We once rebuilt an old system and went with the simplest thing that could work. It ran great for the first few weeks, but then all kinds of edge cases started creeping in. We ended up spending more time patching things up.
Reading the full complaint really hit me. This wasn't just a kid talking, he was asking for help. The model gave smooth replies, but it didn’t really understand.
It sounded like it did, but there was no feeling behind it. For a 16-year-old, that kind of response might have felt like someone truly listening.
I’ve always found Firefox’s / quick find feature incredibly useful. But having to click on a link after selecting it always felt awkward and interrupted my flow. This little tweak is brilliant because it removes that extra step with just a few lines of code. If browsers allowed links to activate automatically once selected, navigating with a keyboard would feel so much smoother. I sincerely hope that becomes a standard feature one day.
I’ve long been a fan of the MX Anywhere series. They’re light, reliable, and the side buttons make web browsing much smoother.But recently, mine started having sticky buttons and the grip began to peel. I tried fixing the micro switch myself and it turned into a real headache. Now I’m debating whether fixing it is worth the effort or if I should just grab a new one.
What I really wish for is a mouse design more like mechanical keyboards modular parts, replaceable shells, customizable buttons. That kind of setup would finally make me feel like my mouse is meant to stick around for years, not get tossed at the first sign of wear.
I’ve felt pretty lost before too, like stuck in this maze of endless paths. That line about not chasing tools but getting closer to the person you want to be really hit me. A lot of times it’s not that we don’t plan enough, it’s just that we rarely slow down and really listen to ourselves. This approach feels simple but grounding.
This is a pretty cool idea. Using passkeys to encrypt files means you don’t have to remember passwords but still keep things secure. What I really like is that each file gets its own key, so even if one gets exposed, the others stay safe. If this kind of setup gets integrated into tools we use every day, like photo apps or cloud storage, it could be really useful.
I’ve been using social media less and less over the past few years. Especially short videos, they just make my brain feel foggy. At first I thought it was just distracting but later I realized it was affecting my mood and focus. Now I mostly use it to post photos and write more on my own blog, mainly for people I know. There is less interaction but it feels a lot more peaceful.
I really admire stories like this. Reaching $1M ARR without any funding is rare and feels real.
It shows what building something truly takes. Late nights, tough moments, losing users. It's not about big bursts of growth but staying consistent, solving real problems, and growing revenue little by little. There's a lot to learn from that.
I use AI to take meeting notes too, and it really makes things easier. I can focus more on listening. But sometimes it changes the vibe a bit, like we’re all just talking to a bunch of bots. Now I only use it when I’m leading the meeting, and I always ask if others are okay with it. The tool is helpful, but real human connection still matters.
I learned this the hard way. Even a great prompt won't work if the context window is off. If key information is missing or important history is buried too deep, the model will still fail. Now I always explain the problem clearly and set the scene before letting the AI take over.
