If you are working at an AI company, here's how you can sabotage Anubis development as easily and quickly as possible. So first is quit your job, second is work for Square Enix, and third is make absolute banger stuff for Final Fantasy XIV. That’s how you can sabotage this the best.
Agree it's dependent on your personal values and goals. I prefer environmental causes and also try to help smaller local animal rescues because they're often run on shoestring budgets so a little goes a long way, whereas bigger non-profits have access to more resources.
Would recommend researching whatever you end up choosing.Many charities spend a lot of money on executive pay or marketing vs. core programs. I'll usually check annual reports for budgets or see if they're on Charity Navigator.
Yeah this has been the most reliable method for me. They'll usually tout endorsements and those folks are usually easier to get a read on. Otherwise, try to find news stories or blue voter guides that mention them.
Air flow was key. Tried to get a good cross breeze from one end of the house to the other (unless the breeze is also hot). At night, we'd use a box fan in the window or door to get all the hot air out. If you can block your exterior walls/windows from getting direct sunlight, that should help. Curtains work (or you could also just place objects or plants in front to block the sunlight). Alternatively, you could install one of those large roll up sun shades for a more permanent solution. Did that for a few windows that get a lot of sun and made a big difference.
From personal experience, the following made a difference (but some will have a lot higher cost):
Replacing the insulation in the roof/attic. You could also add radiant barriers, but insulation is probably a better bang for your buck.
Insulating the exterior walls (drill and fill). Our walls used to be hot to the touch in the summer before this.
Double pane windows
Seal any air gaps or holes. Expanding foam is pretty good at this.
From what others have told me:
Installing a whole house attic fan to evacuate hot air at the end of the day. My neighbor did this and swears by it.
Painting your house a lighter color. Can't say how effective but makes sense intuitively.
Stuff that only sort of worked:
Swamp coolers. Works ok in a pinch, but your house will feel humid like the tropics. Would personally skip.
Portable AC. The exhaust hose gets hot so it's not as efficient as an external AC or window unit. But it could help if you're directly in front of the cold air vent.
I might try this. Normally would just pipe history into grep to search or scroll till I found the right command. Also smite is a great name for that function.
Made a big difference honestly. Used to work in an office where I sat for 8hrs a day and my back/legs would go numb after awhile. Went all in on an ergo set up during COVID. Sit-stand desk, split keyboard, vertical mouse, etc. I figure if I use them more than 40 hrs a week and they prevent some form of RSI or back-pain, it's worth it.
Also, the other half of the equation is stretching, yoga, and walking. If I have to wait 5 min for something to run, I'll do a quick stretch while waiting.
High Sierra shower heads are awesome. Installed them in each of our bathrooms. Feels like a rain shower, with more pressure then our previous stock shower head while still saving water. Win-win. They also manufacture them in small town in the foothills of the Sierra mountains which is a pretty cool fact.
Yeah they can improve their UX all they want but since their co-founder is part of DOGE and wants to mess with social security, it makes choosing alternatives easier.
Congrats! Just watched the trailer and the game looks and sounds awesome. As someone who has a lot of half-finished projects, I'm impressed you stuck with it for 8 years and got it across the finish line, that must be a great feeling.
+1 for Shark. Bought one several years ago without thinking much about it. It still works just as well as when I got it despite handling a pretty heavy workload. My dog sheds profusely and tracks in stuff from the yard constantly and we also use it on the cars.
Yep, their site is a marvel of organization and refreshing in how minimalist it has remained. These days it seems every e-commerce site hits you with email sign up pop-ups, sales banners, etc.
Decent at some and a beginner at others. Tbh, I have more hobbies than time to practice and really get good at all of them. So progress is slow, but I enjoy each one of them and don't want to give up any just yet. Guess I'm taking the scenic route to mastery, maybe by the time I retire I'll be really cooking. And if not, I still would consider it time well spent.
And energy. And water. And land. The list goes on and on.
