I think there was actually a “darknet” version of altavista that was called Astalavista too. If you were sailing the high seas back then, or looking for the anarchists cookbook, for research purposes.

Logseq is my preferred personal knowledge “second brain” tool, but Obsidian might be better in this use-case, as it follows a folder approach.

Both use markdown files under the hood, and op can use something like syncthing or freefilesync to backup the markdown files to other places.

No, you see it’s: “dun-dun-dun-dudu-dun-dun dudu dun-dun-dun-dudu-dun-dun”

I don’t even think any apps that use the API are allowed to use “Spot” in their name.

It cannot begin with “Spot” or be similar to “Spotify” in sound or spelling.

You know, I was very much agreeing to OP, until your comment. You make a convincing point.

I think we can all agree that daylight savings needs to die though.

I think Krashen’s “Natural Approach” is the best way to learn. It focuses on consuming comprehensible input (CI) - listening/reading in the foreign language, and making sure you understand around 80%+. The idea would be to start with very easy stories/sentences, and slowly build that up as your vocabulary grows.

Pimsleur & FSI are good resources. Also, try to watch movies/shows that you already have seen in the target language instead (e.g. Friends, The Office, Simpsons). That way, you already have the context, and it will be easier to comprehend.

You need around 100-200hrs of CI to have a basic understanding of the language (maybe you can’t speak, but you can understand basic interactions in the language). At around 400-600hrs, you’ll be intermediate, and after around 800-1000hrs of CI, you’ll be fluent.

I’m guessing they don’t want to test on any other browsers, so it’s easier just to say that those aren’t supported. Most likely it works on others, you just need to spoof the agent.

Yes, thank you! I hate this constant narrative that back-to-office is always tied to commercial real-estate investments, or that there’s some magical tax incentive.

Usually what you have is: bank lends money to a commercial real estate company that owns the building. Commercial real estate company leases out office space to one or many companies. When those companies reduce or terminate their leases, the commercial real estate company struggles to pay their mortgage and defaults. Commercial real estate loses. Bank loses. And if commercial real estate had pooled investments to fund the building (along with bank loan), then those investors lose as well.

There are some large companies that own their own buildings, but that’s more of an exception.
