Agreed. Pair it with glasses (like the Orion) as a connected monitor and you could hack away at a side project anywhere and everywhere. I actually tend to do a lot of coding in bed…

I’m doing something like this in my current home setup, but the thing I miss most about multi-monitor is screen sharing on Zoom. I used to be able to just share one entire monitor …

Potentially you take both at once: use something like DynamoDB as the storage layer that also supports TTL natively.

I’ve always been intrigued by YC, but the commitment to relocate is hard to justify. I have three kids (with the oldest finishing up her junior year next month). So I’m not in a pl…

This is actually a space I’m exploring. Would love to chat about your use case if you’re interested. Shoot me an email at chris. Domain name revenuehq.com.

I frequently say that 16 y/o Chris would be very disappointed in 40 y/o Chris. But 16 y/o Chris was an idiot. As you touched on, the fun twist is when you abstract the learning so …

We use our minivan for a lot of these things, but I’d love to buy bulk mulch / topsoil instead of the bags. But loose mulch doesn’t play well with the van. I’ve always considered m…

Not really since you don’t lose access to prior versions. It’s more like buying the old Photoshop CDs but then getting three years of updates with that purchase.

If one’s taxes only went to pay for this small subset of items, I think your argument would be stronger. A 40% marginal tax rate is not earmarked for these essential services, as e…

I disagree. Perhaps AWS should be more selective in what they choose to launch, but once a service is launched you should have a very compelling reason to deprecate it. This create…

Eh, even corporate GSuite changes from time-to-time. Google products and services are less stable than AWS. I’m not talking about uptime, necessarily, but for all of AWS half-baked…

Definitely in undergrad. And also now that I have kids and kids have friends. Invite one other family over and we’re pretty close...

Unless Apple decides they won’t let you. This only works for “Reader” apps. For reference, see Basecamp’s Hey! offering.

Thinking on this, I don’t remember cases for the original Blackberry or Palm devices. I never cased a flip phone. Or one of my candy bar phones. Apple gets really excited to say “t…

Even worse, I once had a terrible experience with a product. Arrived beat to hell and very clearly just a cheap product. I left a review (maybe my third review ever?) and it was re…

I love Amazon, but refuse to buy supplements from them at this point. Fraud via co-mingling is real, and I’d rather burn down my house from a crappy wire than ingest powder from an…

Which they then “sold” to an end user. (Scare quotes because my I don’t believe for a second my iPhone belongs to me; but Apple is kind enough to rent it to me...)

“‘I will x if you will also x’ makes you reactionary and gives agency to someone else to act on your behalf.” This is true to an extent, but I find it unpersuasive. Because it’s ba…

I’ve had more than one experience where you go to use a hand operated and it’s empty. Then you wonder who touched that thing before you and what did you pick up. I despise the hand…

Which is also why I lean towards libertarianism...

Ignoring any potential ethical questions, I wonder how that works for state tax purposes?
