What do you mean the "vagrant moment"?
It would be great to set limits on how much leave is scheduled at once or per quarter. My company says you should ask a manager if you book more than 25% of leave per quarter, so it would be good to know the max I can book without having to ask for permission.

I mean it is a quote from a guest on the Tim Ferriss podcast. Not exactly a font of anything other than received wisdom and LinkedIn platitudes.

Amazing and terrible! Thanks for the clear answer.

Sounds like you were on the team: If so, thanks for your contribution!

I was wondering this today: why did they launch on Christmas? Were there conditions which made it unavoidable?

It doesn't. My point is that one can critique something whilst using it and not undermine their point.

Feels like this is not really a constructive critique of OPS argument. Indeed, it is merely them ensuring they can gain reach on the platforms they are critiquing, as opposed to screaming into the void as a Web 1.0 holdout.

I really hope you're kidding.
Re:Morashon on Tuesday September 07, 2021 @04:36AM (#28442428)
Last commit to the Github was 9 years ago. Very weird, but stuff like this is the kind of outsider art that makes the world big and rich.

Seems like the name, Morashon, is the pseudonym for the author, which is also a strange twist. I wonder if it's an anagram of Rashomon.

Why is webflow better for that use case? Genuinely interested, have avoided using it until now.

Unsubscribe should definitely be part of this. Or at least a way to stop the emails from sending after a user has unsubbed, otherwise we enter dodgy GDPR complaint territory. Maybe a dealbreaker even. Cool product otherwise! Will keep an eye out for a chance to try it.

We use Neue Haas Grotesk for our design system. and I never knew it had such a history behind it. TIL! Don't know how to say this articulately but I've always thought of it as Helvetica's beatnik cousin.

Not exactly -- his dad had died, and he was posting pages of his diary on a seperate blog to his, I think. His dad ( I think it was a father-son relationship) was a retired engineer, maybe something academic too. Thanks for the lead.

This is kind of crazy but I'm looking for this fascinating blog I found ages ago via HN. It was someone who was posting their father's diary online, as a blog -- he was an engineer and kept a diary, which was full of fascinating minutiae. Does that ring any bells for anyone? No worries if not, I'm finding this blog hook or by crook.
