people (really 100s of companies). One of the more important things you can do at a larger scale is to contribute to movements and vote

LK-99 is a room temperature superconductor. It’s a big deal, because it means that energy can be transferred with 0 loss and it doesn’t require loads of cooling to maintain that property (unlike “traditional superconductors” that need liquid nitrogen and other cooling to have that property). An analogy would be like if you got paid all of your paycheck all the time instead of having taxes taken out. The money you get paid is energy and the loss is taxes

There’s controversy that LK-99 can’t be replicated

Going over to the programming side, sometimes you’ll work on a feature and when others go test it, it doesn’t work. A common excuse heard is “well, it works on my machine”. Docker containers solve that problem by essentially (but not really) making a copy of “my machine” and letting people run the program/feature on that copy

So the joke is, if the korean researchers were able to create it in their lab environment (their machine), why don’t they just make a copy of their lab and let others use it

this is a very gross oversimplification, so feel free to suggest any corrections

My work allows us to put PRs on the other teams repos, i.e. no forking needed. Except it requires access being granted to write to the repo. So some people fork and it results in a bunch of stray repos sitting out there. This results in search results being clogged up, and it’s awful playing whack-a-mole figuring out which is the true original repo

When I applied, I never got a notification that it got approved, but I could post and comment on that instance. So you might have been in a similar situation as me or the admins are still dealing with a large influx of people
