“Every language offers a different window onto the world.” 🌍
Irish poet Ailbhe Ní Ghearbhuigh introduces us to 5 beautiful Irish phrases that offer more than just a glimpse into the Irish language. They invite us to see the world a little differently.
Sometimes, discovering a new way of expressing an idea can open up a new way of seeing it. From poetic turns of phrase to feelings that are difficult to capture in English, Irish offers its own unique window onto the world.

Swift Testing traits are a phenomenal way to configure tests and suites with behavior without nesting and excessive boilerplate.
This week we shipped a trait that lets you override task locals in your tests with a simple one-liner: pointfree.co/blog/posts/209-…

i'm obsessed with AI DIY projects.
my favorite one right now is this broccoli farmer in hokkaido, japan using Codex to run his 100-hectare farm
this guy never studied agriculture, never inherited land, started out as a civil servant.
but he wanted his farm to run better, and instead of paying an engineering firm he couldn't afford, he just built the tools himself.
here's what he's built on his own:
> remote control of his greenhouse vents from a chat app, wired up with an esp32 board, a motor driver, and cloudflare workers
> a bot that checks each greenhouse's temperature and opens the vents when it gets too hot
> satellite crop-health data laid over a map of his own fields
> an airtable base linking his plots, tasks, materials, and sensors
> wiring diagrams of his electrical panels, generated from a photo
stuff like this used to be locked behind machinery and engineers only the big agribusinesses could pay for.
but this legend just breezed past all of it with a laptop and Codex lol
