Maybe re-examine the foreign ownership rules for telecommunications companies... "As it stands now, foreign ownership of a telecommunications company is limited to no more than 20 per cent of a company’s voting shares and no more than

You might be interested in this app: https://deriveapp.com/s/v2/ It gives you tasks, like "Keep walking until you pass someone wearing green. Take the first left." to allow you to explore a city.

I really like this way of exploring! Also a way to just have time to think, I feel like walks are well suited to just to flesh out ideas or reflect on things that I do not have time to reflect on normally. I love this article from 2012, ref

Interesting! Kind of like pair programming, but for driving. Do you think there are any interface cues that could make this style of working with the system more efficient?

I've really enjoyed using Mosalingua! It is focused much more heavily on common phrases and vocabulary, and lets you choose a certain area (such as business, sport, dating) that you want to focus on in another language.

Lua also powers itch.io! [0] Leafo, the creator, has also built Moonscript [1], a language that compiles to lua, and Lapis [2], a web-framework for Lua and Moonscript. I am always fascinated by his productivity. [0] https://leafo

I don't know! I do know that I vastly prefer meeting people in person, compared to talking on the phone, and I think it is the same for a lot of people. I prefer it so much that I occasionally spend hundreds of dollars on airplane tick

As far as I can tell from the material Meta has released, they have an incredibly ambitious vision for the metaverse. Essentially, I believe they want to create glasses that you wear, that allow you to see other people in your space, wherev

This is exactly me. It is like I get bored as soon as I realize that I could do something, and move on to the next thing. The book "Refuse to choose" was really enlightening to me, it talks about "scanners", people that

French has a word for this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verlan Verlan is itself verlan of l’envers (backwards). It’s super common to make slang words this way.

Love this! Such a fun and immediate way to build and play games. I submitted https://squareword.org , my daily word game in two dimensions, which works like a combination of Wordle, Sudoku and crosswords. No ads or registration.

I love this! Just the fact of walking with no purpose helps me think so much clearly. I often think a lot of my work gets done on walks. Sadly I don't do it enough. You might find this app that someone told me about interesting: https

I think it is so cool how the popularity of Wordle has opened the door to so many games that expand on the concept. It is like it created a shared expectation for how games like this can work that has now been adapted and expanded by so man

This has completely changed the way I use files. I rarely ever open the explorer to navigate to a folder, but instead open everything to search for a file and then instantly jump to the file location. Naming files well becomes much more imp

That is fair! I feel like those should definitely be allowed. I am using a wordlist based on this: http://wordlist.aspell.net/12dicts-readme/ which is public domain and has about 6k 5-letter words, compared to the Word

Thanks for the feedback! Do you mean in the square itself or the possible guess words? Tried to calibrate the square itself for a good balance between challenge and reasonably common words.

Hmm odd! Thanks for the feedback. I think it may be related to the material ripple effect on the keys. Pushed an update now that hopefully fixes it.

Fun! I made one with a 5x5 square of letters, containing five words down and five across: https://squareword.org/ A bit like a combination of crosswords and Wordle, as vertical words can be used for additional clues.

I like this one! Clean and minimalist. Did you make it? Shameless self-plug, but if anyone is interested in alternatives with an added challenge, I made https://squareword.org where you guess words to uncover a word square of 5x
