Getting home to dogs and feeling their attention and unconditional love must be great!

Psychedelics are.. greatest thing I have ever done. Though I wouldn't call them a ritual.

New bug: I don't think "mark as read" in the pop up in the notifications is workin..

I agree with this sentiment. Having reminders that things can still improve is good, as long as it moves us to action now.

Nevermind guys. It is working it seems. Not sure what happened. My bad!

Though replying to comments via the Inbox screen does not seem to work?

Really? I feel like they have worsen their numbers after disabling sms support. I had a few people with whom I could chat on signal. They all moved away. I now have 0 ppl. I still have it installed but ya..

This is honestly goals. I don't have a partner but I dream of this. This is better than sex in my opinion.

I think signal is really only missing usernames (which should come soon) as far as features are concerned. And sadly, I don't think it will change much. I think signals problem is not really feature wise but adoption wise.

Signal needs more marketing. It needs a bigger user base. And I honestly don't know how to change that. Maybe some really top notch marketing strategy, with beautiful diagrams and text of some made up scenarios explaining the perils of using Instagram and whatsapp..

I hate complexity. A few years ago, I wanted to add some feature to some personal code of mine. But I just couldn't figure out how to do that without rewriting a significant portion of it to allow for that. There was another feature (let's call it feature 2) that just added so much complexity to the code that made things hard. I had an absolute stroke of genius: Just delete feature 2. This probably sounds stupid but I felt like a goddamn genius. Just deleting something solved all my problems.

@[email protected] , there seems to be a bug in the quote at the top of the page. If you refresh the page (via F5 or whatever), you will see that it actually loads 2 quotes, 1 which disappears immediately and another 1 which is the one you see. It is probably doing a request twice?
