I feel like every math class/topic should have a document like this, and it should be covered on day one of the classes. This is WHY you are learning calculus, here are concrete examples of the things you can do with these skills. Not just; "here are some random things out of context that we expect you to know but won't tell you why."


When I went to sign up, they wouldn't allow me to paste my email in, it MUST be typed. so I didn't sign up, and I'll probably never think of this site again.


and the games aren't worth $30 each either

my favorite vim command:

:w !pbcopy

or visual selection, and then :w !pbcopy


People posting their chatgpt conversations remind me a lot of 80s/90s sitcoms that did the boring flashback filler episodes everyone hated.


After a few hours of play, I found the game extremely tedious and gave up. I don't want to build a raft from scratch every time I come to a river, or maybe I would if the building system wasn't so cumbersome to use. Also the, "your weapon breaks every few seconds" gets old real quick.

But It seems like I'm in the minority; people really like games that have a lot of tedium to them.


There is an Auto-build capability you can unlock. Makes the crafting much less tedious.


And?

* People that buy action dolls/funko, keep them in the original packages and don't play with them.

* People that buy NFTs... I have no idea what you do with NFTS. But you don't use them.

* People that bought beanie babies also just keep them in the boxes.


I've gotten to the point where if a site displays a popup, I just close the page. If I had the ability to remove that source from all future searches I would.


I've got addons (ublock) and a Javascript bookmarklet that removes all fixed elements, it's fairly effective.


What happens to sites where a fixed element is part of the UI? Confirmation modals etc.


Things break? I use a similar bookmarklet, but I only ever use it for reading articles which have zero need for any dynamic features. Give me the text, images, and get out of my way.


This sounds great! Can you share the code?


NTHNer but here is the one I use. It's old but it still works a treat: https://alisdair.mcdiarmid.org/kill-sticky-headers/

    (function () { 
      var i, elements = document.querySelectorAll('body *');

      for (i = 0; i < elements.length; i++) {
        if (getComputedStyle(elements[i]).position === 'fixed') {
          elements[i].parentNode.removeChild(elements[i]);
        }
      }
    })();


I rewrote this to be a little more succinct:

    document.querySelectorAll('body *').forEach(tag =>
      getComputedStyle(tag).position === 'fixed' && tag.remove()
    );
- you can use `forEach()` on the NodeList that `querySelectorAll()` returns

- you can use `remove()` directly on the DOM node you want to remove

You can do just that in Kagi. It lets you boost or block sites from search results.


Why not entering a fake email and move on? It's not like many of them do email validation anyways. Something like kgistdaie@gmail.com will do.

At least let them having to handle junk data.


Or the site's own contact email addresses, if you want to be mischievous without potentially spamming an innocent bystander


Good idea. That's what I'm going to use in the future.


This is the very first thing I thought of when he said he wanted to pause ChatGPT research; he was working on his own thing and wanted an unfair advantage to leapfrog them.

All those people pointing to Elon's name on the stop chatgpt petition should feel duped; you people were used as his little puppets, but keep on finding reasons to defend the guy.
