I got introduced to https://goblin.tools on the Fediverse and found it handy ever since for some of the usual things I ask ChatGPT. On it, there's the "Formalizer" for this use case, and "Magic To Do" to

Ditto, that kind of mania is a force to be reckoned with. On one hand you get insane productivity and momentum from it and on the other hand can cause you to momentarily neglect some responsibilities. I have a love/hate relationship wi

Did you know you could type [[## in Obsidian and it will autocomplete all headings available in the current vault instead of just the current note with [[#? It's barely mentioned and I don't even remember what post I saw this in o

It's weird that it's tsaa (cha-a) in Filipino but the Philippines is surrounded by seas and one of the closest areas to the part of China with the Min Nan variety.

Ditto, the inertia is real but one can be hopeful. I'm using it for personal documents (simple ones for now using currently supported features) because it's so easy to set up a data pipeline to read data from CSV, YAML, and JSON

Note-taking apps . It's TiddlyWiki+Obsidian for me so far. These are the ones that I think have the best chance of striking a good balance between powerful features and having the data useable as long as possible. At one point I was t

There's Typst ( https://typst.app ), which is a new typesetting language aiming to improve some of the more inconvenient aspects of LaTeX and make it more functional (also incremental rendering!).

Can Vivaldi collapse/minimize the vertical tabs like in Edge? I tried the setting but I had to drag the sidebar to minimize. It was inconvenient so I came back to Edge.

Oh, no wonder some glyphs look tall for their respective characters. The Euro seems especially quirky.

As a chemical engineering student, it's a whole lot of formulas cobbled together to spit out calculations that would otherwise be done on hand (especially empirical methods that compute estimates where a clean answer is not possible li

Similar, I wrote mine[0] with Typst (alternative to LaTeX) and YAML. It's source is still plain text but I get a nice PDF with the beautiful typesetting reminiscent of LaTeX and an easier scripting language. edit: The generated PDF fro

No gist needed really. I found that using the Dockerfile available in the repo to deploy was easy enough. Basically clone/copy the repo, configure the bot's settings, and then deploy with `fly launch` within the repo folder using

Lol, I just literally deployed an implementation from a GitHub repo[0] for free on Fly.io hours ago. This way I can also check the code and just pay for what I use. Seems like a low-hanging fruit to leverage on people who are not that into
