It's a great tool. All the information is stored inside a web page, which in turn means I can view it on any device that has a browser.

But what makes it more powerful is scripting support. One can not only customize its look and feel using CSS but also modify its behavior with scripts. Its scripting system is very powerful, for example, one user has a build a version control system for the TW notes using the TW scripting language.
I would love to use notion more, I like the way it works, it's flexibility, and would happily pay, unfortunately your offline capabilities arnt as good as I'd like it to be, and importantly your app startup time is very slow (which you already called out)

Will keep checking in in the future. Keep going though!
30's typically are settling down years and might have a young kid or crying newborn keeping them steadily sleep deprived and agitated if I had to guess what was behind you observation for that age group.

I would go with a VPS. It's cheap and by definition the most flexible solution, only limited by your capabilities of configuring e.g. a Linux machine.
Sorry to bother you, but in Indonesia, "X" is spelled "ks"
Please stop repeating that propaganda. The point of standards is to facilitate interoperability. DRM does the opposite so it can never be standardized, no matter what capitalist-run "standards" organizations say
> If you reach a point where one organism developed enough mechanisms to resist simple predators and that their advanced predators die out, I think it would be impossible for evolution to get out of that dead end.

If all the predators died out, then those defense mechanisms would become wasteful, and organisms that didn't have those defense mechanisms would be more efficient. That would open the door to the development of new predators. The situation you're describing is not a true equilibrium, in other words.
If you take a group that's 4:1 on average, and then apply a subgroup filter which is also typically 4:1, that doesn't imply it comes out at 4:1 on the whole. Correct me if I'm wrong. It seems very likely that their ratio is far worse than that.
Personal organization:

(1) Use the Windows file system to create a directory ("folder") tree that is often a taxonomic hierarchy. Have some good little command line tree walking commands.

(2) Do a lot with just text in simple text files. Generally prefer just simple text. Manage these files with a really good text editor. Have a lot of macros for the editor. E.g., start each entry in a file with a time, date, day of week stamp from a macro -- good to have to document the entry even if don't have much more.

(3) In each directory, have a text file that describes the other files or directories in that directory.

(4) Have a file, I call FACTS, just a text file, that has little facts: Each entry starts with a delimiter line, then a time-date line, then a line of keywords, and then the entry. The entries have user IDs, passwords, credit card info, e-mail addresses, USPS addresses, phone numbers, URLs of interesting Web locations, names of people and/or notes on them, etc. really just lots of short facts. Write a little editor macro to do search keywords.

E.g., since this thread likely has better ideas than I have, I put the URL of this thread in FACTS!

Big point: A single file of a few million characters searches essentially instantly and can hold lots of facts per day for years!

(5) For more, that is, for more serious information, knowledge, etc., write notes, even nice papers in D. Knuth's TeX and index them in FACTS, describe them in the documentation file of directory of the paper, etc.

For what to share with others, I'd suggest relatively well written notes or papers. For more, have a directory, make a ZIP file of the whole directory, and share that. For more, maybe use GITHUB or some such.
There's too much information available to read everything carefully.
IMO you should disclose (and it is a disclosure, not a disclaimer) your employer at the top, because it makes the rest of your comment something nearer to marketing copy than user review.

But you can have a "real career" without ending in management. In the Bay Area you can make absurd amounts of money as individual contributor. Not C-level of absurd, but high enough to be fine with earning less but enjoying your work more—money is only a means to an end, after all.

Also, the only way I'd be interested in going into upper management would be as technical co-founder, which requires neither grinding levels nor job-hopping.

Overall I think you're being a bit too reductive about what a "real career" means.
Can you expand on this a little?
The jokes and memes make most reddit subs almost completely useless for real discussion. Even on tragic news events and serious topics jokes tend to float to the top.
Exactly. It's just that in the internet era you can have a restaurant with a queue of everyone who's ever gotten food poisoned, or served late, or served the wrong food, standing outside forever. The thousands of satisfied customers aren't visible.

