Perhaps like how the Kakoune text editor[0] (discussed a few days ago on HN [1]) uses tmux to manage panes (although that's C++ and just uses the Tmux client[2]). [0]: http://kakoune.org/ [1]: https://news.y

Dropbox Paper was a flop for me - this is /several orders of magnitude/ more flexible. Note how many products I mentioned it replacing - I maintained a MediaWiki instance of my own for /years/ and dropped it alongside ha

I'm not sure whether you mean importing files from Dropbox/GDrive to Notion or vice versa! Neither is possible, as far as I'm aware. You /can/ have it grab a file from a link - if you can get the raw file link from

It's a web app - the Mac app is only an Electron wrapper. It works well on Windows/Mac/Linux/iOS/Android in the browser (I would know, I use it on all of those personally). Self hosted would certainly be nice - I us

Well at the top of the manual, the list of constraints[1] reads the same as the actor model[2] (it explicitly uses local state ('store') to model behaviour changes), with the word 'machine' substituted for 'actor&#x

It's been related to me in the past that the 3G/UMTS network stack is famously insanely complex and that the 4G/LTE stack is noticeably less so. So that might factor into your trouble with 3G and Bellard's success with L

If it's not already listed there, please do (and post the URL here!) I was thinking the same and will do so myself, if no-one else reports doing so.

I'm more unnerved by how few maintainers so many critical/core open source projects/libraries have, whether in web or otherwise. However high our project or company's bus factor gets, it's concerning to realise that

Haha quite. :) Was going to comment on that but left it out. Nonetheless the internet is still dramatically better at preserving originals [1] than exchanges between journalists and individuals. Aren't journalists notorious for misrepr

All valid points, although perhaps it's more in their interest to publish soon/rapidly/without dedicating much effort to every post that they put out? What you're describing may be in line with what we expect from conven

It /was/ an exchange, between the folks the article mentions it was between. Completely agree with the sibling commenter and you about 'told TechCrunch'. Yours and the sibling comments most-all refer to this point, so ju

I'd love to hear what exactly folks consider to be wrong with that. I've seen this sort of criticism in a few places before, but especially in cases such as this where someone from the company responded and talked of making change

(I originally included far more thoughts on the topic here, but this is getting dangerously far from my areas of deep knowledge and I shouldn't allow scope creep to have me argue on things beyond my original point). I'm only tryin

Yup, all fair enough and stuff I can agree with. I was trying to remind the parent poster that 'saving the planet' is a metaphor at best - ordinarily it should always involve saving humans. An accidental reversal of the situation
