Reading this interview and the comments doesn't really spark a lot of confidence in the product (in Dutch): https://tweakers.net/reviews/14562/nextcloud-met-een-strik-e...
I paints the picture of it being mostly a hyped marketing wrapper around Nextcloud that hasn't even launched yet.
My number one bug for years that baffles me as to why Apple hasn’t fixed it: Zooming in on heavy websites or PDFs (with large images or WebGL) force closes the Safari tab. Over and over again.
Text selection peaked with Force Touch, where holding the space button, moving to start point, pressing down even harder to start selection en lifting finger at the end was sooo ergonomic.
So many examples mentioned can be explained by network effect, first mover advantage, or an already saturated market, instead of underestimating the making of a good product.
For the power users: you can swipe up from the bottom URL bar and then swipe from rtl on a thumbnail to close. That’s two actions instead of three.
You can also swipe right or left on the URL bar to switch tabs.
Alternatively hold the URL bar and press close.
I’m using a 12 mini and I’m running into so many typos since the new iOS. Maybe the combination of buggy software with their smallest screen is making it even worse.
What I always wonder is which people use SQLite to run tests for a Postgres application. Isn’t the difference in dialect pretty much always an issue unless you do only the most basic type of queries? pglite fills a hole where imho currently only dockerized Postgres sits
I saw visible pink bands from my balcony in Amsterdam, showing bright pink fading to green when looking through my iPhone. And yes, lots of light pollution here. Shows how crazy strong this northern light was.

This is his actual running pace. Strava only calculates pace including the stops when you set the activity type to ‘race’, which he didn’t.
Try and get an invite for Arc. It solves these problems. Honestly i thought this post was just a secret marketing plug by one of their employees haha, but no one mentions it in the comments so far.
You can then ‘grab’ the cursor and move it. Or just use the hold spacebar trick two merge those two steps into a single action.
I partially agree with that shaming strangers might not be a good way forward. But I also believe in some basic level of 'holding each other accountable'.
Maybe, besides political leaders and businesses, that should be limited to inner circle family and friends with whom you have a more complex relationship, and where there is a little bit more receptiveness towards critique. Even in that context it's probably better to just live the lifestyle yourself and hope they will follow.
On the other hand, if you put something out there, to be discussed publicly on HN, I don't feel obliged to only give positive feedback necessarily. Also, the author picked this up in a really nice way and has already added carbon stats to the page.
But man, it's so hard if you deeply care about something to keep your mouth shut. I don't know if you have any topics that make you feel like that?
Edit: actually responding to the rest of your comment, I'm a strong believer in the power of individual choices. The whole plant-based movement for example in The Netherlands (and outside) over the last few years was fully driven by individual consumer choices and little bits of money shifting in other directions. European politics actually tried to hinder it for a while, but at some point when something becomes the popular thing to think, politics will have to follow.
You're right, there could be many reasons. But given the time we live in know it seems like something you don't want to wear with pride or without a disclaimer.
It's a fine balance between caring about stuff and wanting to raise awareness while also seeing other human beings for who they are, assuming good intent.
I'm happy to return to the comment section here and see I'm not alone in my frustration over the author seeming to take pride in this crazy amount of air miles. Until that chart I really enjoyed scrolling through the page, seeing all the time and obsession the author put into this.
That works because the purpose — at least currently — doesn't actually cannibalise on the profits.
To me it looks like they took most of their inspiration from Things 3
I had the same, also took 5 days for me because of the timezones. I was a customer for barely 2 days when I was locked out.
I triggered their spam algorithm by using the ‘redirect’ button in Apple mail to send an invoice to my administration tool, which keeps the original sender in the ‘from’ field.
I gave them the benefit of the doubt for now, since their offering is really good.

So even if it’s obvious that there is no unique ID in there, you still need to show the notice?
We really need to lobby for a smarter law.
