I do miss Ecco Pro, Notion has been a decent replacement. If you want offline and caching, Dendron might be better. The apps are improving, but for now the web interface is pretty good for a cross-platform experience.

Some thoughts: the schema is only partially there, at least for me. I can read and understand the content, but if I'm removed enough from when I first read or stored it, I've lost the context in which I was seeing it and the relat

Great book! Graph databases are useful, but I'm not sure if they're still a great interface for a direct human interface. Problem is listing links and finding connections is tiring for us to do. That said, with enough automation a

Agreed. I've also found myself discussing how landlords - or at least professional ones - seem to be in a different social class than tenants, and the ones that aren't have been the most pleasant in my experience. I don't ent

"Peace broke out" is one of my favorite openings to the Monty Python Funniest Joke in the world sketch. This is well done!

I have taken git apart and learned it three times now, and it all makes sense to me. The commands however, never clicked. The terminology never felt intuitive, nor predictably applied. So I can explain how git works in great detail, but ask

The biggest issue IMO is that most software begins as a startup, and despite becoming big companies later, the startup mindset and habits don't really change. Before product-market fit, you don't really know what data you need and

Couldn't finish but I'm definitely planning to. Beautifully written, amazing to track the entire journey (almost) in a single page. Did not know what I was getting into, but the writing and concise explanations behind the thought

Well written. I didn't know this by name, but it's something I've noticed in my life - often the circumstances of an action, or even the circumstances of an individual explain an event far better than the individual themselve

Yeah you're right, but it's still the biggest information resource we have. Some sort of effort towards making Wikipedia more machine readable - maybe through parsing or automated synonyms - would really go a long way there.

This is super awesome - it's amazing all the things we can do with our equivalent of the library of Alexandria. Don't see enough projects using Wikipedia as a base layer, hopefully this continues! Would also love for this to be ad

Agreed about size when it comes to suing for patent rights. However, the problem with patent trolls is the same as copyright trolls: they send out unimaginable amounts of spurious notifications in the hope that some will pay. The spam reall

Feels like a bad idea. Shortened links often don't need the level of longevity blockchains provide, nor will they be able to afford the cost if decentralized storage with high availability.

Good point, and it makes me wonder if it's just a personality thing. Some of the best people I know are never obsessed with anything, and try to maintain things in moderation, while I (and many others) find it easier to be obsessed and

I hate the obsession with grades as much as anyone, but most parents are often mirroring the importance we place on them as a society. Disagree with a number of the sub-comments here, grades matter. Not eventually and not on their own, but

I really don't see that happening except in the very upper echelons of work. When there's more competition, the guy willing to work longer will always win, especially if the work is such that he can work longer without a decrease

I see how the title might mislead one into thinking that the author was about to outline his problems fitting V8 into a uC, but I don't understand the upset that he was successful. If successful, the streaming service with lack of relo

Agreed, with perhaps the exception of Apple. They've remained a platform, with a healthy amount of apps they own and operate outright, and sweeping control of their ecosystem elsewhere. Maybe not forever it looks like though.

I imagine some futuristic version of git where... basically git but they've got better merge algorithms after they've solve NP and P. You can sync to the trees of ships near you and catch up, and once in a while one of them gets t

Echoing a lot of the sentiment here, I wish math would simply use english (or natural language). It clearly seems too much to ask for a programming language, especially when it comes to pure math. At an undergrad math course, we were allowe

Nick's right here - as we operate shoreside (we're beginning to work on helping operations onboard vessels), connectivity is less of an issue. That said, maintaining realtime information for decision making does have to deal with
