Thatβ€˜s tough.. I mean they did kill 30+ thousand protesters, so the war could be seen as a necessity from a humanitarian perspective. But I agree that itβ€˜s mostly unprovoked, and probably a breach of international law.

But letβ€˜s not kid ourselves here, Iranβ€˜s regime is awfully brutal

If their claims are all real they not only have killer engineers but also exceptional marketers πŸ˜‚

Itβ€˜s genuinely nice to work in a code base where you feel that the developers weren’t in a rush and spent a lot of time architecting, refactoring, refining and making things as concise and readable as possible. No leftovers of the exploration process, only a clear final design.

I've written a guide on how you can build your own, privacy-preserving, home security camera! It has a bunch of smart features, like on-device AI-vision, and is easy to set up.

Love to see text rendering performance improvements! Cordova 8.x seems to be great as well.

Doesnβ€˜t look like much yet, but Iβ€˜ve started connecting some parts for building a private home security camera.

Digital ID is horrible for online privacyπŸ˜“

We need transparent & European Social Medias, not an ID system that locks teenagers out of participating in the online world.

This is awful!!

Banning algorithms makes no sense, they are fundental to how the internet works, but we need transparency in how they work πŸ’―

Canβ€˜t say we are "on track" if the goal gets changed every couple years.

Also, what about Chat Control?

New bugspot.dev design. Over 500 bugs for OpenGuessr have been handled autonomously by the platform already!

I was looking for a good feedback board and the ones I found (Canny, Nolt, Fider, Usersnap..) either had mediocre UX or where super pricy.

Then I discovered userjot.com 🀩
Will use it for my next side project – together with bugspot.dev for bug reporting of course. @shayy.org really COOKED!

System APIs for PWAs (notifications, widgets, purchases..) would be a game changer

Thatβ€˜s awesome! Have never had issues with a corrupted project myself, but I imagine this is super useful for people that have run into this.

Really appreciate that you go above and beyond to build stuff like this!
