Alexander Zaytsev @zaytsev.io · 27/11/2025I agree. Even had the comma in the first draft, but in the UK they traditionally omit punctuation in statements like that, so I decided to remove it. Otherwise I’d have probably kept it. 010

Alexander Zaytsev @zaytsev.io · 18/11/2025Piece of an unfinished project — v2 of my Dnipro tram map. In v1 (cv.zaytsev.io/projects/dni...), it isn't obvious where the city center is. The big ring grabs way too much attention. In v2, there's a subtle grid with central streets and green areas, which makes finding the center much easier. 000

Alexander Zaytsev @zaytsev.io · 11/11/2025I wanted a budgeting tool that wouldn't force me to add extra stuff (categories, accounts, etc.) each time I added an expense. I also wanted tracking to be meaningful. Knowing I spent $97 on coffee last month was useless. I just wanted to stay within my means. That's exactly how it works in Sintra 111
Alexander Zaytsev @zaytsev.io · 31/10/2025In 2019, my friend and I built a budgeting service. It's called Sintra. We barely marketed it, and it's been quiet for a while. But people still find it and tell us they love it. So we've been working hard to add an English version to make it accessible to more people. Can't wait to share it soon! 030

Alexander Zaytsev @zaytsev.io · 23/10/2025Also, since 2021, Polish law requires drivers to yield not only to pedestrians on the crossing, but also to those entering it. These changes worked miracles. Drivers stop politely even when there's no police in sight. 100
Alexander Zaytsev @zaytsev.io · 23/10/2025TIL that in Poland, the fine for failing to yield to a pedestrian on a crossing is PLN 1500 (~$410). If you do it again, it's PLN 3000 (~$820). That's ~50x / 100x more than in Ukraine (~$8). 110
