I keep it on for my web chats, but I think I dislike it more than it helps. I'll ask a question about something and it'll find a way to tie it back to something from three months ago thinking it was a deep project I was working on

When evaluating a third-party service like Cognito in this case or a mail provider, I either require that it uses an open standard for access like SMTP or the interface that I need to use is small enough that I can wrap it in my own layer o

Suica was excellent when I had the chance to use it. I used the Apple Pay version and it worked flawlessly. I think I do prefer what I'm seeing more and more in the US with a tap-to-pay so I don't have to learn a new system, but S

It's a shame that the GitHub org that we use at my job that we pay a lot of money for gets affected the same way my personal nonsense does. I don't know the architecture or any of that, but I feel like there could be (and it'

> Unimportantly, it's named after Larry Page, not after the fact that it ranks pages. I've always taken it as a happy double play since it is named after Page, but also ranks pages.

I think that each of the products you name is the top or near the top of their category, but these weren't creating a category. I don't think my original comment says anything about "changing that industry", so that&#x27

Skipping parts in books was a big mental shift for me that has made me a much happier reader. I used to force myself to read through parts of books I already knew. If you read technical books, the overlap between them continues to grow and

Agreed. Apple doesn't innovate anymore, but they're generally pretty good at adapting once other people have.

I was so blown away at all the discourse surrounding "Apple fumbling on models". They should never have been in the model game to begin with. Apple crushes hardware over the last decade and that's a huge advantage today. In t

I work for a company building real estate adjacent software and have worked on connections to all the major property management systems and large (and small) proptech companies. I can tell you that at least 90% of them have some of the wors

The web is excellent! It loses lots of native abilities though, even as we move forward with file system and USB web APIs. It's also generally resource intensive, compared to a solid native UI. I would say that, if you don't need

The day we get a truly good, native binding, resource efficient, cross platform UI framework, then I will agree wholeheartedly. I love a GUI in many cases! But if I'm building something, I personally want it across Linux and MacOS at l

What's trash about it? Giving no explanation does not contribute to a conversation. I also don't care if people have original ideas if they take an existing idea and do it better, which is what I appreciate about Kagi at the momen

This is my suspicion, all though I have no evidence, just anecdotes. I make a handful of commits a day. I write code, review it, test it, commit, and then push. We have some marketing folks that have gotten into vibe coding stuff for their

Not sure, but they could use the self-hosted enterprise version of GitHub for their use case.

The most appealing thing of Go to me is the good batteries including tooling. I don't use it much outside of little personal projects where I really don't want to deal with dependencies and want a small binary.

I never used Evernote (thankfully), but since their Bending Spoons acquisition, they seem to have between 50% to 150% increases to their various plans in three years. Doubling the price of your product in such a short time is one thing, but

I'm also curious. I work remote about 95% of the time and my time spent in the office is by far my least productive. Way more ad hoc chats and longer lunches (both work related and not). I do enjoy the social aspect a lot, but man I ge

I go into my company's Boston office with an hour and a half commute each way by train about once a month. Even doing that once a month sucks. I couldn't imagine doing that even three times a week. I regularly get LinkedIn message

I didn't know about the UV index or what it meant until like three years ago. It blows my mind I went that long without understanding. It was actually wonderful to learn that I could just see if I needed sunblock based on a 0-10 scale.

I like to consider Postgres the starting point for all of these things, that can be outgrown and replaced when appropriate. I do love just shoving everything in Postgres and seeing that I only end up needing a few additional dedicated servi

I do think the quality has gone down over my seven-ish years on HN, but that could be me just remembering "the good ol' days". Still so much better than Reddit though. It's not close. Reddit has a much lower quality set

I can't imagine reaching for this instead of GitLab, GitTea, or one of the many other more mature and open source alternatives. Going for the managers, directors, and CTOs that make decisions and face no consequences if they negatively

That's an opinion. One you're very welcome to hold, but it's not universal by any means. Lots of people enjoy rust.

I'm seeing "Merge status cannot be loaded" when attempting to merge a PR. It's a shame I had to go to HN to check if I was the only one instead of relying on their status page that they link.
