   Germany got a bit off-rails during the last months. Any critique towards Israel’s actions it is called antisemitism. As an example, this event organised by jewish people to talk about peace have been marked as antisemite by the government a

   Why is this flagged? I think it is a relevant piece of information.

   this sounds quite sad. I'm also experiencing the hottest 1st October I had in my life, around 27° C. Everybody is outside in t-shirt when the usual thing is to wear a jacket in 15-18° C... It is quite scary :/

   I was an early adopter of Figma. Unlike many designers, I chose not to use a Mac since I'm more attuned to Linux. So, when I discovered Figma as an alternative to Sketch, it felt like a breath of fresh air. Over the years, I've be

   I'm using wlroots-nvidia package in arch for a few months and made swaywm totally usable. I'm using a ryzen laptop with external display via the nvidia GPU. All good!

   I had the luck (or not) to live in many places in Europe, US, Asia, and in every single place I had the need to use a car I felt so miserable. For me not having to use a car === dramatic increase of quality of life.

   Living in Berlin, I disagree with you. Noisy motorbikes and cars with techno full volume is the bread and butter in my hood.

    I don't think is fanaticism. It's about easy of use and workflows. Most of the desktop apps and websites don't care about keyboard navigation (and usability) and you have to use the mouse no matter what. When your main workfl

    cool! I have pending to change the camera API. The current one uses the old Android API which was a pure mess. They went though 3 API iterations and now it looks quite sane :)

    This has been a bit of my philosophy with PHONK for the last 10 years. “A framework for old and new Android devices” https://phonk.app Basically it is a device-hostable framework and IDE that allows rapid scripting to do interes

    This is very Figma specific :) I used to use .base components before, but IMHO with the latest Figma updates they are not needed anymore. Editing variants is superfast with the layer multiselect tool. I created and maintained a fairly large

    If you ever need to use Pure Data patches in Android combined with sensors, networking, and more you can use PHONK. There is an example where you just drop a patch inside and you can communicate with it using the typical send/receives

    ah! really cool! I really love all these types of interactions in apps and games I wish there were more esoteric UIs and tech :)

    yeah. Most of the apps were made in C (or C++, I don't remember) or Java. But there was a Python port that was quite awesome to make experiments. This was before the Iphone was launched IIRC and I think it only worked with the Nokia N

    Many years ago, when everybody had Nokias with the Bluetooth on, I used to do a similar thing. I created a S60 python script that kept scanning Bluetooth mac addresses and link them with the cell tower I was connected to (no GPS yet on mobi

    Thanks for your comment. I've been following Penpot since last year and sometimes joined your livestreams :) I really love that Penpot is sticking with standards and I think piggybacking on SVG might bring lots of cool features for fre

    Probably if you know how to run the notebook you might also know how to quickly go through the code and see if it might do a potential harm to your hard drive. I dont see a big deal TBH.

    I agree with you. It's sad how Firefox went the that route... Also the community plays a very big role promoting Blender and pushing the development. We can see that with Geometry Nodes. The adoption in the community has been really gr
