(post author here) I was curious about this since it kind of makes sense, but I offer a few reasons why I think this isn't the case: - In the 10% noise case at least, the second de…

I have location services turned off while I’m not using the app and background app refresh turned off in iOS, but somehow Lyft still knows I’m at the airport and serves me a push n…

If you revise this prompt to satisfy your pedantry, (at least) 4o still gets it wrong.

I built a personal finance app ( https://tender.run ) in the style of mailbox (swiping, keyboard shortcut, inbox-based workflow for reviewing transactions). It's built on the autom…

Originally this was a privacy angle - the data is primarily stored on your device, with backend storage that’s treated like backup and sync only. I had plans for e2ee that built on…

I’ve been working on a personal finance tracker that uses automerge as the primary backing store. One trick we’ve been pulling is tailing the automerge contents into a sqlite db in…

Pretty neat! If notion folks are in this thread, what do you do about lack of SharedWorker in Android Chrome?

I run a personal finance app that's built as a PWA ( https://tender.run , my email is in my profile). I would say running as a PWA has been a mixed bag. There are quite a few missi…

It doesn't seem like it will i.e. _delete_ your username/password, but the behavior is actually automatic without user prompt. See 1:10-ish[0] for the demo - I found this at least …
