I am using iTerm2 with multiple tabs. Sometimes I put different projects on different spaces on macOS. The trick seems to have a special place of them in my head. But I do feel there must be a better way.

This feels like the image of the plane that returns from battle with bullet holes, and the engineer being asked to path up where the holes to make it stronger. Only to be told to patch where there weren't holes as those planes didn&#x2

What timing. I was just preparing my Sony Vaio PCT-C1MHP only yesterday to try and sell. I remember seeing this in a movie around 2000 (probably Charlies Angels) and got one. https://www.starringthecomputer.com/computer.html

About 15 years ago I used to have a Silhouette cutter printer. You could get a cutting blade and it would cut shapes out of paper and card. I remember putting a pen in there and using it to write with it on paper. It was cool.

Very fun. I can only imagine building this with Claude and testing needed a bit of mental concentration.

React was one of those ways of building software that gave me back the giddy excitement I had learning Visual Basic as a kid. It’s hard to explain, but the way everything was encapsulated as a component just clicked for me and suddenly the

I’m working on Flowtelic. A workflow driven note-taking system that aims to get you thinking deeper, but also help you work on the most important thing next if you’re stuck. While not essential, it’ll be enhanced with a local first AI appr

As someone who tried to sort many lego sets lately, I do like this. The problem lies that modern lego has so many unique forms that it feels like you'll have many bins with one or two pieces in.

This is actually one of those things I think the EU should consider regulating. It then means kids can have proper parental controls as they often get introduced to things by being handed a parents phone every now and then.

This is my site: https://www.productgenome.com/ It's where I'm exploring the range of products I'm building/testing which gives a bit of context to why I'm interested in certain areas.

I picked up on that also. I feel that a lot of humans would also get confused about whether you mean the eye on the left, or the subject's left eye.

Thanks, and great feedback about the use of dollars!

Thanks. I’m based in the UK so have a good grasp on that, but I’ve reviewed someone’s resume from the US just as easily. Generally, English speaking and preferably in a digital related field, but a lot of the common pain points seem to be u

I’ve gone old school. After reviewing a few people’s CV’s the easiest format was for me to record a video with the feedback, so I put a site together for that: https://resume.fail/ No AI, you just buy my time. I’m also look

The problem I face with building web apps where the elements are draggable or clickable, is that the browser also selects the text. The easiest solution is to disable text selection. But I’d love to know if there’s a better solution to keep

I tried looking this up and it sounds like it will be supported. But then again, we don’t have the ability to install Fortnite as that’s blocked in the EU.

I noticed that as well so fixed it out of auto mode and onto the Claude 4 Sonnet 4. It takes longer but gives a better results. I also saw that it was 0.8x the ‘credit cost’ thinking still that I had 500. Now to learn that the 500 has gone

Siri to book a flight? I just want it to reliably tell me what time a specific meeting is tomorrow, know that when I ask for where Mount Etna is, I don’t mean a city in the USA, and stop just ignoring me randomly when I talk to it. Apple ar

I'm working on a resume review service. Really simple, submit your resume and I'll record a video analysis of it. I created it because every so often I get asked to review someone's resume and they've found it very helpf

I wasn’t sure how good CSS was and whether it would be good for layouts and such. Then I found the CSS Garden and it was the shining light that made me understand its power. Similarly, it was ExtJS that made me realise that web sites could

Can I confirm that the reason it's not preferred to have comments in data-formats is because it's to be machine read only and as such should be as efficient as possible and not contain information that wont be used? Seeing as I ca

I would guess the double-slit experiment to fit this analogy.

You know, I think that has. I remember this happening, but the recent years I’ve been into London on occasion, this doesn’t seem to be a problem anymore.

Same here, which is interesting when you see it next to more blue-blue. Maybe it's the relative effect.
