#til about Braess' paradox. The idea that adding roads to a traffic network can make it less efficient.

#TIL that blowing vs sucking the same spot on a harmonica produces notes that are roughly a half-step apart, while adjacent blown/sucked notes are roughly a whole step apart. I always wondered why I couldn't play any melodies on harmonicas because there would always be some notes I just couldn't find no matter how hard I tried, and now I know the answer isn't some tricky block-holes-with-your-tongue technique like I used to think.
I always knew blowing vs sucking produced different tones, but I thought that they were whole-step transpositions of each other such that any note in one modality would appear somewhere in the other.
My wife showed me this fact and when I asked where she learned it, she said she just figured it out herself...

The built in calculator app on the iPhone can do all sorts of conversions.
Long-press the icon at bottom left and you get a pop-up menu. Slide the toggle on and the default $ to € currency converter appears. There’s a bazillion other currencies available too. But you can also choose among 15 other unit conversions, like weights, energy, force, pressure.

Turns out docker already has facilities for securely running commands on a remote host via tcp socket.
Wonder how this fits in with platforms like komodo or portainer that have their own core agent model for managing remote servers 🤔
