Thanks for the input! I can pass that along. I'm not as connected to the user research and design teams, so I don't have any helpful insights to provide about the evolution. We _do_ serve the video through YouTube by default, but

Neat language. Looks like a fun project, and I totally get that your previous work is generally owned by the folks you did the work for and therefore non-public. I can ask when I next meet with my manager, but I can say from my nearly 5 yea

Thank you! I'm happy that we're able to help.

A couple of things: one is that there is additional legal/compliance stuff to deal with for each additional country (EU might count as one, when it comes to that), but the bigger reason is that we wanted more overlap in working times.

Yeah, unfortunate for us that you're stuck in Sweden, but I hope you're able to find a good next project!

Khan Academy is still hiring, though our focus is backend and full-stack engineers right now[1]. I hope you're able to find new work soon! This is an odd time for us. We're an online education non-profit. With all of the school cl

As features go, this didn't prove to be super successful (it's no longer shipping with Firefox). I do still think it's a valuable interaction style for being able to activate less-frequently-used features all from the keyboar

This is cool, and it's great to see you work on this (and thanks for open sourcing!) One more bit of prior art that might be interesting to you: I worked on the Mozilla Bespin project a long time ago with Joe Walker. Joe was also reall

Roam has a number of features that are different from workflowy (and a number of similarities, to be sure). The bidirectional linking and sidebar features make a huge difference, and I haven't even gotten into the new "query"

I exchanged a couple of tweets with Robin about this. I think this app is really cool, and I didn't want to get nerdsniped, but it seems to me that this could be built using webapis today. So you could have a cross-platform compatible

I'm not sure what you mean by "intelligent" specifically, especially as it relates to the topic at hand. People are vulnerable to all sorts of cognitive biases, somewhat independent of "intelligence".

I don't think this is clear cut. React has been around for more than 6 years. According to the latest State of JS survey[1], 72% of respondents have used React before and would use it again. That number is 7% for Svelte. Svelte has a

Assuming you’re using SQL or something else that’s portable for your data, the app is just a standard app in a container. It would be easy to move elsewhere, or even to just deploy to a different Google Cloud service.

Thanks for the comment! A couple of things about this... 1. the Go team is working very hard to ensure that there are no such compatibility issues. Code written for Go 1.0 should still compile with Go 1.14 beta today. 2. It's possible
