    Very nice landing page, but no screen shots? What does it look like? Do I have to install it and hope I make it through the wait list to find out? Understand that you are excited, …

    I think the lack of a dominant JavaScript domain model syntax has limited the availability of admin tools like django-admin. Maybe something driven by OpenAPI/Swagger model definit…

    One question I have about this approach: if I temporarily include a security token in one of my files, will that get included in the temporary commits? And if so, how can I make su…

    One possible suggestion is a one-time payment option. In a couple of my projects I have daily/weekly/monthly plans that allow people to pay up, use the features and then go away wi…

    It is a DSL for additional logic that can be: - Stored in your existing data store (assuming your data store can store a string) - Executed without eval() or any other potentially …

    Of note here: Robinhood recently (last month) settled charges that they actually weren't seeking best execution. https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2020-321

    Actually, you can: https://github.com/jitsi/jigasi Needs some setup, but if you are using Jitsi that seems reasonable

    I really like it! Have you given any thought to server-side execution? One of the things I think is missing from Jupyter is a clean, standard way of doing timed execution of a note…

    There's a personal taste element: I agree with you that certain WaveNet voices sound better (I've actually used them for video narration with some success). The breathing caught me…

    As an aside: I've been reading the AWS blog posts from Jeff Barr, but ignoring the Amazon Polly audio conversions. I actually listened to it today, and not only is it not terrible,…

    The article talks about "constitutional rights": hence the US constitution link. You may not be in the US: in which case, you're right, you shouldn't care. The usual counter exampl…

    You can say whatever you want: you should also expect to take heat from non-like minded people. At some point the free speech concept transitioned to "I should be able to say whate…

    I'll echo this: 30% is terrible, till you consider the alternatives. Before the app store it was 3 month lead times via a broker to hopefully get in front of a carrier rep who woul…

    I can answer this one. Sometimes you have lines like this: FROM ubuntu:focal RUN apt-get -y install libssl-dev Since libssl-dev gets periodically updated (security updates and what…

    Nice: typically you can also embed a web interface that is only available on localhost, but the telnet-style interface can be handy too.

    Medium? I'd think there's money there, just not sure for whom.

    Very nice. In a similar vein, I've used https://ricostacruz.com/flatdoc/ before, which is a bit more full featured and includes support for code samples.

    Is there a reason that as of 8:38pm EST on Saturday March 28, there is no information about China in the list? Might be an honest mistake (and I am expecting it to get fixed) but i…

    I'd counter that: make it a one time tax, like the Play Store. Is it reasonable that I need a Dun and Bradstreet number to write an application for my computer?

    I see nothing in any of the specs that implies local storage was intended to be temporary? You could argue cookies, maybe, but even that I'd dispute: it is a user-agent, I should b…
