What about flipping it around, and creating a Tinder style app that showed painful problems to users? Most swiped right = biggest problem to solve

A browser-based version of Sketch would be huge - this is Figma's killer USP at the moment

Last year I deleted my blog's Instagram account (20,000 followers) and still have no regrets. Since then I've also deleted my personal Instagram account and my blog's Twitter account (7,000 followers). Still no regrets. The only thing I'm keeping is my personal newsletter list.

This company started off making bike wheels circa 2013 - https://www.bikeradar.com/news/article/loopwheels-spokeless-... - I know because I featured them on my own cycling blog too.

Could default to “Hangry” mode and just show you a map of places to get food inside X minutes, including average wait time once there. No buttons.

If your explanation to the officers was even 50% as longwinded as your blog post, I'm not surprised you nearly got yourself in trouble... (I think you admit as much when you talk about a "central mistake").

149 comments and no mention of http://www.ulyssesapp.com/ yet. Although the recent change to a subscription pricing model was off-putting at first, it is reassuring in some ways because it underlines the developer's longterm commitment.

That said, I've recently been using Notion for EVERYTHING at work, and now considering if I could do likewise for my personal notes/essays.

PS. It's funny how the intense competition between 'distraction-free' writing tools has almost become distracting in its own right.

Internet — noun — A global computer network providing a variety of information and communication facilities, consisting of interconnected networks using standardized communication protocol.

Best thing I've found via HN for months (years?)

Does that mean your ‘media’ is image-based?

Please tell us some more about your idea.. cos if it’s video, much of the below is moot.

Interesting that he mentions the Model T - wonder how the prices compares with a Model 3 when adjusted for inflation?

Edit: 1913 Model T runabout was $525 (taking the listed price 10 years after Ford’s inception as Tesla is now a similar age).

Adjusted for inflation that is now approx $13,840 according to https://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/cpicalc.pl

So at least 3 x cheaper than the $35,000-55,000 price of a Model 3.

This is a good primer https://alistapart.com/article/liminal-thinking

I'd like to hear Mr. Money Mustache's take on this.

- Bicycles.

Can you explain a scenario where you would use the resulting Sketch file? I still don't quite get it (probably as not familiar with React)

Should be cyclelove.cc

I'd recommend reading Cal Newport's "So Good They Can’t Ignore You: Why Skills Trump Passion in the Quest for Work You Love" for some great insights on how to build your skills whilst changing jobs/careers. His approach in 3 steps:

1. Develop skills that are rare and valuable

2. Do something useful and good for the world

3. Work with people you like

The article mentions two industries that Apple might pivot into: wearables and transportation.

But I don't think Apple's industry focus will ever shift.

Rather their/our definition of what 'personal computing' means will continue to evolve as the technology does.

An iPhone is a personal computer. An Apple Watch wants to be a personal computer. Apple won't ever stop being a personal computer company.

It's just that some day, a personal computer will be precisely that: a computer inside a person, integrated as software and hardware. A human iOS.

Surely that is the ultimate endgoal, and not an aluminum car (with a charge point under its chasis) that can talk.

Bingo. I asked a longer version of this question on Twitter but it was > 80 chars.

Some of the videos I've seen on YouTube look pretty darn painful.

And you hit the nail on the head in terms of what I was angling at :)

On a related note: http://qz.com/811525/sweden-gives-its-fixer-citizens-tax-bre... -> "Sweden offering tax breaks to citizens who repair, not replace, broken things"

And shouldn't it be illegal to price products like this?

The Lost Art of Writing by Hand is a thing too. A sad one at that.

As a digital designer, I can second this... hopefully Sketch or InVision will make maintaining asset libraries easier in the near future.

"We initially tried to create these components as symbols in Sketch, which resulted in a mess. Even now, our Sketch files are sometimes challenging to maintain. Moving forward, we hope to find better ways of maintaining and creating new components."
