A few months ago I was working on migrating cloud build for a personal project and hit a documentation error. Submitted a correction via the feedback button and it got fixed few days later. To be honest I was a little surprised by how fast it got fixed.


totally agree with you.

Regardless where you are, removable battery is a huge fire hazard. News about devastating fires caused by e-bikes batteries shows up from time to time. In China, It's common to see posters advocating for the storage of e-bikes outside building.

So don't store it in your home.


As a huge fan of podcasts, I am building a podcast information database that includes metadata on shows and episodes.

2 millions shows, 70 million episodes collected so far.

Now, I just need to find the perfect audience for it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


This is a crowded space, no?

Here is one idea - if you can list the advertisers for podcasts/episodes, that might interest new podcasters/other advertisers. Kind of a search engine to search podcasts by advertisers (or vice versa)


A couple in Canada were reportedly scammed out of $21,000 after getting a call from an AI-generated voice pretending to be their son.

There's a podcast I listen to sometimes called "The Perfect Scam," sponsored by the AARP but, I suspect, is intended more for the kids of elderly people who are more at risk for these kinds of things:

They have quite a few stories about "virtual kidnappings" and interview the people involved -- it's quite interesting, and has given me a lot of insight into how typical it would be for people to hear panic and react with panic...precisely how these scams are intended to go.

Supposedly, One can search github using `language:typescript filename:docker-compose.yml stars:>1000` but it's not working for me somehow.


DB data can be stored in volume and persisted.

There are a lot of dockerfile / compose examples on github.

Vimium is the vim mode for browser.

I have been living with the broken yank feature for the past two weeks and just found out that Vimium has been disabled on the Mozilla addon site and leaving me no way to get the yank fix.


Also a long time keepass user.

The db file on my Mac is shared with iCloud and is acted as the master file. All updates happen on the mac and the rest of the clients just sync and do read only. It has been working well.

All my website passwords are saved in firefox account so I rarely need to update the db file.


I have both PHPStorm and Pycharm running, each takes up 4+GB memory on a 8G M1. Slowly growing memory usage for WindowServer process makes matter worse.

For the last week, I have been playing with Neovim in spare time using a setup based on https://github.com/LunarVim/nvim-basic-ide It does pinning plug-in too.

It's working well for small projects so far.


Software I use the daily

Apptivate - set global keyboard shortcut for Mac. Firefox - been using it for 20 years and still loving it. Vimium - vim binding for Firefox. Make web browsing more productive.
