Hello, I’m a Finnish programmer working in insurance. 
I’m interested in usability, home automation, games, trains, planes, OpenStreetMap, and other stuff too. I’m also trying to find ways to do better work while keeping work relatively stress free.

Suomen käytettyjen pyörien kauppapaikat on vähän kämäsiä. Joten tehtii parempi: https://pyoratori.com

Pyörien myyntiin suunniteltu, helppo lisätä fillarit (fillaritori-importtaus), hyvä haku ja hakuvahdit.

Palautetta otetaan vastaan 🙏

PS. Ei aprillipila...

pyoratori.com – Käytetyt polkupyörät

Etsi käytettyjä polkupyöriä, osia ja varusteita. Suodata hinnan, sijainnin ja kategorian mukaan.

I don’t know if it’s a meme, but so many Oscars winners go “I want to thank my spouse and kids who now hate me – I know it’s been hell!”

Sure, I get it, but sheesh 😅

I’ve probably said it before, but I find it hilarious how all staff in IKEA is always super friendly and helpful. And then there’s the restaurant kitchen that’s run more like an army. Staff don’t fuck around and the customers are not to fuck around either. State your order, move!

But I also want to emphasize that this is the worst microwave I’ve had (it came with the house.)

- no way to quickly select 30 seconds
- no way to “add 30 seconds”, for example to quickly go to 2:30. You need to turn the knob
- the knob is shit. To get to 0:30 you need to twist it ten times
- you can create a preset, but if you recall the preset and then change the time, the preset will be changed 🙃
- no real buttons, just capacitive “buttons”
- … even to open the door 😫

I'd *really* like to replace our microwave, because Bosch can't seem to design a timer dial to save their life. I could probably do it, microwaves are pretty cheap? But I can feel the 20-year-old me, living on macaroni, roll his eyes pretty hard 😅

over a year ago, i gave a talk at the xoxo conference about a mural, a mcdonald’s, and a man. (but it was also secretly about life, and legacy, and meaning.)

finally, i’m blogging the full story, with behind-the-scenes details, and a video of the talk.

i hope you enjoy this read. https://cabel.com/wes-cook-and-the-mcdonalds-mural/

Helped a food delivery robot cross the street. I hope they’ll remember when the you-know-what day comes

Wish Microsoft had a KPI for the time it takes to launch Teams, load the calendar view, click on a meeting, and join the meeting.

I think we could do better than two minutes!
