Things is a sleek todo/reminder app that I’ve ended up using to jot quick notes. The great thing is that you can write first, categorize later, as there’s an ”inbox” where your items go before you’ve categorized them. Also often highli

To start the year off, my casual just-before-sleep reading will be "Ender's Shadow", which is a story that isn't a prequel or a sequel to "Ender's Game", but a story parallel to it. "What We Cannot Kn

Once as a kid I managed to misdial the emergency number (112) by just randomly pressing the switch, unaware of the trick and with no intention of calling anywhere. I wonder if the emergency worker believed me when I apologized for accidenta

Had the same happen to us, host inventing damage and trying to force a fee through AirBnB. However we disagreed with the fee and AirBnB never charged it.

I'd estimate 2-3 weeks of actual rendering and coding, plus 2 years of having "I wonder how you could make a rendering such that..." bugging me at the back of my mind.

Yes, it's a random byline generator. I had fun with it while making this, getting a new byline every time I tested the site. I replaced it with a real byline now.

I'm sorry. I was running out of memory on the queue server, so had to restart the server many times while fixing it. Instead of caching all the render results in memory, they are now being served from disk instead, which should solve t

Thanks, took me a while to find the issue. I had a feature where if the same client (by IP address) starts another job, their previous jobs are deleted. But after I added secure websockets support by proxying through nginx, all IP addresses

I sometimes wonder about this. Do we really have unique needs that few others would need, or is it just that we lack the imagination to fully appreciate how huge the population is? Maybe only 0.001% of people need it, but that's still

How does it post on Instagram though, thought the API does not include posting? Interested in posting for Candy Japan as well, it’s tedious to post even though I already have the pics and descriptions for other use.
