I'm a member of the beta. The Slack group regularly sees influxes of hundreds of new customers, many of who seem to have signed up from the waitlist.

What if, and bear with me, strong AI poses real dangers and open sourcing extremely powerful models to everyone (including malicious actors and dictatorial governments) would actua…

Facebook is the creator and maintainer of the most popular web framework in the world (React). This certainly doesn't mean they should do cloud computing, but let's not downplay th…

Is the cost really that high? For the vast majority of projects, all developers will need to do is run "yarn prettier". We can't expect everything to be perfect on day one, nor sho…

The same people shaming Amazon and Fedex are probably the same people buying a ton of goods online for delivery and getting upset about the delays.

The goal of a side project can be whatever a person wants it to be. Make money. Learn something. Improve people's lives. Creative outlet. Your definition limits people's ambitions.…

Does your release process include publishing to brew? I ask because brew only has 0.10.3, whereas crates and github show something a few versions ahead (0.11.3). Looks awesome!

Creating a free, open source alternative to TurboTax, H&R, etc seems like a noble pursuit that could benefit tens of millions of people. Ideally governments would offer their own f…

The Notable + Syncthing setup is intriguing – might have to switch off Evernote and give that a shot. How do you view/edit your notes on a mobile device? Thanks for sharing!

Ex-uber engineer here. Uber's chat app is based on Mattermost, not built from scratch.

Nice. Hows that occasional instance where you need to type your 100 character password into Netflix on a Smart TV?

A hypothetical – since flights are relatively expensive, people usually just go for the cheapest option, so airlines race to the bottom and lose profits. With autonomous vehicles t…

That's not 7M vehicles concurrently though. At any given time maybe there are a few hundred thousand trips happening. With self-driving cars utilization can go way up since they're…

The amount of data collected by your average Goog/Cruise/Uber autonomous vehicle is on the order of gigabytes per minute. I highly doubt Tesla is phoning home data at that level of…

This ruling was actually relatively good news for Uber, it could have been worse. It's only a partial preliminary injunction, they can still continue working on self-driving techno…
