_tariky··on The British sitcom that swept through the Balkans (2023)
As someone from Bosnia this is 100% true.
_tariky··on Skopje’s eccentric post office (2021)
Yugoslavian culture is amazing. My parents lived in Yugoslavia they and all other relatives that lived there say that it is the best times of their lives.

It is called: Bratstvo i jedinstveno (Brotherhood and equality)

_tariky··on The subtle art of designing physical controls for cars
My Skoda Superb(2015) have very similar knobs for controlling temperature and when pressed it turns on seat heater.

From the first time I used it. It felt so natural and intuitive to use.

But unfortunately touch screen infotainment system is pure garbage.

Health does not have a price.

Owners of coops know how different are those organic eggs. Totally diffrent color of yolks, also they have totally different smell when they are cooked.

_tariky··on Eggs US – Price – Chart
Perfect time to build chicken coop.

Also eggs price is increasing globally witch is not good.

_tariky··on Taking a $15 Casio F91W 5km underwater
I own legendary GW-5000U. It is amazing to see those cheaper alternatives are as good as 5000U.

I'm wondering is there any other brend except Casio that has watches as amazing as those are.

_tariky··on Show HN: I made a app that uses NFC as a physical switch to block distractions
It depends on the type and manufacturer of the NFC chip. I recommend using SLIX2 chips; they are a bit more expensive, but they work perfectly.
_tariky··on Japan's original decluttering guru (no, not that one)
I find it interesting that people with a lot of storage space tend to fill it with things they don’t need. My father is the king of clutter he has 500 square meters of storage filled with trash he doesn’t need. When I tell him to throw something away, he just says, “I might need it one day,” but that day never comes.
_tariky··on By 2028 cloud free companies are going to be most valuable
I somehow think that the most valuable companies are those hyped by the media and investors. That’s the reality, and it’s pretty sad because hype has nothing to do with real value.

Personally, I like to self-host everything I can. I know it’s not the most efficient way, but in the end, I love tinkering and owning my data.

_tariky··on Is the world becoming uninsurable?
In Yugoslavia, in 1969, one of the biggest earthquakes occurred, destroying several cities. After that, the country’s leaders decided to change building codes. Even today, although Yugoslavia no longer exists, the countries that adopted those codes have homes capable of withstanding earthquakes up to 7.5 on the Richter scale.

My main point is that if we face major natural disasters, we need to take action to mitigate their impact in the future. As a foreigner, it seems to me that Americans prioritize building cheap homes over constructing better and more resilient ones.

_tariky··on Sweden brings more books and handwriting practice back to its schools (2023)
Right choice is to use e-ink tablets, not to switch back to text books.
