Thanks for the recommendation, it was a harrowing read. I'll have to re-visit this in 10-15 years when I'm no longer a young bachelor. Here's a link for anyone else who wants to read it: https://www.newyorker.com&#

It's not the hating cars part that makes this article unsuitable to this commenter. It's the way they responded.

I find the Everdeck[0] to the the most elegant and interesting implementation of the super-deck concept. The sreator has explored and taken ideas from many other deck systems[1]. [0] https://thewrongtools.wordpress.com/2019&

Ergonomic keyboards on software like ZMK or QMK actually change both iirc, so that's a no go for external keyboard users.

> I don't think I would want to go back to non-split, non-ortholinear keyboards nowadays. Same for me but even further, after using the Glove80[0] I don't want to go back to non-colstag, non-keywell keyboards. [0] https:/

I think if you are switching over for speed gains or just for fun, sure it may be inconvenient and not worth the effort. However, many people switch to ergonomic split keyboards because they have to due to RSI or tenosynovitis (as was my ca

Once you have a corpus of your own personal text, I'd recommend to use the current best analyzer, oxeylyzer[0]. You can find more details on the Alternate Keyboard Layout discord. [0] https://github.com/O-X-E-Y/oxe

Great write-up. Any one who wants to dive way way deeper into keyboard layout optimization should look into the subreddit[0] as well as the Alternate Keyboard Layout Discord. It is a shame that most of the collective knowledge is stuck on a

For a full size keyboard, I'd highly recommend the Glove80 [0] instead. For something more compact and portable, look at ZSA's own Voyager [1]. The reason I'd recommend the Glove80 is because a keywell is just so much nicer t

I may be misunderstanding, but doesn't Amazon have it's own models in the form of Amazon Titan[0]? I know they aren't competitive in terms of output quality but surely in terms of cost there can be some use cases for them. [0

It's not as alarming if we just reframe it. Apple's software is written by developers, like many HN readers, and they follow similar interal processes. There is nothing inherent about having a large market cap that makes everyone

Absolutely true. I just intended to push back against the notion that frameworks should not be considered.

by zubairshaik 3y ago
Absolutely; most frameworks will not fulfill their design goal. Most ambitious open source programming efforts tend to wither away due to loss of interest, a failure to gain contributors, lack of experience, lack of time or energy and many

Could you elaborate? I've used Zelle in the exact way you've mentioned previously (entered a phone number and an amount to send straight from my bank app) with no issues.
