I believe you're looking for a "macropad". I recently bought this one from Adafruit and while not life changing it is pretty nifty especially combined with BetterTouchTool. https://www.adafruit.com/product&#x2

I was going to say "NYPee" was a missed opportunity for this name. My go to map of bathrooms in NYC is this Google Map I found on Reddit a few months back: https://goo.gl/maps/oiKqZ5PTEQ3RAWeJA

Slight typo in the parent comment should be www.getartemis.app, an extra "w" snuck in. I have now knowledge of the product but was curious to see it.

Wow, I had heard that Firebase was powerful but this almost fully featured program is just one html file, the leaflet js library, and is fully powered by Firebase on the backend. I got it running locally on my machine without any trouble, t

Firefox shows a little “i” in a circle to signify “info” but it’s subtle and I didn’t realize what it was for a long time.

This is a great idea that I'm glad to see exist. I've been trying to write more, about an email a month keeping my family updated with my life. I've thought about making a blog but I found a better alternative. I've got

I bought an Anker 40W USB wall charger originally for a Raspberry Pi cluster but now it just lives on my desk. I thought I was doing just fine with the provided USB wall warts but having all of my charging cables in the same place is super

> I think Portland, OR is one of the few cities in the US with good support for this. Agree with all of your following points but I just wanted to mention that every MTA subway station in NYC now supports digital wallet tap-to-pay as wel

My secret move when I'm having trouble setting up a new library or dependency is to search for some common code from it on Github. For example, how do I use the Python requests library (bad example because it has great documentation) w

This is the first time I've seen the acronym FANG instead of FAANG. It doesn't appear to be a typo: > We will have devs and advisors who've worked at FANG (Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, or Google) companies helping out. Guess

The app description mentions "one time purchase with no subscription". If you are looking for a more feature-rich markdown editor may I suggest Drafts [1]. The free version is a very useful, feature rich Markdown editor and the pa

This looks really cool, I've been annoyed at how Roll 20 tries to do everything and isn't super intuitive.

Custom domains seems like a lot of work, I think just the path would be nifty! I wouldn't be opposed to whole themes, but even just being able to change the background color would be a nice small touch. Maybe you could even do that ove

This is cool and just the right amount of functional! Suggested features: - Custom URLs (perhaps for a fee?) - RSS for blogs would enable linking to everything from Mailchimp to RSS readers - Customizable colors?

The M5 kits caught my eye at MicroCenter a few weeks back when I was doing some holiday shopping, I couldn't tell if they were just toys or actually useful. Any pointers on them?

This is very cool! The project description says that it is inspired by Soulver [1]. A similar (but different) application for iOS is Tydlig [2] which can also generate some simple x-y plots. [1] https://soulver.app [2] http:&#x

I was lucky enough to be in the room for this talk although I showed up too late to get a seat. The event was held at the Info Age Science Center, I would strongly recommend the VCF Museum there [1] and the InfoAge Space Exploration Center

A similar project is Maplets [1] which contains a database of "national parks, state parks, metro maps, bus systems, ski resorts, universities, theme parks". Some are georeferenced already but many are not. You can also scan and u

I love it, but I don't know a lot of these words! If the author is reading I think a nice small improvement would be to prefix the Google search with "define" (as in: "define ${word}") to invoke Google's dictio

I don't know if you've visited @pinboard on twitter recently, but it seems like Maciej's priorities may lie elsewhere at the moment, and I for one am OK with that. https://twitter.com/Pinboard

This is pretty fun! I appreciate that accessibility was addressed as well (although I'm unqualified to assess how well it works in practice).
