That's interesting. I have around 10-15 of those IKEA 365 glass containers with plastic lids and have never had them chip. I stick them in the dishwasher all the time.

I wouldn't take it even if they payed me. In a country that does the things it does, even if you could stomach living there, I'm sure if you built something worthwhile there it would certainly be taken from you.

Rectangle, Rectangle Pro, Magnet are all very nice and make the window management ok-ish on Mac imho. I've made the switch a couple of months ago and the window management without those apps seemed both different but also somehow worse

Same. This is, for me at least, the killer feature for a smart watch. I've recently bought one and use the voice recorder feature on a daily basis. Previously I've used wonderfully "low tech" standalone Sony voice record

This drove me nuts when I was writing my master thesis. Professor handling it insisted on writing the outline first and then, in order (!), each of the chapters. I found that approach problematic, at least for me. How was I supposed to know
