Agree that it's an abstraction that OP doesn't know the definition of, but there's also a tendency for people to * over-abstract (where you could replace the abstraction name with a slightly more verbose but clearer…
With enough investment, Firefox could also innovate and introduce features that aren't in Chrome or Safari to actually win users back
Part of the problem is that the in-app purchase cut isn't just for payments infra, it also includes the rest of the infrastructure and value prop for the app store(s), which is otherwise only $100/year, which is nothing…
Yeah the comments in this thread are baffling (or they didn't read the 100 character tweet lol). The tweet is just describing domain specific database-like websites. Have people not heard of allrecipes.com? Yummly? Or…
Yeah this feels a little bit like a declarative configuration file for Hasura/Firebase (which is already a good idea). Looking forward to seeing how far you can take the frontend stuff!
Did you even read the article? The author addresses this concern.
> this book reminded me what a time saver a good book is compared to lots of googling and blog posts I had the same reaction! The information density is perfect. If anybody else loved this book and has similar…
A lot of commenters are focusing on the RPA part, but what seems to be more novel (to me at least) is the passive discovery of what could be automated with RPA. That seems like a generically hard problem, good luck!
I made a janky open source version of this. I haven't gotten around to polishing it. https://github.com/boconnell/spatially-aware-video-chat
Yeah, this title is currently overadvertising the product. Without even getting into the non-OLTP DB parts of Firebase, Hasura is much further along towards being a Firebase replacement. It already handles auth and a…
Until yesterday, I would've voted Prisma. There was actually a Show HN post recently that debuted Zapatos: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23273543. The top comment also mentions mammoth:…
As far as I can tell, prisma has turned into just an open source typescript query builder (probably the best in it's class though). Prisma used to be graph.cool which was very similar to Hasura.
If you didn't have unlimited PTO, how much would you be happy with? Tell, not ask, your manager your expectation. This is ideally done immediately upon starting. Afterwards, act like you have that amount of a vacation,…
I presume you are a vegan then
I want a social network consisting entirely of people who have walked the walk before writing about it please. The r/ask* subs are a decent start. Experts in their field who tweet about their field (and not unrelated…
"Filling business needs" is also not an objectively useful thing. There are many businesses I would prefer not advertise (e.g. cigarette and gun companies) and many more industries that are nearly zero-sum (and thus…
If they stop this option, I'm moving off of it ASAP. It's the only feature keeping me on there.
What if we provided the proper funding and... didn't hunt them.

And on the flip side, if you're the interviewee and you don't pass an interview, try not to beat yourself up. It just means the interviewer / interviewing company is looking for something different.
I agree, but I think companies who build a product where the end user isn't the customer unsurprisingly tend to be worse.
I'm not sure about resources for starting a co-op outside the US, but here are some resources I've found on how to start a co-op. Web searching will find more. - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14135068 -…
This is the dream. OpenStreetMap is another great example of such an idea. To take it a step further, I'd encourage setting the non-profit up as a worker's cooperative. Just imagine all of the big companies out there…
I recently went through a job search focusing on organizations doing social good. Full disclosure, I now work at Remix (https://www.remix.com/jobs) and we're hiring! We're a for-profit founded by a collection of former…
Did you really just imply a richer person has a more nuanced view on politics because they're rich? Smh
