Europe is in for a very long decline. There is no consumer generation (35-45 y/o) left in Europe, and the US is about to block Europe from exporting their excess production to the last standing consumer generation on…
We are about to be called on to automate everything, because we are short workers. And we will be for a decade. That's what you get for replacing the worlds largest generation, the Boomers, with the worlds smallest…
If you want a sneak preview of the functionality that can be delivered in Flutter at about the 100mb mark, sign up for the beta of https://www.superlist.com/
We are aware that multiple windows is an area of interest for potential users of the desktop platform. You can see the proposed API we have published for feedback:…
> On total whimsy, I tried Flutter. I downloaded it, and built "Hello World" for macOS. Not only did it take an eternity to compile (on my modern, SSD enabled, eleventy gigablip iMac), the result was 108MB. And that was…
I'm curious which operating systems people are still waiting for. We have delivered Windows, macOS and Linux on stable as of Flutter 3. We don't have plans to add more, but people in the community are working on things…
Fwiw, there is a viable work around. Android (and iOS) usage of the Google Maps APIs remain free. See the Mobile Native Dynamic Maps line on our pricing sheet: https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/pricing/sheet/ You…
I'm enjoying reading it. =)
You'd imagine wrong, if my past experience is anything to go by.
This is a question of perception. Faced with something that doesn't make sense, a geek will see it as a challenge, a puzzle, a worthy adversary. Geeks love challenges. A lot of people don't. I have many people who have…

An email address would help =)
I have 30 invites floating in my invite box if people are looking for one.
I love that you call the whole operational transform library of wave "just the ajax parts." I almost fell off my chair laughing.
My suspicion would be that your G1 doesn't have all the magic webkit extensions that are in safari mobile.
You forgot XHR.
How are they scary? I had a pair of 64gb quad hexacores in my last role...
I'm seeing more interest in my Wave user group from business folks than geeks. Kinda the opposite to what I expected.
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
Scala. Because it's the right combination of fun and pain. =)
PG's post is interesting, as always. The bit that is worrying me is the linked Etherpad animation. Am I the only one that looks at the Etherpad DVCS using javascript functions as the delta data format, and think XSS…
There is a rule of thumb in UI design wherein if someone blames operator error, that's shorthand for system failure. Obie's call that Alex's code base is bad is classic blame the operator behaviour.
Dude, frack no. Having everything in a database means you are tied to the speed of disk, instead of the speed of ram. The biggest issue with being purely ram resident is handling multi-threaded updates across your ram…
Think how different HN would be if the comment pages updated themselves in real time as people commented? Or a bug tracking system. Or a newspaper. Or pretty much any site, really.
Maybe it makes some sense in server apis? I don't know. I'm sold on using long polls in conjunction with actors...
