Calming. Anxiety-reducing. Comforting. These are just a few qualities that have crowned the cooling weighted blanket as one of the most popular items of 2020.

The secret in temperature regulation lies in the cooling outer-fabric and inner materials. Breathable and moisture-wicking cotton and bamboo are fabrics to keep in mind. The inside materials of cooling weighted blankets are slightly different than traditional weighted blankets. Look for weighty and cool-to-the-touch glass beads versus heat trapping poly pellets or plastic beads.

Generally, experts recommend that you opt for a cooling weighted blanket at ten percent of your bodyweight to best experience the pressure relief and anxiety-reducing benefits of the blanket.

There are 3 Phases of the Healing Process:

1. Inflammatory
2. Repair
3. Remodeling

Inflammation is information.

So why would we want to prevent ourselves from receiving information? Because it can grant us the instant gratification of blocking painful signals that stop the feeling of pain.

I like to use checkboxes as buttons. And here’s how.

A checkbox is a binary state. It is checked or not. So instead of reading out the state in an event handler, I tend to read the checked property.

JavaScript is now a very popular programming language, based on which a large number of libraries and frameworks have been derived. But no matter how the upper ecosystem evolves, it can’t do without vanilla JavaScript. Here I’ve selected 4 JavaScript interview questions to test a programmer’s skill of vanilla JavaScript.

1. Set your color model to HSL

2. Pick a color, any color

3. Make variations of the L value
   Create a set of L values with differences of 10. Ranging from 0 to 100.

4. Create 10 copies of your original color

5. Replace the L values

6. Find your partner in crime
   To create your secondary color, add 30, 120, 150, 180, 210, 240, or 300 to the H value of your primary color. For this example, I added 30.
   Repeat steps 4 and 5 for your secondary color scheme.

7. Select a primary and secondary variant

8. Choose your side kicks

We live in a data-driven age where information, attention, and content are king — to give you some perspective, 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are created each day.

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 300°F. Salt and pepper both sides of your ribs and place in a single layer in your pan, fattier side up.

Cover the pan tightly with foil and bake for 2 hours. Carefully (steam and liquid in the tray will be hot!) remove ribs from the oven and check the meat. They should be starting to become tender. If they still feel tough, re-cover them and place them back in the oven for 15 to 30 minutes.
Transfer ribs to a plate and drain liquid from the pan. Return ribs to tray and brush with a generous coating of BBQ sauce.

Turn oven down to 275°F and bake ribs, uncovered, for 1 hour more, or until you can pull the meat apart with a fork (if your ribs were small and already pretty tender when you put them back in the oven, start checking after 20 minutes). Brush with another coat of BBQ sauce, rest for 5 minutes, serve and enjoy!

The more eloquent we are at communicating the story, the easier it will be for users/spectators to identify as a part of it.

How to do it: Perform these five moves for 1 minute each. After you finish the 5-minute block, rest for 30 to 60 seconds, and then start the second round. Complete 4 total rounds. Use a moderately heavy set of weights if you have them, but you can use your body weight as well if you don’t.

After reading your article, I am more convinced than ever to stick with jQuery.

I picked up How To Take Smart Notes (affiliate link) by Sönke Ahrens. Ahrens is a Lecturer in Philosophy of Education at the University of Duisburg-Essen and also coaches students, academics, and professionals with a focus on time management, decision-making, and personal growth.

It is by far the most impactful and profound book I’ve ever read on the subject. I was astounded to encounter in its pages (with uncanny similarity) many of the same principles I had discovered over 10 years of personal experience.

Gidole

DIN – the font we all love, the font that looks great at every size. Gidole is extremely close to DIN, but designers with a keen eye will spot very few minor differences. Overall, if you’re looking to use DIN, try Gidole out before going live.

Overpass

Overpass was created by Delvefonts and sponsored by Redhat, it was designed to be an alternative to the popular fonts Interstate and Highway Gothic. Did we mention it also has a monospace version?

Public Sans

Public Sans is a project of the United States Government, it’s used widely on their own department websites and is part of their design system. The font is based on the popular open-source font Libre Franklin.

Object Sans

Object Sans (formally known as Objectivity) is a beautiful geometric font family that can be used in place of quite a few premium fonts out there. The font brings together the top qualities of both Swiss neo-grotesks and geometric fonts. The font works beautifully as large headings but can be used for body content as well.

Jost

When you want a change from the typical Futura, then Jost is a great option with its variable weighting as well as multilingual support.
