pretty cool but has zero sauce. just look at rebirth for how to have a point of view.

good lord this is over-intellectualised nonsense. it's not complex or ancient, it's actually part of the meiji era aping of western cultural semiotics, and the OP seems to misunderstand the etymology. just say itadakimasu before a meal and gochisosama after. maybe a few days later, if someone else bought you the meal: 先日（昨日）はごちそうさまでした

when i open a new tab in warp now it defaults to their agent and not my actual terminal. i'm going to have to switch back to something else, do you like wezterm?

same, OP you should put the source image and controls in a floating popover that's static while the rest of the page content is scrolled, or a sticky header or something.

koreader is wildly unintuitive (just try to look at battery statistics, and marvel that it's in a submenu of a submenu with only 2 items) -- but it is very powerful. once I got used to it's quirks I can't go back. Things i use all the time on my phone-sized ereader :

1. calibre sync built in 2. customised estimated time remaining/progress bar 3. custom fonts and margin support 4. hardcover.app sync

this is the worst kind of pedantic engineer comment that seems to infest this site. they're obviously talking about the frontlight. dark mode reflects much much less light back at the user through the lightguide because the dark bg absorbs more of the light.

the datavis here and type hinting (even if it's just default swiftmath) is really nice.
