Gravity powered descent system sounds like a euphemism for falling
In South Korea, high-rise buildings now include compact, gravity-powered descent systems hidden behind walls or balconies.
"Remote work kills the culture and warmth that only real human interactions in an office can create." the culture and warmth:
This app is feature complete since 2 years ago. Today I'' have to update all the libraries, because I don't want it to desappear from the Play Store. I built it for my wife, and I'm doing it out of love, but some much FUCK YOU PLAY STORE. Long live the WEB
if you ever think you’re a good programmer just remember this dude wrote roller coaster tycoon by himself completely in assembly, earning him $30m in royalties
The prophecy is finally coming true! Microsoft and Apple have been fumbling their offerings for developers, so now is the perfect time to simply decide to try Linux. It literally takes as little as two minutes to install!! youtube.com/watch?v=GQJZ96…

FYI. Voice memos drive me crazy. They shift all the work from sender to receiver. You hit record and ramble for 3 minutes while I’m stuck listening with no way to skim. You’re trading YOUR efficiency for MY time, and if you keep choosing your convenience over mine, don’t be…
The most valuable use I've found for generative AI so far is helping write small bash scripts - a syntax I've never spent the time to master. I'm starting to build a bit of a collection of small useful tools now, it's great.
Julius Caesar on “doggo” people. There truly is nothing new under the sun lmfao
As a software engineer, it's very important to learn about Gall’s Law, which states that complex systems cannot be created successfully from scratch. In reality, even large systems, such as Netflix, Google, or Facebook, have started small and built incrementally over the…
If I ever give up on computers as a career, it'll be to start a line of home appliances that just have great big knobs, boring-but-reliable internals, and premium utility. Like an old Lexus. Toyota reliability under the hood, lovely leather, and ready to drive a million miles!

Huge respect for the people that manage to get up early to go to the gym before work consistently. I find this aspect harder than the actual workouts and it's not even close
To anyone else infuriated by this change in Android 15, someone has thankfully gone to the effort of reviving the old DnD tile as an open source 3rd party app here: play.google.com/store/apps/det…
Hi @madebygoogle re the recent change to Quick Settings on Pixels that replaces Do Not Disturb with an intermediate Modes menu. When I want to put my phone in DnD mode, I want to do it quickly. Now there are more taps needed. How do I get the DnD quick setting back?

TV shows are like coffee in that it's easy to become accustomed to mediocrity and forget how good they can be. Until you come across a good one again and remember (we're watching Better Call Saul lately).
Life hack that has reliably improved my sleep quality: leaving my phone in another room overnight.
Set up a small home server/NAS last week - a Raspberry Pi 5 running Open Media Vault and NextCloud, with a couple of SSDs in RAID 1. Setting it up was pretty straightforward and enjoyable. Now I wish I'd set one up years ago - we keep finding more and more uses for it.
This was generally my experience too when visiting England. The Cotswolds in particular were charming and beautiful
Leave the cities, and England starts to look pretty appealing.
Embarrassed to admit I didn't know this until growing broccoli in my garden a couple of years ago. It was a bit of an eye-opener to how far the modern person can be removed from where their food comes from.
Broccoli is a flower that is harvested before it blooms. If you leave it alone it will bloom
I found out my wife was cheating on me at a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert and I don’t ever wanna feel like I did that day.
