The main difference is the data structure and the intent of the export. Facebook's tool is built for data compliance and local offline viewing, not web portability. If you open that Facebook zip file, the HTML version is just a massiv

But it is portable. It is essentially markdown files. You can download your repo, compile the Jekyll to static pages and publish them anywhere. When you publish to Facebook, WordPress etc you can't easily get your stuff out. You will h

I agree with the point that big companies have persuaded people that only they can offer ease of publishing content. most of my friends publish on Facebook, X, Instagram etc. I have tried to get them to publish markdown sites using GitHub p

I have tried standing desks, but not for burning calories like the article suggests. It was more for fixing my posture. But standing and working made my lean and support myself with my hands. The best solution I like now is a knee stool. It

This is pretty well made. The progression is good and there are no distractions. And best part it doesn't force you to create an account.

The issue is there is no incentive for the person leaving to make these handover docs and videos. They will just say the bare minimum and complete the task.

Correct. Which is why hydroponically grown produced focuses on low shelf life items like salad greens. And in countries like India where quick commerce is taking off (Zepto, Blinkit, BB Now etc.) it is helpful for the companies to source fr

CEA (Controlled Environment Agriculture) is not bad. When over-engineered and quickly expanded without working on unit economics it might be a bad idea. Traditional farming is not viable near the place of consumption. It needs a lot of land

I wish there was a video of this in that article. The reading was very descriptive, but would have loved to see the video of the octopus playing with the bottle.

I play short time controls like blitz in lichess. But for rapid I prefer chess.com as lichess has too much cheating. I find lichess UI/UX better and faster than Chess.com.

I think getting clean tables/ETLs is a big blocker for move fast and break things. I would be more interested in actually github copilot style sql IDE (like datagrip etc.), which has access to all the queries written by all the people

All these products that pitch about using AI to find insights from your data always end up looking pretty in demos and fall short in reality. This is not because the product is bad, but because there is enormous amount of nuance in DB/

This is so true in this world of A/B testing everything. When A/B tests are poorly designed and results are interpreted for a short time frame, in my experience it always leads to poor decisions which impact long term.

That is an interesting way of looking at it. Kind of makes sense considering unlike western units, 100k in Hindi is "ek lakh". And in India, the numbers are expressed as xx,xx,xx,xxx. So 100 is sau (hundred), 1,000 is hazar (tho

It is interesting how many languages originating in different parts of the world all somehow figured to have a base and name the numbers by base. For instance if you know 1 to 9. And then you know 10, 20, 30, 40... 90. And then 100, 200, 30
