- I am ultra productive or...

- I am procrastinating the entire day

- It's more difficult than expected; even narrow focussed Ai powered bots have huge difficulties to understand

- It's just another channel for existing products/business

- Often 'AI' means a chat based interface with a well defined command set like a CLI we all know

So, is it still wise to write AI-powered on a pitch deck?

Use React together with Redux, Webpack and Immutable (my suggestion).

There was another public thing on Facebook (Q&A town hall Berlin) where the German questioners had a) so-so questions b) some really, really bad English skills and c) just felt like backwoodsmen, all paired by Facebook's European head who is also German and must be in love with Zuck (he interviewed Zuck few times on the trip and asked odd questions—why does an FB employee interview Zuck??). Absolutely nothing against Germans, nice people, but especially this town hall speak was a bit embarrassing and gave a slightly wrong picture of Germans.

EDIT: Hey downvoters, please read my piece again, it's NOT against any nationality—it rather criticizes how the interviewers/questioners were chosen which might give a not representative picture.

The '1/15th of the size' sounds fantastic—I installed Cygwin on a cheaper Windows notebook yesterday and it took 45 minutes (I could have installed a VM + an Linux image in the same time).

Since then I was fascinated by devices with keyboards.

I found a commercial where you can see the typeball in action including slow motion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNUEUth7qjc

I don't care where I can find free WiFi. Nowadays, every damn coffee shop, hotel or mall has free Wifi—I care about fast and free WiFi with speedy up- & downloads and low latency. Well executed implementation though.

EDIT: Why the downvote?

While Nxweb looks very promising, my first question would be 'Why should I use it over eg Nginx?' It would be helpful to have some direct comparison to other servers on the landing page.

EDIT: Ok, there is a link to some odd benchmarks and it includes performance comparisons to Nginx and others which are not understandable (Nginx 141 req/s and Nxweb 200 / 121 req/s while it's not clear when 200 and when 121); moreover they compare it to Mongoose which is an ORM/ODM

I'm still mind blown every single day about the Node community—for me it's the fastest evolving dev ecosystem which is at the same time high performant and robust.

Mozilla is focussing on its core competency. No mobile OS, no identity built in the browser, no distractions—no, it's just about the browser and how to make it better. What this guy showed is just impressive, well done and please more of such achievements.

so somebody but not me, right?

> Not at the moment, though we're looking at more locations as we continue to expand Stripe Atlas

So, it would be Delaware as the administration location, right? (which I would prefer)

>> - I Striped stated as the registrant in the Delaware corp database? > Nope.

So the 3rd party registry would appear there, right?

And it's correct that the customer doesn't have to visit the states for opening the bank account?

I am fine with most of them being prohibited but at some points it's getting quite restricted:

1. Virtual currency that can be monetized, re-sold or converted to physical or digital products or services or otherwise exit the virtual world

4. Sexually-oriented or pornographic products or services

9. Engaging in deceptive marketing practices (here: who decides what is 'deceptive')

14. Age verification

15. Age restricted products or services (which are the most products/services)

50. Centralized travel reservation services or travel clubs

Points I am missing/not seeing:

- Can I decide about the administration location (eg also Delaware or does it have to be my actual location)?

- Can I get some virtual office with address, mail forwarding, etc, sometimes offered by registry?

- Is Stripe a full state approved registry or do they use 3rd party registries? What are the ongoing costs (there can be significant differences)?

- How many people are in customer support?

- Is Stripe stated as the registrant in the Delaware corp database?

The only advantage I've seen is that Stripe is opening the bank account for you and it seems you do not have to visit the States but other than that I am not sure if going all-in with one entity (Stripe) is a bit too risky.

And if looking at dedicated registries there 3-5x more information on their websites—this is not a clear indicator for quality of service but since this is not Stripe's core competency it's something I'd be a bit cautious. But still something Atlas can catch-up.

Also the mobile app is extremely well done (can create color schemes from picture or live from the camera)

But looking deeper it's getting harder and harder to justify Office:

For presentations I prefer Keynote. It's not perfect but still better. Spreadsheet I use Google Sheets, inferior to Excel but good enough and live collaborating is unbeaten and this is my number one requirement.

Word is the only one where is no substitute for. Google Docs doesn't have paragraph numbering and misses a review mode which is super important when negotiating contracts.

So, Word is Office's last lock-in.

This post looks great offering awesome pics and an interesting topic but I am too ADD to read it (and wondering if it's worth the time).

StackOverflow has its flaws but compared to the competition it's heaven. Moreover, when reading OP's 'Computer systems are designed to be figured out from their manuals or APIs' I stop reading. Sometimes systems are so new there isn't a manual yet (eg when Node started) or you just deal with complex matters where multiple systems are interweaved.

I learned tons of stuff on SO I would have never figured out myself. Also, how comments and answers are conceptually and visually separated is just very smart and the pain point of every other Q&A site.

As written in another post: I started one month ago and then I was frequently meditating with Headspace (which is awesome btw).

While meditation helped me to go through hard times it never solved the underlying problem. It's like taking painkillers without addressing the real cause. I solved the real underlying problem few days ago and I feel like god again.

The biggest problem around meditation is that most are not able to clearly express what meditation is really doing with you.

I didn't do that shit for 20 minutes to be now on Facebook—and closed the tab.
