I have an Oasis 2 (2017 or so timeframe). What would be a good option that's similar to it? I love the screen size, the flush screen (I understand the Oasis is glass rather than plastic), and the page turn buttons are all pretty import

Sure. Like so many major (often crazy) milestones the human race has done. * Climbed Everest * Flew a plane * Make a trip to the Titanic * Freediving * Swam the English Channel * Floated across the Atlantic with no idea where we were headed

Really? This is the same guy that came back and rescued everyone from the Endurance. This stuff was dangerous, I think everyone going in knew it, as no one else had done this stuff before. From the Wikipedia entry: > Shackleton's co

I use a combination of YNAB and a spreadsheet. Generally YNAB is my day-to-day and tracks my actual savings, income and spending. The spreadsheet is more for historical purposes and creating graphs or tables for monitoring long term goals (

Tesla is an absolute no-fly zone for me, due to their stupid leader.

I mean, I get that. Part of it is irrational because my father worked for and retired from GM. So it's a bit of a family thing. But the loyalty has a limit and I believe Mary Barra has reached the limit for me.

GM is trying really hard to not get my business in the future. Between the no Car Play and Android Auto support in their new EVs. Now this. I'm just tired man...

That might be an option as we do use AWS. I'll have to investigate, thank you!

One of the reasons I am using it (I inherited it, looking to move) is due to being able to delegate some responsibilities to other staff without giving them the whole thing. What other services would you recommend that provide the same? I r

Today was the first day, in the ~4 months that we've been using Teams and MS365 for our company, that anyone noticed an actual outage. I got an email about it from a colleague and they weren't aware of the outage (I wouldn't

I think mentioning you are a founder in the original comment might have prevented that particular reply from happening. I think one of the things I, personally, am becoming less okay with as a reader here is seeing recommendations without p

I don't think I said we weren't making backups. We have two pieces in place: 1. We are a Microsoft 365 shop, so OneDrive stores versions of files and all that. Admittedly this is not a "backup" necessarily, but it does s

Generally speaking, a password manager is going to be one of the strongest most secure products a person uses. Most people's threat model doesn't really include having to worry about having both of them in the same tool. If your t

Small team, though, non-profit. There is wayyyy more work to do than any one individual has time to do, and while this is probably common even in non-startup-y type businesses, it means "work on what matters most" is really import

This book is one of my favorites ever. Both it and the sequel are amazing. My understanding is that Becky Chambers does not have any more books planned but hasn't ruled out writing more. But I really really hope we see more books. This

I don't think hype was ever _that_ high anyway, plus, this is how it is with every product more or less. You hear about it, there's a wave of interest, then generally speaking it tapers off until closer to launch. We now have a la

Readwise has a tool on the Mac that can pull highlights in. I believe it still works, but it's not an officially supported solution from Apple, if that's what you're looking for.

I worked in managing bug bounty programs at a previous job. If there is one thing I have learned it's that blog posts like this are heavily skewed towards making the problem seem much larger than it is. It's what gets the clicks,

I'd appreciate if you were less combative in your discussion. "Did you even read the post?" Give me a break, read the rules of this discussion forum, please. Beeper is only ONE of the concerns I mentioned. As I said, Beeper m

Not necessarily, and I see this from Apple's perspective though. When iMessage is under their control (it is their creation after all), they (Apple) can be sure that what is happening is exactly what users expect. We can know that the

To be fair, that was JUST added in the most recent change. It has _not_ been like that the whole time, and it's a bit disingenuous to imply that it has. I doubt it'll have an impact though, and this will likely get shut down just

A $100 notepad? Gimme a break. Given Baron Fig and Leuchtturm charge a premium (and are $20-30), I’d guess one of these would be under $30 if they had enough interest to produce large enough quantities. The price really depends on quantity.

Ah man, it was glorious. I was really just in awe at how I could talk to all my various friends in one app, regardless of which platform they were on. Such a great app. I recently went to the webpage for the app and see it's sort of a

Trillian used to be amazing. It is up there in my memory as about as life changing as Winamp was for me personally.

Personally, the approach I took to this was just to game on consoles. In my personal experience, the upgrade cycle is far far better for me. I don't feel like I've missed anything as a result either.

Circle of concern is an important concept that I don't see mentioned enough. It shows up everywhere though, from the AA serenity prayer to stoicism, to mental models, etc. Glad to see it being mentioned, it's a powerful tool. Tayl

Before Microsoft bought them they were basically at a standstill and no new features were being added to the product. At least, that's my recollection of it, perhaps someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

Wish that was easy for me. The people I work with seem to insist on having video on.
