As an Indian immigrant I had noticed this very early on too. It made me very uncomfortable when some of us would crack jokes in non-English language while there were others around who didn't understand the language. After first few yea

Great work! That said if we are focusing on the UX, windy.com has got the best weather reporting experience. Ex: I am almost never interested in "30% chance of shower at 08:00pm" type of forecast. I am more interested in the trend

Really well done!!! Not sure whether this is the limitation of the hosting platform, but I can't find a link from your game to github.

Infinite scrolling makes it extremely annoying to use. Also very limited search results. I searched for "London" and got nothing modern enough to use, or nothing that even resembles London remotely. Are there really no images of L

Microsoft Edge (and windows 11 enterprise) overall is such a piece of garbage and spam. Just recently my work computer got Enterprise 11 and I had to jump through hoops to remove the spam (news articles on home page). I work with clients an

As a kid this type of art fascinated me so much! And recently a friend shared with me something similar and I had to look up whether there is a name to this form of art and I found it on Wikipedia.

Thank you! I didn't know this meaning of the term. I always heard it as being used to describe a male dominated culture.

I don't know about Arabic but in Urdu the numbers are still written left to right. I found that extremely annoying when I was studying Urdu.

I had a trial subscription of Prime couple of years ago and I hated that they showed skippable ads about other Prime content at the beginning. That was enough for me to never join Prime.

I have mixed feelings about heat pumps. Where we live winters aren't too harsh - our coldest night would be around -18C and for the most part January/February hovers around -10C at night. Our main heating is oil-based hot water ba

Exactly! People who can actually solve these problems (including politicians) have no incentive to solve them. On the contrary they have more incentive to keep things as they are.

It's absolutely true - the lack of respect for human lives. Remember all those incidences where a film star or a rich kid or politican drinks and drives over a family of poor people sleeping on the streets and you hear nothing about it

I can probably make some space for a home gym, but like I said earlier part of the motivation going to the gym is to see other people working out and being serious at it. I am no longer an advanced "lifter" because of certain inju

You will find that if you go at the times I go, most of these things are not a problem. It's usually only the serious, respectful people who show up at that time. Once I went to the gym around 5pm and OMG, it was the first time ever I

I've been a gym rat for almost 20 years now, and I'm probably the worst customer for gyms. I only workout at 24*7 gyms and being an early bird I get there at 430 and I have pretty much the whole gym for myself. I am there 6 days a
