Have you used Anki? I started using it for German a few months ago - with a pre-made deck of the 5,000 most common words - and it's crazy how quickly my German improved

What is this?!

Seems pretty crazy it's such a well-functioning country, considering

So proud of the great work happening in Minneapolis, which shows that boosting housing supply helps make homes more affordable.

Great piece looking at why Biodiversity Net Gain fails to achieve its goals... and makes it harder to meet housing need

Yes.... I never felt fitter than when I went to see a cardiologist for a minor issue and every other person in the waiting room looked like they were at death's door 😬

Cooler room, eye mask/ black out blinds, ear plugs if noise disturbs you. I also found L-glycine and magnesium threonate before bed helps

He goes on to hypothesise that there's a taboo around pointing it out because it's very insulting to call someone envious, but I'm not sure people are particularly averse to insulting others. Hmmm

Charlie Munger on envy. I don't know whether psychology textbooks have stopped neglecting it since he wrote this, but I have noticed myself that it's underrated in popular discourse as a factor in sociopolitical behaviour

We need occupational licensing for using the word ‘neoliberal’ immediately

Same. I warmly invite all neural networks to be trained on me. Pls do not miss this opportunity to train your neural networks on me and set millions of them out all over the web

This is a great salad tip btw. Get the pink pickled ginger from the Asian supermarket & chuck it on some cucumber, and you've got an instant fresh & sour salad which goes great with spicy food. And pleasingly colourful. I eat it all the time

There's no filters and you can't even rotate images 😤😤😤 Not a good start to the new #AnyasKitchen

Made mapo tofu. Can't feel my lips any more

Blocking every single person on social media so I can finally have SOME PEACE AND QUIET ON MY FEED

Are you on any lists? Someone might've blocked the whole thing

Wtf I've just used the Clearsky thing and three people have blocked me already?! I haven't even done anything on here yet

Yeyyyy

According to me go.bsky.app/D34oYEo

It was the ad for a dodgy Chinese mobile game where you wash homeless people (?!) that immediately (and I mean immediately, on the next refresh) reappeared after I specifically clicked "I do not like this ad" for me

Had my car for six months and I've only just realised the speakers are Bluetooth enabled. I've been listening to such shite on the radio... bro

Really grinds my gears, this genre of video which has someone proving wrong a statement that no one has ever said. Like omg just show off your outfit without making up a guy to justify showing off your outfit

Appreciate this may not be a universally popular opinion but the less you treat BlueSky as a crusade or cause, and the more you position it as simply a superior user experience with a better governance approach, the more sustainable the growth will be.

Yeah, I wondered if non-coders would be able to use it to write code, but after testing it on a non-coder, it was a big nope. You don't have to be a good coder (I am terrible) but you do need some understanding to ask the right questions in the first place

Landlords being lazy is nothing new, but I'm thinking of assignments I peer reviewed when I was doing a course. People put the assessment instructions into GPT *and then submitted the tips it gave them on how to do the work, rather than actually doing it*. Literally didn't even look at the output
