Very cool! I was just looking for something like this last night to generate quizzes for my middle- and grade-school sure kids as supplement to their normal work. So far I’ve settled on NotebookLM. One thing I’d love to see is some examples

Cool! Just a small note on naming: I assume you are going for a play of words on “infer,” but my brain (native English speaker but who also speaks French) immediately read the domain as “hell.ai,” because “enfer” is “hell” in French. ;)

Grid is fine, snow is melting, everything is business as usual. CenterPoint had 99.9% deliverability for the past 24 hours, and ERCOT has 14,781 MW in reserve power available ( https://www.ercot.com/gridmktinfo/dashboard

Unrelated to the discussion of JMAP, but I had the pleasure of helping host the mentioned Inbox Love conference, assisting Josh Baer and Jared Goralnick. That conference was such a fun one! Targeted, focused conferences like Inbox Love, wit

I have two Kasa light strips (KL400) and anecdotally I’ve noticed that its performance degrades every other day or so to the point where it stops responding to change commands. The fix? Blocking all inbound and outbound WAN (internet) traff

Still not much, realistically 4096 bytes or less. Browsers aren’t as much the issue as they’ve been in the past, but I’ve hit snags with proxies, old servers, etc.

I agree that the main takeaway is knowing when to switch. Having a mental model for this makes many future discussions and decisions much easier, because this seems to be a conundrum that comes up frequently (even for me inside of a large t

My team does Wednesday to Wednesday for many of the same reasons mentioned in the article, and it works great. We switch at 11am and hold a hand-off meeting at that time, and invite the whole team. Hand-off meetings with the whole team work

I love astronaut.io! Open it in an incognito window so that your YouTube watch history doesn't get too crazy.

You can pre-select multiple tabs to add to the group when creating a new one. It will also automatically add newly opened tabs originating from a grouped tab in the same group. Not vertical like TST, but a very nice quality life improvement

Haha! For those unsure, this is one of the co-founders of Figma, and he also maintains esbuild. See the root domain ( https://madebyevan.com/ ).

I second that. I've only had a chance to buy one PC from them (I usually run Macs), but the level of attention to detail and customer service from Puget was bar none the best I've had from any tech outfit.

I feel like the headline is torturing the data a little bit. Of the three primary buckets (a click, search session ends, or another search), only the "search session ends" bucket feels like it can really be construed to be not g

Same here. Saves me so much time and very reliable. There are also a few settings one can tweak (limit to homepage or top X%, for example) to make it even better.

A very great tribute. I particularly liked this line: > "He was the first person to understand that security problems are often actually economic problems." I had a wise, old professor in college who taught us, almost as a side

This was a nice reframing of the concept of ikigai as I've heard it, and a quick consult of Wikipedia for ikigai [0] shows that it's largely accurate. I'd also throw out there that one can derive a lot of purpose and meaning

Thank you for your vulnerability and wise advice here. And I’d be willing to guess that your nephews have a ton of fun with you. :)

See the Carington Event: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrington_Event It doesn’t discuss seeing it during the day, but it was visible in places where it would never otherwise be.

I’m curious to know where your productivity boosts came from, as those are always a good motivating factor for me to try something new.

Also fascinating because we have video footage of it, and it’s as crazy as it sounds. Quick 8-minute documentary on it that I found interesting: https://youtu.be/p_iZr2-Coqc?si=kthsdehqzJlvDfkg
