As a Japanese who whines about tiny kanji shape differences between Japanese and Chinese, I should never complain about '١' vs. '۱', right? 🤯

Yeah, agreed. It's a piece of crap when it comes to searching. 😭

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

Sounds like you see how MM-DD-YYYY is ridiculous to everyone other than Americans 😜

She did a great job.

Nothing is as exciting so far. But Apple finally gave up "iPad" and is now trying to run "macOS" on iPad is kiiiinda exciting to see how it goes.

When software engineers are vibe coding more these days, why do people even bother programming on Shortcut? Apple is totally out of touch.

Did Fedeligi pick Round and Round? He must replace Tim Apple right away.

My wife's friend in Japan sent her a package with gifts worth ¥33,270. UPS charged me $331 and only took a check. That's over 100% in goddamn tariffs, which seems way off. Could they have mixed up JPY and USD?

Our experiences over the past 3 years suggest it may be valuable to understand these attacks on science as extensions of the Big Lie (of election fraud), Covid denialism, & Jim Crow 2.0 — part of a collective effort to bend reality, science & values to align with the central fantasies of Trumpism.

What DOGE actually revealed, with its utter failure to find any significant instances of waste, fraud, or inefficiency is that--notwithstanding Musk and Trump's lies to the contrary-- the Social Security system and other programs they attacked are remarkably efficient in allocating public goods.

Elixir’s electric guitar strings on a Stratocaster

Trying out this Elixir thingy. I’ve heard it’s quite the thing. Let’s see how it goes.

Yeah. But the Tuesday meeting was held this week.

According to Einstein, it's possible for an object moving really fast that the meeting (2 days ago) might seem to happen before the podcast show (6 days ago) but the zoom summary violates the causality principle here. So, no, that's not the case.

My cat does that all the time. So, yes.

Last Friday, I joined a podcast #rebuildfm on my personal laptop in the bedroom. Yesterday (Tuesday), I hosted a zoom meeting on my work laptop in the living room. Today (Wednesday), the Tuesday's zoom meeting emailed me a summary of the Friday's podcast. How the heck is this even possible?

Amazon now has a ‘Get book’ button in its iOS Kindle app A welcome upgrade.

1968 has never happened in my life. So, I don't buy it.

Chase.app worked fine for years, then suddenly demanded my driver's license to log in. I refused & deleted the app. Tried chase.com, they asked me to call. So, I called, and they said I must install the app or visit a branch. I can still login on my laptop, but no longer on my iPhone. How stupid.

Steve Kerr wore a Harvard basketball shirt after the Warriors’ win tonight: “Yes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

Yes. Your welcome.

"This country has gone insane. I'm returning home before I get arrested for nothing", my colleague said before quitting his job today. 😭

No. Please spend money and pay taxes in the U.S. so we can give tax cuts to the rich, more and more.

Just finished the yearly "Data Security Compliance Training". I always thought it would be boring and useless, but now I'm very confident that I won't accidentally invite a journalist to my secret group chat.

I thought I loved 80F, but I was wrong. I can't handle jumping straight from 60F to 80F in one day! The change has to happen gradually, I guess? 😝

I miss winter already.

98% is hardcore! I've lived in the US for too long and can enjoy sugar 😝, but I only like dark chocolate (60~80%), too.

Haha. If you have a wide selection of premium Belgian chocolate, you don't need to. The price of a donut is stupid and I don't care what's viral on TikTok at all, but given current chaos driven economy, I can't complain too much 😝

Same. The Bolt EV will be my last GM car.
