“ The Internet's Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz” is a must watch documentary.

I’ve always had the same problem with website blockers: I might need YouTube for a tutorial related to what I’m working on, but allowing YouTube also means allowing every unrelated video. Same with Hacker News - I might need to look something up for work, but I shouldn’t end up reading the front page for the next 30 minutes.
Most blockers operate at the domain/app level, but whether something is distracting really depends on what you’re trying to do.
With Nono, you describe what you intend to work on at the start of a focus session. It then uses an on-device model to look at the active window in that context. So a relevant YT video can stay open, while an unrelated video gets blocked.
The tricky part right now is the model. It needs to be small and fast to run continuously, while still being capable enough to understand the context and not annoy you with false positives.

Multi-tenancy: how do you keep it fair? If some dude in another team runs a crazy expensive query, does that just wreck everyone else’s perf? We’ve seen this happen in other distributed systems where ‘fair scheduling’ is more of a wish than reality.

They had outage on 15 business days this month. January and February weren’t much better. We don’t want to migrate due to a lot of history on Github, but it is starting to have a significant impact on productivity.

Vehicles like this one are usually targeted at young people that can't yet get a license for a standard car (usually you need to be 18 in EU), but can get a license for vehicles with max speed of 45km/h from ±15 (depending on country).

Great ideas! Do you plan to support node.js?
