How to Motivate Yourself to Do a Thing You Don't Want to Do

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-20 23:25:24

We have an air bike in our basement. If you are unfamiliar with air bikes, they are similar to stationary bikes with foot pedals but also have handles you push and pull with your arms. It uses air resistance, so the harder you pedal and move your arms, the higher the resistance. It’s also known as an assault bike. 😬 Which is apt, because it’s a butt-kicker of a workout. I use it about once a week, more frequently in the winter when it’s too cold to run, and less often in the summer when I can

The new 14-inch Wacom One ups the display size, but not the price

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-21 03:23:22

Wacom has announced its latest beginner-friendly graphics tablet, the Wacom One 14. The obvious upgrade from its 2023 predecessor is a larger 14-inch IPS display, which gives digital artists a bit of extra space for their sketching. The bezels have been trimmed down to accommodate the bigger canvas, while keeping the design thin and compact enough to easily throw the Wacom One in a backpack. The 1920 x 1080 HD display’s textured surface is supposed to replicate the feeling of drawing on paper,

8 Foods You Eat Daily That You Didn't Know Are Probably Filled With Microplastics

Whether it's in food storage or kitchen tools, microplastics are everywhere in our kitchens -- and, unfortunately, that includes in the food we eat. In fact, it's been estimated that Americans consume between 39,000 and 52,000 microplastic particles annually. They come from our environment, food packaging or additives that make their way into our diets.

4 Things You Should Never Cook in a Nonstick Pan, According to an Expert

Nonstick cookware has its place in the kitchen, but its limitations should keep it from being your everyday pan.

Some foods can damage the surface of your nonstick skillet, leading to a shorter lifespan or the release of nonstick materials into your food.

Sure, it’s easy to argue for the importance of spending on science by pointing out that many of today’s most useful technologies had their origins in government-funded R&D. The internet, CRISPR, GPS—the list goes on and on. All true. But this argument ignores all the technologies that received millions in government funding and haven’t gone anywhere—at least not yet.

I think ARC-AGI is still the most important benchmark we have today. It’s surprising that LLMs can win the math olympiad but struggle with simple puzzles that humans can solve easily.

Ozempic May Be Less Effective for Emotional Eaters, Study Suggests

People’s motivations to overeat may play a role in this, according to a new study.
