I'd say since smash.gg is already the established method of organizing esports events across a variety of game communities, despite being straight forward.
I could be wrong, but it seems like there's a distinction between perceived sugar (amount of sugar in drink) as mentioned in the study and perceived sweetness (how sweet the drink tastes) which is what you're referring to.
What's the distinction between multi-screening and multitasking in general? Is there something about "media" multitasking that specifically affects memory?
If it's not ready for evaluation then HN is probably your best bet since it would stay within the circle of devs. Twitter/Reddit/FB won't get you the open source contributors and critique you're looking for.
I almost always prefer the desktop app over the web client because my browser is so polluted with random tabs nowadays. Also google chrome has programmed me to feel that web clients will be slower and resource intensive (even though this probably isn't always the case).

For me it's the opposite. I often play videos in the background when I'm performing monotonous tasks and it seems to help me from getting completely distracted and abandon the task altogether.
The common strategies that you'll find people do are:
- take notes in margins
- phrase what you read in your own words
- think critically about what you read
But for me, I extract the most value when I discuss what I read with others. Not only does it provide more motivation for reading but I also find myself with a lot more insight after a conversation with a friend about what we just read.
I've found it works very well when theres a mentor/mentee dynamic so long as the mentor has a mentoring mindset. But when I have something time-sensitive to deliver, I almost always stay away from it.
Been meaning to make the dive into learning Go for a while now. My semester is finally slowing down so about to make the jump. I'll be doing a lot of digging on my own, but please link any resources that you feel were helpful for you.
Agree with you. Luckily, the similar look/feel/taste of meat substitutes isn't much geared to vegetarians, but to those stuck on meat who aren't willing to give up what they've been accustomed to.
Terrible isn't really the right word here. Keeping animals in cruel conditions, terrible. Eating meat, not so much. It's a natural part of the animal ecosystem. I often find that those who hunt are also much more appreciative of animals and thereby more careful with their consumption.
That being said, we're in a position where our consumption (or more importantly, manufacturing for consumption) is out of hand and is causing great deal of harm. I'm all for meat substitutes.
