Twitter just anounced a new longer format tweets notes are coming. No longer you will be bound at 280 characters. Look at the screenshot I’ve attached. The user interface is so clean, so minimalistic, your eyes immediately focus on what really matters, no clutter, no multiple calls to action…. Just UX perfection. 🤦♂️ If you’re […]
I can’t start this rant without quickly telling you about my first trip to Japan, back in 2009. Back then I was left speechless by its train and metro system. From punctuality to ease of use. 13 years ago you could go to any station in Japan 🇯🇵 and buy a plastic card with which […]
You can spend hours researching, coding, testing, then writing a blog post to share with the world. Or you can simply send a tweet 🐦 Recently I shared a small piece of code on Twitter and it got lots of love. I don’t think I’ve ever had such engagement. At the moment of this writing […]
I was reading Write plain text files from Derek Sivers and yes, you gotta love text files. How could you not? I agree with most of Derek’s points about the greatness of text files. I have been slowly, over the years, converting myself to a textfile believer. I have built backends using text files and […]
I was reading the post from Kash Be anonymous and it resonated with me. Anonymity is a tricky thing. It’s helpful to think of it as a spectrum instead of a black and white “status.” I liked this bit in particular and how Kash explains that the average Joe simply doesn’t care. Almost all my […]
I would’ve never imagined how hard it is to find a mechanical keyboard with a Spanish ISO layout. Sure, you can find crap on Amazon but I’m looking for a mid-level entry. I have a budget of 100€ and let me tell you, it’s hard. First, because most of the already manufactured/built are ANSI layouts. […]
Back in March, I purchased a Raspberry Pi (a hand sized computer). I mostly use it for blocking ads, tracking, and malicious scripts and domains for the sites I visit. If you’re into it, check out Pi-Hole. I’m spending a few days at my parents so I thought I’d also pack the Raspberry Pi, it […]
I’ve witnessed countless occasions of people accessing the subway without paying a ticket 🎟 I’ve seen them squeeze behind someone before the doors close, jump over the door/fence, have a friend open the door from the inside… you name it. Every time I see it I’m bothered, I’m bothered because most of them you can […]
The only thing that would make you exempt from not being conscious of other people is if you would leave in the freaking mountains in the middle of nowhere, alone. If you live in a town, or city you should feel morally obligated to not be a pain in the ass to others. Unfortunately in […]
I’m calling BS on the whole pricing system for the water supply in the city of Barcelona 😤 I don’t even know how to begin my rant, I’m moving from anger 😡, to frustration 😭, to disappointment 😞. I have been comparing my parent’s water bill to mine. Get ready. ♻️ I’m conscientious about the […]
