Yes. There are 23+k restaurants, how many of those are "fine-dining"? Put another way, you could go to a different Michelin starred restaurant every week in NYC and still not go through the list...

Also, not all Michelin restaurants are that good... (In NYC, I think they are because it is so competitive but I've been disappointed in SF and Hong Kong for instance).

So FYI - just because a restaurant has a Michelin star, it doesn't mean it is always packed nor good.

A restaurant with a Michelin star is a fairly common experience in NYC.

My favorite restaurant is called [Crown Shy](https://www.crownshy.nyc/) after this very thing. Enjoy but please try to keep what little secret is left by not spreading the good word too widely.

Hi! Congrats on launching!

We recently evaluated play.ht for TTS but decided against it because you had an async API which was harder to implement. Alternatives have sync APIs (including Google Cloud). Do you have plans to release a sync client for standard TTS?

This looks neat! So it's like super-charged intellisense for something in your code? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35251029

Looks helpful! What else is on the roadmap?

3244! The first photo was hard because it was recent but had an old car in it.

Interesting. Do you know if anything like this has been built internally at tech cos?

This is cool. I find myself also often taking screenshots and sharing as a convenient source of info.

I also feel like when I share the screenshot - via slack, the million messaging clients my various friends / colleagues use, etc. - the context and convo is often lost.

I see the value here in unifying that data in one place - instead of the screenshot, I can just share a link and then go and find all the screenshots somewhere. I like that. Actually, now that I think about it, if you set the `og tags`[1], chat apps should also make an image preview when you paste a link (maybe you are already doing this - I didn't check) so it's a similar effect as what we do today but with the added benefits of cataloging / commenting / finding.

Congrats on launching. Who do you envision as the primary users and first niche use cases?

Uhm what was the 001 porn?

Can’t you accomplish this by just making calendar events? What am I missing?

For many of us who moved from SF->Miami, politics had nothing to do with it. I’ve been in Miami over a year and I LOVE it. Come check it out :-)

Ps - I coorganize a software engineer meetup here. We’ve got good representation!

Way to go Sam! Mark my words: our generations' Carmack!

+1 ! Though, not a very good Oculus player (yet)!

My friends said they couldn't play Oculus

My team landed on a process of breaking projects down into milestones and then tasks and being consistent with buffers for both internal and external parties.

As a side project, I actually built a tool to help with this: "Calculeeto" (http://calculeeto.herokuapp.com/). Besides walking you through the process of breaking down your project and adding buffer, it also has features to assign dependencies and generate a schedule based on number of teammates -- it even adds time for communication overhead: http://calculeeto.herokuapp.com/?debug4

I never launched or finished it but it seemed useful.

This doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. Google also makes a lot off their apps and circumvents the App Store. Airbnb too. Apple is doing what it thinks is best for its customers. Perhaps people will pick iPhones over Android due to Apples strength with privacy.

This recall is only for the foam face insert. It's removable and probably very inexpensive to make / replace. Oculus is sending free replacements to folks.

I am an avid Quest 2 user since ~October. I play Population:one and _love_ it. It's a team-based Battle Royale. I am just blown away by how much fun and social it is. It's been a godsend during the pandemic.

The Quest 2 is only $300 - I strongly recommend it!

I really enjoyed this post and hope I get more like it in the future:

- It gave a high level, concise background overview of the base concept (B-trees) complete with diagrams

- It talked from first principles about how things worked without really any Jargon

- It explained simply a clever optimization

Thanks for posting!

A previous employer that underwent a massive multi-billon dollar migration to SOA (and then folks went too far and made everything a micro-service so had to rollup some work) basically because merging became too slow into our monorail as we got to ~O(1k) engineers. We had an in-house solution like this that we used for 2-3 years (and a worse version for years before that). What a great idea to productive it!

IMO the SOA migration simply due to merging was such a heavy-handed solution. If we could have made our MergeQueue way better, perhaps we could have avoided that multi-billion dollar (+ the rollback work) fiasco.

Congrats!

5.111 and 3.091 together? Seems like a lot! Hope you enjoy the Sadoway videos - he’s the best.

Well put

IMO high scores were a necessary but not sufficient condition. It was definitely a data point used

Cool. How does creation of a test work? Through DOM element inspection or screenshot comparison?

Oh wow super interesting - At my last job we had really poor testing and something to visually monitor for breakages would have been perfect. Does this do a screenshot diff between builds? Does it run on CI or periodically?

Don't forget burgeoning Miami!

Exactly - calendar notifications are "more important" than my frequent Clubhouse pings and having them in a more visible place is very helpful.

I don’t think so because the notifications in chrome get buried for me. Email alerts for lost in the deluge of work emails. The Apple Watch helps a lot actually

> Can someone give me an example of this problem? To me this feels so "extra"... Maybe I'm missing something.

The business value of missing a notification or meeting can be really high. I feel like businesses would happily pay $10 per user-month to have all their employees on time to a meeting. Or even just closer. I imagine similar logic can be applied to other notifications.

I tried Superpowered and liked it! Congrats on building a cool product! I see the value in having calendar alerts on your menu bar. I am real bad at remembering meetings and find the default alerts to be annoying or forgettable - I recently got an Apple Watch that has helped a lot with this though. I was a little surprised there was no free version with premium features - in my mind, the main benefit of alerts in my menu bar isn’t enough to pay. I may not be the right user (maybe businesses?). Could you share thoughts around the pricing? Are there other features I may be missing?

I haven't personally been on an infra team but I've seen Infra / Dev tools teams being overwhelmed with requests. This seems like a really helpful and elegant solution!
