A few months ago I got so fed up of squinting at glowing rectangles to stay informed/updated. I feel like there's a finite amount of podcasts I can reasonably follow/digest so I built a very basic prototype to summarise RSS

More focussed on developer UX than telemetry, `Make VS Code Awesome` [0] shares a lot of configs to clean up the UI/nags/prompts. I'm not affiliated but have bought it and found it significantly improved my days in Code. [0]

I recently purchased something from the official UK Nintendo Store [1]. I did not opt-in, and was not asked to opt-in, to marketing emails. Several days after purchase I received a marketing email with an Unsubscribe link. I submitted a GD

Workable solution for "who was in the office" to aid tracing, but the capacity part seems a bit off. You'd really want to know ahead of commuting what the planned capacity is, and make a decision based off of that. Otherwise

I've come back to TabNine after a hiatus and do see the occasional lag or the process thrashing at 100% of a core. Depending on mood I'll kill it or let it recover. I find myself forgiving any sporadic lags thanks to the product

On the desktop side, I'd recommend Tim[1] to anyone looking for a similarly-simple, hassle free time tracking app ($2.99 on Mac app store). My only gripe is you can't archive old tasks so the menu gets a little overwhelming. [1]:
