HTML doesn’t “run”. It’s not a scripting language, it’s a markup language. All it does is mark sections of the document for the browser to display.

CSS is the rules for how to display the marked-up document. Even when CSS is not defined for a document, the default stylesheet of the browser is used. It’s not an interpreted language.

well, a markup language, not necessarily hypertext markup language

No dice, looking at the scores on recent comments I’ve made is how I microdose dopamine.

I used to not use a case, because I had a ruggedized hiking phone that didn’t need one.

I’ve donated information but never money.

I tend to think the the obligation to action falls more heavily on the privileged. Those who aren’t marginalized have a duty to use their position to correct the injustices.

Every time I see that screenshot it hits so hard.

sweeping afterwards was always part of the job

cleaning the litterbox is actually less unpleasant:

• doesn’t have to happen at a specific time

• if I fuck it up, it doesn’t spill over into other tasks

• it’s an act of service towards someone else and thus easier to motivate me than something that’s for myself

The price of meat is currently artificially lowered by several factors, including government subsidies and lax regulations. Correcting that would be good for everyone, even if it made meat a “sometimes” food for everyone but the rich.

I used Noom, got a pretty good trial price and then extended it.

“Dead” is an adjective, modifying the antecedent of “he”, not an adverb modifying “is”.

Contrast “he is well”, where “well” modifies “is” as an adverb vs. “he is good” where “good” is an adjective modifying “he”. There’s no grammatic signifier which is which beyond the modifying word itself, so you need to see whether it’s in adverb form or adjective form.

“he died” describes an action

“he was dead” describes a condition / state / quality

I don’t notice body signals when I hyperfocus, so if I eat a good breakfast on my days off, and don’t keep s ack food around, I might go all the way to bedtime without another meal. I think that’s called intermittent fasting?

But fr, the main thing that helped me was accountability. I used one of those paid apps that turn tracking and nutrition into a group activity and partially gamify it. I got lucky with a good coach and a good group but it did help. Just knowing that someone was looking over my shoulder to make sure I did the food logging made it easier to remember to do. And the “numbers go bigger” part of my brain turned out to like “numbers go smaller”, so the gamification helped too.

muhummara - it’s a dip, Syrian in origin, made from roasted red peppers enriched with walnut paste and sweetened with pomegranate molasses

it’s amazing on fresh bread

I put some on a pita for my seven-year-old and told him it was pizza, he devoured it and asked for more

Trust to be accurate or trust to be unbiased? I trust the hyperlocal paper to be unbiased but the articles are all over the place. I trust most large publications to be accurate but with their articles and editorials in line with the paper’s overall bias.
