iOS app seems to be coming back to life.

Okay, now they also updated the status page.

Dissolving an LLC is a in ideal case a multi month process. It's often easier and cheaper to just keep the LLC as zombie instead of trying to dissolve it.

I don't even see much reason to use Cursor. I am used to IntelliJ IDEA, so I just downloaded the Claude Code plugin and basically now I use the IDE only for navigating in the code, finding references and reviewing the code. I can't even remember the last time I wrote more than 2 lines of code. Claude Code has catapulted my performance at least 5x if not more. And now that the cost of writing test is so minimal I am also able to achieve much better (and meaningful!) test coverage too. The AI agents is where the most productivity is. I just create a plan with Claude, iterate over, ask questions, then let it implement the plan, review, ask to do some adjustments. No manual writing of code at all. Zero.

Same here, I have a lifetime license. And it works on both MacOS and iOS. It's a small indie app (1-2 devs I think).

I am pretty sure in this case even Claude or ChatGPT would give them the correct answer quickly or at least it would point them to the right direction (the busy-timeout pragma) with 5 minutes of work.

This is not the case of debit cards in Europe. Debit cards are tied to bank accounts. Most people only have a debit card or don’t even know what a credit card is (or what the difference is). We just call them “cards”.

I have a 10km walk with some elevation in the nearby woods, I do it several times a week if possible (it takes me ~2 hours). I listen to podcasts during the walks. A few times a months I try to do a fast pace ~20km walk in mountains. Currenly I don’t have issues going 30km fast pace without stopping. A few times a year I do multi-day long distance walks (with some 50-60km days). It seems to bring me a lot of inner peace and better sleep.

I don't think it's either "vibe coding or nothing" choice you have to make with AI. I am part of a team working on a complex Kotlin backend. I have been experimenting with Claude recently and I have been amazed how well it can pick up the existing patterns used in the project and create new code if given reasonable instructions. And it writes great tests too (something that would take me a lot of time and kill my motivation). It has been a great productivity boost for me. Of course we review the code in PRs, we test it but in the end it does the job in less time and saves me from doing tedious work.

Exactly. The compression level of DNA is magnitudes better than anything we can even come close to. DNA usually doesn't even contain specific counts (like 5 fingers on hand) or sizes of organs and so on - these are given by the processes that run in parallel and cause the cells to hit spatial / chemical / electrical or other limits. It's like putting lots of house builders on specific places where the house should be and each one would just keep building a wall until the he hits another one. There is no compressed house plan, it's a compressed "engine" that builds the result.

That brings back memories of me using an XPS 13. In theory it was a great notebook, but in real world it has lots of annoying issues. I then bough a Macbook and never looked back.

Death is by design and is a vital part of evolution. I don't have issues with trying to make our human lives a bit longer (and preserving same quality of life), but achieving biological immortality would open a lot more problems.

I don’t think that’s true for modern isolated (passive) houses built in EU standard. And heat pumps don’t need to be air based, a lot of them transfer heat with water radiators inside the floor.

iOS will not fully charge your battery during the night - it will top off the battery just before you usually take it off the charger in the morning (it learns your usual schedule + it probably also makes sure the battery is ready based on your alarm settings).

That's the theory of Panpsychism.

Minimal. Most houses have thick walls and there is a lot of accumulated energy - the air reheats quickly after closing the windows.

Instant transfers are the default method and there is no charge in Slovakia. But if it’s over few hundred Euro then it will usually downgrade to regular SEPA (usually next day).

As far as I understand it there are multiple levels to this. One of the mechanisms is that the cells don't necessarily know where to stop or where to fold - but as everything is being done in decentralised manner the cells reach boundaries of other structures and this will then "shape" the structure. It's an extremely efficient data compression where the instructions many times don't include specific measures or counts (e.g. of fingers) but are more about just timing or symmetry breaking. Imagine construction workers being told to just keep making a wall until you hit the other wall (and the other wall is being built with similar instructions). The limits can be spatial, chemical, probably bioelectric...

Capacity to suffer.

It had an irregular structure (Air Force described it as octagonal) and also balloon does not usually spin - especially not if they have a payload attached.

There is an unconfirmed blurry video on Twitter - I can't find it now. It looked like some sort of rotating plastic trash bag :-).

Apple Podcast app is pure garbage, it doesn’t even sync your library correctly between devices (e.g. marking something as played).

Very fascinating read. Thanks.

1Password (or even plain Keychain) can auto-complete all your debit/credit card numbers. But yes - I prefer not to type it in. For security reasons I am only entering cards directly if the website is using a bank payment gateway. Otherwise I am just generating a random one-use debit card through my bank app.

The Apple Mail app on iOS and MacOS is pretty decent. No need to use the official Fastmail client (if you are on Apple and prefer the simple Apple alternative).

AFAIK in most EU countries you can easily look up owners and also tax data. For example in Slovakia I can query any company name and see the "owners" with their address and also the revenue and other tax related data for each year.

A cell is not a machine in what most people would understand under this word. It's almost like it's full of agents that each have their own goal and through endless evolutionary selection these goals between those agents became interconnected in such way a complicated way that they play this "orchestra" that is a cell. But when you look inside it's a huge biological mess. There is no central part that controls everything - cells and multicellular organisms are hugely distributed systems.
