There was something about the writing in her email that felt.. loaded and questionable without enough factual assertions to carry her point. In Jeff Dean's email, he made one point that could be pretty salient: she submitted the paper

I spent time this week with Joplin. Why I won't be using it: * If I live in Markdown, I want to edit it WYSIWYG. Maybe that's wrong, but I don't want to live in .md code mode (for this reason, I miss Evernote). I author in Ty

Productivity hacks are the new startup hacks. (Kidding, not kidding... I'm more annoyed by "founder" specialness/pithy comments on Twitter than productivity hacks, though, I haven't seen a Roam submission in a few d

Good Q. Those seasons were so bad it killed — or at least severely diminished — the casts’ star power. Who’s still hot from GoT?

I have to check the list, but what I’ll be looking for is a community for entrepreneurs discussing Year 5, or 10+ experience topics. Most I’ve checked drown in startup 101 topics.

I remember seeing a show of his stuff at the Pacific Design Center in WeHo many years ago. Lovely.

I've been waiting for Apple to update the AppleTV (I gave mine to a deserving friend), so I replaced my aging Roku with a FireTV (for HBO Max). Works great.

So Medium wants my email to read the article, and when I give it email it says I have to upgrade to read the article. Shady.

I see Meet, but not Chat, and none of my Chats show up in the Gmail app (iOS), and there's a separate Chat app (which doesn't do the account switching I mentioned). If Chat is built in, I don't see it yet.

This has been much discussed the last bit of time, on what basis are you buying shares in a company..?

Switching channels/teams in Teams is far less efficient than moving through channels in Slack, which means I'm less likely to engage well in Teams.

The mobile Google Chat still doesn't let you switch accounts, like Hangouts supports. Perplexing, given how much people in the Google-sphere context switch.

A good friend of mine is a doctor who is angling hard against the prevailing narrative of COVID. He believes the risks are over represented and the collateral damage is under considered. We can’t talk about pandemic responses that target th

I end up ordering from Amazon the things that Whole Foods, OfficeMax and BestBuy won't keep in stock. I moved recently, so we've been ordering 2-4x /week while getting the new place in order. I buy locally what I can, but ret

During the outage today, my Alexa’s were streaming music. When I said, “Alexa”, they went right into reporting that there was an issue. I couldn’t even issue an “Alexa, stop”. Seemed.... dumb.

There are people who sit through credits. We're a minority ...even in theaters, I'd say 10% or less... but, since we're _paying_ subscribers to Netflix, why can't we turn on a feature that lets us watch credits?

I'll use this thread to share one of my oft-wished features: all mobile apps should come with an on/off toggle, too. Sure, I can delete the app, but if I think I want it in 2 weeks (say, while travelling), there are a lot of activ

You can be informed reading the right resources once a week. Being exposed to news content isn’t the same thing as being informed. And we don’t vote daily..

I've been rockng a Macbook Air since 2013. I love the thing and it works fine, but I can't do video editing, which I need to do. The new Macbooks were on the horizon, but I figured I'd wait for v2 of whatever came out. So I b

Reading HN though, every assertion from someone who knows something can become a thread of dispute, disagreements and "yeah, but" digressions. So, maybe, who knows anything..

I have an almost 17 year old who doesn't want a smartphone. He plays Minecraft/KSP about 90 minutes each night. But he'd always, always accept an offer to do something else with me or someone else in the family. So I make sur

I live in a world where those incentives have created a platform where I can buy decent hardware to run the kinds of applications that aren’t available on the preferred platforms. Want a laptop that can last all day, edit 4K, and be operate
