If you use Google as spell check, has it gotten worse lately? Tapping the “Did you mean ___?” link looks correct at first glance, but the search box reverts once you tap into it.

Living in Chicago means you don’t need to follow sports for a home game to turn traffic or transit into chaos. So, I built a single-serving site that answers the question: Is there a home game today?
homegame.today/cubs.

Chicago Cubs — Yes | homegame.today
Yes, today’s game at Wrigley Field is scheduled for 6:40 PM.

I’m working on a project that displays Unicode characters like “☰ Trigram For Heaven.”
Turns out that the names aren’t available in JavaScript, so I added a dependency to fetch them. It’s kinda wild how much bigger it is than the rest of my codebase. 🤯

Upgrading to oversized towels at home ruined hotel showers for me. I repeatedly forgot to lower my expectations. Then my first shower of each trip ends with a disappointing reality check.

Today, I’m thrilled to share that Spotify has returned Podlink to my care! After four and a half years, Podlink is back with its original founder, and I’m excited about what’s ahead.

Opening Slack for the first time after a holiday break and seeing the ⚠️ icon over my workplace’s instance will always create a pit in my stomach.

On my flight today, I watched The Departed (2006) and M. Night Shyamalan’s Trap (2024) simultaneously via passengers in the row before mine. I may not have heard any of the audio, but I feel entitled to partial credit in Letterboxd.

I’m so unnecessarily annoyed with this article. After reading 1300 words, I don’t think the average reader could accurately articulate *why* Bluesky has taken a different approach to verification.
Bluesky is now big enough it has to grapple with a problem that nearly every platform before it has also faced: how to handle verification. I wrote about why its current approach is flawed, and talked with @hunterw.bsky.social about his valiant effort to verify notable accounts himself.
Bluesky has a verification problem
The influx of new users to Bluesky has opened up new opportunities for scammers and impersonators hoping to capitalize on the attention.

Nothing humbles me like losing something I was literally just holding. Spent hours hunting for my mug—checked every room, every surface, even the fridge. Eventually found it in the microwave, proving I still haven't quite mastered object permanence. 🤦♂️

I have a lot of fun shooting product photography of my partner’s ceramics, and it kills me that no one gets to see them in their hi-res glory.

Marvel Snap for PC ran just fine on my old Intel NUC—until updates made it lag. Thought it'd finally push me to build a real PC…
Until I realized I'm so Apple-pilled that I forgot I could just upgrade my RAM 🫠 Three hours and $50 later, I've got 4× more RAM, and problem solved!

Her, exasperated:

At some point, I started ignoring my laptop's Low Battery warnings. Que sera, sera. When it inevitably dies, I close the lid, plug it in, and move on.
However, macOS refuses to stop chiming every few seconds until I wake it up and log back in. Does anyone know how to solve this?
