One of the advantages of Overleaf is that I can share a link with a collaborator and they only need a browser to participate. I assume with this, everyone will need to download the editor?

Especially in the research space, I really recommend Twitter. In Software Engineering many really interesting researchers and practitioners tend to share their experiences there. In my experience it's a great way to virtually meet others who you would probably otherwise never encounter.

Heard of "Scrum"? Follow Jeff Sutherland (https://twitter.com/jeffsutherland). Like Conway's Law? Follow Melvin Conway (https://twitter.com/conways_law).

Ah, right, this article reminded me of the fact, that ARM was bought by SoftBank back in 2016. Seems they actually picked some winners, not just WeWork and Wag.

Pink sauce?!

Wait, hold up: "She makes it in a commercial facility that is certified by the Food and Drug Administration", and she's been "serving it to my clients for a year", but also "This is a small business that is moving really, really fast".

A small business using a commercial FDA-certified facility to make a pink sauce and the recipe has apparently been used for a year is moving really, really fast? Really, really fast in the marketing department, I would assume...

"pure HTML/CSS/JS" sounds great, but then there is no demo hosted directly on GitHub pages? Form submission could just go nowhere.

I would love to get a quick taste of what you think makes this special.

Hey, thanks for the recommendations! These sound great.

This is one of those headlines that initially reads like a joke until you think of the economics of it. "cost is about 5-10% of the cost of an equivalent system built with off-the-shelf computer parts."

I wonder if this is due to the fact that the Playstation hardware is (was?) competitively priced to encourage revenue generation through games? Or was Sony simply very good at mass-producing these units?

> “At least you can say that in Pratchett’s books, the bloody elves never sang!”

Terry Pratchett I think is one of my favourite writers to read. The absurdity of his fantasy settings is just the right level of entertaining for me. Everything flows so smoothly that I sometimes get the subtle jokes only on my second read-through.

So this is the killer application for the blockchain? Not a store of value, but a store of chess games?

In all seriousness, I'm not sure chess needed an "entertaining crypto layer" or "NFTs tied to pieces"... Best of luck

I mean, there is even stuff like linking to pages in PDF files... but I feel like it's another feature that's rarely used.

Maybe, in an ideal world, I could imagine an editing experience with a split screen editor with the article text and the references open at the same time. Right now, it does feel like references are an afterthought in the editing workflow.

This reminds me of branching in PlanetScale (https://docs.planetscale.com/concepts/branching). I am not an expert, though. Is this a similar approach in terms of use case?

I really feel like the lack of well-structured citations is what's keeping many Wikipedia articles back. It's just not good enough to throw some paper reference (potentially behind a paywall) or a news article after a full paragraph of text.

Often when editing a page, I am left wondering where exactly the previous editor has gotten a fact from. The Wiki markup even allows "quotes", i.e. short extracts of what exactly you're referring to, but I've yet to see anyone beside myself actually use it consistently.

Having a structured list of references for a given topic in a Wikipedia article is incredibly helpful!

Some thoughts:

* Menetrend? like in mean as in average? Unfortunately also has a slight connotation with a butchered version of MemeTrend...

* Is it just me who somehow isn't accustomed to seeing *.xyz domains used for serious stuff?

* Insights, reports and automations sound great, but how is this different from other solutions?

* Most importantly, which platforms are supported? TikTok? LinkedIn? Or only standard Twitter, FB, Insta? What do you mean by social media?!

What about Tip 8. "Provide consistently interesting newsletter content that provides value to readers and keeps them engaged and more likely to open your next newsletter based on the content they have previously enjoyed."?

I consider task estimation as part of Sprint Planning an interesting domain, as multiple people in a team with potentially vastly different experience levels and skills are involved.

MacIver points out "if you’re doing sprint planning, and you absolutely have to do it through estimating individual tasks", give three point estimates a try. Here is the Wiki entry for that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-point_estimation

I guess explicitly recording the best-case and worst-case estimates might be interesting.

I'm glad they improved the placement of the side buttons to be more "normal", i.e. more like other mice. I think that was the thing that annoyed me most about the 2S.

I use the Apple Podcasts app frequently and have notified myself relying on the "Up Next" feature quite heavily. It seems to produce a steady flow of different, updated episodes from my subscriptions for me. I've never noticed "getting all of their episodes flooding your notifications", I guess I have notifications for the app muted?

I used to use the queue quite a lot, but got frustrated with e.g. political episodes that included current events which would no longer be super relevant after some time.

I agree that the exact error locations in tracebacks seem like the most impactful change here. Particularly in the light that Python is often used as an introductory language and unhelpful error messages are incredibly frustrating. Like this it feels like they can become more of a tool to improve!

I agree that MacOS seems to be missing some basics out of the box. Especially the lack of native support for tiling windows was annoying to me as well. I'm using https://rectangleapp.com (the free version) now for this, which works well for me.