And TP's business model is to build that queue of dissatisfied people so that you have to pay to compensate for it.
The article links to another article which discusses this. In order to do stack sampling, the CPU doing the work must be periodically interrupted for the sampler to run and collect a stack. Modern CPUs are deeply speculative and often issue instructions out of strict program order. When you interrupt such a CPU it has to walk some of that back and decide where to leave off on all of the speculative execution; what the CPU was doing at the time is thus not completely captured by the stack trace alone.
All tools suck in a way that actual reality of doing work is complicated and tools are obviously way simpler so you end up trying to reduce the reality to fit the model of a particular tool.

That explains why email is still the most used tool. It also sucks but you can do any type of project with email and everyone knows how to use it.
Interesting, I never heard of practical advantages of IPv6 for the end user, such as dramatically better ping times. Given the simplified routing, I can imagine this to be true. Are there applications where this pays off, such as reduced delays in cross-atlantic video chats?
I am not sure why it happens, but since about a year google became extremely aggressive with search ads. It was infuriating because they were reliably scammy ads for three-random-trending-words domains.

Really surprised by MS. One of the bigger benefits of chosing the MS ecosystem was their sensibility when it comes to decisions like this (and long term support - in one way or another). I can understand the decision to scrap a lot of the pieces here, but especially scrapping NodeServices is a huge surprise - it's so useful (e.g. best PDF-rendering way in AspNetCore AFAIK) and facilitates all the other use cases. Perhaps the strangest decisions of them all is to continue supporting the React CLI and Angular CLI ways (without SSR). Drop that and spend that effort on maintaining NodeServices so that the foundation has good/trusted (previusly trusted) MS support - and then the community can create the different pieces on top of it (which will also make it clear which pieces are the valuable ones). In particular, I believe a generic webpack-plugin and a generic SSR (prerender) + some online tutorials/guides for how to do it with the most popular frameworks (React, Angular, Vue) would solve something like 98% of all scenarios.

I also have to say I'm surprised by their comments. Basically they're just saying: It's open source, the community should take over. To ask the community to take on a project as significant and important as this is a huge ask. To even have to consider the likelihood of it not turning up/being managed with continuous high quality (thus continuously updated and actively steered) doesn't feel good at all.

It feels like the big selling point of web devs moving to AspNetCore - a MS that really supports modern web development - is now lost (at least the trust part of it). Is it to push people towards their Blazor future? If so, that's ignorant of the status of things and how client side Blazor fundamentally has some issues (passing along a significant runtime to get started). Was it just a trick to get people to move to AspNetCore along the lines of the famous Extend-Embrace-Extinguish strategy? I thought MS got rid of that.

I used to be a big proponent of the new MS and MS as a stable ecosystem partner. Now, I lost a lot of faith in them over there.

nobody would have problems with this kind of ads if they ware not made to look like normal results.
yeah i would like to stay away from doing it myself for a while, as i dont want to SSLs to lapse. And i dont want to build it up. Would prefer a service provider at first.

But if i did build it myself. Can you recommend a built for the reverse proxy? with an API, config in database maybe?
I love the product but I've not been able to switch all my note taking to Notion due to the lack-luster performance of the mobile (Android) client. It'd be fantastic if the app could cache data more aggressively enabling more fluid interactions.

Ballsy. I wonder what services they will kick off with. I especially wonder what their Lambda service will be like.

But _why_? Is there something Disney has that everyone _needs_ to have?

My first reaction to stuff like this is simply that I can't be bothered -- if Disney don't want me as a customer then I'll simply ignore their service.

This is a serious question; I'm quite ignorant when it comes to the content of the current Disney IP portfolio and I'm not really a consumer of mainstream media.
As per the article: "It is unclear why this code misbehaved so badly on this particular machine. I assume that it is something to do with the layout of the almost-empty 2 TB disk."
Ask HN: Is there any communities around product management you can recommend?
I'd love to find a community like HN (news, discussion) but with a greater focus on product management. Does something like this exist?

So far I'm aware of /r/ProductManagement and a couple of Slack groups (ProductHQ, MindTheProduct).
They were not forced.
And they wonder why we block ads.

If I search for medicine, maybe they'll show me an ad for homeopathy. Maybe I'm gullible.

