That's really cool! I only just started playing around with steno (and am also very slow). But I find the process of learning very exciting! Where did you get the keyboard designs from?

Does caffeine help individuals with ADHD in sleeping in some way?

I don't like starting my drive on a low-note of backing up out from a parking spot, anxious I will accidentally scrape a vehicle or bonk the curb or whatever may it be. Ending the drive by backing into the parking space means next time I leave I'll start by driving forward to pull out.

It makes it easier to divvy up into groups: halves, thirds, quarters, sixths (vs. just halves and fifths). Makes doing math easier in the head (fewer digits, checking for divisibility are the big ones).

Some info (warning: they are trying to convince you it is better than decimal, so you are not going to get a balanced argument there): https://dozenal.org/drupal/sites_bck/default/files/DSA-DozenalFAQs_0.pdf

I'm not sure exactly what it was called but any time you took a photo with a Note8, it was always taking photos from right before to right after the photo. This resulted in much fewer garbage photos because a few frames before or after the shutter was pressed would be a better photo, one that is not blurry! Now instead of a useless photo, I would have at least something workable. I have not seen that on any other phone with this feature, including my current one.

I wonder if an instance could only allow votes by users who are part of instances that require email verification or some other verification method. I would imagine that would heavily help reduce vote manipulation on that particular instance.

I started using the first letter of the thing I am iterating over. This is particularly helpful with nested loops so I can easily remember which index variable corresponds to which thing.

Completely agree, that's something I noticed as well. Seems like an apples-to-oranges comparison.

How much salt would you recommend for a normal sized pot?

Oh I think I am encountering a related issue now. If I hold the mouse down to highlight text for a longer period of time (say, 10 seconds), it just randomly unhighlights most of the text and stops highlighting any more text. It seemed to only happen when selecting text across multiple posts. Though it is inconsistent, sometimes happening right away, other times it looks like it doesn't happen at all. I wonder if it has something to do with Javascript updating the posts maybe?> ere. I

I'm not noticing anything weird. What do you mean selecting text is weird?
