I come back to the video every once in a while and it is total zen.

I was into woodworking, then I got into building fly fishing rods from bamboo. Fly fishing has been around for a long time. They used to build rods by hand out of bamboo - a specif…

Digg may have a bot problem but Reddit isn't far behind. So many subreddits are full of slop that they've become useless and/ or completely unreliable. What's an actual viable solu…

Right now the page says Copilot and Actions are affected but I can't even push anything to a repo from the CLI.

I would so very much love to see GitHub switch gears from building stuff like Copilot etc and focus on availability

Why not just use the mobile app? It has Claude Code built in. Maybe I'm an unsophisticated idiot but it works well for me. Some shortcomings with repo management but other than tha…

Absolutely not. 500-1000ms is borderline acceptable. Sub-300ms is closer to SOTA. 2000ms or more means people will hang up.

Merry Christmas to one of the last great internet communities that I actually like to interact with

If you run or work at a small business: cell phones, landline, VoIP, or something else? What sucks about your current setup? What would you like to see instead?

Watching surfers in the middle of this park was one of my favorite things to do in Munich. What a bummer. I'd be surprised if they had any luck at all restoring it.

Not accurate. You are probably looking at a site like https://libgen.ac/ which states clearly at the top: "Not a Part of Library Genesis. ex libgen.io, libgen.org" The real one has…

This is relatable. Once one gets over the frustration of failing and making mistakes (thousands of times in some cases), it becomes fun and easier to stay curious.

I made a phone-based one to teach me how to cold call because I fucking hate cold calling but needed to learn to sell

$155 seems like a lot. I do this with a $5 pi zero and a $5 adapter and it works flawlessly.

I love this. I bet Nintendo does not. But ... can their lawyers do anything about IPFS?
