From my understanding Europe send a lot of plastic to Asia for recycling. Perhaps US does as well.

I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of that plastic ends up in the ocean.

Sam Chamoun explains that the Bible doesn't say that Christians have to support Israel (or any other country, for that matter):

I'm a bit of an old-timer now (almost 45), but I enjoy a lot of the classics on GOG. And at a price that can't be beat. Totally no interest in playing modern games.

In case of many commits with also many complex merge conflicts, I often find it easier to just:

1. Abort rebase.

2. Squash all my commits into a single commit.

3. Rebase on target branch again.

Seems a bit like GNUS [0].

I read on Twitter this week that someone made such an interface on top of GIMP.

No, for a long time I never clicked. But since I keep seeing the freaking ads, I decided to click on them, because from what I understand they have to pay money for each ad click.

> The AI product rollouts in the last two years have been some of the most aggressive and user hostile product rollouts in my entire life.

I’m getting extremely annoyed by the Base44 ads I see on YouTube every other video.

First I pressed skip all the time, but the ads keep popping up. So now, every time I see it, I click on the ad and then immediately close the site. At least I can make their aggressive ad strategy a bit more expensive.

There's apps that can simulate color blindness, which can be used for testing purposes.

This is such an app for iOS / macOS: https://michelf.ca/projects/sim-daltonism/

Seems in Libanon the IDF is currently targeting hospitals and first responders [0]. Sometimes people are just evil.

Regarding the USA-Iran war, the president of the USA has threatened to destroy essential infrastructure (e.g. electricity) if Iran doesn't surrender in 48 hours. Which, from my understanding, is a war crime. I think Trump is perfectly ok with bombing schools and hospitals.

At least AI seems very useful to quickly write unit tests for the stuff I work with these days, like Angular & C#.

P.S.: I loved Glider and Glypha, great games!

On iOS I have seen ads with very small close buttons, so clearly intended to cause people to miss-click. Buttons should be 44x44 pixels, it’s recommended in the human interface guidelines [0].
