Asta la vista

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.

Anyone know of a good wiki/knowledge base software that is portable?

I have a bookstack instance self-hosted and I quick like the program and workflow. I like having ‘books’ of information to separate/organize my information. It feels very much like folder heirarchy to me, and while that has its issues, I prefer it. Being able to add tags to pages helps alleviate some of those issues and...

kambusha ,

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.

When you're writing a song, how do you know it isn't just a song you've heard before but don't recognise?

Why are people so antsy to see others in person?

I WFH, every year one of the goals that the rest of the team decides is that it’s “so great” to see each other in person. The past few years haven’t worked out but one did. I spent hours in a couple of airports, the huge expense for the company, I spent days away from my family, and for what? So you could look me in my...

kambusha ,

Yep, well put. I love working remotely, but would appreciate once/twice a year having an off-site to get to know some people in the company on a more human level, or so I know who has a dog, so they can send me pics. As you said, during work hours it’s hard to get away from the transactional nature of the conversation.

The other thing I’m always worried about, is when grads join the company. A lot are coming from an environment where they’ve been interacting in person on a daily basis, and now their only interaction is online.

Are there artisticly vivid, custom Excel skins?

Today at work my team rolled our eyes at the latest uttering of “This is a living, breathing document.” I then joked that maybe we could give the spreadsheet some warts and some hair. That got me thinking - are there skins/mods for Excel that are cartoony and ridiculous? A cursory web search only turns up things that look...

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.

Where are the good political songs? (piped.video)

I feel like there are lots of parallels between the eighties and now (recession/inflation, yuppies/inequality, skin-heads/fascists, hot-cold wars etc.) but there used to be protest music! Where is that stuff now? Music that’s intelligent and outraged - like we should be!...

How can i learn hindi in under a month ?

I am planning to go to india for studies (and maybe job ) but to do that i have to pass an exam . Don’t get me wrong i am not excepting to ace the test by studying under a month ( while studying a whole lot of other subjects too ) I just want to (barely) pass . And i suppose living there would require hindi aswell because most...

kambusha ,

If the test is standardized, then I’m assuming test prep already exists for it. Your goal should be to pass the test, not to learn Hindi, because one month is wayyyyy too short to learn a language. You might be able to pick up the alphabet, and some common phrases within a month.

Once you’ve passed the test, you can focus on learning Hindi. If you study 4-6hrs a day, then I reckon you could be intermediate in about 6-12mos.

I’m assuming the numbers must include retail stores purchasing the product to sell to their customers too? Or are these direct to consumer numbers only?

kambusha ,

Thing is, language is constantly changing, so if enough people say it wrong, it makes it correct over time.

As an example, people have been using nauseous incorrectly for so long, that it’s now correct again.

If you like horror, I find Stephen King books pretty easy to read. The Mr Mercedes books are worth a read. Then there’s always the show to compare to. Although I guess pretty much every King book has a movie or show.

Grocery shopping apps

I am currently using Bring! with my wife to organize our grocery shopping. I am looking for a self hosted alternative.

I like that Grocy also includes meal planning although the whole inventory management is too much for us. What I...

I’ve seen decathlon employ this in their stores as well. Think they’re primarily in Europe.

It’s definitely weird the first time you do it, but I’m assuming they’re using RFID technology, so each product has a little microchip in its price tag.
