Most of the things I wrote in Rust have less than 5 dependencies. Those 5 dependencies then depend on 20 other dependencies each. Those 20 dependencies have 2-3 other dependencies. And so on…

I have headphones on everywhere I go. If I’m outside I have them on, while I’m doing work in the office I have them on, when I’m doing sport I have them on. When I don’t have them on, I’m usually at home and I’m playing stuff via speakers.

I’m not playing stuff only when I’m out with friends, of course.

To be honest I think it’s one of the reasons why I feel very good and comfortable being on my own alone. But I definitely agree that there might be some kind of addiction in all of this.

> but when every moment alone is filled with someone else's words and thoughts, you stop having any of your own

I don’t necessarily agree with this, especially because I think about the thing that is being discussed and agree/disagree for different reasons. I might argue that podcast give you a reason to think about “unusual” things sometimes?

You don’t need a TCP connection for everything.

If you’re optimizing for that you can consider client-side caching which you can instruct using cache headers that every browser support. That usually reduces heavy hitters by a lot, even if you set the browser TTL to 1 minute which is fine for most of the scenarios.

You would need to put your number in a special register to opt-out of these calls.

I don't know if this ever worked or not, but giving your number to government feels odd to me so I never signed up. It's a lot more simple to just outright block unknown callers.

Every time I visit a place I get the impression that people are happier, but it's just an impression based on something you notice and experience for a very short amount of time. You'll see happy and desperate people anywhere, I don't think it has to do with the place.

> Actually, I think I say that about everywhere I travel.

That's it.

Used to drink one in the morning and one immediately after lunch. Couldn’t really tell the difference in sleep quality and to be fair I’m waking up more frequently in the past 2 weeks, but I guess that has to do more with heat than anything else.

Listened to many podcasts trying to learn more about this and they all seem to argue that it’s actually more important when you drink coffee. If you get your last coffee right after lunch your body will have almost no caffeine circulating in the system by the end of the day and that will make you sleep better.

I can already see two issues with these devices:

- They can’t reliably identify the actual driver. Criminals might simply ask someone else to blow into the device.

- With every car equipped with this safety feature, people might assume everyone driving isn’t drunk.

I’m not sure. It seems like this will only add extra hassle for law-abiding citizens while those for whom it was designed will likely find workarounds.
