Over the course of 5-6 years, I managed to move everyone that is important enough to me to Telegram. I don't care about privacy at all, I just couldn't stand the wrong abrasive spit-in-your-face whatsapp UX. It's funny how fa

The current administration is an.. unprecedented one to say the least. Maybe I'm old.

That sounds like great parenting, like the kind that figured out what life is about a few times and just passes the wisdom onwards. Reading this made me realize how far I am from being a good parent - I relate more to your child than to you

That's a big fallacy - Putin is a dictator. The first rule of democracy is that democracy must not kill itself to prove it exists. The same goes for Hitler and the other dictators. Democracy is not the solution but a tool. This tool is

A long while ago my friend and I released a Safari extension that shows a few clocks in the timezones that you choose. I can't recall the details, but we had an off by 1 error on a few zones during DST. I ended up fixing it by hand cha

How about non-judgmental, down to earth pragmatism?

There is no such thing as correctly describing reality, the way you describe your reality affects your reality. Reality is mostly perspective.

This is one of the precious little gifts of living in the future. You get to see what (some) people want to achieve and a few actually make this. It's literally people turning their time and resources into magic. Sure, most of the time

Jarred is a gift to the FOSS world. It's quite inspiring to see such a success creating a product like this.

Hahaha how do you like the weather they're controlling?

Exactly. What's the big idea to be strong and stable when you have no respect whatsoever for human lives? You can just kill the competition! Sacha Baron Cohen's The Dictator is a piece of art that demonstrates this absurdity in th

Why don't you ask the kids at Tiananmen Square? / Was fashion the reason why they were there?

Anecdotal, but I for one despise the youtube/instagram etc. rabbidholes. When I'm in the mood for a good one I scroll wikipedia. I had the best random conversations about what I read there and it feels like I remember this forever

There is no good, just bad and kill-it-with-fire kind of evil. You choose bad you get a bad life. You choose the other you get literally hell. One government harvests and sells the organs of its healthy population[0][1][2] and the other mak

Yes but there are Reagan's interests and Hitler's interests. You have no choice but to pick the lesser evil.

That's the way I like it for my children. Pardon the demagogue. The US, being the awful mess it is is still 100x better IMHO than the chinese government. It's the lesser evil kind of thing and honestly the reason I believe that de

Cercle is a gift to the world. For anyone that didn't receive the gift yet - they're organizing great DJ sets in special locations. Multiple times I've put something to listen to, and found myself watching the whole show.

This reminds me of that Mythbusters episode in which they test what is the fastest strategy in a traffic jam or congestion - switching lanes or keeping your lane. IIRC the result was that it's the same, but zigzagging makes you feel it
