I am looking for a way to run Lotus Improv - which was a cool piece of software back then. Did anybody get this to run?

No, the results are embedded in a web app.

I'd like to thank the creators of ClickHouse as i hope they are reading here. We've been using it since 2019 in a single server setup with billions of rows. No problems at all. And query speeds that seem unreal compared to MySQL and pg.
As we did not want to go into the HA/backup/restore details at that time we created a solution that can be quickly recreated from data in other databases.
Interesting presentation from Alexey about Features and Roadmap from May 2021:

The US already has the cleanest of water and air. No need to do anything when you are leading the others bigly.

Good thing i never bought a Nest device. As with most "Google made" devices the lifespan and their commitment to support a product are abysmal.
Honestly we need to change the way we think about products - especially household products like those Nest was selling. No way can i save money with it if i pay 300$ and it gets killed after 2 or 3 years. And i'm not even talking about the environmental aspects.
The documentary about Dieter Rams makes me long for more designers who understand their responsibility.

It would be really nice to have a browser extension that shows the amount of other reviews every reviewer has in the last n months. Someone with 20+ review can not really be trusted and can be filtered out.
Or even better: If Amazon would spend some of their AI departments time and delete those fake reviews on a daily basis. So tired of them.

Very nice. We've been looking into this but the "beta" status kept us away.
So the bigger news here is Google Nearline Storage graduating to general availability.

It's not exactly "once". It's exactly "one" within a defined period of time. So in that articles context it would be the "at-least-once" variant.

Richard Stallman wrote https://stallman.org/millions.html a few days after the 9/11 attacks.
Sadly still so true. The attacks from January 2015 have led to this horrible secondary damage.

Nice first impression. Some issues though: No video chat. That's the main thing i use skype for. Sound goes through my Macs default settings. I can change the microphone to my headset but not the output. If i change the output to headset it will also change this for my music which is annoying.
