After living in multiple countries around the world and working remotely, I discovered that the best working cultures are asynchronous ones. An asynchronous working culture is a model where team members collaborate and complete tasks on their own schedules, without needing to be online at the same time or respond instantly. This means employees can work when and where they please for maximum productivity, often times companies who have succesfully implemented async communication have teams with

Every five minutes or so, my entire Windows machine would drop off the network for a few seconds — not just WSL, the whole host. Browser tabs would stall, calls would drop, and it only happened while WSL2 was running. This is the story of finding that, plus the WSL memory-tuning landmines I hit right alongside it. The flapping The symptom was a host-wide network blip on a short, regular interval, correlated tightly with WSL2 being up. The cause: WSL2's default networking mode creates a virtual NAT switch on the Windows side, and on this machine that virtual switch was intermittently conflicting with the real network adapter — enough to cause the whole host to briefly renegotiate its connection. The fix was switching WSL2's networking mode entirely, via .wslconfig (on Windows, not inside the Linux filesystem): [wsl2] networkingMode = mirrored dnsTunneling = true autoProxy = true Mirrored networking makes the WSL2 interface share the host's actual network identity instead of sitting behind a separate virtual NAT switch. You can confirm it actually took effect (rather than just trusting the config file) by checking, from inside WSL after a full restart, that its network interface holds the same IP as the Windows host, that the default route points at the real LAN gateway rather than a private NAT range, and that loopback carries mirrored mode's marker address rather than a 172.x NAT address. If any of those don't match, the setting isn't actually active yet. Worth noting: this requires a reasonably recent WSL version and Windows build. If you're on an older one, mirrored mode may not be available at all. The memory landmines, found the hard way Separately — and this had actually caused full VM crashes, not just hangs, at one point — I'd been carrying a few .wslconfig settings that looked reasonable and were each, individually, a documented source of instability: An explicit kernelCommandLine override. Resizing swap past a few GB, which forces WSL to rebuild its virtual

SpaceX will likely attempt to catch Starship back at the launch pad on its next flight.

Related to this thread [1] which Jabber clients not only detect MitM tampering when a valid cert is used in the middle but is not the cert on the server, meaning an entity obtained a certificate, used it to MitM the connection and the client not only rejects this alternate valid certificate but also alerts the user to the MitM.

The UK MET office recently redesigned their site, adding a lot of additional whitespace, scrolling, and animations. This significantly reduced its usability for me, and left me wanting an ‘at a glance’ weather site. I made https://brolly.sh , a minimalist, plain text weather forecasting site. You can use it to view weather from around the world, with: 7 day forecast; Previous day log (so you can confirm it definitely was cooler / hotter / wetter / drier yesterday!); Hourly rain, wind, temperatur

Building your solar panel system with some extra capacity makes managing it a bit easier.

SpinWin is an open source menu bar app to visually rotate any individual window. You can rotate / spin as many as you want one by one. I was scrolling reels when one came on where the content creator suggested "turning the phone upside down" for a portion. I was sitting at my mac, and decided to see if I could find something that did this. To my surprise, nothing exists, so I decided to build it. Turns out macOS doesn't provide any public API to do anything like this, so I wound up using the Acc

A company spokesperson said that it's "still exploring all our options for the best approach."

I recently found the Brooks Falls bear cam (Katmai, Alaska). It's become the calmest thing on my screen. It's peak salmon run right now, so it's basically bears and their all-you-can-eat salmon feast. But there's a bear that only fishes by belly-flopping at the salmon, and as far as I can tell has never once caught anything. I have no idea how it's still eating. A few others just sit in the water doing nothing at all. Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7ZrIDvqlic What's yours?

Kalshi claims the trailer is “defamatory” and contains “both fabricated documents and false and misleading statements.”
