"Iceland’s economy is outperforming most European peers after the nationwide introduction of a shorter working week with no loss in pay, according to research released Friday.
[...]
Researchers found that productivity stayed the same or improved in most workplaces, while workers’ wellbeing increased “dramatically” on a range of measures, from perceived stress and burnout to health and work-life balance."

Cool, I managed to reduce my tiktok screen time by half in recent months 😎 Hopefully I can get those numbers down even more inbthe coming months.
Rockbox on my Sansa c100 was probably my best experience with portable devices. Reading entire books as torrented txt files and playing pokemon red at like a quarter speed was primo.

i think a radical paradigm shift might help here:
make publishers manually add links to responses and discussions that they wish to elevate.
one interesting model for this that i’ve seen is a site where every article contains in its footer an email address, and if you have something to add to the conversation, you email that address, after which the author *might* manually add your comment for everyone else to see.
this also discourages responding to a comment instead of to the article.
Excited to write some code to this track tomorrow 😈

Documenting a prediction: This will receive an Ig Nobel in 2025.
Certainly is of the ilk of “achievements that first make people laugh, and then make them think.”

It'd be cool if all work came with royalties instead of just wages. Like what if the code I wrote a decade ago was still bringing in a few bucks here and there :P
It's cheaper and maybe more accessible to host a conference in #VR and get everyone to buy headsets rather than airplane tickets to another country.
Manufacturers should have some sort of out of the box config you could bulk order and send out to people
This week is more writing than code and is brought to you by the "Cool Runnings" themed energy drink I bought at the Chinese grocery store by my house. That place has all the Good Stuff™️
I'm genuinely so excited to not have to worry about RAM all the time. It's like a weight lifted off my chest.
I caved and got the beefier GPD Win 4 with 32GB of RAM so I can stop suffering from OOM errors killing applications several times a day. TT_TT
LOL at first it couldn't get past the LUKS decryption after rebooting but it might just be the zen kernel that's being weird
Having a relaxing day so far so gonna play the "update my system packages" roulette and see if it gets worse :P
Yeah, I silence notifications by killing Mako with systemctl 😎👍

why name a microchip some boring nerd shit like 6502 or 8086 when you could call it Socrates' Daimonion, The Whisperer in Darkness, Bit Muncher, or The Sand In Here Does Math

"Not Invented Here syndrome"? Oh, yeah. I'm familiar with that. I call it something different, though.
The real test will be to see if my non techie pals could get absolutely any use out of it. :P
I'll need to play with it more but hopefully this could be an easy alternative to the cloud based AIs with cloud based "artifacts".
With Agregore you can generate the app entirely offline and publish it to the #dweb and keep a lil library of built apps for reference.
