Early start for anyone on the west coast
victor96··on Chrome ships WebGPU
The difficulty is the number of people still running old versions, as soon as new iOS versions come out a super high percentage of people switch. And with browsers you have to account for the update cycles of every browser on the market.
victor96··on Chrome ships WebGPU
This is super exciting for us as we develop interactive browser UIs. I hope future versions of WebGPU will be backwards compatible to all those with Chrome 113.

We need an iOS like pace of updating for browsers!

victor96··on Bob Lee, former CTO of Square, has died after being stabbed in San Francisco
Sad to hear about this, was it just a random attack?
victor96··on America Has Too Much Parking
Opening in incognito like everyone does on Medium doesn't work
victor96··on Safari releases are development hell
I've always struggled with Safari for it's terrible WebGL implementation. Even had to globally disable anti-aliasing otherwise the app would be unusably slow!
victor96··on Llama.cpp 30B runs with only 6GB of RAM now
Less memory than most Electron apps!

victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
Thanks for your feedback, we'll do a review of our onboarding.
victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
Awesome, let us know if you have any feedback on the tool.

For the canvas we use https://pixijs.com, it's super powerful/performant and works well for us.

victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
Thanks for your response, sorry to hear you moved away due to performance limitations.

We've been working hard to improve our performance/scalability for large models over the last couple of years. We shipped major updates in this area recently so I'd be interested to hear when you last used the tool.

I'd love to dig into what issues you had so we can make sure they're resolved for you/other people.

Please reach out to me at mail@icepanel.io

Maybe as the demo link we provided takes you into a flow. You can try the following one which has less going on.

Thanks, great points. Especially the last one about it being difficult for an org to figure out who should be editors/readers/etc. It's definitely a challenge for us that we'll need to think more about.
victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
Awesome, let us know your thoughts/feedback!

We have ideas to increase the capability of readers to make edit suggestions, that can be accepted by an editor. This way you can have some of the more junior team members included in the reader count.

How would this sound for you?

victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
Yeh it would work better for consuming
victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
Diagramming on a tablet is an interesting idea, maybe it can provide a better whiteboard-like experience.
victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
Awesome, let us know how it goes, we're keen for any feedback.

Great talk by Simon Brown! There's also a similar talk from Devoxx a few months ago.

Looks super interesting, giving visuals some structure is super helpful especially when you have so much information to display. Helps make it navigable/digestable.

What tools would you see IcePanel integrating with?
victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
Thanks for letting us know your preference here, will look into it!

We found trackpad/mouse in the browser to be a bit of a headache. This stackoverflow thread talks about the problems.

victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
good catch! we've pushed a quick update to this.
victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
PixiJS is a bit lower level, it has some primitive shapes like line/box but we draw most things ourselves.
victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
We use https://pixijs.com, great project!
victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
I'm wondering if things like SysML and UML are too heavyweight for most modern teams, who work in agile ways.
victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
We don't import PlantUML directly yet, but something we can look at.
victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
Thanks for letting us know, we'll look at getting those fixed.
victor96··on Launch HN: IcePanel (YC W23) – Onboard engineers with explorable system designs
We use https://pixijs.com for the interactive canvas, we found it to be super powerful and performant. It also has a great open source team behind the project shipping big updates.

What format are you thinking? We import Structurizr workspace JSON files, which can be exported from the DSL.
