robodobo | 4 years ago | on: Ask HN: Has remote work made you move to a new location or consider it?
Moved FROM a big city TO a small suburb in a smaller 'big' city.
PROS:
- Can rent a house > renting a studio - More time outside - More outdoor activities like biking, hiking, etc - Get to have a car
CONS: - Limited food options (esp for vegans) - Less city walking (which was hardly ever less than 10k steps) leading to being very sedentary some days - Have to maintain a car and have no access to public transportation - Less diverse friend groups
OVERALL - Worth it for now

Doesn't Google do 5.6 billion searches a day?
"How many Google searches per day? Google doesn't share its search volume data. However, it's estimated Google processes approximately 63,000 search queries every second, translating to 5.6 billion searches per day and approximately 2 trillion global searches per year."
robodobo | 4 years ago | on: Ask HN: Why is there no good open-source LMS?
Not open source, but Northpass has a pretty robust API so you can white-label your LMS. I've seen it used to power Shopify's academy.

This week on Hidden Brain, we talk with philosopher William Irvine about ancient ideas — backed by modern psychology — that can help us manage disappointment and misfortune.
