My son has set the house up with a Pi-Hole. It’s a raspberry pi running Ad blocking on the whole house’s network. We’re a few hours in and we’re seeing effects, as well as some teething problems.— Simon McGarr (@Tupp_Ed) August 11, 2022

So cool and weird that camera “lenses” are almost always an arrangement of many lenses, even for fixed focal lengths.Why do some fixed lenses have a dozen internal glass elements? What do they all do? Are they all an elaborate sequence to correct chromatic aberration? pic.twitter.com/BfVowIf71w— Andy Matuschak (@andy_matuschak) August 9, 2022

Ive lived in NYC for 17 years and waited tables for 8. People think the homeless are out of control, but let me tell you: RICH PEOPLE are out of control. Unhinged like never before. Everyone I know in the service industry says customers are the worst they’ve ever been. It’s true.— james tison like “tyson” (@doioweyoumoney) August 4, 2022

Often the best thing to do when you feel "stuck" is to define the stuck. Preferably on paper, write down what it feels like, what it looks like, and everything you know about it. Doing so can give you insight into what you might do to get unstuck.— Tanner Christensen (@tannerc) July 8, 2022

If you want help or advice from someone who gets a lot of requests. Don’t ask for a call. Don’t send a long email. 3 lines of email: Who you are? What you want? How best for the person to respond/help? Simple. Way higher conversion than a call request.— Harry Stebbings (@HarryStebbings) July 17, 2022

“It's uniquely painful (and motivating) to show an early version of a product to customers — things are clearly unfinished, and people have high expectations. Bad combo.
But it still seems better to ship early + learn, than to wait until things are "ready."”
