   What is an IEM? Can you share URLs to some recommended vendors of the products you're talking about?

   Regarding performance, twin.macro seems like a fantastic approach for React users, inlining the styles where needed with Emotion/similar. It also answers the "where do custom styles go" question to some extent (answer: the cs

   We have over 15,000 on the way this month (some are spoken for). Yes, do reach out! Some folks actually did do this in April, just with 3D-printed adaptors: maskson.org and pneumask.org. They don't have built-in exhale filters, though,

   I know it can be hard to believe, but it's very real (just like COVID). Maybe this quote from a recent customer helps explain: > I'll look like a freak in the mask, but a LIVING freak. Thank you. We sold over 1000 of them in ou

   Thanks! Usually yes - sometimes the gate attendant doesn't understand that the exhale is filtered (I assume this was the problem with your respirator). We have guidance on that here: https://narwallmask.com/pages/u

    I created this product, but wouldn't say from scratch. It's based on a full face snorkel mask, with a few adaptors for filters (instead of water) that I designed with the help of an industrial engineer and the manufacturer of the

    Bit of an aside, but as a new entrepreneur selling physical products ( https://narwallmask.com ) I've been surprised by how much time I spend banking. Moving money around is way more of a headache than I would have anticipate

    Oh yeah sorry - didn't intend as a criticism! I think the hn headline should be concise, what you have was perfect. _Maybe_ adding the word "benchmarks" could have clarified but you cover more than that in the post.

    Huh? If I want to run someone else's software on my cloud, how I want to do that depends on my cloud. I want docs and binaries, not a full cloud configuration. Some people would want k8s, some docker swarm or whatever, some an aws conf

    Under what circumstances would TimescaleDB be a poor choice for a company already using postgres at this point?

    My takeaway from this is more to be wary of AWS than anything. I've also heard gcp can be a real mess. Is Azure any good yet?

    My apologies! I'm not sure why I misremembered that. Perhaps I was confusing it with Prisma... Which appears to be open-source as well now. Hmm, my mind must be playing tricks on me. Regardless, thank you for the correction!

    One thing is that it's open source, not proprietary. You can run it on your own servers, modify it, etc, for free. Another thing is it's Node, and can be used as a plug-in to your express app. This can make it easier to customize

    I think they did this originally but the performance implications were a deal breaker, and had to move to blocks. Iirc, which is questionable.

    Thanks! That's interesting. You can do that with Narwall too and I do see the advantage. I generally advise wiping the mask down with an alcohol wipe or equivalent prior to doffing (also servess as a reminder to sanitize one's han

    Has this ever been done successfully in this situation?

    This is definitely the one to wait for IMO. Not sure what the 2-port M1 MBP13 is really for, other than price descrimination.

    Summarizing what I think was the goal of posting this link: This benchmark ranking shows ASP.NET Core coming in 6th place, compared to Spring at 34th, Express at 76th, and Django/Rails near the bottom. I can't speak to the usefuln

    Fascinating that Bloomberg started adopting server-side JS in 2005 and client-side JS only in 2012. And that they use their own deno-like JS engine.

    Self-answering to some degree, it looks like WKWebView on macos is similar to safari but may be behind on version number (presumably updated only when the OS is updated) and thus slower. You can also embed an actual safari view, but it does

    That's interesting! Anything special about the computer you're on? Would the apps be just as fast if they used a cocoa web view, or is Safari faster?
