The most important tools in history never started as “ideal”. They began as ones that were available.

@_paperpsych Love it!

@psam Yep agreed! Found the perfect visual for it 🤩. Here's how it's looking now: x.com/i/status/20302…

Next, opened figma and started assembling things together. I tried a type-heavy approach first, then tried putting mountain visuals inside the text, tried a few different layouts... nothing was clicking. The text component was there but the tshirt had no soul to it. 1/4

@_paperpsych There's got to be an element of 🏔️ Mountains/theme to convey that it it's a hike, journey and so on. And what's up there is beautiful.

After digging, found Yak, Ibex, & Raven to be amazing fits. I chose Ibex. It moves across terrain where most creatures can't go. Steady, patient, keeps on climbing. Small groups on difficult ground, far from the noise. That's our bitcoin builders too. Back to figma now! 4/4

@shutaro_arsdot same!

all my vercel preview deployments are failing😭 リリースタイミングに限ってこういうのってあるある？😭

@ajayprabhun @noth what's the Q for?

Chinnaswamy ticket booking kind of experience at the Nothing Store. Queue is around 300m long already 😂 @noth

Not sure how many of y'all have a, 'favourite tree' 😂😂😂 I do. It's at the Indian Institute of Science, and it's a sight for sore eyes. Why? 👇

Gemini or Chatgpt?

I vibe coded an interactive particle playground with opus 4.5 You can literally control particles using your hands 🤯 (three.js + mediapipe) Try it yourself

@RunwithBitcoin The Chase

Hola humans of #Bitcoin :) Any suggestion for the book title ? It's about the 'run with bitcoin' journey. ( I don't want bitcoin in the title) Thank you.

Kramer would've loved it

@fidexcode QBasic

In what language did you write your first "Hello world"?

I know Scindia has said that the #SancharSaathi is not mandatory, but there are still some things. If we allow this, we allow the government to push any application on to our phones. Today it is DoT pushing Sanchar Saathi. A new Aadhaar app was launched yesterday. Ministry of Health might want to push an anti-smoking app to our phones. Nitin Gadkari will mandate Digilocker on our phones so our driving license and documents are always with us. Once it starts, where will it end? You know what happened with Aadhaar -- it is voluntary but mandatory. It's the same thing - someone will ask you why you don't have this app on your phone. Our phones are our most private of spaces. Any mandatory installation is a violation of our personal space. I wish no apps were mandatory, and phone manufacturers weren't pushing bloatware. I wish we had more choices of operating systems without Google in them. I wish it were easier to install Graphene OS. But they're not our government. They're not accountable to us as citizens. They can't use statutory power against us. We can maybe use the data protection law to get them to delete our data. We can and should expect better from our government. We need to control and contain the usage of statutory power especially when it imposes on our personal spaces. It's claimed it's not doing surveillance now, but it could do it late. I don't believe Scindia. Vaishnaw said that DoT will not regulate OTTs in 2023. But DOT is doing that now. Why should we trust Scindia here? This is just one stupid app being forced on to our devices. But it's also the start of something new. Don't let this happen.

Almost every govt infra is infested with vulnerabilities routinely being exploited by malware and data thieves. You will often find govt websites distributing malware. But yes, govt plans to save us from malware by installing their own malware.

My problem with Sanchar Saathi is not privacy. I don't think we have it anyway. It's intrusion under the guise of security. Like, I do want the government to protect my home. But I don't want the government to place a cop inside my house.
