It takes less than a minute to walk calmly from my front door in an apartment complex to a public beach in Tampere, Finland. In my neighbourhood, you just see random people walking on the sidewalk in bathrobes on their way to the beach or back. It's 15 minutes walk from the city center.

There’s a Finnish startup working on something similar: https://kelluu.com/

Could you elaborate on these horror stories?

I'm too stuck at the chess move with XXXVJanuarypepsi@3pe4g99tractHechile

I always thought the SUM() function in spreadsheets was “here be maths” function. So, whenever I do anything in spreadsheets I wrap it in =SUM(), like SUM(A1 / B1).

I know it’s wrong, but it’s in muscle memory already.

Like:

  one["Some value {100}"]
  two["Other value {200}"]
  computation["Sum is {first + second}"]
  one--first-->computation
  two--second-->computation

I think it's intuitive and works, but tab and shift+tab in the shortcuts menu are about adding children and parents. So, adding instructions for it is enough :)

I definitely would give the computation beta a try. My use case would be just "more visual Excel".

It's important that the nodes can also have non-formulae content, e.g.

salary["Salary<br/>`${1500}` €"]

Interested in seeing how you have implemented referencing the inputs.

Edit: You answered the last question with the video. Looks interesting, but having to add one extra node for the variable declaration feels cumbersome.

Edit 2: What if the outputs of the nodes could be named with text in the links?

I use Mermaid to visualize all sorts of processes, so this is very interesting.

Some immediate feedback:

- ability to name the node ID, because now the Mermaid output is hard to read and edit

- more shapes (diamond, circle, etc.)

- text on connection

- shortcut to connect with a node after one is staged for connection (didn't find one at least)

- ability to select connections with keyboard

- shortcut to delete the selected connection (now you need to click Disconnect, the shift+delete doesn't seem to work)

The layout gives me Excel vibes: what if these nodes could export values and do computation? Like, the Apple Income Statement example, but dynamic. This combined with an ability to export a snapshot as a Mermaid diagram, it would be great to explain business cases, etc.

Hacking with an SMS controlled HVAC system and I clicked the link with probably similar expectations as you.

I can’t find any pricing details on the landing page. It looks good, though. Maybe I give it a try.

How do you integrate to Microsoft products?

The number of lives saved by car seats sounded very low, but the paper compares reduced childbirths to the saved lives because of the law (mandating the use of car seats), not to the saved lives because of car seats themselves.

One consulting company website is just a logo, another doesn't exist.

I listened a talk by Roger Penrose 7 hours ago and then there's an Escher post 3 hours later.

They seem extremely opaque about it.
