Wonderful article. I was diagnosed with ADHD but it was more of a "here are some pills, go away" deal. I've never had someone put into words the way I feel without my meds so... el…

I hope Apple isn't removing this from their laptop touchpads. I mapped force clicking to ⌘+click to open links in new tabs, it changed my life.

I got an email 3 days ago asking me to reset my password due to "system updates" and initially assumed it was just a phishing email. Since gmail is pretty aggressive about filterin…

It wouldn't be perfect, but there are tons of services that can generate an RSS feed for a specific twitter user. It looks like @stripestatus only tweets when there's actually an i…

Ran into this one in the wild when it happened, before stripe status had even tweeted about it. I was trying to order doordash and got a "Could not deserialize JSON object" error w…

I met a blockchain researcher this summer, I was asking her what sort of stuff she was working on and she started talking about supply chains. Like drexlspivey mentioned there are …

The first time I rented a server I was looking around my room to think of a cool hostname and saw “yavapai” on my backpack. Since then I’ve just been using names of Native American…

I have really been enjoying Quantum. It's noticeably faster on almost every page I use daily, or maybe it's just placebo. I have noticed that on pages that are very JS and video he…
