• My True Ancestry! I'm a Modern Hungarian.

  It's quite easy. You just have to download your DNA file from ancestry.com and then upload the zip file to MyTrueHeritage (after signing up of course). Then in 10 minutes your results are ready! Source: 7 months ago

• I found out im pretty much English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh with a tad bit of Icelandic... Why do I have such thick brown curly dry hair olive skin and brown eyes?

  Ill definitely keep that in mind I did do ancestry.com's test and was not exactly satisfied as it did not tell me what part of England or Ireland my family comes from as we are all very disconnected. Source: 7 months ago

• The Ainu: Japan’s Nearly Forgotten Indigenous Peoples

  My sister did do an ancestry.com DNA test, but it was super underwhelming since it was just 100% Japanese, with no regional breakdown. I think 23andMe does a better job and at least has Japanese regions, but unfortunately we went with the budget option. Source: 7 months ago

• My family won’t acknowledge they got their tan skin from my ashkenazi Jewish great-grandpa.

  That being said, my mom is 100% Ashkenazi (according to ancestry.com genetic testing) and as a little kid I used to ask her if she was black because her skin is so brown (I wasn't asking in a pejorative way I was just genuinely curious) and it is weird to me that people think that just because our families immigrated from Poland/Russia, that means we are of Polish/Russian ancestry; our ancestors were ethnic...

• Ask HN: How do you cope with being interupted?

  It's very situation-dependent, so here are a few things I've done: 1. In a work situation where I'm relatively senior, I've proactively communicated that I like minimally-interrupting notifications (email>slack>IRL). Even when someone taps me on the shoulder, they're a little sheepish about it, and I can request 30 seconds to jot down a note about where I left off. I also just feel more in control of the... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• How is everyone tracking software expirations/renewals and recurring maintenance tasks?

  We just redid our process about six months ago and we are now using rememberthemilk.com for ours. We setups recurring tasks for each item. They have flexible reminder options like text and email that can go to different people at varying times. When we complete a task it automatically re-schedules itself for the next year.
