The only thing I'll say is that it's great to see the feedback in this thread applied. It became very obvious to me what the tool is for and an abstract idea of what I can do with it.

However as others have said:

- A demo video would do a lot for your product.

- nit: Real-time markdown -> change to something that emphasizes collaboration/collaborative editing. For two reason - it's a much more familiar term in the space you are building and it's easier to understand (I think) for more people.

- A sample workspace (either public or a "starter workspace" that's available by default in a new account) that is non-trivial would be great to showcase your product. Look at obsidian using obsidian itself for it's own documentation site.

- Your about page is very well written - I wonder if you can pull up somethings from there onto the main page. https://hyperclast.com/about/

I didn't sign up yet however so can't provide more feedback.

Doesn't help much because even the standard library bitrots after enough Python releases. I have things I write today but can't run on a NAS that has older Python. No issues like that with Powershell for example.

Which of those are evolving at the rate of frameworks?

BTW I'm of the opinion that frontend tooling developers should actually try to contribute things to HTML and CSS instead of building "component libraries" on top of them.

If the native controls were good and if the browsers allowed using "uniformly styled" versions of them then there would be no good reason for such libraries to exist.

It's both reassuring and frustrating. Reassuring because they decided to secure IPC somehow. Disappointing because this is such an unexpected failure mode.

My scroll direction broke, custom operations that I had apparently "saved" to the mouse also stopped working.

Codex for me behaves very junior engineer-ish. Claude is smarter and tries to think long term.

A great example of their behaviours for a problem that isn't 100% specified in detail (because detail would need iterations) is available at https://gist.github.com/hashhar/b1215035c19a31bbe4b58f44dbb4....

I gave both Codex (GPT5-ExHi) and Claude (Opus 4.5 Thinking) the exact same prompts and the end results were very different.

The most interesting bit was asking both of them to try to justify why there were differences and then critiquing each other's code. Claude was so good at this - took the best parts of GPTs code, fixed a bug there and ended up with a pretty nice implementation.

The Claude generated code was much more well-organised too (less script-like, more program like).

Redbook is also the Audio CD standard. Lots of redbooks exist.

The area I live in has homes that remain empty because the investor doesn't need the capital nor the space and just holds empty units for multiple years when they eventually sell (for even more than they would have sold in the past).

Housing demand will always be > 0 as long as population is growing and hence there can never be a oversupply.

It's trivial to enumerate all the phone numbers in the world.

Going from -50dB to -44dB is a much louder change than going from -6dB to 0dB.

Human hearing is logarithmic. The dB is measuring ratio of sound pressure level and it's accurate that +/-3dB is almost doubling/halving of the SPL.

This is exactly it. The people who get confused by decibels are treating it a unit in it's own right when it's really just a ratio of some unit.

You only really need SSH access on a box to use it as a git remote - no server needed.

I learnt this quite late and was not obvious to me so hope it's helpful for you too.

Not really. Downloads is out of bounds and the root folder is also out of bounds.

WhatsApp media lives in separate folder.

PDFs that I download live in downloads folder (which you can't give access to for some reason anyway).

Music lives elsewhere and so on.

PlexAmp has DJs which allow you to get the song/playlist based radios.

LMS (Logitech now Lyrion) also has something similar in MusicIP (not as good as PlexAmp).

Plexamp can surely do bit-perfect playback, not vanilla Plex though.

I'm from India too (but at-least a generation older than this kid) and to clarify:

proposed = asking for a date or if he's too forward / self-centered then asking her to "be my girlfriend"

crush = a girl I like but haven't told that to her or shown it in public

And yes for kids in school it's quite common to initiate conversations through mutual friends because otherwise gossip spreads too quick and can sometimes be damaging (both emotionally and socially).

Yes, a lot of ISPs do this even after I try to write to them explaining why it doesn't make sense. My ISP is Airtel in India, they very recently started assigning IPv6 at all but it's a single /64 only.

The other big one I know, Jio (from Reliance) also offers just a single /64.

I'm not sure, there's also HOT-updates (heap-only tuples). It's an optimization where data in modified in place if none of the modified columns are part of an index and maybe other conditions but I don't remember it all too well.

By paperclip optimizing loop did you by any chance mean https://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/index2.html?

IIRC USA is 110V, not 220V?

it would be nice to find an easy UXsy way to preview the sheet data and say "select from this range" or "these are the headers".

Indeed. Defining the UX when the only UI you have is a SQL query is a bit challenging.

Very impressive project indeed and solves a real problem a lot of people and companies have. I wish you luck.

Very interesting. Seems conceptually (and implementation wise too) quite similar to https://trino.io/docs/current/connector/googlesheets.html.

Where are you storing the structure of the sheet though? Is it re-evaluated on each query? I am thinking about cases where a column header is renamed or the data types in a column are changed?

Haha one of the examples has this text:

    By reading this sentence, you hereby agree to all terms and conditions
    presented by voussoir.net, including but not limited to terms which entitle
    voussoir.net to a fraction not less than forty (40) percent (%) of your

Yes this is what they mean. I've use this setup in the past when for example I wanted to use different SSH keys for bitbucket, gitlab and github for example.

It works even for same hostname like I did here - https://github.com/hashhar/dotfiles-tmp/blob/master/ssh/.ssh...

Parent meant probably meant that there's no securities fraud since no securities are involved as it's not a traded company.

I found https://www.kangaroohanger.com/ to be a more practical and viable "actually better" clothes hanger.

Well, most of what he is saying are actually easily reproducible macOS quirks.

- Windows disappear, become inaccessible after moving between monitors, even though it still open and active according to doc/task list.

This indeed happens relatively often if you have multiple monitors and switch between them for any reason. e.g. in my case I have two machines and two monitors, sometimes I switch the primary monitor to a specific machine and this almost always fucks up macOS. Solution is to disconnect and reconnect the monitor.

- Why can't I move a window to a monitor/workspace that has a maximized window? Like, you can do it by un-maximizing the window in question, moving the other window over and then re-maximizing the window again. But why is this nonsense needed? What problem could this restriction possibly be solving?

A lot of people who use macOS agree that the fullscreen window thing is needless and makes for quirky behaviour.

- Dock constantly breaks/becomes inaccessible. This is a known problem for at least 5+ years - the solution is to manually kill and restart the process???

- Text cursor/caret randomly disappears when editing text, so you can't see where the cursor is, and you can't fix this unless you restart the app (happens to pretty much all apps).

Yep, happens quite frequently to multiple people I know and in multiple apps.

- Bad defaults in terms of keypress repeat times and rate. No apparent way to change this from settings - need to run commands and re-login to test new behaviour.

Indeed this is very painful for people who are non-developers and are used to be able to have higher repeat rates.

This was mentioned earlier in the thread if someone wants to follow the source.

some commands take remote branches as `origin mybranch`

That isn't a single argument, that's two arguments. If you look at docs for some commands which accept `origin mybranch`, git fetch for example, it says the first argument is `<repository>` which can either be a URL or a remote name. In your example it's a remote called `origin`. The 2nd argument is then a `<refspec>` which is a bit complex - it specifies what to fetch and where to fetch it. So in your example `mybranch` is shorthand for `mybranch:mybranch` (i.e. fetch `mybranch` from `origin` and update local `mybranch`). You can even do `git fetch origin mybranch:mybranch-local` which would fetch `mybranch` from `origin` and update `mybranch-local` with it.

In Kafka the "queue" is dumb, it doesn't lose messages (it's an append only durable log) nor does it resend anything unless the consumer requests it.
