Does your app really only have one kind of user (maybe it does, I'm just asking)? My company doesn't get too deep into formal user personas stuff, but we understand that different people use our software to accomplish different goals. For example business owners, corporate accountants, facility managers, and operators all perform different tasks and focus on different information. The purpose of the story jargon is to summarize who needs it, what they need, and why. As SWE's we often don't need to care very much about who or why, but it's important to the product team when they're deciding what to prioritize and explaining to the rest of the business why we're spending time doing this work.

Thank you! I had "dependencies between notebooks" and "collaborative mode"... the first one's covered here but I still don't know how to handle some Google Docs-style flow on these.

I would really like to publish essays like this in an environment like Maria: https://2.maria.cloud/curriculum/clojure-with-shapes , with the ability to duck out to my own editor when I'm ready to graduate.

I'm happy to talk more about this if you like!
Wonder if this is just the Hawthorne effect?

Hmm, not sure it's for me (a bit too much hacker) but I'd definitely like a highly customizable, module based browser with a pure shell by default. Something like Visual Studio Code but with less cruft from the get go.

I've never thought about it until I saw this! Now I'm really irked about there not being a solid, mature browser based on extensibility. Where the base is basically an address bar and history awareness (i.e. back/forward) and even bookmarks is a module, so that you don't even need an integrated solution but can instead rely on e.g. Raindrop.io as your bookmarks manager. Tab management another one, so for example you could have _only_ a powerful vertical tabs mode if that's all you need.

You know what, it feels like this should have happened 20 years ago and it would be as popular as Vim or Emacs now, but somehow never actually did. It would be the ultimate response to Chrome, Edge, even Firefox feature creep, forcing its developer to commit fully to web renderer excellence (speed, RAM, web standards) and maybe some optional official modules if you want them.

My favorite fat loss drug along these lines is dinitrophenol. It is the true miracle fat burning drug. It interferes with cellular metabolism in such a way that the body just nonstop oxidizes fat. Fat mass loss in the order of a pound a day or more is entirely possible and some bodybuilders use it to get to a ludicrously low bodyfat percentage. Unfortunately oxidizing that much fat generates a lot of heat, so much that an overdose can be lethal because your body literally roasts itself to death and titration is extremely difficult. Oh and blindness is a common side effect. And for added fun it’s an high explosive. Needless to say it’s not FDA approved.
Because poor sanitation is a disease vector that can kill people and ruin communities. A working toilet is an unmitigated good. Cars on the other hand have a much more questionable value proposition. They turn cities into parking lots shrouded in smog and significantly contribute to climate change. Even if cars only contributed in positive ways, they're still not necessary to a functioning society the way that sanitation is.
I covered this in a few of the comments above... the project was initially completely aimed at the R2R book, and I expect to get back to it. I'll add more background to the project page soon!
A lot of people in the Go community consider web frameworks to be an anti-pattern.

I haven't done any web stuff in Go, but it definitely looks like the standard library is much better suited than any other language.
Yes, there is an API for this in macOS, and I use it in two of my apps (multitouch.app and charmstone.app). The haptic feedback is really subtle though and it doesn't give the full power of the feedback that is in the trackpad, which limits the usefulness of it. You can make it buzz for longer durations to make it more apparent, but then it starts to get annoying. I think there is a private framework that can give you stronger haptic feedback, if I remember right (I avoid private frameworks).
Also, for OLAP workloads there's Workers Analytics Engine. Analytics Engine is arbitrarily scalable as opposed to a D1-like solution - I can almost guarantee I've inserted more data into its internal variant (which is built on extremely similar underlying infrastructure) than just about any customer would think of doing, and it handles it like a champ.

Basically, we already have a product for doing DuckDB-like things, and the D1 architecture isn't great for high volume OLAP workloads.

To the best of my knowledge, no one has treated “rhythm” in any way rigorously, and it’s mostly just a crock, something that sounds good on paper

Ironically it does sometimes look better on paper - specifically on cheap, thin paper with double-sided printing where ink showing through from the reverse side in the inter-line gaps can be distracting and unattractive.

