Have you actually done an export of your Notion workspace? I looked at their options before using Notion and was happy they had a full export available - but then I actually went ahead and used it because they are putting zero focus into im

You can always pass in an iterator tracker via the following, much cleaner!; for (value, index) in arr.enumerated() { // Loop body }

Certainly not excellent - Obviously there is a lot that goes into it - but 20% would be closer to the average expected return on a VC fund like A16z based on the style of investing, not achieving that - or higher - would be a disappointing

I would imagine that 44% return went a long way towards the vaunted status A16z had. In that, while perhaps not expecting to stay at such a high level of return, it's news because it wouldn't have been expected that such a drop (t

I wasted two years on emacs. I write code, so I thought emacs would be the learn-once-editor-of-a-lifetime but it was just always an exercise in frustation and wrestling bad defaults. If your using it to write code, emacs is, by default, wo

"All data access had to assume a lazily loaded and incomplete data model" While this sounds good, in theory it leads to gross animations and horrific skeleton outlines which slow you down more than an initial load. I which they st

His language is beautiful and he has a way of writing that cuts to the base truth of a situtation, which side by side (i.e flowerly language AND truthful writing) seem like a contradiction, but I think it just highlights how talented he was

It runs linux so you could in theory run mutt or something like that to get emails in when your on WiFi. I've found with most of the homebrew-y stuff you need to create a launcher that draws the application to the screen of the reMarka

Could you DREAM of a world where DaringFireball posted an article disrespecting and demeaning Sir Jony Ive this time last week? What use is a pundit like this when they are on rails to just spin any and every piece of Apple news to protect

No problem. I think that feeling is extremely important when learning new things. It show's that you are starting to build a model of the problem space and filling it with things that were non-obvious to you.

That's an insane evaluation for 2m customers, most of which are probably playing with small "if-this-goes-im-too-scared-and-no-longer-a-customer" amounts of money. Robinhood are also hilariously inept; See the box-spread fia

Doubling down on a mac only editor seems super weird. At a time when Apples actions seem like they are de-prioritizing the line, Panic are going all in? It would seem a better investment to make the go to IDE-y thing on iPad Pro.
