I'd argue almost the opposite: America's governing system (and the political culture of rejecting hereditary rule) is a big part of why it became so successful. There's arguably a straight line from the Commonwealth's gr

First I've heard of this, but they seem to be a young, smart and energetic team on a great trajectory. The atproto choice is interesting, fits their social-minded goal.

Extremely excited for this as a tmux and Ghostty user. Given the team, I know a great deal of care will be taken in building this product.

Not only is Burmese food in Myanmar far better, but even the small, modest restaurants bring out a whole spread of complimentary small dishes (pickles, salads, crunchy snacks, all kinds of delicious little sides) before the main meal. It&#x

It's fantastic as a travel/digital nomad tool. It enables me to use a large widescreen display and work efficiently from anywhere in the world.

You're exaggerating the significance of Canadians in US tourism statistics. NY and MA have larger populations than ON and QC, Canada's two largest provinces. Therefore, even "loads" is a relatively small number.

I own one, but it lacks apps. Apple urgently needs to incentivize developers to create apps for the platform, and not just repackaged iPad apps. We should have immersive games and experiences. In fact, even the intro immersive experience bu

It's also the same dude who brought us beloved products in Apple's lineup. It's almost a meme at this point to say that Jony Ive's genius needs a containing force like Steve Jobs. Perhaps Sam Altman can fill that role.

The batching concept is a cool idea and could be useful in the right context. That said, this feels like a JavaScript engineer's take on Go. Abstractions like Map and ForEach don't align with Go's emphasis on simplicity and e

This is such a refreshing perspective! I've always wondered if there's room for craftsmen to build quality products for smaller groups. Your focus on simple, well-designed software really resonates with me. Thanks for showing us a

I started my career with JavaScript and Node.js, but over time I've grown to dislike its design flaws and dynamic nature. If JavaScript had Dart's strengths, I might still be using it; instead, I've moved on to languages I fi

I have the Studio Display and personally find the larger and uniform bezel gives it a premium esthetic and unique look. A smaller bezel would inevitably draw comparison with cheaper monitors. It seems like an intentional design decision tha

The billions in agricultural subsidies, strict regulations, and non-tariff barriers that make it difficult for non-EU companies to compete suggest otherwise to me.

Actually, a lot of these pejoratives are from the 19th century. By the 17th century, the word "Dutch" had begun to solidify its meaning around the Netherlands. This mainly stems from a time when tensions between the British and Du

Excellent! I had originally planned to give it a quick glance, but I was so captivated, I had to see it through the end. For those aspiring to become creative developers, could you share any tips on which areas they should focus on?

On the subject of Google nagware, the most egregious one to me is trying to use Google on iOS safari without logging in. It repeatedly runs a popup that covers >65% of the screen asking you to sign in.

Not trying to be dismissive of Mistral, but I bet that's a large driving force behind the effort. Usually I'd prefer to focus on the technical aspects, but with the undeniable geopolitical impact of technology/AI, I think it

The uncertainty you pointed out does seem to explain the downvotes I received. For me personally, communication is arduous. I struggle daily to articulate what I want to say in a logical and efficient manner, let alone in a graceful or arti

The first two are seemingly of questionable utility, but the 3rd feature (Help me write) is actually quite interesting. As of late, most of my public written responses (bar HN) have had some sort of collaboration with ChatGPT, and I've

> The benefit to our mid size cities is great This is a great point! I like the fact that the US is more decentralized and isn't dominated by a single large city. Germany is similar in this regard. I understand the appeal of NYC, es

That's assuming the company still has motivation to continue and improve. I can only imagine there's a lingering feeling of dejection at Figma right now.

Buffalo, NY - Not a usual place for a SWE in the US to end up, but I picked it for the culture, climate and COL. I'm thankful for remote work to make this choice possible. Pros: Snow. Greenery. Great Lakes. Climate change safety. Rust-
