Yeah it’s the typing bit I can’t bothered doing. Heimdall has all the IPs and ports with an easy to recognise icon. Save’s me remembering things when I want to do things. It is my ‘job to be done’, and it does it well. That is the problem

The application is open sourced [1], and it gets a lot of attention from all manner of people, ranging from nation states (both ‘good’ and ‘bad’ guys, depending on what you’re using it for and from where) and activist researchers. It’s al

I… wow. Thank you. Also: thank you for building a tool that actually works. I used it first in 2010, then switched to EndNote for better web integration, but I’m back to Zotero now that there’s a Safari add on. The PDF functionality in 5.0

There’s an approach in design thinking that you should only ever present half-baked prototypes to a team or client - if they see a somewhat polished product, one a few things can go through their mind: you’ve put so much effort into it, tha

There’s a game called Sand Balls that is incredibly therapeutic. It’s not hard, and doesn’t have too many annoying upsells. Just physics fun.

I’m not sure if this is satire, but everything you’ve written is a terrible idea. Expanding from Baktyar drones to autonomous ground weapons and lasers sounds ‘connected to a supercomputer’ sounds like a way to escalate the situation both w

Same goes for zucchini and eggplant. People often bring their excess zucchini’s into the office as a trophy, and potentially prize to some lucky staff member, but they’re tasteless.

This post is interesting, but the whole project seems like a vanity project to put on your resume. I’d argue that it’s peak vanity project. Once you have the basics of collect>summarise>publish metrics, it’s trivial to add just one

These look really neat, and simple (and innocent) enough for my young kids to use. It’s a shame they’ll be snapped up by people three times their age and used for twenty minutes before becoming a shelf ornament.

I feel like there’s a market for a publishing service that could partner with popular blogs and websites. They could either allow articles to be selected by the user or the partner site, which could then be auto-paginated and printed being

I’d be more interested to see the Messenger stats. The FB site fulfils most if not all use cases of the app, other than notifications, so it’s entirely unnecessary for an occasional user to keep it rather than just using a browser. However,

I’m a curmudgeon, but I still think the gaming industry has a lot to answer for in terms of power consumption. Steam even has a ‘Earth Day’ banner today, why should probably read: ‘turn off your PC’.

The pricing is a bit off, and there isn’t a lot of innovation in today’s product compared to the one from ten years ago. The free web browser version has materialised from Pro license fees, but I don’t use or want a browser-based version.

I guess the modern equivalent is a Notion or Obsidian home page. Or a Heimdall dashboard. I actually miss the feature in XP that let you embed a static HTML page on the desktop desktop. So much potential for customisation out of the box, b
