Why have you lost interest?

Fair question. We're not quite ready to go into full open beta yet, but we also don't want to keep teasing folks who have been on the waitlist for over a year and are eager to see our progress. We want to provide high-quality supp

The G14 looks pretty good - I hadn't checked it out before. It's slightly thicker and heavier than the MPB and I'd really like to go lighter rather than heavier if I were to switch. If gaming were a priority for me though, so

Yeah, yabai is the one I've had the most success with and I'm a fan of it! I actually still use it for faster desktop/workspace switching. I've ended up finding that for me personally though, it feels slightly better to

I switched from a Linux laptop to a Macbook Pro for after about 5 years on Linux. The initial reason was that my last employer required us to use Macbooks. I now have the option to use whatever computer I'd like and (for now at least)

You're correct. I had assumed it was the "i" and "l" that were giving the "something is off about this text" feeling, but I just opened up some sample text to try to figure out exactly which characters are

I can relate to GP's feeling here. When I first installed Berkeley Mono and looked at some code in it, I had the same reaction: the spacing between characters looked inconsistent in some words. I think that some other monospace fonts d

It seems like an issue with the way GitHub populates the dependency list. I believe all of those repos are actually dependent on the package named "sol" in NPM: https://www.npmjs.com/package/sol

To add to the stories from this plugin: Years ago, I had this installed on the family computer and my sister was writing a school report on weather in Google Docs. The plugin as it existed then did not affect the document as she was editing

I love the F-91W and wore one for years before switching to an Apple Watch. I don't see myself switching back to the Casio, but I do miss it sometimes and wanted to bring as much of it over to the Apple Watch as possible, so I put the

I share your lack of interest in using this specific product because I also prefer something closer to plain text notes that I manage for things like this, but I do think this is a more interesting service than just "a database with a

I just found your comment on another thread where you said that you wanted to find Ira Glass's video on "taste" but now it's been long enough that I can't reply to that comment, so I'm replying to this complete

It's a pretty big shift from browsers like Chrome and Firefox, but I really like how Qutebrowser handles bookmarks (and "quickmarks"). It's very similar to what you're describing.

That's a great thing to say :) And I'd like to second it: Sway has been great and I'm stoked for this release!
