I'm not exactly sure who is behind all the Fossify apps but I'm impressed with their momentum.

Frontend in software development. If you know, you know.

When joining a virtual meeting, how close to the meeting time do you join? in c/[email protected]

I join when the meeting reminder pops up and I click "join", right on time. I don't like small talk, no point in being early.

Yeah, hence the "lol". I thought the article headline was worded oddly.

Do you have any tips or tricks to fall asleep? in c/[email protected]

My SO has been using ASMR with some ear buds for years. It occupies her mind and helps her relax enough to fall asleep. Great stuff.

She also needs her fan... Or some other form of white noise. It may be an ADHD thing.

I'm intrigued. And although I read the article, I'm not entirely sure who or what this is for. It's cool, but... what?

The general attitude that "British English is correct" and Americans are wrong, is one of the most absurd things I've ever experienced. English is inconsistent enough as it is, so don't claim your inconsistency of spelling and pronunciation is somehow superior. Believe it or not, withing linguistics you don't make the rules.

Is there a search engine that blocks websites known to create low effort/AI generated articles? in c/[email protected]

Kagi! You can block websites so they don't show up. It'll also flag websites that contain a lot of spam or ads.

Wellll I don't entirely agree. Ever been to IKEA and had a cart full of furniture? It takes every bit of strength my strong body can manage to take a turn without sliding out of control sideways and knocking over five display units and three children. The non-turning back wheels make turns more manageable. Carts should work like cars, front wheels turn, back wheels don't. I submit this comment as sacrifice.
