This product announcement taught me that airtable exists and got me interested in it. I don't know why all the comments here are so snide. I wish my company's product was validated by having TC announce the largest player in our d

For me, it's the language that it's advocates use to describe it, I have yet to see an explanation of what it does , let alone what it is or how it works or what problems it's supposed to solve. Every discussion of Urbit cli

I have never once called an Uber because it was cheaper than alternatives. It's more convenient, reliable, and except for certain times transparent about pricing. They can increase the prices significantly and I will continue to use th

I agree with most of what you're saying here except for the point on generics versus templates. I wouldn't say generics are an approximation of templates at all, templates are something in between generic programming and macros an

There are processes to follow. If Alameda County is at fault then the courts can decide. They can issue restraining orders to suspend the quarantine if they felt the county overstepped its bounds too. What can't happen is letting a com

Have you ever worked with sequences/iterators/generators or their abstractions? They make incredibly composable, portable, sound, and readable code. And most useful programs are built on patterns that can be optimally represented

This happens to me a lot, but it's basically a kind of technical debt. Most of the time the upfront time investment to automate something properly versus doing it manually is hard to justify. Especially if it's a task that only I

Kind of a chicken and egg situation, I looked at sciter for a project about a year ago and estimated that it would cost more time/money to get things off the ground in your framework than using my existing codebase and frameworks with

Yea sorry for being unclear, I meant I need to do all those things. I have evaluated electron in the past and tried to hack the things I need unsuccessfully, but I don't keep up with it so I've edited my comment.

They're different product categories entirely these days. The other DAWs aren't "toys" and in fact do a lot of things significantly better than Pro Tools. Pro Tools as a product only makes sense at scale, with multiple p

I think they're replying that way because you seem to miss my point, I didn't think I needed to say that "the operations are the data" explicitly. My confusion was not on what they were doing or why they chose to use a D

I'm confused, a DAG is a model for the relationships between data. What makes this a separate feature for the product? And it's pretty fundamental to the problem you try to solve, usually, so what were they using before, a list? T