So perhaps you're wrong about it being utterly without reason? It makes sense to maintain an exact vertical rhythm in digital typography any time you're displaying your content on a thin, double-sided monitor where the image from the reverse side bleeds through. Not sure how much use it is apart from that though.
You would think that on a planetary scale, climate change result in more water, not less. Increased oceanic surface temperatures would cause more storms and thus more rain.
Yes. That's also irrelevant to the cause of the performance issues, which all happen before the ORDER BY and LIMIT even come into the picture in Postgres' query optimization.

Edit: To give a better idea of the impact of RLS here, writing up an equivalent query outside of the RLS context [1] has an under-1-second response time, where RLS turns that into 10x the time even in the most optimized case.

[1]: This kind of thing, roughly:

SELECT *
FROM products
JOIN tenants ON products.tenant_id = tenants.id
JOIN tenants_users ON tenants.id = tenants_users.tenant_id
WHERE tenant_users.user_id = auth.uid()
ORDER BY updated_at
LIMIT 100
Just doing the Damm job led to massive mess, unability to even know what system does literally every single time I have seen it.

Yeah, I think this can only be a criticism of "democracy" in an extremely narrow sense. Much of the situation is still determined through litigation, not legislation, whether in court or in front of the state water resources board. My mom worked for a water attorney, and I lived and worked in ag in an irrigation district that had an active case in front of the water board. In both cases, the billable hours were endless, and in the latter case, winning a defense in front of the water board was enough to get the lead attorney a promotion to senior staff lawyer at another irrigation district.

Plus sheer cashflow, not votes, is what's driving a lot of the more water-intensive ag in the dry southern end of the San Joaquin Valley. The Resnicks (Wonderful pomegranate juice/almonds/pistachios, Cutie citrus, billionaire LA residents) are essentially agribusiness investors rather than hands-on farmers, and most emphatically DO NOT have senior water rights for most of their operations, but they DO have the cashflow to buy water off of more senior rights holders, and they have the nationwide distribution on the other end to keep that cashflow going. Whether that continues to be sustainable, or their heirs want to keep it up... we shall see. In the meantime, it is a perfectly reasonable business decision as a senior rights holder to fallow your land or otherwise curtail your use, and sell your allotment down the aqueduct. Fresno State has the California Water Institute which publishes a great deal of informative studies and policy papers: http://www.californiawater.org/publications/ They've noted in the past that transactions like this essentially carry no tax or infrastructure maintenance fees. That's one policy change that could easily be voted into place.

Even setting aside the financial cost considerations other commenters have expressed, getting voters behind a wholesale change is a big project. The water situation simply hasn't started to bite hard enough for the bulk of the state's urban population. I'm often skeptical of ballot initiatives and the necessarily shallow marketing campaigns that accompany them, and a ballot initiative to reform the pre-/post-1914 water rights system would need an absolutely huge, multi-year educational push and likely multiple failures and retries at the ballot box. That's not to say it's impossible, as things are noticeably changing. These days, I live over the hill from Coalinga, which almost ran the hell out of water last year: https://www.cnbc.com/2022/10/24/coalinga-california-faces-th...

quantum gravity may introduce new phenomena related to the behavior of matter and energy. For example, it is hypothesized that quantum gravity effects could lead to violations of certain symmetries or the emergence of new particles or forces, or a method of propulsion.
Can you clarify what you mean? It can certainly be run on hardware that you call a server, just would depend on if you're running a graphical environment, it's not able to run in a terminal emulator afaik.
Its easier to manage one server then its to manage 10k servers. The internet works best if its distributed and with redundancy.

I don't think this is going to happen. Increases in productivity eventually lead to race to the bottom in terms of prices. Which means whoever owns the means of production are not incentivized at all to just let their workers work less. The demands of workers will stay the same, if not increase because of lowering barriers to entry on the supply side of job seekers.

I wish we as a society would just accept less work as productivity increases, but that is not the way the system is setup to work. One positive thing is that we do end up with more things as it becomes cheaper to produce them.

With C, I don't know.
The alternative, as I mentioned in my earlier post, is to demolish the building and start over. That was the cheaper route, according to the contractor who had gotten a job to retrofit an existing office space.