If I search Reliable Product X and I get an ad for Garbage Product Y...

Eventually, doesn't this de-value Google's own brand as being the place where you go to find... what you typed into the search bar?
Nice, too bad the organization part is card-based, would have loved a drag/drop interface like with Bookmarkninja [1]

1. You can always walk away from an offer.

2. Nobody wants to hire a loser, especially as a consultant.
Don't know about upper management, that's a whole different game at these giant companies. But low and middle managers get hired all the time without a personal connection, especially if coming from a different FAANG. Industry experience in a similar role is still a prerequisite of course, i.e you're unlikely to get hired as a manager if you weren't managing or a team lead before.
Or break it, depending on how old it is:

From the docs .. AWS Nitro is 1] a family of cards that offloads and accelerates IO for functions (for VPC, EBS, Instance Storage, Security) 2] a lightweight hypervisor that presumably works well with these cards, and 3] the nitro "security chip" specifics of which are sparse.
This is pretty much exactly what I do, too. The only difference is that my use of Apple Notes is mostly for quick, personal things ... I move material into Markdown documents within git repositories as soon as I can, because then it's easy to share it, trace changes, and organize contributions.

Oh, and one more thing: my Markdown documents are normally R-Markdown documents, so I can incorporate calculations and graphs as needed. (Also, R-Markdown has a nice metadata section for document title, author, date, etc.)
So is "frat house full of brogrammers" just a meme then? I have always wondered since I first heard the term, as it seems so remote from the reality I experience.

And yet, it gets punted around so much you wouldn't think that it would be hard to find a brogrammer shop. On the contrary, going by the 'reputation' you'd think they would be so numerous as to almost be hard to avoid.
As much as I love Notion, things that you've mention really holding from moving sensitive data into Notion. Wish they had more solid approach to security.

Not sure if this is still relevant, but at some moment they acknowledged their stuff access to client's data. This is huge no-no for any privacy conscious person.

Other that that it's a great tool for organising personal information for me.
Neurons hide their memories in their imaginary fluctuations
I agree: this trick of saying that you are using Notion as a source of truth when you work at Notion had left a bitter aftertaste, on a product I should love overwise.
That's a good point, perhaps ratings need a way to indicate the the number of satisfied customers instead of keeping them invisible.

We are already used to seeing the number of reviews next to a rating score, but maybe we can add an additional "total number of customers" or a percentage of reviews-to-customers.

2. "Feed" style of notes allows me to go search more notes.

Of course they were forced, if being forced means "having force applied to". Did they HAVE to do it? No. Were they forced to? Yes, of course.

Much in the same way that you don't have to work but are very much forced to.
FWIW: I got pissed some time ago about Booking.com and Easyjet doing this, so I created an adblocker filter list to filter out those messages.

All you need to know to contribute is basic CSS.
Having very fast LTE everywhere also likely adds to the issue. Even in other rich countries, that is not the case (e.g. in rural areas or on underground trains) so you cannot spend all your time consuming bandwidth heavy applications like video.

For any system you build, keep in mind a few general truths:

1) The system isn’t just “the wiki” or “Notion”. The system is composed of both the tools you’re using AND the habits/expectations of the humans who use them. So, this is not just a matter of buying a tool. Its a matter of choosing tools AND designing a process made of humans habits.

2) The system will get messy and unused unless there is regular attention & time allocated to tidying it.

3) If you want people to do something, recognise and incentivize it. If there is a person who habitually sends out concise notes after meetings, make sure that their performance review recognizes that contribution.

4) A habit has three parts: {:situation, :action, :reward}

Example:

Situation: At the end of a retrospective meeting, we have learned of a need for a runbook on how to handle a type of automated alert.

Action: The team lead updates a runbook and tags a junior engineer to review it for missing context.

