I'm surprised more people here don't pay for iCloud for at least the bottom tier storage (50GB). The free 5GB is almost worthless in 2025 for doing nightly backups. I don't back up with Apple Photos but even with "just

Designated initializers are so nice. Even though they have C++-isms like required order, it adds safety and readability to code.

If you're looking for cheap bulk storage, refurbished/used is a great way to go. It'd just be nice if they told you that's what you were getting :) Shout out to https://diskprices.com/

Venmo, Facebook Messenger payments, PayPal, CashApp, Zelle, now X. These are all symptoms of a complete failure of our (US at least) banking system to provide a secure, nice to use system that is universal. The closest we get is Zelle and i

Starlink's Swarm (or what ever they are calling it now) might be nice if they ever release the hardware and pricing.

The book is from the perspectives of Ross and from the main FBI (I think?) agent investigating him. It didn't seem much like a "hit" piece to me.

I am very thankful that over the last few years I've built out the headroom on our team to chase "shiny" things that we know customers will want and that we (engineering) want but aren't exactly cookie cutter for our usu

I miss terragen! What a fun way to waste an afternoon on a rainy day as a kid. I just looked it up and WOW it has come a long way (and wasn't it free before? Maybe I misremember).

Not going to try and sway you here but to learn more, read or listen to "American Kingpin: The Epic Hunt for the Criminal Mastermind Behind the Silk Road". Truly fascinating story and good story telling.

From Google: > Partiful does not make money yet. They are a venture-backed startup with many millions of dollars of funding. They will eventually offer a premium version, an ad-supported model, or be acquired by a larger company like Eve

Firefly and Astra both come to mind. Not all of the rockets blow up on the pad or dance around near the launch pad [0], but lots certainly do not make it to orbit in the first try. Space is pretty hard. 0: https://www.youtube.co

The narrator absolutely makes or breaks a book. I find my self more often following narrators versus following authors, which is crazy to say. If you want to give a narrator a shot, Ray Porter is super solid. Lots of cool sci-fi books out

I really enjoy audio books much more than reading (perhaps it helps me feed my need to "consume", as I can listen to them while doing other, menial things) but I also enjoy buying the same titles and filling out a physical book sh

As an EV owner I also want to pay for roads. I just don't really want to pay as much an a Hummer EV, or much more than a gas guzzling truck.

Wouldn't the best of both worlds be a mixed approach? Let her socialize at school and learn some things and teach her extra at home? Sort of home school lite?

Sorry that I didn't include them! In Word, File -> Options -> Save. The setting I found is "Don't show the Backstage when opening or saving files with keyboard shortcuts".

If Vine dying taught us anything its that the content from Tiktok will outlive the platform by being reposted to others. That voice will never die unfortunately.

It's more of a commentary about how food in the US is overly colored for no other reason than it looks cool, sometimes at the detriment of the health of the consumer.

It was eye opening for me when I learned that browsers have domain specific hacks to help them work sometimes.

I love the foggy/misty winter days we've had recently. I don't mind the lack of bright sunshine during the days, but the shortened daylight hours starts to drag pretty hard.

On the flip side of portion size, the giant portions restaurants give out in the US means that my wife and I can split almost any meal we get when eating out.

I had a blast exploring this codebase as I learned C++ ~13 years ago, as it heavily intersected my MapleStory interest as well. Quite a fun reverse engineering project.
