I would guess that it would be because Notion is mostly designed to be used as a personal note-taking/todo/trello app (which it's great at!)
Though it's possible to "publish" or share your notes it doesn't look like a well designed use of the platform.

That's great! Do you have an enclosure design for the home consoles, perhaps a physical pico-8 style enclosure?

I'm also in the same boat as SmellyGeekBoy, and can attest the same. With the Oneplus rom I saw maybe 1.5 days of battery, with Lineage I often see 2-3 days.
This is completely anecdotal however, and it's likely that the reduced battery is down to having installed different/fewer apps on Lineage.

Switching to Firefox Focus [1] is probably a better solution -- it's Webkit/Blink under the hood, but blocks ads/trackers and doesn't maintain a browser history.
Re:Why I Hate Slack and You Should Too

Sounds like more of a complaint of informal instant messaging in general, rather than a problem specifically attributed to Slack.
Slack has it's problems, but it also has it's place.
For the Slack teams I'm a member of, we've got rules about using @channel and @here, and anybody that uses either is usually shamed to some extent if they do so.
For the complaint about the use of Electron (and all of that overhead), it's trivial for a Slack team to enable the IRC gateway (in /admin/settings#gateways) and connect through your preferred IRC client.

Re:Show HN: Web Bluetooth
on Monday December 12, 2016 @05:58AM (#13157202)
It's pretty powerful stuff, though I'm sort of leaning towards the idea of "how much is too much in the web browser?".
I've been playing with some Web Bluetooth enabled things lately, namely the "Puck.js"[1] piece of Espruino[2] hardware and it's Web Bluetooth browser-based IDE[3].
The browser-based controls for device discovery (in Chrome at-least) are quite nice/intuitive.

I had a go at rewriting this to use requestAnimationFrame, and provide more instruments and some random/clear buttons: https://blog.omgmog.net/beatmaker/
Including whitespace it's 102 lines: https://github.com/omgmog/beatmaker/blob/master/js/index.js
An interesting thing, after a short while the browser unloads the page (Chrome on Mac OS) -- probably due to memory usage, which I think this is down to creating a new Audio element each time, rather than initialising them once and then triggering .play() when needed.
update:
Alright I'm using AudioContext now rather than `new Audio`, seems to be performing a lot better. This puts us at about 144 lines.

Re:Ask HN: Tool to post new referrers from Google Analytics to Slack?
on Friday February 27, 2015 @11:22AM (#9119640)
The way I'd approach this would be something like this:
- Set up a cron job to check the real-time API for changes to your referrers
- when a new referrer is detected, talk to Slack via their WebHooks integration service
You could use Google's App Engine (and Scheduled Tasks with Cron for Python) for the cron job, https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/config/cron
Read more about the WebHooks integration service here: https://slack.com/services/new/incoming-webhook

So much duplicate properties, this could really be simplified!
Also inconsistency, sometimes using vendor prefixes, sometimes not, smells of copy/paste coding.
