hutattedonmyarm··on Guerrilla bike lanes: San Francisco makes illicit infrastructure permanent (2016)
In the city where I live (which is _usually_ pretty bike friendly) the plow moves the snow from the car lanes onto the bike lanes a lot of the time :/
hutattedonmyarm··on New 14‑inch MacBook Pro with M6
Still running my M1 Pro as well, no plans on upgrading for the next few years
hutattedonmyarm··on Automating my 35mm film scanning pipeline
I find it somewhat meditative to scan and edit my 35mm strips. But I also don't very often do that, because I don't take _that_ many pictures and some of them digital. So I shoot maybe 3 rolls per year
hutattedonmyarm··on Suits Are Better Tech Than Modern Clothes
> Buttons > Zippers

I disagree. Yes, the failure mode of buttons is better. But the opening/closing process of zipper is much more convenient/faster than for buttons, and I dress and undress a lot more often than I need to replace a button or zipper.

I own a lot of zip hoodies, some of them > 10 years old, and for none of these the zipper has ever failed. The only zipper that have failed on me are on bags (e.g. messenger bags or similar)

hutattedonmyarm··on California farmers are struggling to sell grapes as demand for wine drops
There are some excellent non-alcoholic ones, but also some terrible ones. Maybe see if you can find a few different brands
hutattedonmyarm··on The darker side of being a doctor
In the same vein: there’s the fantastic book

This is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor by Adam Kay

hutattedonmyarm··on iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max
Still using my 12 Pro Max as well. Battery is still okay-ish on mine. Not good, but I don't have to actively worry about it. Will be looking forward to all the fancy new features when I replace it in 3-4 years
hutattedonmyarm··on All grown-ups were once children, but only few of them remember it
Might be a Vivaldi problem. It has "Computer Modern Sans" in Firefox which seems to be perfectly legible
hutattedonmyarm··on Twitter Viewer – View Twitter Without Account
They're starting to block that and are starting to require logins for old reddit
hutattedonmyarm··on AI-Generated GitHub Copilot “Autofix” Allowed Compromise of Snowflake's Jira
Oooh, I misunderstood. I thought you were seeing this: https://jsonc.org/
hutattedonmyarm··on AI-Generated GitHub Copilot “Autofix” Allowed Compromise of Snowflake's Jira
There _is_ a json variant with comments, so that’s what you’ve seen. Not all parsers support that though
hutattedonmyarm··on Eclipse: The Xiaomi 17 Ultra Confuses the Moon and the Sun
Eh, there are plenty of third party camera apps which do that (See: Halide and their Prozess Zero). I doubt a built-in one will go that way.
hutattedonmyarm··on Pixel Watch 5
> GPS is covered by the phone that you're going to be carrying anyway.

I leave my phone at home when I go for a run. Connect my headphones to ma watch (which as my podcasts and audiobooks on there), remove the house key from my keychain and carry nothing with me besides key, watch and headphone. Feels so much better than having a phone with me

hutattedonmyarm··on Why tiny JPEGs look different in Chrome
Using different icons for different pixel densities seem reasonable, especially with the density being a supported descriptor on which icon to use: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/...
hutattedonmyarm··on Beef and dairy drive 41% of biodiversity damage linked to global farmland
Oh, I didn’t realize that I dropped dead years ago when I stopped eating meat
hutattedonmyarm··on Launch HN: Keet (YC S24) – An app to create video courses on anything
That logo for „introduction to topology“ feels incredibly off. The Möbius Loop doesn’t connect to itself in the back
hutattedonmyarm··on Why did we wait so long for the bicycle? (2019)
Jenny Draper has a good video on the history of the bike as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7C9YUwPtGk
hutattedonmyarm··on Anti-fraud tools can't keep pace with robocall scammers
I get them maybe 3-4 times a year. So, not _never_ but not a big problem either
hutattedonmyarm··on Anti-fraud tools can't keep pace with robocall scammers
This would be an enormous invasion of privacy. Other countries have a lot less issues with spam calls without these measures
hutattedonmyarm··on I Tried Building a Real App with AI. It Took a Year
To add another datapoint: My weightlifting app used to be a one-time purchase a few years ago and have since switched to subscriptions. As a result I have received a lifetime pro license. They’re still selling lifetime licenses for almost a hundred dollars (yearly subscription is ~$30). I still have access to every pro feature. Not bad for a $5 I got ten years ago
hutattedonmyarm··on An Engineer's Guide to USB Typе-С (2024)
> I always end up picking a lot of dust out of my usb-c ports on my phones

Lightning has the same issue sadly

Interrail also includes a travel day to and from your home country though
hutattedonmyarm··on Leak of San Francisco Police Drone Footage Exposes Reality of Urban Surveillance
They paywalled the article, that’s why you can only see the first paragraph
hutattedonmyarm··on Interrail: 6,379Km and 13 Countries over 7 weeks
I went on my first Interrail trip last year. It was a single country trip though. Can absolutely recommend it!
hutattedonmyarm··on We're Living Through the AI Utopia and Can't See It
> When one of Google's own engineers went public saying LaMDA was disturbingly capable, he was dismissed as confused and then fired.

Blake Lemoine claimed that it was sentient. That's quite a stretch from "disturbingly capable"

hutattedonmyarm··on Map of Metal
Just in case you're still following this thread: I just came across "Rabbit Junk" and they're exactly what I was looking for
hutattedonmyarm··on SimCity 3k in 4k (2025)
Mainly, so that I don't have my games spread out over too many platforms :)
hutattedonmyarm··on SimCity 3k in 4k (2025)
This sounds super interesting, but I'd much rather buy it on GOG than on Steam or itch.io. Any chance on releasing it there?
hutattedonmyarm··on Map of Metal
Thanks for posting this comment. I have the very same itch and now a bunch of music to check out!
hutattedonmyarm··on Wire to Replace Signal as Standard in the Bundestag
I'd say that Threema has better UX than Signal, but both are fine. Neither great, but fine
