How about our software engineering jobs, which will now entail managing a team of agents?

currently working on phonetonote and thinking about data interoperability in tools for thought.
previously: compass, contactually, ventureboard.
full stack engineer, writing mostly typescript and ruby.

plus one, I would love to configure a folder of markdown/txt(+ eventually images and pdfs) files that this can have access to. Ideally it could RAG over them in a sensible way. Would love to help support this!
touchscreens don't have to be small. one of the only pie menus I can really think of in the wild is Adobe Illustrator on iPad, which is relatively interesting because its an "ipad first" app of sorts. its separate than their desktop apps, and was designed for the larger tablets, not a small phone.
the menu itself is pretty good, especially with the Apple Pencil, which you'd be using to draw on the iPad. Image editing/3d modeling software tends to need a lot of UI, and I think it makes sense for the most part. these tools are hopefully used by everyone. that means more sporadic use — if I'm only opening your app a couple times a week for a couple minutes, I probably won't remember the keybaord shortcuts. not to mention people who are unfamiliar or don't use keyboard shortcuts at all. anyways, bit of a rant since it doesn't answer your original question, but we should consider how to make our computers computable by all users.
I wandered into the comments to find or write the correct "before times" bit, and I think this covers everything I would've mentioned.
I'll add that looking back, EXT seemed to be a bit ahead of its time. Its data/table view rivals AG Grid [0] of today. If we could've just standardized on a table view by now, but alas.
AG Grid - [Ag Grid, agnostic JS table framework](https://www.ag-grid.com/)
I agree! I'm the creator of phonetonote [1], which tries to integrate with different tools for thought. I just started a `tft-interop` repo [2] with similar goals. We're just getting started thinking through how to make the TFT structures (edn mostly) more interoperable. I'm not personally an org-mode user, but agree it could be a good format to parse these trees in and out of. I've mostly been thinking about OPML so far. Feel free to hop into the discussions where we're sorting through these ideas — https://github.com/phonetonote/tft-interop/discussions/2

thanks, "TB->PCIe expander chassis" wasn't on my radar at all! I'm holding out that apple will release something better than the Studio Display in the next 6-9 months and make some of this a bit easier.
I think the Dell 8k 32" is pretty close to what you want — https://www.dell.com/en-us/work/shop/dell-ultrasharp-32-8k-m.... It's certainly not cheap!
edit: in case anyone knows, I see this monitor "requires two DisplayPorts" for full 8k. Does anyone know if I can plug two display ports into a docking station, and one cord out of the docking station into my 14" m1 mbp? Ideally this would also charge the mbp. Is this possible? If I were to buy such an expensive monitor, I really only want one cord.
I tried using are.na and it just didn't stick for whatever reason. Kinopio on the other hand, I wanted to use it more and more once I started. Just suited my brain better I suppose.
`Baas` as a term might be dead, but `JAMStack`, which Netlify invented [0] is alive and perhaps thriving -- it's a bit hard to say. Maybe not the same exact concept, but it seems similar.
I'm afraid this won't be useful in the real world. API consumers who continue to use legacy endpoints after being told not to are unlikely to update their code to listen to a new HTTP header. This strikes me as a great idea in theory, but unlikely to be useful to websites actually looking to deprecate endpoints.
Very much so. Especially if it pulled in other tangental data such as weather at the time and location of the game.
Yep. The one closest to where I work is in a great spot in downtown DC, ironically enough half a block from Bezos owned Washington Post headquarters.
The one closest to where I live is in the prime shopping center adjacent to University of Maryland.
There's seemingly enough in good locations to cherry pick them out.
I think the news is that it was sent to Arrington of all people. Plus the "Go TechCrunch" bit.
Not sure if they're better, but for rails, I use:
MiniProfiler- https://github.com/MiniProfiler/rack-mini-profiler- from the Railscast[0]- "MiniProfiler allows you to see the speed of a request conveniently on the page. It also shows the SQL queries performed and allows you to profile a specific block of code."
Bullet- https://github.com/flyerhzm/bullet- from the Railscast[1]- "Bullet will notify you of database queries that can potentially be improved through eager loading or counter cache column. A variety of notification alerts are supported."
Google's got it cached pretty well- http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:Mys4njw....
But if someone just wants to customize their text editor, $('#element').hide();, or something not orders of magnitude more complex, would actually be useful.
IHOP is using it too, though it doesn't indicate what kind of deal they have with Snapchat- https://twitter.com/IHOP/status/416298001079226368
No. This is a lie. Let's compare their original email [0] to their apology. While we're at it, let's look at their logical fallacies.
For example, compare Rap Genius’ (RG's) annotated edition of Justin Bieber's new hit single "Heartbreaker" – which dozens of Bieber fans have annotated with details of his break up with Selena Gomez – to AZLyrics’ version of the same
This is a false clause [1]. Nobody is doubting RG's content is superior. If anything, better content would be a reason not to engage in blackhat SEO. Excessive link exchanges ("Link to me and I'll link to you") or partner pages exclusively for the sake of cross-linking
We don’t do this.
That is, links shared on Twitter may give temporary traffic to fan sites, but not long-term link juice.
Yet, in your email to bloggers, you promised to get you MASSIVE traffic
Well which one is it, temporary traffic or massive traffic? This is a direct contradiction. With limited tools (Open Site Explorer), we found some suspicious backlinks to some of our competitors:
Again, lyrics sites or shady. They also don't raise VC money from Andreessen Horowitz. You'll be held to a higher standard, and rightfully so, if you're truly hoping to become more than a lyrics site. This is bandwagon fallacy [2].[0] http://jmarbach.com/rapgenius-growth-hack-exposed
I get the whole eat your own dog food thing, but having to click twice to get to the actual career page can't be good for conversion.
This is absolutely incredible! If I were going to an open hackathon this weekend, this on top of Firebase seems like such a great place to start.
One small typo, if the Firebase team is reading, "College Park, MA" should be "College Park, MD" (Maryland, not Massachusetts)
I think the web would be a better place if you encouraged beginners to start with the HTTP block, rather than HTML.

Does the market need a cheaper printer, or a better one?
Isn't that the point of crowd funding? Commenters on Hacker News don't decide what the market needs, but rather the market itself does.
Corbett's talks on ecosystem thinking are great too- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keI1D31bXvQ. It looks like a full compilation of his videos can be found at http://pinterest.com/corbett3000/videos-of-peter-corbett/.
Curious how well known he is outside of Washington DC. Any insight?
That seems to be the goal of the Universal ie6 [0] project, albiet for ie6!
That was step two.
Seems like a good idea to add outside of meteor projects too. Maybe an extension for Chrome dev tools that lists global variables loaded per page?
Also troubling is their logo links to localhost:3000. Why would you hard link that in the first place?
Right click -> Inspect Element -> click Console (right most tab) -> paste code and press return.
It would be kind of hard to call it an "Open Graph" if it were that closed.
