Why? Those are completely different skillsets

Javascript from 30 years ago, still works today.

I went to that exact spot a while ago, here is my photo: https://www.flickr.com/photos/johnniewalker/7870318918

Little known fact... this images are actually backed by Flickr.com and in there you get to download the original size vs "large" which seems to only be available on the nasa.gov site

Just search in flickr for the image id and you will get the relevant image in Flickr. e.g. https://flickr.com/photos/nasa2explore/55208327975

I use the built in accessibility "Color Filters" in Mac with the Menu Bar shortcut to toggle it on/off

The logo in the hoodie is what made me realized it was old

There are still companies asking for # of lines of code written https://x.com/tregoning/status/1286329086176976896

Seems very cool but all of the photos and videos I could find is about how to build it not the most important thing.. how good it is as an actual telescope how does the moon/stars etc look though it

I have a brand new still shrink-wrapped box of Windows 1.0.0 My local museum (https://computerhistory.org) has one on loan, this remind me to go there and offer them mine

It would be nice if the app would allow us to save templates (no need to get fancy just via URL params e.g. for the above it would be something like:`?sections=title&Desc,installation,runLocally,Support,Authors,Ack,usageExamples`

That way we could just generate a 'template' that we can share/save etc

It's surprising how Google have shot themselves in the foot with their short term thinking. Nobody trust them for anything that involves long term support on any new services/products(and several already existing products).

I have professionally worked using both Lit & React for several years.

I disagree with you here. (I do not work at Google nor have worked there, but I do work in FANG for ~10 years) whilst sadly it's true that React has become the de-facto standard. I feel like is akin to the Betamax vs VHS story (the best format did not win, but the most popular did).

* The Shadow DOM was not slammed and is no longer a proposal. It's part of the standard and is supported by every browser. Shadow DOM solves one of the most common issues in web development today without using any hacks (which is what every other framework that does not support shadow DOM needs to do, to make sure CSS does not leak between components), not only it solves the CSS leak issue but also improves rendering time because it's easier for the browser engine to compute styles, since they are scoped.

* Lit has nothing to do with NodeJS, is a front-end framework, the fact that NodeJS is "banned" a Google has nothing to do with this.

* Why would I use this? (over React/Vue) well, for starters the code generated by Lit is significantly smaller (as a result faster more performant applications) than the React/Vue/etc counterparts mostly because it leans on standards and does not try to re-invent the stack like React does and does not need a significant runtime (e.g. virtual DOM/diffing/etc) but most importantly when you use it you are embracing the web, you are not in an uncanny valley of leaky abstractions (e.g. useRef, useState, etc) that try (unsuccessfully) to shield you how the web/browsers/css/js works.

React has one clear benefit over Lit, and that is that almost every developer understand it, and that every library is compatible with it and is easier to find engineers to code in React, barrier of entry is smaller, etc.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Yeah mine one died by itself (one day was working, next just didn't turn on anymore)

Still remember when iPads used this clock face. I wish that was still the case.

<meme>Why not both?</meme>

"Yeah. RISC is good" .... https://twitter.com/Hackers_bot/status/1547829853231075331

Looks like it's coming from the website:

"There is also a Desktop Based version in development which offers a much wider range of tools, deeper analysis and extras such as schematic views and PCB layouts"

If somebody with this app feels charitable, could they please try it on the page below and perhaps share the output via a gist or something?

https://www.warp.dev ("Download Now" or "Watch Demo" button)

There is no trial period, so it is hard to evaluate this tool. This is a really complex button, multiple SVGs, etc, so it might produce some insight into how capable the tool is.

Looks like the video/page are now gone: Here is the link (while it last) to the video for those who missed it:

Surprised nobody has mentioned the main advantages of web-based apps:

* Collaboration (including real-time collaboration)

* Ease (or more like lack of it) installation process

* Always up to date

If I understand this correctly:

(Gmail’s API lockdown will kill some third-party app access, starting July 15) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20300008

I think their startup will stop working soon, given that they only support GMail.

Doesn't this mean that SuperHuman is screwed?
