  • Weighting every day at the same time. Using a smart weight that logs the measurements. Using software that smoothens out the readings, so you don't stress about day to day changes. Don't want to advertise, but combination of Withings scale and trendweight website works great for me. And ultimately, combination of fasting and exercise is ideal for me. Every calorie spent and every calorie not eaten helps.

  • This is very good strategy. Like the infamous "fake it till you make it". But actually vocalizing it makes it even more powerful.

    If anyone remembers the movie Closer from 2004, there's a scene where Clive Owen's character refuses a cigarette while almost failing at it. He settles it with a phrase: "I've given up.". You can see he is not completely sure about that, but now that he said it out loud, he made it true.

  • Good question. Commits are easy - they are part of git core functionalities so are included in every copy of the repository (for example developers' local copies) but github specific contents like comments, issues, PRs..?

  • Oh, for fuck's sake. We just bought our first Garmin watches two months ago. I felt uneasy about our new relationship with yet another american corporation, but we loved the watches and the app... And now what?

    Question: Looking for a gif/video - programmer's life played by handyman

    update: this is the clip: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AbSehcT19u0 Many thanks to @Krill.

    Good day everyone! A long time ago, while working as a full-time programmer, I saw a short funny clip that I could totally identify with and that brilliantly described what daily frustrations programmes face in a way that non-programmers could understand. Description below. Thing is, I was unable to find it since and it frustrates me to no end and is hampering my ability to describe programming work to other people. Though I no longer program for a living, so I should not care. Anyway.

    Video description (vague, from failing memory): A handyman reaches for his equipment but finds out it is not plugged in, so he reaches for the plug, only to find it broken. He proceeds to get the replacement / fix from the drawer but its handle breaks and stays in his hand. Bang, final title: the daily life of a programmer.

    Or something like that. Please help.
