I think it can be reached through settings, then the question mark.

Explanation of the pieces would be nice too!

90s kids won at MTG by having the more convincing argument.

Just wanted to say I appreciate your responses here. Engaging so directly with a highly critical audience is a minefield that you're navigating well.

Thank you.

As a side note, Einstein read Mach but strongly opposed logical positivism[0].

When I read the title the first thing that came to my mind were Magna Tiles. Glad they made it on the list.

It's the only toy in the house that lasted the test of time from she 4-8 (and counting). Also I love tidying up Magna tiles, even that is fun!

My oldest kid got a small sample of Clixco and was surprisingly entertained even with a limited set of possibilities they offered. They're great fidget toys as well.

Nice idea but I think the predictions are way off. I ran a 3:17 in spring and targeting a 3:10 marathon in a couple of weeks.

As unlikely as it sounds Strava predicts 3:13 (think they base it on my last marathon), Garmin is similar. Runalyze is about as off as you are.

Maybe you're putting too much emphasis on weekly volume. M35 and I can run this with 50k weekly and 75k peak volume. Relatively confident I'd be able to sub 3 with weekly volume of 80k/100k peak.

Reading Faust in school left a lasting impact on me and an appreciation for the language as a tool of art.

I believe many are not even aware of the amount of proverbs coming from that classic:

Des Pudels Kern - the poodles core/crux of the matter

Gretchenfrage - the essential question

... And many more that I won't bother trying to translate.

I believe it's referencing this: https://github.com/KonnorRogers/view-layer-benchmarks

I'm definitely the target audience for this: I hate Goodreads and I still use it on a weekly basis.

A couple questions:

- where do you get your book data from? To my knowledge Amazon has a de facto monopoly on this and there's nothing more frustrating than missing latest or niche books, its covers, etc. or having wrong data/duplicates.

- do you plan on offering a migration path? I've got years worth of data on Goodreads.

I love this and want to order a couple pairs!

1. Are the branded/not branded models the same cut? Since the angle on the pictures are different it's hard to judge.

2. Why do you not have more pictures of the shoes? Since those are probably impossible to try/return I want to try and avoid a wasted purchase.

3. What import taxes can one expect ordering to the EU?

My loves goes out to your son! This is a great achievement that needs no comparing and it is a great achievement on its own.

Well done to him and the whole family in supporting him!

Someone democratically elected can still end democratic processes.

But just like there are the EM and Higgs fields there could be countless other fields that don't affect our day to day reality in any way, but in that sense they might as well not exist.

Then you also have to accept that you're not talking about objective reality in any way but isolated to human experience and limited by our cognitive and experimental abilities.

Yes, mission statements are usually just bullshit.

But if you want to fulfil your mission you still need to make money, otherwise you have a dead company.

Making money can never be a goal in itself. At the very least the money serves the status of founders and shareholders or enables one to pursue economically unviable hobbies.

That's not what was said though, populism wasn't presented as the answer, only as a straw man.

I've followed Calm closely when I was in the startup game and I think they deserve recognition for trying to find a different way. One that benefits founders (primarily bootstrappers) and investors alike.

Seems like the third party in the mix has taken the hit in this constellation.

Thanks for your work and sharing openly!

For anyone interested in other theories that were not mentioned and not satisfied with the unfalsifiability of Many Worlds I can recommend reading Carlo Rovelli's book Helgoland and his Relational Quantum Mechanics[0].

Prototyping with children is such a rewarding task, thanks for sharing the process!

Goff being one of the most popular modern panpsychists you're save to assume he's aware of its history.

I guess he uses the term less these days because it's too easily dismissed as something esoteric.

Your ecosystem has gone so complex that you can't test it anymore. So instead of handling errors properly you suggest to implement a convoluted user flow that offers always failing actions (install a printer when there's none available).

If that's really the suggestion of product and engineering leadership at MSFT no wonder all their products...err...work as designed.

Great to see this on here. My kids (4 and 6) spent some good amount of hours on your colouring templates already.

Thanks for not making this a subscription, or force me to use an app.

I just can't get my head around this argument of 'scales to zero'.

If you have one or more professional developers working on a project how can you be bothered about an extra $20-$200/month when you know you'll also be spending a couple of engineering hours (worth more than $200) on migrating later?

But in reality those limits don't disappear, they just get buried deeper, hidden in the docs somewhere.

AWS Lambda has a default concurrency limit of 1k and each function has a configurable memory limit.

Sure, those limits allow for a lot more elasticity and flexible pricing but the limitations haven't disappeared.

Also, there are now some 'serverless' hosting providers that do fixed monthly pricing (fermyon.com/pricing). Isn't this taking the best part of serverless ad absurdum or is there something I'm missing?

Lastly, I hope I don't sound argumentative. I work for a company that has the described problem of multi-tenant SaaS and I love Postgres, so I am fully supportive of your mission!

Serious follow-up question: So the difference between 'managed' and 'serverless' databases is that for the former I know some level of infrastructure (CPU, RAM, size, etc.) whereas for the latter it's completely hidden and priced in?

I was also only aware of your first definition of serverless.

Your design looks very professional.

As theoretical advice I would suggest to read the book 'The cold start problem'. It explains how two sided marketplaces work and how you can get them started.

As practical advice I would suggest finding people in proximity to you and asking them if they would like to try it.

The same can be done online, try searching for Reddit threads and other pieces where people who are your target audience might hang out.

I consider free will fundamentally an illusion but at the abstraction level of 'me' (also a faulty abstraction) it does make sense to use these concepts sometimes.

But it's important not to confuse the map with the territory.

'Assume good faith' is part of the HN guidelines.

Not OP, but as someone who had his first trip a couple of months ago, I can relate to a couple of points you're calling out.

Regarding integration: I have had appointments with a therapist specialised on integrating peak experiences and for me what worked was to have someone to discuss and extract meaning and insights from the trip and find 'hooks' how to make them part of daily life.

Regarding the amnesia, I can also relate. I still remember the insights, the lessons, the characters and the meaning of my trip. But it gets harder and harder to connect to the feelings of the trip, which in turn make the insights less 'sticky'.

It captures my journey between the chairs of IC, engineering manager and product manager but I've mostly written about the latter.

You are right if you believe there is an absolute answer that is true for everyone.

If you are looking for an answer that makes sense in relation to your specific context, your life, your consciousness, then drugs might be useful.

This seems to be great advice. Is this your own principal or is there any source/further reading on this approach?
