Interesting. How's the performance on the Pi? I also have a Pi 4 running a few containers and thought about running Openclaw on it, but never got around to it because of performance concerns. I ended up installing Nullclaw which is simpler but much more lightweight.

Finally being able to build something I've wanted for years: an alarm app that wakes me up 1 min earlier each day until I reach my wake time goal. Not sure if there is already anything like this out there, but I don't really care. I've been learning a ton about native Android development and so far it's been a painless process to be able to wake up earlier.

I am a Product Designer with 10+ years of experience. I began my professional journey working at design studios and gradually migrated towards digital product design. My specialization came about through entrepreneurship, graduate programs and experience in tech companies, from startups to larger enterprises.

Although my recent role was managerial, I am deeply committed to maintaining a hands-on approach, leading by example to inspire creativity and excellence within the team.

I was laid off last month, so I'm exploring where I might focus on now and have been studying and experimenting a lot this month. Whether you're looking for a founding partner, aiming to elevate the design maturity in your organization, or anything in between, let's chat.

I think adding the 3D parallax gives the footage a very unique effect, and quite different from the traditional Ken Burns 2D scale and pan. I would say enough to make it deserve its own name, such as the sniklaus effect. Ken Burns is Ken Burns. This is something quite different, even though it may be inspired by KB.

About the related cake mix story: I recently found that the reason why the Betty Crocker cake mix increased in sales is dubious, if not false.

Apparently, sales went up because adding fresh eggs to the mix simply produced superior cakes — http://www.snopes.com/business/genius/cakemix.asp

I wonder how they are addressing the lack of standardization of NFC protocols, which has essentially prevented NFC from taking off..

Love this. +1 to permalinks, and would love to see better typography -- IMO replacing Tahoma with Open Sans Regular, or Light would go a long way. And perhaps a serif font for the planet name...
