With some tinkering you can also route arbitrary addresses to plus-aliases (@example.com -> inbox+@example.com, where "[email protected]" would be your "main" address). This correctly sorts incoming mail into folders just like normal plus-alias usage would (if those folders exist), but in your inbox, the mail will still show the original mail-to (*@example.com, not the plus-alias version), and when replying, it'll use the correct address (not the plus-alias).

Support helped a lot when I tried to set this up. They initially said it wasn't possible, then came back a while later with a correction.

I had the same issue specifically with git, for the same reason. You can configure git to not use a pager by setting core.pager to an empty string.

After experiencing Nintype on iOS many years ago, I can't use any other swipe keyboard anymore. I'm stuck using the stock keyboard for typing, and sometimes (rarely) swiping a word or two when I din't have two hands available. Swiping (with one finger) when holding my phone with both hands just feels unnatural and sluggish. I wish Apple had just bought/sherlocked Nintype and integrated it into the stock keyboard.

Unrelated to the main point, and probably too late to matter, but you can access repo activity logs via Github's API. I had to clean up a bad push before and was able to find the old commit hash in the logs, then reset the branch to that commit, similarly to how you'd fix local messes using reflog.

Sadly, it hasn't been updated since 2024 and is slowly breaking. Haven't found a good replacement yet.

For anyone else copy pasting the gradients into dev tools to look at them: The second one is missing the # sign on the first color.

And yes, both oklch gradients look pretty weird while the oklab gradient looks nice (if you can accept it going through grey).

Cool setup, but the choice of Obsidian is kind of weird in this context (in an interesting way, see next paragraph). Instead of opening a subfolder of the Hugo project in Obsidian, one could just open the entire thing in VSCode or a similar IDE, enjoy a good markdown editing experience, AND use git integration and the integrated terminal (and possibly set up automated tasks) to run your local testing and deployment workflows.

Note that Obsidian's markdown editing experience is _different_ from (but not necessarily better or worse than) what you'd get in a typical IDE. So while the choice seems weird to me, it absolutely makes sense if the author prefers the feature set that Obsidian offers. Being supported by so many different editors is one of markdown's strengths, after all, and this kind of editor-portability fits right in with the other parts of "Fully Owned" from the blog post.

That might be because Kagi currently has "only" 43,508 members, according to their live stats. That number might be too low for you to be able to expect someone in your personal circle to already be using and talking about it. The number being this low isn't a bad thing, though. Kagi is already profitable and the number is growing, that's all that matters for now. There's a free tier that gets you 100 free searches (I'm testing it myself right now, haven't used it enough to really have an opinion on it yet).

Regarding your point b: Heavily disagree. Even ignoring HN's seeming love for Kagi, surely you must have noticed the narrative about how AI is fixing search? People asking ChatGPT or Bing instead of googling things? Why would they do that if they were satisfied with Google? Also, Google search quality worsening has been a common news headline for years now.

By only doing clones to get data from Github, you're losing anything stored in LFS. Run `git lfs fetch --all` inside each repo after cloning to make sure you have the large files, too.

CC-BY-SA is a perpetual license, so the author can't just decide that they don't want StackOverflow to have access to the content anymore.

What's creeping me out is that there's zero mention of how the nano-texture display affects pencil use.

The nano-texture on the standalone display Apple offered a while back was very fragile (if I remember correctly)... I would imagine touching it, let alone dragging a pencil across it, could very quickly leave visible scratches?

If not - will this wear through Apple Pencil tips like they're made of rubber?

In addition to the already mentioned Command Palette, macro expansion is also available as a quick fix, either by clicking the light bulb icon when it appears, or triggering it via hotkey (Ctrl+. by default).

I forgot what people were calling it but this is almost exactly the same idea as that trend where you ask ChatGPT to generate pictures, continuously asking for "more" of some aspect of the picture (make this dish more spicy, etc), only hidden by the fact that instead of simply asking it to make the code more complex, they're naming specific (but in the end, arbitrary) steps of what ChatGPT would still interpret as escalation.

To me, pausing to reflect is less of a problem compared to getting distracted and losing my place or having to read the same paragraph over and over again. Back when I had a 40+ minute train commute (and was working in the office all week, pre-pandemic), I used to listen to audiobooks on 1.5-3x, while also reading the actual book at the same time. That worked wonders for me, and it's easy enough to pause an audio book with headset controls to reflect on something.

Same here. I get irritated when I see people put down their phone without locking it, only to realize theirs will auto-lock.

That said, from now on I'll probably have auto-lock turned on when flying.
