Electron could probably be described as "a big chunk" of Atom's codebase. The rest of VS Code has a lot of similar functionality to Atom, so calling it "a rewrite" doesn't feel that far off (except insofar as i

I'm not sure if this feedback is useful, but I have to say that a collaborative text editor doesn't feel like that big of a sell. Pairing in VS Code over Zoom has gotten a lot better over the last year or two, to the point that I

Funny, this doesn't sound like a spiritual successor to Atom at all. What made people excited about Atom (compared to Sublime Text, which people switched from and was ~always faster) was the extensibility. Sounds like this won't h

Sorry, I meant less "how long until they catch up to trunk" and more "what is the downtime / operational burden of performing major upgrades like". With separate storage and compute it seems tantalizingly possible t

I know the pain :) Good luck, this is a very exciting project. I'm extremely curious to see how it unfolds…

This sounds awesome, but one of my first reactions to the notion of separated compute/storage Postgres with copy-on-write is "okay, so… slow Postgres?" Is there anything the dev team can share on read/write performance c

Did you look at Crunchy Bridge? Not sure if they support that use case.

According to the article, Manhattan lost 6.6% (that is, even more) in the same timeframe. Manhattan is a much closer comparable to SF than all of NYC, the lines just happen to be drawn differently.

I'm disappointed the article didn't advise PWUD where to find them today. Where can one?

Nice, that does fit the bill! Note that it does not include custom domains or image uploading on the free plan, but you can upgrade for $29 (lifetime), which gets you: Custom domains (this is time-consuming) Image uploading (due t

For this particular person, who wants to feel non-lonely and combat hubris while continuing to primarily do what they love (coding), I would say a heuristic I might use would be "developers who humble you with their abilities, and have

Work somewhere with really, really smart people. When I joined Stripe in 2017, I couldn't get over the number of people I worked with who were smarter, better engineers than myself. It was new to me. It was hard at times (impostor synd

Many people read the headline, maybe subheader and intro paragraph, and then just skip to HN comments – or skip the article entirely and assume the submission title says it all. So IMO, both of you are contributing constructively here.

Is there a full-featured, usable, free, no-code, no-sysadmin blog platform with performance akin to motherfuckingwebsite.com ?

Just to add to that, "normal" markdown (I forget which flavor exactly) is currently used for the text blocks within the Stripe API reference documentation.

tl;dr, working reasonable hours that are no fun is worse than working more hours that are fun/rewarding/meaningful. I very much agree.

Very much agree, especially now that Google Maps seems to be monetizing their location listings more (showing sponsored results instead of relevant results in map views, etc).
