It depends on where you live. In my country I would never take a call from a bank at face value and would always expect they give me a phone number to call back, and that better be an institutional number. Phone fraud is rampant.

Ha, last winter I lost my phone while snowboarding in the last 300-500m before mountain base. I noticed because I was listening to music with my airpods when I got to the bottom the music had gone silent. Thankfully I had my Apple watch with me, so I immediately got off the board and start running uphill while incessantly spamming the "ping my phone" button. At some point I saw in the watch screen it briefly connected and then immediately disconnected again. I realized somebody had probably grabbed it and skied by me. I went back running to the chairlift while still spamming the button and finally found the person who had grabbed it, a few seconds before he got into the chairlift. I felt that day that the watch investment had been worth it hah.

Progress is really good, in this RubyKaigi talk there’s a great demo showcasing the official rbs with vscode integration https://youtu.be/4E4TRgMDYqo

This is great, except for the additional query each time a record is instantiated in the rails concern. That might cause some performance problems in high traffic.

Perhaps it’d be better to attempt the insertion and change the id only if there’s a colission detected with a uniqueness constraint

You don't want to bomb the Chernobyl exclusion area.

So it's a perfect place to station troops and military arsenal

Actually, gliders with water ballasts have the same L/D full or empty. The difference is that they can fly faster when the tanks are full, but they don’t travel larger distances

Well, leaving aside the problem of taking off (which today is improving thanks to electric motors), I guess one could say that gliders[1] are the closest we can have to human-powered flight and it's highly efficient in terms of energy consumption

Argentina dodged that bullet. It was heading the same way.

It's so sad that such great work can bring so many negative repercussions just because the project creator's decided to blatantly rip off Trello's assets.

The project would be under such a different light had they decided style it themselves... I think they're so much better than this.

This story reminded me of the guy that had a magnet implanted in his pinky finger, who was then able to sense electromagnetic fields and other stuff

What's a good navigation app for Android that works outside the US? (Scout doesn't)

I have a couple of apps in my phone (Navigator and Waze), but the UI is really cumbersome compared to Google Maps. I use them because OSM maps are better in small tows in my area than Google Maps, plus you can keep offline maps.

Interested in work as a ruby, javascript developer. I'm very passionate about technology. I'd be very interested in a position in Berlin, Germany or similar.

thanks, I'll give it a try. When I briefly tried NERDtree, my issue was how to switch back and forth between the tree and the opened files list

As always, what loses me on vim is that I'm not sure what's the easiest/best/common way to have a "project directory" open and quickly open one of the files inside that directory... no basic tutorial seems to tackle this, yet it's essential to migrate from any other editor you use as a programmer...

Camel cased would actually be javaScript
