Any openly available tool can be used by anyone for any purpose. The idea that we can pick and choose is ridiculous, and with the exception of rare cases, avoidance of building generally useful tools for the chance that bad actors will also use them is a losing proposition.
It's been years since I've used it. Was a pretty technically sophisticated startup back in the day. Has been since acquired so not surprised it has decayed.
I love Michael Fogleman for graphics: https://github.com/fogleman/Craft
If you don't want to go through thousand page textbooks on financial accounting, managerial accounting, and corporate finance, I recommend the following two short books to everyone:
1. Financial Statements, Thomas Ittelson - https://www.amazon.com/Financial-Statements-Rev-Thomas-Ittel...
2. Financial Intelligence, Karen Berman - https://www.amazon.com/Financial-Intelligence-Revised-Manage...
I've also found this website useful: https://www.accountingcoach.com/
I assume you came to this conclusion after thoroughly reviewing their internal metrics and financial statements?
Totally agree. The one with Jon Rubinstein [0] was illuminating in a way none of the biographies have been.

Thanks for sharing.
Also, PSA: Get tested for any sleep disorders and hormone issues. Affects every aspect of your health and is massively under-diagnosed (80-90%)
This sounds interesting, could you share any more of your project? I want to get back into c/c++ dev, the modern libraries look great!
This has always been a shit argument. Injustice has to be fixed across the board, otherwise it's a tax on just the honest/moral people.
Just breathed new life into my 2013 15" by replacing the thermal paste. Runs much cooler/quieter now.
"Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid." - Einstein, maybe
I suspect the most practical way to reform our institutions is through increased competition in governance, just like we "fix" stagnant institutions in the private sector. We already have this baked into our constitution: States rights and their ability to pass amendments. There's a movement happening around this. [0]
Justice Brandeis said it best: "state may, if its citizens choose, serve as a laboratory; and try novel social and economic experiments without risk to the rest of the country." [1]
Imagine if States could try different healthcare systems, or basic income, etc. Citizens would be able to vote with their feet and move to the best systems. This should be a bipartisan movement.

My advice, like with anything, is to learn the fundamentals first. In this case, that's CSS and its box model [0]. You don't need to learn every nook, cranny, and idiosyncrasy of CSS, but enough to know what's going on in higher level abstractions. I would just start with an empty html file and play with layouts devoid of any JS. Beware of outdated html/css "tutorials" online and stick to updated resources like Mozilla's MDN. Once you get the hang out modern layout models like flexbox and grid, I would recommend using a 'functional' css library like tailwind [1].

Are people here listed with consent? Asking because there's a "remove my data" input. That said, I appreciate the intent behind this.
CPAPs aerosolize on exhale, they aren't closed loop like hospital ventilators. It's not about cleaning just the machine but decontaminating the whole room.
Recent research (as in the last 10 years) seems to suggest that current RDI is at least an order of magnitude lower than it should be. I have no medical background, but anecdotally, it has helped my sleep a lot. I'm generally a supplement skeptic, but currently taking 6k IU a day.
I agree with the posts saying most are of little to no value, maybe even negative considering anxiety from monitoring. I think a decent proxy for obstructions is a good pulse oximeter.
I would also recommend getting your vitamin D levels checked. The normal range is far below what you should be at from my experience. 60-80ng/ml is an ideal range ("normal" from my lab is anywhere from 30-100) from what I've read. Can start supplementing and seeing if it helps.
MIT isn't ivy league and probably the least 'about signaling' school in the US...
Anyone know what the management fees are on a microfund?
I think a lot of people are missing the point of the article. It's not anti-feature. It's against building features that have no measurable impact to the real goals of any business: better product for the customer AND therefore more revenue.
The problem with the Pyramids analogy is that the Pyramid was the goal. In software companies, features aren't the goal. Better products for customers are. The right features are the means to the end, everything else is a waste of time and an illusion of progress.
I'm newish to Clojure(Script) and interested in learning the stack you're using. Mind adding some setup instructions to the readme? Thanks!
Am I missing something? This already exists in Google Docs. Much easier to implement when the doc is database-backed (recording every keystroke for OT) vs file-based.
Am interested in learning more but your contact info is twitter without DMs open (have to be mutually following). Mind opening DMs or posting your email to the about field on HN? Thanks!
Agreed, which is why I think going to version controlled, working UI code ASAP is key. Also my views are for super early UI design and development. For a mature UI like existing Uber or Airbnb app where larger teams (more than a couple people) are designing each little piece, makes sense to have more steps in the process and tooling like Figma to support it.
Reading the book Creative Selection [1], by an early iPhone software engineer describing the development of the software keyboard, cemented my existing belief in working demos over wireframes.
A lot of what makes some UI great over others is little details in interaction design (subtle animations), color choices, typography, and live content that is very difficult to replicate in wireframes. Users have an emotional response to UI and that's what you want to "measure". Next to impossible to do that with static wireframes. I think all great UI designers should be able to code their designs, gone are the days of separate photoshop/indesign -> code steps, at least until the UI matures.
That said, wireframes are a great tool during product ideation and design. I like paper+pencil as a wire framing tool, and then go straight to working UI.

This is "re"branding done right. Building on accumulated brand recognition instead of dumping it for something trendy or edgy. One of the worst recent redesigns is Dropbox. I still don't understand what their ugly art deco color scheme is all about: https://www.creativebloq.com/news/dropbox-redesign-is-a-fant...
