Do you ever feel like you need a break? No matter how much you love what you do, it can wear you down over time. Whether you’re working for your dream company or building your own future unicorn, there are moments when you need to step out and breathe. It’s totally normal.
When I feel this way, I like to turn to nature. Something about getting away from the hustle and bustle and returning to nature resets everything. It’s not always possible though and more than often I feel myself wishing I could bring nature to me. Thankfully, there’s an app for that.
Enter Earth FM. It’s kind of like Spotify but for nature. It originally launched as a web app a few years ago where you could zoom around the globe discovering diverse sounds in different countries. Now the team are back with a dedicated mobile app.
With the new app you can listen to over nine hundred different natural soundscapes from around the world. Want crashing waves to fall asleep? Sure. Want to feel inspired by the sounds of the rainforest? You got it. Alongside that, you can learn about the different ecosystems that make up each soundscape by zomming around the interactive map.
What’s even better is it’s business model. Earth FM is a non-profit organization that funnels money into the protection of our natural world so that those who come after us can enjoy it long into the future.

The latest robot friend to grab the internet’s attention is the Neo Beta. It’s built by 1X Technologies, a company backed by Open AI and most recently raised a whopping $100 million in funding. It’s designed from the ground up as the company’s first foray into home robotics after a decade of building for factories.
Neo is designed for general purposes, such as tasks around the home like cleaning, moving furniture, carrying objects, and even pouring a beverage. All of these tasks are performed autonomously using a built-in AI system. Neo stands at about the height of an average human, can lift double its weight (66 pounds, by the way), and can run up to speeds of 7.5 miles per hour.
Understandably, one of the big questions about AI-powered humanoid robots is safety. The last thing humanity needs is a human-robot war akin to Terminator or, on a lesser scale, a robot giving you attitude. To this effect, the Neo bot has been specially designed to avoid posing a threat (that’s what they all say…). It’s considerably lighter and softer than other competitors. It’s clad in a jumpsuit-like material instead of metal or hard plastic and has cushions where human muscles would be.

Ever spent hours manually copying design elements from websites, wishing there was a faster way? It’s a common struggle for designers and developers who just want to get the job done without all the tedious effort. The process of sifting through HTML, replicating styles, and tweaking them to fit your needs can turn a simple task into a drawn-out process that stifles creativity.
That’s where HTML to React comes in. This browser extension is designed to make your workflow more efficient by allowing you to take HTML elements from any website and instantly convert them into React components. It’s not just about copying—it’s about capturing inspiration and seamlessly integrating it into your project. You can even export these components to Figma, making it easier to bridge the gap between design and development.
Using it is straightforward: enable the extension, select the part of the page you want, and you’ll get React code ready to use in your project. If you need to customize the component, the Magic Patterns editor offers simple tools for refining the elements to suit your exact needs.
