Another one for your list: Nylas Mail. We straight up would have not shipped it without Electron and the CPU it uses to sync is on-par with apps like Apple Mail & Thunderbird.

At Nylas we made a huge bet on Electron-- our desktop app Nylas Mail actually started as a fork of Atom Shell before the project was rebranded to "Electron." To be honest, we would have never built this app without Electron. It al

Here's a blog post we wrote on RRULEs that just highlights one part of why calendars are hard: https://nylas.com/blog/rrules/

We have a prototype at Nylas which is pretty awesome, but haven't had the time to really finish it. (Focus is important!) Calendar apps are deceptively hard. Very tricky UI problems alongside super complicated data transformations you

The complication risk of modern LASIK is actually nearly identical to wearing contacts every day.

This is like saying door locks are pointless because you can break a window and climb through. Protecting media copyright isn't a black or white thing like crypto. It's about compromises to drive behavior and consumer spending wit

Let me know if you have any feedback about Nylas Mail :)

Do you have sources/data for any of those claims?

Small suggestion: it would be awesome if the sketch homepage listed examples and had a quick screenshot or two. most people go to react.rocks and it looks like crap. https://react.rocks/tag/ReactNative I totally unders

If you're looking for an alternative open source email platform, check out Nylas Mail. It's built in React+ES6 with a rich plugin system. https://github.com/nylas/nylas-mail (I work at Nylas.)

We're getting closer and closer with Nylas Mail, although still have a long way to go! https://github.com/nylas/nylas-mail' (I work at Nylas)

Can you share more details about what they're doing wrong?

Elon has talked about building an electric jet. Maybe something similar to Joby Aviation or Zee Aero but he wants it to be supersonic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yx3auTD85Fw

Looking into both-- thanks for the heads up. Edit: Fixed now. We should have an "A+" rating. :)

The comparison to Wave is actually kind of funny here, since Dropbox Paper came from the acquisition of Hackpad, which was a fork of Etherpad, which was a startup that Google acquired to integrate with Google Wave. It's a small world.

Hey-- I work at Nylas. We're transitioning away from cloud sync for almost all functionality. More info here: https://blog.nylas.com/nylas-mail-is-now-free-8350d6a1044d

We're using it really successfully to power the entire data layer of Nylas Mail. I figure if it's good enough for an email app (with gigabytes of text, >300k objects) then it should work for other apps too!

The ISS needs that much fuel to boost it's altitude due to drag in LEO. But the refueling of satellites by the X-37 is hypothesized to be at much higher altitudes where there is very little drag. These satellites don't need altitu

I'm pretty sure we're not going to send any capsule to repair the JWSP. It's going to be at L2 which is 1 million miles away from Earth, or about 3x furthest than mankind has ever traveled. It would take weeks to get there.

From what I've read, Shuttle also did quite a bit of satellite repair (like fixing Hubble). And the orbiter's cargo bay certainly was useful to transport many parts of the ISS. The Department of Defense still actively uses a space

Hey Scott-- how much of that usage was active memory vs cached/swapped? Do you also run apps like Slack or Google Chrome? How does their memory usage compare? Was this during initial sync (very resource intensive) or at a steady state?
