Ohhh this would actually be pretty easy to do by adjusting playbackRate. Just be sure to disable pitch correction first (on by default in most/all browsers that support it IIRC).

Better set up a coercion canary, quick.

Quick put out a campaign shirt that just says "Ultimately"

Gallup has new polling on immigration. Topline findings:
-Americans hate Trump's immigration policy (35% approve, 62% disapprove)
-Share who say immigration is a "good thing" for the country just hit an all-time high (79%)

Glad to see y’all working on this. Still too many restrictions and limitations for me to consider switching to, but looking forward to broader features and more recent PG versions in the future. 👍

2025 feels like being awake during surgery

Fox Mulder from X-Files saying “Hey, you got to stay alive if you want to stick it to the government”

“If you die, you let them off the hook.”

Needed this reminder today.

These chumps all dressed up to grab a few dudes doing tile that just got back from remodeling a single woman’s guest bathroom.

Let them know you’ll be there every hour on the hour for the next 4 years then. Better to ask forgiveness than permission, right?

Oh, interesting. I have two. Not bad.

There’s a list?

I've said it before, I'll say it again: pitch it as increasing SCOTUS to at least 100 Justices, with randomly selected pools of 9 to hear each case, such that no single Justice matters so much.

These examples were first try, and the only selection I did on the photos was choosing a couple that I took and didn't mind sharing (no personal stuff). Eerily accurate, especially the downtown skyline shot—100% accurate. And this is with GPT 4.1 Mini!

Spun up a quick tool to generate captions for photos using OpenAI GPT 4.1 Mini. The captions are automatically added into the image metadata (exif). Makes them more searchable on iOS and macOS. Cost: $1/2k images.

Very cool. Hard to pick a font on mobile though—list isn’t alphabetical and it’s a huge select (no typing to filter).

Next.js: ignore test files in route folders (pages) • Corey Ward When working with Next.js, I prefer to keep my test files right next to the code they’re testing. For example: search.ts search.test.ts This makes it easy to find tests, spot missing coverage, and avo...

I got tired of putting route tests in awkward folders in Next.js and came up with an easy fix: coreyward.svbtle.com/next-js-igno...

I was doing this previously, but it's harder to keep them in sync. I wound up making a mess…I had short-term branches and stashed code fragmented across multiple largely non-semantic clones and it was a pain to manage. Then I found git worktrees and it's been much easier to manage.

This works much better than multiple checkouts because you have a single copy of the repo, avoiding all of the syncing between different copies of it, keeping all of your stashes together, etc.

The way I've been doing it is to have my git repo in `_base` underneath my project name folder. Then each branch I want to work on simultaneously is in a folder of the same name adjacent to _branch. I can alter dependencies, run separate IDEs, or claude code in each folder/branch. Commits too!

How to use git worktree and in a clean way Discover git worktree, this git feature you wish you would have discovered years before and how to use it in a clean way

YES! Use git worktrees. Helps to use this script that uses copy-on-write to clone other gitignored files (e.g. node_modules): morgan.cugerone.com/blog/how-to-...

Ergo the solution: visiting an old website that doesn't have HSTS (or one that I haven't visited in the last year), which allows the browser to finish the handshake and follow the redirect to the portal sign-in page.

I just fixed a wifi connection issue by going to geocities .com. 😂

I'm out at a brewery. My laptop connects to the wifi fine, but nothing loads. I curl -vv stackoverflow and it complains about a self-signed certificate. Shoe in for a captive portal, and HSTS prevents the redirect from working.

Wild. Meta is constantly demonstrating how little regard they have for privacy, their users, and the law. Also disappointing that Android lets any app listen to an arbitrary port exposed to the internet in the background with zero notification to end users.

I could see this being useful when authoring UI components that are consumed by others and need to adapt to the content. E.g., a fancy dropdown that might need to hold space for each item if any one of them has some optional element (checkbox, image, etc).

Same here. It's a useful tool if you think of it as a normal tool instead of as a magic wand. They're definitely not software-engineer replacements, but they're good enough at writing code in many contexts that they save me time on stuff I don't want to spend time on.

What a shame it'd be if people started using the website that lists the locations of these license plate reader cameras to find them and vandalize them.

Yeah! Those are template literal types. Super handy for all sorts of things. You can even (ab)use them to create utilities that convert properties on an object from snake_case to camelCase or similar.

1 kwh just isn't all that much energy. The wholesale rate averages about $0.03/kwh, and providers generate a profit on that. The rest of what you pay is for transmission and maintenance, not the energy.

Now do bitcoin and air conditioning.

Doesn't actually matter if you look closely at the chart. Ignore the total capacity here for a minute and consider instead the delta between the capacity and the actual usage. For most of this chart, the usage is very near the capacity. Recently, not nearly as much.

Hidden Threat to Democracy Slipped Into Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful’ Bill The bill passed in the House included a provision restricting the courts’ ability to enforce orders.

Buried deep in the text of the more than 1,000-page bill is a measure to restrict the federal courts’ authority to hold officials in contempt if they violate court orders.
