Had to learn soldering for this beauty but it was well worth it:

BastardKB Charybdis Nano
Gateron Speed Silver v3
DES Keycaps in MJF Nylon
Magnetic Steelplates on Neewer tripods

Open sourced by @bstiqco, support him and buy a pre-built if you don't want to go the DIY route.

Proud to share that my wife and I have pledged $300,000 to the Zig Software Foundation. Zig has been an absolute joy to use but more importantly I think their culture, vision, and project structure is a bright star for the future of systems programming. https://t.co/ZLm6hkH7bw

At the height of One Million Checkboxes's popularity I thought I'd been hacked. A few hours later I was tearing up, extraordinarily proud of some brilliant teens.

A thread about my favorite story from running OMCB....

We used to be a society.

Can’t make this up, my in-flight tv is already hacked on the way to defcon

Made the switch from yabai to Aerospace by @nikitabobko. Really impressed so far. Feels snappier and is a joy to config. My dotfiles: https://t.co/T1AQ9udjTg

@sungchulxyz @bstiqco It is mounted on a flexible tripod head and I can adjust the tenting angle.

A conference lists fake (invented) Coinbase & Meta engineers as speakers on 4 conferences in 2021, 2022, and 2023. All are conferences where Uncle Bob also speaking. People found out & upset that confirmed speakers were just AI images, nothing more.

Uncle Bob: "cancel culture!"

New from 404 Media: those food delivery robots that are armed with cameras and driving all over sidewalks in LA? They're providing filmed footage to the LAPD, according to internal emails we got. Food delivery robots just became surveillance devices https://t.co/kAxh1tSgZ0

Really excited to share the work that @EricHoracek and me and countless others have been doing at Airbnb to adopt SwiftUI.

Swift 5.9 is here! 🎉

Was fun to help put another release blog post together. Credits go to everyone who helped contribute with content and suggest improvements though!

This actually happened to Evernote. They took the advice of “keep talking to your customers and ship whatever they want” as the only guiding principle for product development. And what ended up happening was paying users liked it, but the product become unintuitive and feature overload for the new user. To the extent that they had to rebuild a version for the new user.

Users don’t always know if they really want something. It’s your job to take the extra step to think on their behalf: whether they really need this. Or can what they ask be done through something much simpler. Or can you solve multiple problems of different users with one new redesign rather than a bunch of changes. The right principle is: “Keep talking and listening to your users, spend the additional time thinking on their behalf what they actually want, and ship that”.

Ken Ribet had bought a copy of Serge Lang’s “Algebra” as an undergrad. Frustrated by the style, he wrote a comment to himself

Yrs later Lang had Ribet’s office in Princeton while he was away & saw the comment while perusing his book. He left a reply. Like Twitter before Twitter

This may be the most interesting super-specialized account I follow. @bclemens finds planes in satellite photos and figures out what they are. It's a fascinating core sample through history.