To run new 240v to each apartment, plus water, plus septic, plus whatever additional load bearing requirements there are means you're effectively gutting the building anyway. Then, on top of that, you have to deal with light, fire escapes, etc. which may not be easy to do with the existing building's footprint.
It’s better to not know.
Or to put it simply: allow the people who can actually create the value, to produce the value.

When Steve Jobs introduced the iPhone, he said there was a need for a new UI. The issue, as he said [1], was that the hardware of then-current smartphones was present and unchangeable whether or not that’s what the software in use called for. In the context of phones and the assorted software used on them, there’s a worthwhile logic to his point.

Car manufacturers (among others), didn’t seem to understand this logic. When it comes to in-car adjustments of vehicle capabilities—heating/cooling, music, etc.—touchscreens offer no benefits to users that exceed the simplicity of usability and the safety of dedicated hardware controls.

The irony, of course, is that Apple played a large role in popularizing touchscreens even if the logic the company used for choosing it was lost on so many, even though Jobs made clear the explicit value for smartphones.

> Figuring out what the right problems and solutions are and making sure everyone on the team understands them is why you’re in meetings.

That's the idea, but does it work in practice? From what I can see, very little of that takes place in actual meetings. It takes place in emails and chats, because meetings don't allow you the time or space to really think about the issues.
None of Salvatore Pais' claims or patents have ever been replicated or passed any kind of peer review, and scientists read him as a crackpot[0].

Not helpful. Drugs are drugs. Side effect happens. Sometimes not even related to the drug.

I don't know how you folks do it in the US, but I imagine there is a leaflet attached to the medication, and somewhere in it should be a phone number, physical address and/or an e-mail address of an institution that tracks drug side effects. If you're unlucky enough to have some weird reaction to a drug, it's good to let them know.

There must be an API because I've seen (felt?) it used recently. I can't remember what app it was, one I just have tried one time.

You thought you were joking, but yes, kind of like that, but then actually, given that C++ was a direct result of C.

Because JS only has the word "java" in the name because that's the name people were going to get tricked into thinking it was a serious thing over. Which is why the "real" language hassn't been called JavaScript for two decades now (but no one's going to use its real name, because ecmascript? really? do I need a cream for that?)
The risk of pancreatitis is also increased substantially [0]. And for people who may already be predisposed to pancreatitis but haven’t had an attack, severe pancreatitis has a 10-30% mortality rate [1]. But even mild acute pancreatitis will make you want to crawl out of your own skin in pain.

So I'm thinking - on the one hand, the effectiveness of microwaves drops with r². On the other hand, this solution enables continuous tracking and delivery (whether the beam itself is continuous or pulsed), and it only uses electricity, which may have significant logistics benefits over any kind of physical projectile.

You are way way off on your faraday cage gap sizing.

In order to block EM fields with frequencies of 10 GHz and lower, the hole size of the Faraday cage should be smaller than 3 mm.

You want the hole to be less than 1/10th the wavelength of the frequency you’re trying to block

I don't think that's a loophole. On the contrary, if 230 were reinterpreted to mean that online content providers were legally required to have no editorial control over user provided content, that would be a pretty significant departure from current case law.

Section 230 is quite short and (to my mind) somewhat vague, which I think lends itself to different understandings. But I don't think it could be reasonably interpreted to mean that online publishers cannot moderate user content as they see fit.

Presumably the dose can be altered such that for a given individual their appetite creates a caloric equilibrium at close to the target weight. I don't think this is something that is done currently.

Hear me out. 40 hours dedicated to your employer, however you slice them, is modern slavery. Why the hell are we creating all this technology to slave even more, with only energy to drool in front of Netflix and repeat the next day?

People should have the time to explore their passions, projects and families more than a couple hours every day. Not dedicate half of their waking life, their mental and physical prime, to someone else's idea for food money.

Something snapped for me the past few years, but I'd rather eat ramen, than get $250k a year and expected to be at my employer's beck and call 8am-5pm. Go be an hungry artist. Go work for yourself on the things you care about.

The fact that pretty much no one seems to see anything wrong with this terrifies me. Being a corporate drone has become the norm.

I believe the only path forward for x86 is to be a "x86 accelerator", a x86 mode in some future AMD/Intel RISC-V processors, perhaps limited to unprivileged "usermode".

Easing the transition until x86 can be relegated to emulation.
