    Great work! Some questions: 1. How would you compare Stacker to Retool? 2. Would the data from Stripe/Intercom appear as just another sheet/table? 3. One thing I learned that, desp…

    The Code component seems like a catch all. If it were to support actual AST, surely const a = 3 Would have looked something like: a 3

    Author here! What can you do with it: 1. String together Unix-like text processing functions into a text processing pipeline. 2. Share said pipeline with friends and co-workers thr…

    Really really cool! I wonder if we can do something similar with programming. Suppose we have a conceptual framework where each module/system is a widget made up of slightly simple…

    you're right about that, so I think what it could help us with is to provide a sort of guidance when we have a particular end-goal in mind.

    This might be a little off-topic, but I wonder if the idea of nano-passes can be applied to other areas. For example, can we predict the future of technology by gradually evolving …

    So...eat cheese the night of your study cram? (Bad idea if you're lactose intolerant)

    Ask HN: Is polymimetic alloy (from Terminator 2) a physical possibility?

    I understand it's likely not technically feasible right now, but suppose we're sufficient advanced, how would we go about doing it? Some ideas I have: 1. Use quantum locking to rea…

    I had come from a Compilers/computer vision and distributed systems background, and just recently I decided I'd quit my job and bootstrap my own little SaaS business. My web develo…

    I understand that the achievement in question was made in a high pressure environment; but if we get room temperature superconductors (at standard atm pressure), does that mean lar…

    @ML experts: could a model be trained from ECoG data so that we can better isolate signals from EEG?

    I wonder if the state that C++ finds itself now is a result of sub-optimal compromises between different interests in the standards committee. Year long arguments of what ought to …

    Look again. The downward trend of Java was arrested and it stayed on a plateau when Android began becoming popular; then come 2015 they both came down together. If we're using Goog…

    Does anyone know of a similar tool but for programming/connecting to a remote terminal? Electronic ink display with week or even month long battery life? CPU doesn't need to be sup…

    This might be a contentious question, but how did it come to this in US (likely not the only country suffering from problems with law enforcers), i.e best course of action would be…

    OP's probably referring to induced demand [0], or something similar to Braess's paradox [1]. But I see your point though. If people are incentivized to share a car then that might …

    That video reminds me of a comic I sketched out years ago. It's about this rag tag armed group of hackers who specialize in intelligence espionage in the near future. There's a pay…

    Is this about the rising cost of housing? My understanding is that it has more to do with nimbyism and proposition 13 than just engineering wages pricing out locals. That said, I d…

    Theory of relativity would say that there are many 'nows', which one you're in depends on which frame of reference you're in :) To a photon traveling at c, the birth, growth, and d…
