Jean-Louis Gassée, a co-founder of Be Inc. is IMHO a fantastic writer and just released his memoir „Grateful Geek“. Personally, I love to think back to the times where OS releases were a huge deal for the tech world – that was exciting

Thanks for sharing! Looks awesome! If it’s Markdown however, in my personal opinion, it should show the Markdown syntax, too, and not hide it. E.g. the headlines should have the editable ### next to them. Too many editors that "support

Industrial electrolysis is roughly 70% efficient. Generating electricity from it with a fuel cell is about 40%-60% efficient. There are (realistic) newer approaches to improve on this (up to 85% for fuel cells). And yes, it’s infinitely bet

> Ts is dynamically typed unfortunately What do you mean, specifically, with this statement? The point of TS is to give JS static types.

Some of it is very convincing! The first parts about spirituality especially. But for me it really fell apart and became an obvious GPT text later on — for instance the part about what Adobe should do is completely nonsensical.
