Ergo mech portable setup… 3 modes: 1. Full: best ergonomics. Takes about 20 seconds to setup. 2: Quick: busting out laptop quickly. Takes about 5 seconds. 3: Tiny: works on lap, plane tray, etc.

Looking at a decade of GitHub stars on one of my projects. It hit Hacker News front page twice. Pretty obvious when. But aside from that, it shows steady and remarkably constant organic growth. I have no idea how, and I'd like to learn more. How do you discover new projects?

16’ (~5m). Not good with heights. But mission accomplished.

Explored a few options for serverless TCP and @fly.io made this really easy! Aside from making it really simple, also has the benefit of at-edge deploys. (I try not to pick favorites, but it’s really hard when flyio gets everything so right)

Casio’s teeny little ring watch is ridiculous. Yet adorable. hypebeast.com/2024/11/casi...
