I appreciate the mention of FSNotes (and in turn textbundle). Somehow, despite trying tons of note taking apps and formats, I don't remember ever coming across mention of this form…

Interesting perspective. Though, I'd argue it should be 18 years free by their math. They lump a subset of leisure activities into another category as if those are beyond your easy…

This is a fun blast from the past. One of my first real programming experiences was working as a (the) programmer on a MUD and I remember learning about this technique somewhere (I…

Smart Connections[0] plug-in for Obsidian is worth checking out. It does a really good job of indexing (with local or OpenAI embeddings) and RAG allowing you to chat with various m…

Redirects to Pixel watch for Android user agents.

That has the problem of opening up an attack where the attacker requests the sign-in link, the person receiving the link blindly clicks it, and the attacker now has access. People …

I can't tell yet if I'll actually end up using this in practice, but it's pretty well implemented. The memo is stored as another email in the "Memos" folder as a reply to the messa…

It's just an anecdote, but from my one-time experience the 90 days restriction isn't a hard restriction with TMobile. Service worked fine for 5 months for a family member abroad (i…

I'll absolutely reference an issue number in a comment (with some context comments as well) in cases where it makes sense. Sometimes you need to go back and read through a lot of c…

Thanks for the hint about `--intent-to-add` / `-N`. There's constantly new things to learn about git. I use `git add -p` extensively, but never thought to check for an option like …

Re: T-Mobile - On United you can just set your laptop user agent to a mobile one and sign on with your phone number. Works fine for both the short period and full flight options.

Looks to be this rider - Eugène Christophe: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eug%C3%A8ne_Christophe

I enjoyed this show about feeding the tour riders: Eat. Race. Win. https://www.amazon.com/Eat-Race-Win-Season-1/dp/B086HVQ5RB Related, Unchained ( https://www.netflix.com/title/811…

Your "join" page is a little UX uncomfortable. Middle click doesn't work for the description or apply link (just loads the whole join page again), and the apply expands/embeds the …

Related - this might be helpful to someone. ImageMagick can do a visual PDF compare: magick compare -density "$DENSITY" -background white "$1[0]" "$2[0]" "$TMP" (density = 100, $1 …

I use some custom tools for PDF comparison (visual, textual, and perceptual hash) for my personal records/accounting purposes. A number of the financial and medical institutions I …

Bolt will cool itself, but it does so more aggressively when plugged in (even if not actively charging). I always leave our EVs plugged in when it's over about 80F and below freezi…

If you're using AWS ElasticBeanstalk Tomcat distribution, 21 isn't supported yet. I realize this isn't a huge segment of the market, but it's probably not the only example. https:/…

They don't (on iTerm2), which makes this of fairly limited utility for me, since my next operation would be to copy the filename and act on it. I mainly use a modified version of i…

Mine (with Hammerspoon) are: - Left half / right half - full vertical - Move to monitor 1 or 2 - Bottom half / top half - full width - Center 2/3 wide, full vertical (for the ultra…

I wish you could turn off auto-play when watching a video from a playlist. The general auto-play option doesn't have any impact on playlists.

Agreed. Google Sheets is a great scrappy option for a startup / small company. I've used it for a lot of system data that needs to be modified by a few people at most. With a littl…

Not knocking the tool, just an alternative for people who might not be aware. GNU date almost does the same as their examples: date -Is -ud 'today' --> 2024-04-12T14:04:08+00:00 da…

By "atom boxes", are you referring to the ATOM Echo or something else? https://www.home-assistant.io/voice_control/thirteen-usd-voi... https://shop.m5stack.com/products/atom-echo-s…

SimpleDB still works for my company's AWS account. There's been no announcement of a shutdown that I've seen (and I check occasionally since it's almost entirely disappeared from m…
