    I have used tools like these for nearly a decade and find them invaluable. My current favourite is Mailpit [1]. The “OG” I would consider Mailcatcher [2] from my Rails days [1] htt…

    How to respond with data to draconian corporate IT “security measures”?

    Recently I started getting prompted to login to Microsoft for SSO a lot more - like 10 times a day. When I questioned IT I got the following response. I'd like to respond with actu…

    I read this after making my own post that starts the same. This sums up my thinking too so elegantly. There are so many aspects to code and how it gets written that inform the outp…

    Yes! I do! But they’re never the parts I think they’ll be. Sometimes it’s the simplest of things like a nice CRUD api that’s bounded and neat. Sometimes it’s a horribly complex sys…

    I’m loving jitsi, I’ve built a prototype video party app this week focussed on lockdown parties and fixing the things that don’t work for big parties over video chat. We’ve had a c…

    I've been thinking about this too. In fact I've started hacking on an app to solve this for my group of friends. To me the two primary issues are: 1. Sub groups without losing the …

    I've had the same situation and reward, but just on a normal non prime day.

    Yea I came to ask that same question. All I can assume is that’s badly reported and in fact entire cell tower’s messages were being tapped. Which has huge repercussions for privacy…

    I've got two automations that were life changers. 1. Whenever I start watching Plex on my TV, my home automation turns off the lounge light that reflects in the TV. 2. If it's afte…
