When you are vesting into a tool which is going to be a core part of your workday it’s worth the time to make sure you get one that does what you want in a way that you like. It’s not about a numerical gain, it’s more like making sure your

Plus the fact that social networks today are intentionally designed around a dopamine reaction feedback loop. They’re hacking your emotions as you describe, but they’re also hacking you chemically to get you addicted, which is why I no long

Honestly, the toilet is like sacred ground for me these days. No kids, no work, no chores. I can read and be left alone and it is literally the only time of my day that is true. My family probably thinks I have a severe bowel problem becaus

I use a corne keyboard and I can not recommend it enough.

I have a pair of Nreal Air glasses which I purchased for my steam deck. I used them a couple of times then they went into a drawer. The issue I had with them is that the screen moves with your head. I know this sounds super obvious, and I k

I don’t personally like ortholinear boards, I think they only solve half of the problem. Columnar stagger is the way to go, no more claw hand pose.

I use a custom built corne keyboard which staggers the columns based on finger length, but not the rows. I don’t think I will ever go back to a standard layout keyboard after having used this for a few months. https://imgur.com&#

Update: the most recent iPadOS beta has improved this drastically. The watermark now sits in the notification area at the top of the screen and is relatively unobtrusive.

> I don’t find the idea of a microtransaction every time someone visits a site to be repugnant at all. It costs me money to send my site to people requesting it. Why shouldn’t I be able to say that my sending it to them is conditional on

I switched to asdf years ago for the exact opposite reason, I was tired of having a different tool for each language that I needed to maintain. It adds up, at one point I was using six different vm tools. Asdf really simplified my daily usa

Well, I’m running the iPadOS 16 beta, so it’s possible my frustrations will be yours too in a few months. I hope they fix this though. I’m submitting feedback.

I would honestly just rather have the drm than that watermark. Dark pattern success?

Sure thing: https://imgur.com/a/4CTsLSD I’m sure this is software related, and I’m on the iPadOS 16 beta, so it may be less of an issue for others. On my phone it folds into the header and truncates, but on the iPad it

Fair warning to all: the watermark on the epub purchased from the publisher is pretty obnoxious. On Apple Books it floats over every page and in some cases covers actual text.

It’s hard to get adoption for expensive toys. I think Datomic is neat, and I’d like to use it, but it is prohibitively expensive for a personal or hobby project. Personal projects are where I get excited about tech, and when I’m excited I’m

I just picked up clojure as a hobby project outside of work and I’m enjoying the language in general so far. I have to say that reading this rant gives me a bit of doubt about continuing. I actually agree with most of what this guy is sayi

I talk it out to myself. “Ok, a is right one and up one, b is right two and up none. B to a would be up and left”. I tried really hard to do this by imagining a grid with points on it and I couldn’t, going back to the reference clears the i

That you’re making an assumption that older people can’t be as—or even more—productive than younger people is strikingly on point for this topic.

You’re downplaying the enormous social pressures that are used to make these things happen. I describe it as a cult because that’s what it effectively is; the tech leaders bring in young, impressionable people and throw money at them, and p
