I loved lightning when it first came out. And, perhaps a contrary opinion, but the I still think lightning is easier to insert than usb-C. The curved edges and smaller size mean you can begin inserting it at an odd angle and finish the inse

It's kind of interesting to me how Intel ended up making/owning the thunderbolt interface, given that they don't make products at either end (no intel laptops, monitors, or docks). I guess they technically make much of the ch

Ahh, I remember something similar. I remember there was a "secret fairy shop", which was a hidden clickable link. And the shop was usually empty, or stocked with low-worth items. But every 1 hour or so it would stock with high-val

Pretty cool! I would provide a live-demo link on the landing page, showing some examples of commits/projects, and the types of tweets that would be generated (or at least a link to your youtube video( https://www.youtube.com&

I remember that same bug! It was something about timing and angle that always resulted in a bullseye. Must have been pretty simple for me, a 10 year old, to figure out. I never got banned from it though. But I later forgot my password and m

Neopets was my first exposure to the "stock market". It was a very simplistic market where there was a price floor of ~$5, and prices would randomly go up and down from there (it was not based on buying and selling, it was a simpl

My feedback: The first things I looked for were primitive components, like buttons, forms, etc. to give me a sense of how the components would fit together cohesively. I only see higher level combined components (pricing page, FAQ, etc.). I

Yes exactly. I've also found that learning by "ask ChatGPT, paste, verify" is so much faster and more fun than banging my head against concrete to deeply read documentation to reason about something new. I've started doi

Love the name "Atticus AI", there's alliteration and it references a lawyer defending justice. Makes me feel on the right side of the contract if I'm using it. Will definitely check it out the next time I have a contract

Haha agreed, the name is very off-putting. I was sort of expecting an explainer and a clever quip for the name in the GitHub documentation, but didn't find one. There are definitely many other names for an "all-purpose" tool.

Reminds me of https://xnapper.com/ , except for code. I imagine some people might tweet snippets of code, and this makes the snippet look much more visually appealing.

I love and hate it. For simple things like navigating down one key, or one array entry, I know by heart, and it's incredibly useful. But anything more complicated, and I'm too lazy to lookup the documentation. jq will fall into th

Already soldered 2 dactyl manuforms (one for home and one for work), not going to solder another one until one breaks :) Though honestly if it broke, I'd probably just pay for the next one, not worth the labor (literally hundreds of so

Hey Oxidome, I like the idea (validate the idea and get some emails/feedback before actually working on something). But your UI is a bit dated and doesn't grab customer attention very well. Here's another site doing something

I haven't been following ergonomic keyboards for awhile, but went pretty deep a few years ago back when the Dactyl Manuform and Kinesis were the only names in town. So seeing the Glove80, I was excited to see a new "mass-manufactu

It's so funny how the smoothness of the second hand has changed in desirability over time. It started with mechanical watches that moved relatively smoothly at 3-6 beats per second. Then Quartz came along, and it became fashionable for

I had a similar problem, and resolved it in a simpler way. I had all *@DOMAIN.com messages forward to my main gmail inbox, which is a one-line configuration change with google DNS, so doordash@DOMAIN.com, etsy@DOMAIN.com, etc all go to my @

Hey Rayuaz, your project is pretty cool, does something simple, very well. My feedback: - the black/white aesthetic seems a bit sterile for a RPG character generator, some more colors would make it more fun. - if the character descript

In iOS, I tried some very simple abbreviations (like 2 characters), and it drove me insane when a typo triggered the abbreviation expansion when I didn't want it, so never got that feature working for me.
