Calendars are a prime example of Metcalf's Law. (The influence of a network is the square of the number of elements participating.) https://hankehenryontime.com is another alternative calendar, but doesn't attempt to a

Fantastic. I love that this is brand-independent, like buying a mechanical keyboard.

This is interesting... but I can't help but think how much better it might be if instead of a video background just had a simpler e-ink display for indicating what the transparent key caps were for. The animation/videos are very

Could be 8-bit posits may be enough. Has that been done? At scale. I do not know.

I agree that trying to use hue for encoding magnatude information is not great, but man, how many times have I given up on someone's infographic that decided to use four different shades of blue and purple you can't tell apart whe

This isn't my experience with Co-pilot's suggestions. I've literally been able to have Co-pilot suggest a complete unit test based on a novel structure I hand-coded myself and a few words describing the unit test. The constan

When I was in school reading coaches encouraged the awareness of subvocalization (where you mimic the text as if you were speaking it, but not aloud). If you find yourself doing that while reading, stop/suppress that.

PureScript always sets the bar high for this in my mind, here's an example documentation page: https://pursuit.purescript.org/packages/purescript-effect/4....

SEIKO Vision by their website does not appear to be available in the United States (no providers are listed in their directory)-- do you happen to know anything equivalent available there?

Bluetooth audio is a burning dumpster of monkeypoxed clown corpses. I have two sets of BT headphones, and I avoid using them b/c of the unpredictable pairing behaviors. It needs to be replaced with something dedicated to audio-- becaus

This is pretty much why 1/5 of packages I'm getting via FedEx Ground are smashed or damaged. They aren't even supposed to be "overnight" and mishandling is rife.

I'll propose that it could be the glyph to represent "cutting corners": > To skip certain steps in order to do something as easily or cheaply as possible, usually to the detriment of the finished product or end result.

I got curious about this and found https://github.com/danr/kakoune-easymotion which I'm going to give a try. I haven't tried helix in a while, sometimes they have chosen not-quite default-kakoune like binding

kak is my daily driver. About the only customization I do for it is the integration of fzf for file picking-- althought its window management with kitty seems to be broken, I have to run it inside tmux for this to work. Recently I more of

The news media is kind of fickle about coverage about anything that doesn't get more ad revenue/impressions. Everyone's filter-bubble affects what they see. At least last July it got a minor boost of awareness from the Whit

The notifications come back in just about the same way the Algorithm scrambles timelines on the social media apps--its just like they're trying to keep you engaged in using the phone. Ideally, the notifications should have two very sim

More and more, I'm finding its all about the homocysteine. It's correlated with all kinds of neurological problems with different names. Something about it gets out of regulation by the body and the sufferer falls into the incide

I think that's related. I think also for a lot of web pages, they have ephemeral state that would not be captured by a bookmark, so they get left open and accumulate. One can never know sometimes which page will succeed as a bookmark
