When I lived near a pick-your-own apple farm I often ate 10+ apples a day. After about 5-6 my teeth would get sensitive. Couldn't stop eating them, though- wholly unlike a store apple: crisp, sweet, sour.
1400 Watt of LEDs is the kind of lighting you'll find atop a tall pole in a sports stadium. That's ~200,000 lumen, or about 10x as much as you'd need to light a large room really brightly. If you put that next to a skylight, it would make the sun look dim. It's certainly not impossible, but that's a lot for a single point light source.
What are your rooms like? Do you live in a castle?
I have 2x SmallRig RC 350D [1] and Godox M600bi [2]. These are medium-spec videography lights that draw their rated power from the wall. Lux @ 3m is noticeably (10x) dimmer than the sun.
I have tripped my breaker when running the setup, so I run from two outlets on two breakers. For my current (quite large) room, I'd love to upgrade to the 5000W lights (Nanlux Evoke 5000B or the Aputure STORM XT52), but electrical wiring would be a hassle. For a standard room, I find 700W to be sufficient.
The sun is really bright. My outdoor Hue sensor regularly reads 50k+ lux in sunlight. A room in my house with 100 watts of LEDs reads ~300 lux from the sensor on my dresser.
Yeah it’s truly astonishing how bright the sun is when you start trying to recreate it at home. But my room is brighter inside than an overcast winter day outside! That was my goal, and it’s substantially improved my mood. I’d do a write up but my strategy has been “keep buying lights until it feels bright enough and distribute them around the room”. I should probably get a real lux meter I’ve just been using my phone which seems a bit off.
700 watt space heaters seem pretty common. I’d expect the heat produced by 700 watts of LEDs to be just a tiny bit less than the space heaters (as some of the energy will sneak out the window, photons being sneaky fellows).
I had Covid once. No drugs, no vaccine (don’t jump me it wasn’t available yet). No long covid or brain fog. Sleepiness, loss of taste, flu symptoms for 5 days. Completely better in 10 days.
Anecdotes aren’t usually helpful for effectiveness testing. My experience can vary greatly between my neighbor even with identical demographics and characteristics.
They salt the values and compute id = hash(daily_salt + IP + UA). Then they remove those every 24 hours. I think it sounds like a perfectly reasonable solution.
If they remove those every 24 hours, then doesn’t that mean if I made two visits, separated by more than 24 hrs, it would count as 2 unique visits rather than 1?
Yes. I am still not aware how to track returning visitors if while still staying within some privacy framework. Unfortunately on HN the default answer is to say not to track at all.
Maybe I’m an outlier but I keep notifications enabled, aggressively disabling them at the slightest annoyance (ad, too many for an app I don’t care about, etc). I also use focus modes for sleep and other activities.
I like that I can control when I get notifications without having to completely disable them.
Back in my first house, we upgraded our bed and triedto move the old bed into the basement. We had a very small hallway with a door leading ti the basement. The mattress fit, of course, because it flexes. The frame fit because I could disassemble it. The box frame, made of iron and wood slats, could not fit. That day, I cut all the wood slats in half, bent the metal, and got that box spring downstairs. Then I but bracing brackets on the slats and unbent the metal. A few years later, we did the same process over again when moving.
(I didn’t work in a paper mill but have family who has and I’ve been to them plenty of times to ask questions of the engineers)
