Is there a repo link to checkout and explore how this all came together? Since using Cursor, been dabbling about getting back into coding areas I've always had some interest in in the past but never developed into a hobby project; Swift is at the top of list.

Nice site, would you be putting it on GH at some point? I'm very interested, no, captivated by simple projects like this using FastAPI and want to learn that

Am I misreading or are there no translations to pure JS available specifically for collections? The ease of being able to do "what i think I want to do in my head" with a collection using a one-liner often is the primary reason I'd use anything Lodash-y in the first place. The fact that I can import those methods directly to my projects and forget about the guilt of bundling the rest of the library really have kept Lodash top of mind for me for years.

I have found that not so much when writing my own projects and tinkering, but specifically for "real" work (at my job) is when I have to deal with iterating over collections all the time. Anything less readable than Lodash is just overly annoying thanks to JS verbosity. Most people wouldn't remember to pull these methods out of a utils directory that we maintain simply for the purpose of ignoring packages like Lodash.

By a collection, I'm talking about an array of objects that follow the same pattern.

I'm not quite following, I don't see a video related to whiskey on the profile of the video posted to this thread?

I can understand how what I personally find engaging can be banal and unnecessary to others, but with this case I can't think of anything that would serve as a more fitting opening metaphor for the entire essay. The chunky wine opener that serves its intended purpose and was a gift, but lays taking up an incongruent amount of space for its intended use invites some observation on all the other unused-but-still-owned stuff that we're forced to either continue possessing or send along to the trash.

I guess some (not implying you) might consider the observations somewhat shallow, and maybe they would find the solution to be "simple". Just throw more stuff out.

Relevant to the other conversations going on in this thread, how simple is it to re-map that ctrl-[ to work globally? I'm assuming I'd have to install something for this. I am also using a Mac and use the caps-lock-as-escape to, say, close my spotlight search bar after activating it using the command+space shortcut.

If you'd allow me to respectfully suggest an edit to the (IMO cleverly written) by-line of the site.

> This is, somehow, a slowly updated news-aggregator with relevant trends, micro-trends and edge cases for borderline nerds, that don't want to miss out, nor spend a shit-ton of time distilling trivia.

> Internal communication and supporting customers in shared Slack channels

If you're using Slack solely for the purpose of talking to your co-founder over a few categorized channels then the price is definitely not worth it over using email etc. IMO - unless you're willing to pay $13 a month to click on reaction emojis.

However Slack's ability to be used as a sort of centralized dashboard for most if not all of the other services listed on the blog article might just be convenient enough to merit that price point. In addition to supporting customers and probably being able to chat with them right through the app, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if they've set up one-click integrations for the other paid suites including Sentry, LinkedIn Sales, Hubspot.

Love the idea for the app. There's something else that I've just noticed about your profile as a creator that's certainly captured my interest, and now I'm wondering what kind of story there can be behind it.

If you don't mind my asking, how did it happen that Barack Obama follows you on Twitter?

Again, really cool job on the app:).

Don't downvote this guy, if anybody's ever watched the show we can agree this is an honest response.

HN is likely the only outlet I could even remotely consider falling under that category of "professional development", aseven time spent on TechCrunch, ProductHunt, Gizmodo, Motherboard etc. is usually just more of the same stuff I look at on Reddit but without the guilt of actually _being_ on Reddit. Consequently, those are the sites I've caught myself spending way too much time on without noticing that most of my intake of articles and videos is just fluff.

Any chance you could share some of those outlets you personally consider similar to HN?

Question that struck me immediately after reading this headline: As someone in his 20’s who splits time living between western Europe and the US, just how plausible is my fear of seeing something like this either here or in my home country in my lifetime?
