I've been using Airplane.dev since their first post on HN, and I was repeatedly delighted with the way the product "just worked", I thought they made great choices about code vs. config vs. admin, and their feature development velocity was superb.
I was ready to really jump in and move beyond simple internal tools to build complex, mission critical internal systems in airplane.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I would love to leverage the powerful Airtable UI, but their scripting vs. custom extension offerings have always felt underpowered and needlessly complex, respectively.
And the "Learn more" link inside the Your Design Assistant section doesn't point anywhere.
I once attended a talk by a neuroscientist at UCSF, Adam Gazzaley, that really helped me see what the future of medicine could look like if we appreciated the power of experience, and more importantly if we could measure and then alter said experience in a realtime closed-loop system. My takeaway was that one day we might think of blasting our synapses with SSRIs or Adderall similarly to civil war era surgeons...the bone saw does prevent gangrene, but in a such an inefficient way.
^^^ this killed me. i'm sure everyone who has ever interacted with a SOAP api feels the same. god bless this tiny kitten/person/hacktivist, the world needs more of this energy.
Five years ago I inherited a project that had four repos sharing a Git submodule.
Now I tell people to never use Git submodules.
Is Ian Fleming saying that he was sexually abused as a child?
One thing that's preventing me from dumping in a bunch of action items is that I can't figure out a way of creating tasks via the keyboard. Is this possible?
As it stands you just get dumped into the builder with no guidance whatsoever. I wanted to evaluate the tool, but there's no way I could dedicate that kind of time to something I didn't know existed 5 minutes ago without even knowing what it's capable of building.
Surely you have made something complex and impressive with it, right?
A couple weeks ago I compared it head to head against starbucks Via while backpacking.
Sudden Coffee totally blew Starbucks Via away. It's about as much better than Via as Via is compared to the horrible Nestle stuff.
It's not going to replace my daily pourover, but for future camping trips I'll be drinking Sudden. For this use-case, the subscription model is a pain. I'd prefer to just buy two or three cases to have a supply and give some out to my outdoor friends/family.
Remember HN is the sum of it's parts. Be a postitive part.
1. I'd prefer to see monthly pricing.
2. I found the scroll behavior to be quite jarring.
Good luck.
I strongly believe that automating the repetitive and mindless aspects of the QA process is the crucial step to shifting their attitude. Automated UI tests can give everyone confidence within minutes that core functionality has not regressed. This allows the QA team to dive into a product or feature in a creative way and do their best to find the rough edges and help make the product better.
I have a consulting practice exclusively dedicated to helping startups with this very process: http://structurehq.com
Has either party confirmed this? I'm skeptical.
Price gouging is when you use a monopolisitic position to charge an unreasonably high amount.
The value for the poster is clear; what is the value for the voter?
The term you are looking for is a "CMS". Good luck.
Is there an app with traction that helps people like us find fellow hackers to collaborate with. If not, sounds like an idea right there. Want to help build it?
My Temporary Fix: revert to the old school GMail, and select the theme "Preview (dense)".
1. Are you performing split testing on major components of your landing page?
"Increase your brownie points!" strikes me as awkward and mathematical (makes me think $browniePoints++). Ask a few friends in your target market to help you brainstorm.
2. I almost missed the arrows to see more products per category. Make them more prominent and switch the circles in the top right for page numbers.
To try to return the favor: on your about page, you link to /karma.html, instead of /karma.
