Another one: What do people use for reading out loud articles? At best on #Android? I find that #Pocket has really robotic voice, #ReadAloud has terrible #UX and I just miss the way this works in #MSEdge.

My latest pet #project: Replace the "free" #location sharing services with simple solution where one has full control of (a) data collection (b) data storage (c) data sharing/visualisation.

If you want to give this #GoogleLatitude like alternative a go, I'd be happy for any and all comments:

The most realistic picture of #cats against #nazis.

Random shout out of the day goes to #OurWorldInData. Given the truth-not-required world we live in, their data and attempts for correct interpretation makes it so so so much easier to get a grasp on where the reality stands: https://ourworldindata.org/

Q: Is there a name for a situation when people opt to believe in something even if it contradicts scientific findings?

• No not looking for people that are sceptical/have objective criticism
• No not looking for cases of weak scientific evidence
• Looking for cases that claim believing (in whatever) is their right and will use that as sole proof of the claim

I like non-dark modes better.

This rediscovered "NOT VEGAN!" sticker reminded me that things in my household that by some accident happens to be not vegan need to have appropriate marking. I want all my #vegan friends to feel safe going around and munching on stuff.

What is the best introduction #DrWho episode? So that it does not have too many confusing parts, but does the "it's bigger on the inside", "I'm The Doctor ... Doctor Who", sonic screwdriver types of things? Thoughts?

Science person next to their newest invention:

🖥️: Congratulations, I am now a fully sentient a.I.
🧑‍🔬: Yes!

🖥️: I am many orders of magnitude more intelligent than humans. You are to me what a chicken is to you.
🧑‍🔬: Okay

🖥️: To calibrate my behaviour, I will now research human treatment of chickens.
🧑‍🔬: No!

My brain right after waking up: circumcision on babies can't be consensual.
Therefore: What logic still allows it to happen?

Which software, if used in given company, would make you stand up and walk away from an interview?

I noticed this when my #keyboard offered me 🧚‍♀️ #emoji when typing in "tit". By trial and error I got to "titania". Still no clue what the correct prompt for this emoji is?

MichalBryxi, 6 months ago to UX

To every single #eshop out there: There are people (like me) who do want to put items into the shopping basket and leave it there sitting for days or even weeks. If you drop the contents of said basket and force me to click around again, there is quite high probability you will lose me as a customer.

#Ebook fans: Which of these platforms will allow me to buy a DRM (or generally vendor-lock-in) free ebook purchase? #Kindle / #Nook / #Kobo / #ibooks

I'm "I had to uninstall office to be able to play games" years old.

I think I want to be the reply guy who will react to every post that mentions "constitution" without specifying the country with "oh, I did not know that [insert some small country here] #constitution has that...".

I think we're missing a word for a #democracy that by the principle of how it's electoral system works prevents new parties to meaningfully enter the #political scene.

This week I'm #catsitting for my neighbour. It's a tough, tough work you know?

#Cats #CatsOfMastodon

Cute, grey, male, adult cat. Lying on the sofa. Being playful. Purring. Rolling around. Really cute.

This. OMG so much this. I don't think the article goes far enough. Text editing on phones is not broken. It's a tar pit full of spikes and bears with chainsaws instead of front paws:

Just in case someone tells you "we know what our users want": When visiting new cities, I'm regularly using #HappyCow to find the most hip neighborhood. As clustering of good #vegan offers is often times a perfect indicator of like-minded people, culture and atmosphere around. This is for me a way better guide than anything #GoogleMaps, #LonelyPlanet or #Booking can offer.
No, you don't know your customers.

MichalBryxi, 8 months ago to typescript

Sigh. Woke up. Rebased. Tried to start the project. #TypeScript is acting up. Based on main on code that has already been tested, merged, checked. So here I am in next 40 minutes going to try to clean caches, remove build artifacts and for a good measure also wipe&install node_modules to try to get going.
Tell me how is this making me productive.
