It’s “faint of heart”.

Ah, I see. I just skimmed and saw that Eric had said “file names” but I see now it’s for paths. That makes more sense.

I have no doubt that this is of use to someone, but I’m having difficulty coming up with any really good uses for it off the top of my head. Anybody have a use case scenario they’d like to share?

You might want to glance at the big picture because it can help you prioritize the small tasks a little and anticipate hold-ups etcetera. Also, in some situations things can unfold in different ways, meaning some of the small tasks you’ve identified as needing completion will end up being unnecessary, so if you can…

For real victims of PTSD there is evidence that suggests that avoidance of triggers can actually prolong the effects of the trauma and retard recovery, so even in those cases it’s looking like trigger warnings may not be such a great idea.

If you’re only showering often enough to keep yourself from getting sick you’re doing it wrong.

To be fair, Ms. Rapp is the one accused of having pro-paedophile attitudes. That is one of the main complaints about her.

I keep a Google Docs document on the bookmarks bar for this exact purpose. Aside from using the new tab button (or Ctrl+T) to open the document instead of using a bookmark, are there any other differences or advantages I’m not spotting?

The Dropbox app by itself is almost as good. Unlike this app, it does allow you to stream and remembers your place. I use it for audiobooks and other long audio files almost every day. I do wish they’d add the ability to use bookmarks, but that’s not quite enough added functionality to tempt me to switch over, since…

This is a sentiment I can agree with.

This is not a criticism as I have used and enjoyed many egg-related tips on Lifehacker and I see that eggs are a very “hackable” basic food, but it is still somewhat amusing to see the sheer volume of egg-related posts on Lifehacker. There are almost enough to start a separate sub-blog dedicated solely to eggs.

Again, I think most women are smart enough to work out these fairly obvious exceptions to the advice themselves, but let’s consider your suggestion.

There is, I suppose, a subset of women who have no interest in having a baby, drink alcohol, have unprotected sex and would be willing to have an abortion to end any pregnancy that would result from that unprotected sex. It is true that the CDC’s advice does not seem to address that particular group, but I’m not sure…

Right. Because drunk women never fight each other.

Nobody is being ordered to stop drinking. It’s just information and cautious advice. Obviously it’s up to the individual to decide what to do with the information. You have to weigh the potential risk to your unborn child against the fun of drinking.

The worst thing I see about the infographic is that, amongst the direct negative physical effects that can possibly result from drinking are some indirect ones potentially caused by alcohol’s ability to impair judgment.

Bungled how, exactly? The CDC may have taken a “better safe than sorry” approach, but even if the risks are small, the degree of harm might not be. At worst, they were a bit over-cautious about the health of babies, which doesn’t seem too bad.

Don’t blame me.

A voting booth designed by Temple Grandin. Nice. I hope you can at least get a hug from the hug machine before it’s all over.

Personally, I think they’re ugly and I agree with you that they’re less practical, but some people prefer a handmade look and that aesthetic preference adds value. Additionally, people like things they’ve (at least partially) made themselves (the Ikea effect), and that also adds value.
