    To this day nobody does notifications as well as WebOS did. IMO the hard-headed refusal to make a touch keyboard even optionally available also contributed to their demise.

    Good read. It’s kinda funny that, on a CSS focused site, the position of the “latest” article label on the homepage is set above that of the site logo and navigation bar. It’s nice…

    It’s a “luxury belief”[1] and it shows that some people either forgot or never really knew how the other half lives. 1: https://quillette.com/2019/11/16/thorstein-veblens-theory-of…

    Think Google Inbox (RIP :tombstone:) meets Basecamp (:campfire:). A little like Superhuman in that it's a an email client that uses Gmail as its backend and it has a plethora of ke…

    Even if you factor in investment returns you're not getting the full picture IMO unless you take into account price increases over time as well. A common refrain is that Carnegie H…

    Echoing others here, I honestly prefer this than dealing with outdated defaults built into the OS. More often than not they just get in the way. The real bummer is for newcomers. I…

    $1K - Hard pass. I'll take two crappy IPS 24 inch monitors before I drop that kinda cash on a monitor. Thing is I've seen co-workers with these, and buy call accounts they love the…

    It's wild that this is still around. Just re-installed it to manage my Discord, WhatsApp, Facebook, and Telegram all in the same place =-)

    I've built in house versions of this for a handful of roles. Frustratingly common problem. Great that there's a free model, but would love to see a `hobbyist` tier as well. 50 QPS …

    Pretty, but performance is abysmal. Also looks like it changes the browser history on every interaction, ie any drag and drop, which seems, to me, to indicate some behind the scene…

    I've been using DDG as my main driver for over 2 years now. Contrary to the vast majority of commenters here, I almost never use !g. 90% of of the time, if my first search didn't p…

    The conclusion that nation wide legislation would fix this is, at best, wishful thinking. ATMs are secure because banks would lose money if they weren’t. Not because of regulation.…
