  • 👾 Restocked stickers.

  • 📲 Tested some cool wallpapers on iOS 16 beta.

  • 👯 Attended an in-person conference.

  • 🥘 Co-organized Geek Brunch SG.

Interesting discoveries

1) Contactless buttons for pedestrian crossings! Now you don't have to keep spam-pressing it? 🤷‍♂️ *waves furiously*

2) Someone made an MRT train tracker on a PCB board 🤯

I made MRTracker, a physical MRT map that lights up locations of trains in real-time : singapore — www.reddit.com Welcome to /r/singapore: the reddit home of the country Singapore.
