    Yeah, I get that. I treated my reddit account like that. My reddit account was 15 years old and you can do some sleuthing and doxxing and track down my real name if you’re persistent enough. Nowadays I value privacy a bit more, so I just save important stuff to my second brain (these days it’s in Obsidian.md, but I’m not married to a specific app).

    Do you understand how averages work?

    If there are 8 billion people on this world and each one has one skeleton in them, then the average number of skeletons is one. If even one of those 8 billion people have two skeletons in them, then the average is slightly more than one.

    So the average is more than one for pregnant people, but also for all people as a whole.




  • Pretty much anything below 1/32 (0.8mm) of an inch, we’ll switch to decimals. 0.0001 inch is valid with no common way to make that neater. No such thing as 1 mili-inch.

    .001" is a thou or mil (1/1000 of an inch). That is commonly understood in any industry that requires that precision and also doesn’t already work in metric by default. 0.0001 would be 0.1 thou, but honestly any time I’ve ever seen anybody need more precision than a whole number thou, they worked in microns or nanometers.


  • This doesn’t answer your question, since it already seems answered, but an additional step that may be helpful is to use a completely separate firefox derivative browser for one of those tasks.

    I personally use Firefox for most of my daily browsing, but I have LibreWolf installed with separate configuration options (different proxy, etc). I could do the same with multiple Firefox profiles, but I prefer the separate icon as a reminder that my workflow is different in this particular browser.
