Question from someone who hasn't been involved in crypto since baby was born in 2021: We all know that this can happen to centralized exchanges and using a DEX will protect your assets (the ones that don't go to $0 on their own li

You've just linked to a small, walkable street with slow traffic that has multiple food and shopping options mixed with medium density residential. Zooming out it looks like a quick walk to a metro station and multiple parks nearby. No

You can also do this with GUI apps like App Tamer※. I use this myself to limit CPU consumption of hidden background apps (but not visible apps in the background), optionally running on the Icestorm cores only as well. Lots of options and wa

It took me six months to actually set up TS because of the lack of email/password auth. So this is definitely a pain point. It's such a good product that it's annoying that they don't roll their own simple auth. I eventu

Warning for folks using or considering using the Spark client. I downloaded and set up the Spark email client back in 2019, thinking I'd enter my IMAP credentials for local email usage. My fault for not reading how it works, including

If it's that good with Japanese, I'd love to see it support Korean! Keeping up conversational practice is very tough as a non-native speaking not living in Korea anymore. So having an AI that I can bother at my convenience would b

I got the impression that the OP used it to mean talking about the same thing over and over and just filling the time with empty content, so I used it in the same fashion.

Personal recommendations of good podcasts that are 95-100% content (<5% ads, waffling, etc): - Accidental Tech Podcast: Apple-related stuff. https://atp.fm - The Sajin: photography in Korea. https://www.buzzsprout.

For those who intend to have one child only, they now have a rental program where they ship you the SNOO, you use it up to 6 months, and ship it back. Works out to about the same as what you'd lose by buying it new and reselling it at

Makerstations※ has been great for this sort of stuff, plus they also have an 80s/90s computing vibe with their fonts and choice of imagery. ※ - https://www.makerstations.io

Thanks for the recommendation. I avoided BitWarden for two reasons: - No Safari extension - Electron app But now that 1Password is Electron and doesn't seem to work with Orion, I will give BitWarden a try again since the 1Password adva

Orion looked (and still looks) amazing but when I tried it a few months ago 1Password refused to work with it (and any non-authorized browsers). This is 1Password's choice and entirely their fault, but I haven't found an alternati

There was a lot of discussion from ex-Ubnt employees in a January 2021 thread※ related to outsourcing and incompetent management. From what I've read, they still show ads for their products in newer Unifi Controller web interfaces and

As a TPM, I actually use ClarisWorks 4.0 (in SheepShaver) in drawing mode when running retros on one of my teams (iOS). Originally did it as a joke a couple of months ago but ended up sticking with it since it is lightning fast and works ju

When I lived in Canada, I was very excited when CASL (Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation) came out circa 2013. Having the ability to sue Canadian companies that ignored email opt-outs would have been great. The amounts are limited to $200

I would love to import a Honda Acty. A neighbour had one when living in Toronto but seems like they're really difficult/impossible to import to California.

The only thing I can discern is maybe they wanted to preserve the privacy of the interviewers? But if that's the case, then just do no-video for both parties.

I wouldn't take either offer today for different reasons, but this was during the hiring ramp up right after the March 2020 COVID shutdowns. No reason to take an offer that was significantly lower at that time.

I mean, it certainly makes it easier to try and hire if you're paying 40% less than Coinbase (at least as of mid-2020)※. ※ - Kraken offer was 120K USD with no room to negotiate, Coinbase pre-offer was ~170K base + ~30K options/yea

My take as a TPM and certified in Scrum: the better and more skilled the team members, the less you need Scrum and other frameworks. Scrum is great for teams composed of new developers who don't yet know how to work together, or teams

What I am surprised about is that nobody has made a high quality UVC camera with a large sensor and great lens, specifically for videoconferencing. Even the "good" webcams (like the Elgato FaceCam and Logi Brio) have tiny sensors

I already posted below※, but I actually tried this out. It doesn't add swimlanes to Trello the way you'd expect. It opens up a new view which looks like Trello, but seems to be totally custom. So you can only see the swimlanes in

Adding additional info to my sibling comments. Since the bottom is designed to show night, it would be cool to grab a geolocation and draw the bottom based on sunrise/sunset times.

Discovered Bluey and use it as a treat/distraction when needed with my 10-month-old. I legitimately enjoy watching it and love the subtle jokes made for parents. A big part of the charm is the Australianisms. We don't need more Am

I think swimlanes is a feature that benefits everybody, not just developers. At a most basic level, swimlanes by assignee would be crucial for a family board (as opposed to coloured cards by assignee, since colours could be used for categor

Came here to complain specifically about this. 2022-02-22 is unambiguous, big endian, and sorts nicely. IDK why society still uses any other date formats considering how international everything is.

My personal anecdote as a long-time Mac user: there's a positive correlation between the number of Electron apps I have to use and the desire to retire from tech. Native apps feel and fit better and consume less resources. Unfortunatel

So I've been tracking companies that don't honour the unsubscribe link for 10 years. I've found that a few companies per year (out of hundreds I'm tracking) end up emailing me 4-5 years after I unsubscribe, as if a new m

This is like beach season in South Korea. June 30th, Haeundae is deserted and has a few people looking around. July 1st hits and it is completely packed until Aug 31. Then Sept 1 hits and it is deserted again.

Precisely. I seek out native Mac apps and actively avoid cross-platform junk, since it is slower and more bloated, and doesn’t match the native UI (though Apple itself breaks its own conventions these days). So this is a major selling featu
