2 words: quality control

while we’re sharing personal experiences:

1. have seen people get their laptops snatched in coffee shops, right in front of them

2. friend mugged at gunpoint at emeryville bart station, and pistol whipped on the head even after giving up his belongings

3. had someone break into an apartment in our apartment complex

4. had a drunk guy follow me & my wife, while waving a bottle in his hand. I honestly thought a confrontation was going to be unavoidable, but luckily we got home before he caught up with us

5. a friend had her old, beat-up car broken into so often, she stopped getting the window replaced

San Francisco loves to impose regulations and collect taxes. Meanwhile tax payers and lawful citizens have to not only deal with filthy streets and mentally unstable individuals, but are also shamed for pointing out the existence of any of these problems.

the only thing keeping me sane is that I’m moving out of this shithole of a city in a month.

the last time I tried it a few months back, it was extremely buggy, especially around undo

1. Alfred Powerpack - clipboard manager, snippets, workflows

2. Chase Sapphire Preferred - rental car insurance, free memberships for Doordash (12 months), Instacart (6 months) etc

3. IWI multivitamins

hmm - the examples work on Chrome for both osx & ios, but ffox has a 500 on ios.

more and more, websites seem to care only about Chrome

works for me on osx chrome & ios chrome/ffox

looks clean and simple.

has drawing tools become a hot space of late? there seem to be a lot of options (i usually use diagrams.net, but have also heard of lucidchart), so would be great to have some sort of comparison b/w the various tools

Postgraphile, Hasura, Supabase etc might be of interest to you

tldr: they're pivoting from placement agency to job board

i'm not sure about the viability of their "search criteria" though - things like test coverage, release cadence etc are team specific, so it's hard to define it at a company-level, other than maybe small startups

In general, the monthly expense for a home is ~.5% of the home price. Comparing that to the rent is a decent starting point.

In your example, monthly expense of ownership is ~2250, which is lower than the rent of 3000.

Of course, this doesn’t take into account the down payment and risk associated with home price fluctuations.

Free speech for me, but not for thee

did you try apache superset? if so, any reason you went w metabase?

how is that different from a list containing 2 implementations of an interface?

I think gp meant that you don’t have to send a server request to handle every user interaction. The server has to handle much fewer user requests, and only return data (instead of generating the template as well).

if you're targeting OSX, there's an Alfred workflow that does this: https://git.deanishe.net/deanishe/alfred-video-conferences

should be the other way around - buy calls and sell puts.

that said, options usually are available a few days after the ipo, so may not accomplish the objective

big +1 for inoreader, esp when searching for new feeds.

their conviction on bitcoin, tesla, etc has been a significant driver of their returns. if they can continue being so prescient about controversial investments remains to be seen. not taking any credit away from them - their performance nothing short of phenomenal.

one thing they definitely get right is risk control/management - they cap individual holdings to 10%, so it provides profit-taking and cuts down single-holding risk by design

yes, as we have seen over the course of history, people are completely impervious to misinformation and propaganda.

updated results of a query - eg if you do some aggregation or filtering on a table, or join two tables, or anything of the sort - materialized view will give you the updated results of the query in a separate table

this doesn't work for wsj, ft etc - archive.is does

JVM as a platform is doing just fine, but other JVM languages seem to be taking over Java’s territory:

1. Kotlin replaced Java for Android development

2. Scala has become the primary language for some of the major tools in the data stack - spark, kafka etc

I’m sure there are other examples as well

Gleam may be what you're looking for:

there are open source options for creating markdown wikis, that support (almost?) all platforms, and filesystem-storage as well.

I'm a happy user of Boostnote.

Yep! Firefox supports vertical sidebars (which Chrome doesn't I guess?), so you find a lot of Firefox add-ons for vertical tree-style tab sidebars.

Sidebery is my favorite by far, because it also lets you organize the tabs in "panels", and lets you set keyboard shortcuts for navigating across panels. So you don't end up with a giant list of 50 tabs.

Eg I have 1 panel for email/chat/music, and a separate panel for each task I'm working on. Makes things a lot more manageable, since each panel usually has only 5-10 tabs.

you can set keyboard shortcuts to toggle the add-ons. Yes, you do have to go through the single page as you mentioned, but it's a one-time thing.

Personally, I can't leave Firefox due to:

1. Sidebery (on Desktop)

2. Night-mode (on Mobile)

On OSX, the "StackExchange Search" workflow for Alfred is also fantastic for doing this.

Firstly, you can bind it to a hotkey, so don't have to type "how do i" before the query

Secondly, it updates the list of results as you type. Then you can select the one that seems to be the most relevant to open it in the browser (with a hotkey)
