Bought the Berkeley mono font for the terminal and Cursor. Pleasantly surprised by how much more enjoyable those are now 🤗 Ligatures make code more scannable and readable, too. Would recommend. usgraphics.com/products/ber...

Vanity metric, but still kinda exciting that there are only 50k sites with more authority than nslookup.io

The domain name isplookup.com dropped last week, so I made this online tool. It shows your IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and their internet service providers. You can also enter an IP or domain name to find their ISPs. Not as fancy as some startups, but I hope it'll have a tiny impact on many people :)

I was a tech guy in 90's. There was a feeling amongst the older guys that us new breed were idiots because we were only working on the application layer and didn't understand the 1's and 0's. Many of my dads friends believed you shouldn't be able to drive a car unless you knew how to fix it.

I don’t understand why people advise junior developers to avoid using AI. They lack experience, but they’re not stupid. Surely they’ll eventually figure the right design. Besides, reading code and evaluating its quality is a super valuable skill, which you’ll learn much faster with AI.

I learned to slackline. It was very easy. All I did was get on it, take a few steps, fall and try again. 10 min per week for 6 months. Now I tell myself to just start and keep going whenever I need to do something daunting.

I hired a remote private tutor to improve my understanding of human anatomy. We talked for an hour, and I learned more than I had in at least a few months of high school biology classes. He was very knowledgeable and super patient with me. The cost? $0.32 What a time to be alive!
