I moved from Logitech to Keychron because of double-click. Unfortunately my Keychron M7 got double-click too. Getting very jaded with the mouse industry at this point.

That explains why all my vibe-coded hobby projects are down. Thank God I'm not dealing with any public-facing sites! Would have been an expensive lesson for a newbie coder if my jo…

This has been my experience as a newbie. My prompts to Claude has evolved from "what program / data source do I need to do this" to "what program / data source do I need, to make y…

> However, I can't imagine vibe-coders actually shipping anything. I'm a vibe-coder, and I've shipped lots! The key is to vibe-code apps that has a single user (me). Haven't coded …

Space Marine 2 & Rouge Trader Which was what got me stuck in this expensive hobby

I love sumatra but I can't figure out how to sign with it.

If you are doing a lot of miniature photographies, black paints / fabrics made with graphene are great for lighboxes. Musou black is what I tried.

"The later versions of M365 copilot (or whatever it is called today) are wildly better than the original ones." I find AI agents work very poorly within the Microsoft ecosystem. Th…

What can you do with lots and lots redundant climate-controled buildings? Indoor strawberry farms.

These are so infuriating they should be illegal. Especially when they come from apps you can't delete like your bannking app.

I do not feel as optimistic about any uptick in cables as I do about solar and wind. Solar and wind can grow through a multitude of small, plug-and-play projects. Cable projects li…

Jiro's son is only allowed to make sushi after 30 years.

Isn't SF6 very dense? Why would its greenhouse warming potential matter if it's never going high up into the atmosphere in the first place?

Sounds like a race to the bottom. First, there's Tether > We're the only option in town. Then, there's Circle > We're more legit than Tether, we're based in the US. Now, there's th…

> If students find a way to get a diploma without doing the work, it will soon be worth less than the paper on which it is printed. Amen. I look forward to the era where we train p…

Well, when you put it that way... it doesn't seem that bad at all. Maybe the real innovation here is the political manouvering of coming up with a new, desperately-needed governmen…

So how does this work in the US? I thought companies in bankruptcy will be broken apart and its assets sold piecemeal. Can anyone who buy this out of auction get in one piece and d…

Every single expense in your P&L is ultimately salaries. If it's not salaries in your P&L, then it's salaries in your supplier's P&L, or salaries your supplier's supplier's P&L.

Why bother going all the way to Singapore when their neighbor (Java) has 100 million people?

What's the Huawei OS policy towards... uhm rampant piracy? I guess that's one way to carve a niche from Android in international markets.

On an side note, can anyone recommend an AI tool I can use to learn a random niche language as a hobby (e.g. Toki Pona)?

Hmm.. I didn't know that. Which makes the demand purely political then. I recall IMF making the same demand from an island country a few years ago too. https://www.imf.org/en/Blogs…

Fair demand by the IMF. Presumably they require their loan to be repaid in fiat because of their internal charter. If Bitcoin adoption eventually removes El Salvador's ability to i…
