I still remember when they didn't even give me an option to cancel my subscription from the website (because of my location). Instead, I had to contact tech support and ask them to cancel my subscription. IIRC, the first time I tried, it was around 1AM, so no tech support, so I had to wait til the next day, but it was until a couple of days later that I actually did.

This is when I started to dislike Adobe. At least a very good competitor surfaced recently, Affinity, and they have a pretty good Photoshop and Illustrator alternative. I just wish that they would make a Lightroom alternative, which is not on their roadmap.

I'm wondering the same as a 31 year old, I've been cooking and reading about it since adulthood and have never come across that term.

Makes sense, back a few years ago I was so into weightlifting that I would spend around two hours at the gym. And whenever I had to skip or move my workout from my schedule because of an early meeting or an errand I would be very irritable for the rest of the day.

In the description it says “No internet connection required (uses the BLE technology and mDNS)”

I agree. I've been using Telegram for quite a few years, and back then I used to be more of an early adopter and tried to make my social circles to switch to Telegram and one circle did, the tech circle. The other circles didn't care much about the features that Telegram had as much as the contacts they had on Whatsapp.

So now with that amount of people switching trying out Telegram, could mean that at least 2-3 people on a non-tech social circle might be using Telegram which might end up convincing the whole group to switch because of features (polls? utility bots?) or any other benefit they might find.

I'm considering learning more vim besides "esc /insert and :q :w" and this might be a great start.

As an emacs user it's frustrating having to install emacs to do some config editing whereas in my experience vim is included everywhere. e.g. my router.

Is there anything similar for emacs?

I also started using this tool a couple of years back, when it was posted on product hunt, and I found it pretty useful. I can say it had saved me time and frustration whenever I forgot a name or a detail about an acquaintance.

I had completely forgotten about this, in fact I had been using the notes field on the contacts app, but thanks to this post I’m going back to it again.

What are the other top two of your personal stack?

I've worked on freelance projects and also have a couple of project of my own, I wear many hats needed to design and develop a product from ground up, and market it.

Google Talk (client). It was the best IM out there back when MSN started to get bloated with features and plugins like MSN Plus.

I remember that when I switched to GTalk, I still kept MSN for some of my contacts that I still chatted with, but eventually those people switched too and there was nothing left in MSN for me other that contacts with long and overly decorated status messages.

The official GTalk client was simple and lightweight. But then it died and the only official client was within Gmail, which I eventually stopped using because I missed so many messages when I was “online” while it was sitting unnoticed in tab on my browser.

I know GTalk is still alive and there’s WhatsApp, Telegram and such but I guess I miss the synchronous conversations back then, when people would still say “You gonna be online tonight? Let’s talk about it there”

It was the best way for me until most of the sources I used to follow started to only put the description of the post or article and a “read more” link forcing you open a browser to read it. I know most rss clients now have a built-in browser but it was better when you could read the content right in the client without those intrusive ads or layout.

Happy new year from Guatemala

1. I started to cook to save cash on "healthy" food. "Healthy" and high in protein food tend to be expensive, and I was just starting to take my daily macros on fitness more seriously. After spending time on cooking, I learned to enjoy cooking, is like crafting food.

2. I don't usually plan my meals, but there are times I find out about a new recipe I want to try but have to wait till the weekend to buy the ingredients at the supermarket.

3. "Healthy" and high in protein meals or desserts. Or just something I feel like trying out, like Thai food.

4. I just try to reach my daily grams of protein per lbs of bodyweight intake, and try to keep my carbs moderate.

5. Tip #1. Before starting to cook, plan out what to do first to save time. Start with the stuff you have to wait later on: e.g.: prepare and start boiling the chicken first, and while it's cooking, proceed to cut the veggies.

Tip #2. Start washing your dishes while are waiting for something to cook.

Tip #3. Cook in bulk to save time and money. I usually cook enough food for 2 or 3 days, prepare the extra portions in containers and leave them on the fridge.

Tip #4. Learn to taste your food and experiment, don't just follow the recipe. After cooking something new for the first time, taste it, learn to identify what is missing or if there is too much of anything.

That happened to me too. I was just wondering why LogMeIn would acquire Medium, and why Medium would take the offer.

No, it's spanish. Just spotted one mistake, would you care to correct what I wrote? BTW, there's no way to edit my comment here on HN right?

As someone was currently suffering of depression, this is going to help me. Nice article and linked resources.