Reward: The team lead feels satisfaction that they’ve set their team up for future success. They add a bullet point to the notes to use during their next annual review.
This article motivated me to figure out why I see those ads in the first place. If you're on uBlock Origin, go to the dashboard and look for a filter list under "annoyances". Mine was switched off.
I don't think you can compare a vaccine with, say, cars. A vaccine works or it doesn't, there isn't much to be improved on from a usability point of view. Whereas the very first car compared to models, say, 20 years later - that's quite a difference. I wouldn't want a car for which I needed to study 6 months to learn how it works, so that I could fix it on the road every time it breaks down. Not to mention costs going down over time.
I literally used the phrase "serious issue" in the proceeding sentence to describe the situation.

That is because in a large company you are hired to support the fiefdom of a manager that wants to claw to the top in the existing structure, not 'transform it for the better'.

We used to use Confluence but it always felt too bloated and cluttered. It was a pain to get people to contribute and even harder to find stuff because of how slow and broken the search was.

We have since switched to Nuclino (https://www.nuclino.com/) and are pretty happy so far. Refreshingly simple, lightweight, and focused on getting the essential features right. We are now moving away from Google Docs as well and trying to consolidate all knowledge in Nuclino. It's almost perfect for our needs, only a few nice-to-have integrations are missing (and will hopefully be added soon).

Finding the right tool is only half the battle though, getting people to actually use it and keep the content up-to-date is usually the real challenge. Switching to a more user-friendly tool certainly helps, but it isn't enough to create a culture of documentation.

> undercurrent of your post is that depressed people need to snap out of it,

Please point to where I say that. I explicitly do not say that. That's not an undercurrent because I don't believe it.

I do also believe that people don't have zero agency in this problem. There is SOME ability and necessity for people to work on these types of problems. That's what therapy with a therapist is right?

And that does differentiate depression from tuberculosis which cannot ever be improved by sitting down and talking about it.
"Planning to hook up 1gbps"?

A lot of people can get a gigabit (or sometimes, half a gigabit (I live in a tiny village)) for years now. In 2016, Tweak already offered 10gbps for 95 euros per month to a small region[1], and recently announced they'll expand that for 89€/month to anyone who currently has access to 1gbps[2]. Their gigabit offering currently costs 39 euros a month.

When I search in the Dutch App Store for 'Coolblue', a big online retailer here, the first thing I see is an ad for the 'Bol.com' app, the biggest online retailer here (our Amazon-like website, with the same shady partner practices).
Below that is the actual Coolblue app.

So this is what happens when the competitor pays more for ads on your own name than you do.
How to Choose a Font for a Project
I write into bunch of markdown files and push to GitHub:

Hi,

To organize and share our knowledge at work, we use the project management tool we developed: https://en.beesbusy.com

We create projects and tasks for specific topics and use comments for updates. And for more complete information, we can add a link to shared documents or an attachment. For instance, we created processes templates that can be updated and duplicated.

I find it very useful because knowledge is then organized in a workflow perspective: for instance, our product roadmap information is updated by everyone on a daily basis.

Since Beesbusy can be used for any type of project and has a mobile app, I also use it to organize my personal life. I share projects with my wife (shopping list, travel plans and so on) and I have everything in one place.

I would also recommend using a wiki for in-depth information. We use the Gitlab wiki for its simplicity, and we add links to its pages from our Beesbusy tasks.
Notion is great - the most important thing to my mind is that it's easy to find information later (by navigation, rather than search. The search UX is... not great). I use Notion to record everything that doesn't belong in git, but still needs a canonical place to live.

>- Mobile performance could be better.

This is the reason I still use Evernote on mobile, even though I pay for Notion. Sometimes I'll even bend Trello into a note-taking shape. eugh. The startup time is far too long for the short interactions that you have on mobile.

There's one other shortcoming that drives me back to text files on a regular basis: often after highlighting some text in the desktop app, Ctrl-C doesn't copy. This is absolutely infuriating when using notion's code boxes to write down sequences of terminal commands. There's no way of knowing whether a Ctrl-C succeeded or not until I'm pasting the wrong command in a terminal. Text files, with any editor is a much more pleasant experience.

Even though this sounds like a list of gripes, I've found Notion invaluable as a knowledge base.
Very cool! It would feel more fair if my health reset with each wave so that I'm on an equal footing with the new agents.
