Do Channels on Nebula count? Since Nebula is paid only, ads free and creator owned (as far as I understand), it might be the one prime example of a video platform not incentivized to restrict access to only consumers using proprietary, big tech OSes.

So do they share their implementation of overlaying stores somewhere? It would be a huge benefit for the community to have it open source and available for being used in countless other use cases.

Cool idea. I'm stuck waiting for a match for a few minutes.

It would be great if it could show how long it takes on average until one is matched with a partner. Maybe it could also show how many people are chatting right now.

Iirc Excalidraw is built on top of Google Firebase. That doesn't make it less nice, but imo it shouldn't count as open source or self hostable.

Can you go a bit more into detail what you mean by protobuf "reflection service"

Have you contacted any doctors or hospitals in Europe? We do take healthcare more seriously here, so I'm wondering whether you get the same response.

> UNIX commands are more an accident of history than a cohesive, coherent, composable design. PowerShell was designed. It was designed by one person, in one go, and it is beautiful.

I'm curious about that design and would love to learn about it.

Note, that I'm not interested in learning how to actually use powershell as a developer, but understand the abstraction design choices, that went into it.

Every time I tried to learn about that, I'd find recommendations about Books with 1000+ pages and similarly time consuming resources.

Do you have an recommended read for understanding the design choices, that went into powershell, while not learning the details, that a everyday windows would need?

Things I care about: -How do Lamdas work? -Arrays are Objects. How exactly? -Typesystem -Are there native wrappers for the kernel APIs how do they fit into the objectmodel? -Since to my understanding no shortflags exist, how is verbosity avoided? -How thight are interfaces defined. If a tool provides a new interface in a new version, can old tools still work with it?

The choice of using the word professor, seems misleading to me. Far more often teachers will adjust their content to ensure optimal performance in tests. Especially in a education system like this.

I can only imagine what side effects this must have for motivation. When you are cautiously trying to appear focused, can you even develop a passion for a subject?

Can you summarize or refer me to a summary on how this platform compares to others?

I'm most interested to see how it tackles these points:

- Profitability - Digital Sustainability (Guaranteeing that the user can use it in the future) - Interop with other platforms - Privacy
