  • Jacket doesn’t do shit for rain. Believe me, I’m an Aspie and I have too much sensory issues for getting out of home in bad weather. The day it rains is the day i WFH. All the problems stem from the fact that the jacket is too close to the body, generating sweat (and I already sweat too much without it), not to mention it’s not watertight. An enclosed velomobile would probably solve the problem, but I don’t think this sort of vehicle is legal in Poland and can guarantee getting to the office as fast as I’d on a motorcycle or even a moped.



  • I’ve tried OsmAnd, unfortunately it’s too slow for me compared to pretty smooth operation of GMaps. I also use Google Timeline very extensively, with tagging all visited places and snap-to-road whenever I can. So far I haven’t found any open-source direct replacement for Timeline, it can be pretty annoying at times (e.g. Google mangling already manually corrected routes and not telling me).

    I write 5 zł (5 zlotys, 5 PLN) or 5€ (5 euros, 5 EUR) because in Europe we don’t unnecesarily invert the currency symbol compared to what we speak. The following system, which I found on Wikipedia, would make the most sense:

    Exceptionally, the symbol for the Cape Verdean escudo (like the Portuguese escudo, to which it was formerly pegged) is placed in the decimal separator position, as in 2Image50.

    That’d be perfectly consistent with what we speak and solve the problem of fractional currency notation as well.
