Love it! MCP apps is still new and under-utilised and we need to understand it's boundaries and compatibility.

ashrodan··on An app-driven, dark kitchen-dominated future?
It's a good observation.

What this is proving is that consumer behaviour is shifting rapidly with us wanting eye catching food with that ow so fuzzy feeling of something being delivered to you without the need to talk to anyone.

Consumers have a higher perceptual need to satisfy their food desires knowing that cooking for themselves might not make the mark.

And with the rise of evergrowing distractions cooking for yourself is a chore now easily avoidable.

Albeit I'll skip trying to rationalise our habits of overindulgence with something that's convenient and satisfying even if it's short-lived...

ashrodan··on Ask HN: What is the best enterprise software you use every day?
It's god awful UI is laggy Chat has no threading Integrations are limited
ashrodan··on Testing Firefox more efficiently with machine learning
I've used it for small projects and it's okay. Rq is quite simple and limited in a sense.

I guess what I'd recommend to Mozilla, although fantastic work, is that's it worth trying to compute certain features (data points) upfront to simplify the main model. These calculated features can be used as inputs to the main model possibly reducing the response time.

Runnable has the same offering, now bought out by mulesoft.

They charged per user.

ashrodan··on Show HN: Egeria, a multidimensional spreadsheet for everybody
Then how do you support it? What happens when you need to upgrade or fix a bug? It's nice to hear that you'll support different needs but be careful as this could cause unnecessary complexities and take you away from developing the core product and improvements. Makes me cringe thinking about supporting different versions of the same product.

I'd suggest stick to the cloud offering and get compliant with gdpr and soc etc

Check out https://www.sigmacomputing.com As they have done just this.

Nice work though! Keen to test it out. Hopefully a mobile version is on the roadmap.

ashrodan··on Show HN: A mobile-friendly, web-based, countries of the world game
It's the punishment for not getting the answer right! I thought the same initially, to show the explanation after every try but the explanation comes as reward once you get it right. You get unlimited chances to guess the wrong ones so might as well force the learning of the question and reward it with the info.
ashrodan··on WhatsApp Web
I am very impressed with WA first cut at a web interface. The login is simply genius and the interface is clean and minimalist.

When revealing it to my friends in a Whatsapp group some where very curious and hesitant to know if the service is more vulnerable that it's now has a web service.

I initially assured them that is practically the same it being on any other platform, however I had some doubts myself.

Thought Id open it up to HN... IS whatsapp now more vulnerable with the new web interface?
