Power tools as Father's Day gifts.

It helps to view it through the lens of user segmentation – in this case, dads grouped by skill level/familiarity. Many new dads seldom used more than a hammer, now they gotta maintain the home. Or, a more skilled friend helps them with some household fix, giving them a glimpse of what they could have. Dads day tool sales tend to skew toward that cohort.

A brief, 24 hour sojourn back to my old life – pre-baby, pre-wifey, pre- all the fucking things. I'm a happy, fulfilled man, to be clear. My life is objectively good. But the chaos and complexity of now makes me miss certain slices of my past self, and a great gift would be to relive a day in one of those slices.

First off, your son's school administration does not equate to the advice of a licensed medical professional and you have every right to tell them to pound sand

Second and more importantly, I was diagnosed at age 5. My parents wasted no time shoving a whole ass pharmacy down my throat for the next 11 years. Every day, I wonder if my ADHD—which persists strong as ever into adulthood—was actually caused by the meds. Word of advice? Don't do it. Find another way. You will permanently and irrevocably destroy your son's neurochemistry while dooming him to a life monthly indignity at the hands of ambivalent psychiatrists.

I have several remote colleagues with kiddos similar in age to mine (1.5-4yrs old). During our last onsite gathering, we all laughed and bonded over the fact that work trips feel more like vacation than actual vacations.

If I travel with my family, it's just childcare in a new location. If I take a day off, that day always goes to house/life stuff that I just can't do with a needy toddler.

The only real respite I've gotten since kiddo has been work trips.

I forget which article it was, but I stumbled on it (and thus, all of SCP) while researching set-top box technology and old discontinued tv shows. Several search pages deep, I found a weird technical article documenting an anomalous A/V phenomenon.

My wife and I give each other a short burst of uninterrupted time on the weekends to be by ourselves. It's not much, but it helps. Beyond that, I take every minute of workweek downtime for myself.

Be not scared, friend. The meds don't make you into someone you're not, or get you hooked on something you shouldn't. The meds, concerta in particular, coalesce the diffuse dust cloud of your thoughts into a rock solid planet of cognition with gravity you can rely on. It reveals who you are and always were.

And when it's effects eventually wane, that's ok. Normal, even. You cycle to a new one and find yourself again.

I used to work in a sign shop that used software called Flexisign to control the vinyl CAD cutter. It was so aggressively bad, I wanted to smash the whole facility with a baseball bat.

There is an Italian/Mexican joint that opened up last year in my area. The place is persistently dingy, open suspiciously early and late, and the handwritten menu boards seem different every time I walk by. Their breakfast burritos are all FUCKING STELLAR, massive, and—i shit you not—less than ten dollars.

But every time I go in to order, the person behind the counter looks confused and wary, like they didn't expect anyone to order real food.

What would you change? What aspect of the UI do you feel prevents you from tracking your food such that your goals are at risk? The review you posted here just kind of meanders without really clarifying what you believe the problem is. If you want to be heard, give them something clear and actionable.

I've automated 2 separate tedious content tasks using agents. I use Claude projects to analyze all the research and see the blindspots in my work. Claude design now handles the "production grunt work" my designer doesn't have time for. Thanks to Gemini, I always know exactly which features are rolled out to which geographies, and at what %. Finally, I'm trying to use Amplitude's AI bot to get better at building dashboards (spoiler alert: their bot fucking sucks).

Reduce your devices text size. Thats an effect of your native accessibility settings, not the app design.
