Top tip for anybody trying to reach Snälltåget support via email: over the course of six weeks, I wrote to them twice in English, but got no reply. Today I used Google Translate to send the same question in Swedish: got a reply in under an hour! 🥳

This is mad: Third party wired iOS headsets need bluetooth on, thanks to the economics of Apple lightning connectors. 🤷‍♂️ (thread)

On a more positive note: I noticed and reported a Stripe Checkout regression, and it was fixed around 8 hours later. Pretty nice! 👌 (though the secret ingredient is to contact them via Discord, rather than the usual support route: stripe.com/go/developer-c…)

Good news: you can now read your colleagues' messages with the gravitas they deserve! The Slack desktop client has added support for Comic Sans…

I think DuckDB is starting to rival `jq` as my handiest command-line utility… cat payments.jsonld | duckdb -c "copy (from read_json('/dev/stdin')) to '/dev/stdout' (format csv)" (in fact, I should maybe just make this a shell alias)

Thanks to the person at @Webflow who added the trigger type and collection ID in all the new v2 CMS webhook payloads! 🥳 Zero thanks to the person at @Webflow who omitted the collection ID when retrieving a CMS collection item, meaning I can't re-use the data model… 😩
