Stapler: I remade a 32 year old classic Macintosh app  ⌘I  Get Info

blog.gingerbeardman.com/2024/08/10/stapler-i-remade-a-32-year-old-classic-macintosh-app

The idea is you set up a Stapler Document per project containing related apps, files, folders, etc. Then you can open them all at once by launching the single document. Each document contains a list of aliases that can be managed, inspected, launched using the app. The key time-saver is that if you launch a Stapler Document directly, all the items in its list will automatically be launched. Cool!

I actually wanted that! And this one is a remake of a classic app. Cool.

Why RichText facets in Bluesky

pfrazee.com/blog/why-facets

Today in "our novel form of NIH," why does Bluesky use the richtext facets system instead of Markdown?

// slightly simplified
{
  text: "Hello @bob.com",
  facets: [
    {feature: "mention", index: {start: 6, end: 14}}
  ]
}

Store Code Discussions in Git using Git Notes

wouterj.nl/2024/08/git-notes

Code discussions contain relevant information. Isn’t it a shame that we
keep these in the centralized GitHub/GitLab servers, far away from our
decentralized Git code? As soon as we move provider, we’ll lose all old
discussions! And how do you ever find the pull requests back from 5
years ago? Symfony has implemented a lightweight solution to this problem
years ago using a less-known feature of Git: Git Notes.

Introducing linkblocks, the Federated Bookmark Manager

www.rafa.ee/articles/introducing-linkblocks-federated-bookmark-manager

linkblocks is a tool for helping with this kind of deep exploration through the web.
With linkblocks, you can do three things: You can bookmark what you find on the web, you can structure your bookmarks, and you can exchange bookmarks with other people.
Organizing bookmarks works by linking them together, just like on the web. You can follow links to explore the websites you and others have collected. Bookmarking and linking on linkblocks is like publishing your own small website, saying “This is the good stuff”.

CommunityWiki: Be Bold

communitywiki.org/wiki/BeBold

Be bold when editing pages here. There are few times when you need to ask before making a change. In general you should “ask” by just making the change. If someone doesn’t like it, they will undo your change.

By the same token, don’t take it personally when others boldly change what you wrote. And don’t be offended if someone undoes your change with minimal explanation; feel free to ask if you don’t understand the reason.

Конечно же не обошлось без типографа Лебедева и нелепой типографской раскладки Бирмана. Я уж надеялся без них обойдётся. А про главред расскажут?

HTML email designer

designer.sendune.com

HTML for email is probably the hardest code to write. Even a teeny-tiny deviation from the rules will break the email in untold combination of os/desktop/mobile clients.

It's mid 2024. Almost 50 years since email was invented and 35 years since HTML was born. A 'basic-open-source-HTML-email-designer' must be a solved problem, right? We thought so too.

Sadly, that's not the case.

There are a few decent open source email designers but they carry dependencies that make them cumbersome to embed within your app. That's why we decided to open source our HTML Email Designer.

The SENDUNE email designer focuses on simplicity and ease of use. It is light-weight. It does pure HTML - no intermediate code wranglers like mjml. There is no lock-in of any kind. Save HTML output as a template and use with ANY email service provider.

График и динамика цен аренды однокомнатных квартир в Казани.

kazan.restate.ru/graph/ceny-arendy-1komnatnih

График и динамика цен аренды однокомнатных квартир в Казани. Статистика обновляется Restate.ru в автоматическом программном режиме 1 раз в 2 недели, исходя из более,чем 1 млн. актуальных объявлений по всей России.

Что мы видим? Прошлый (2023) учебный год привёл к значительному скачку цен на квартиры где-то с 22к до 30к, что в принципе вполне сезонно. И этот пик не сошёл до сих пор! Более того, с апреля 2024 пошёл ещё один скачок цен, в этот раз вызванный, я так понимаю, подорожавшими ипотеками. Скоро будет ещё скачок, вызванный новым учебным годом, а в ноябре будет ещё один из-за КФУ. Полагаю, близость саммита ШОС не даёт ценам упасть.

Что имеет. Средняя цена -- 35 килорублей за однокомнатную квартиру. Исторический максимум! Вот за такую цену примерно придётся мне снимать...

Doctors Are Not Trained to Think Critically - Mad in the UK

www.madintheuk.com/2024/06/doctors-not-trained-to-think-critically

Medical research is largely funded by the pharmaceutical industry, papers ghostwritten by the pharmaceutical industry and influencers paid by the pharmaceutical industry. Regulators are not independent either and so it is that most doctors have become pawns in a system, used to deliver the drugs which provide the fundholders with the maximum profit. So far, the system has failed to eliminate corruption and bias, for one reason only, that is there is no such thing as a free lunch.
