  1. Normal productive people doing normal stuff reframed through the lens of pettiness and jealousy.
  2. This is based on my personal experience, I used to ride trains for travel a lot. I grew up in Europe and lived there for 31 years so this is not based on ignorance.
  3. Trains will fairly unreliably take you from one place that is not your home, to another place, which is not where you want to go, at a time that is probably not exactly when you wanted to arrive. Freedom of movement is incredibly important, and trains are very rigid in this aspect.
  4. Long time user of Monodraw, such a delightful app. My main use case is to draw view hierarchies, tables and diagrams in source comments.
  5. The only tiling window experience that stuck for me is Aerospace.
  6. But what we can't have is affordable housing and healthcare without private actors effectively involved in value creation. As has been demonstrated over and over again.
  7. Also, this track looks nothing like a competitive drone race track, the obstacles are easier and it seems designed to cater to the autonomous drones.
  8. Donating in times of stress is a great idea, just donated as well.
  9. 20% faster for some operations now, but with only a small subset of SQL implemented. Sound like making it as fast as SQLite will be hard with full compatibility given that I expect a lot more branching etc?

  10. Pre-announcing makes no sense when you're leading the pack, it's a stall tactic for your customers to not leave when trying to catch up.
  11. Nope, it's all there, look again (maybe not great on mobile or something?)
  12. HNHiringTrends[1] is my goto site when I try to explain the current hiring sentiment of software.

  13. By "maintenance mode" you mean shipping more features per year than the pre-Elon Twitter? Remember, the pre-Elon Twitter was completely stagnant and seemingly unable to ship even the most desired features.
  14. I really think Rust should adopt one of the popular datetime crates into the std lib - it's not reasonable to offload researching maintainer status and quality to each developer needing to use dates correctly.
  15. Where is the proof that Rust can achieve the productivity and design flexibility needed at browser scale?
  16. I know, I'm saying they implementation they ended up with is terrible.
  17. How they basically could not improve on tagged union enum types as you express them in C is to me one of the misses. Modeling data through effortless sum types is a requirement for me when picking up a modern language.
  18. I used vim for 25 years and I expect to use neovim for another 25. Return on investment in knowledge and skill is off the charts.
  19. So we're saying that the reason jets should be able to be tracked by anyone, in real time, is so we can enable targeted moral shaming? Everyone, regardless of wealth or mode of transportation should have the right to not be publicly real-time tracked. Let's find more constructive ways to solve our larger scale societal problems than to fall back on mob rule.
  20. The ultimate proof that Neovim has a healthy team of contributors, is that they successfully agreed on a new default color scheme. I am now convinced they can succeed with anything.
