I've been using Airplane.dev since their first post on HN, and I was repeatedly delighted with the way the product "just worked", I thought they made great choices about code vs. config vs. admin, and their feature development velocity was superb.

I was ready to really jump in and move beyond simple internal tools to build complex, mission critical internal systems in airplane.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I would love to leverage the powerful Airtable UI, but their scripting vs. custom extension offerings have always felt underpowered and needlessly complex, respectively.

And the "Learn more" link inside the Your Design Assistant section doesn't point anywhere.

I once attended a talk by a neuroscientist at UCSF, Adam Gazzaley, that really helped me see what the future of medicine could look like if we appreciated the power of experience, and more importantly if we could measure and then alter said experience in a realtime closed-loop system. My takeaway was that one day we might think of blasting our synapses with SSRIs or Adderall similarly to civil war era surgeons...the bone saw does prevent gangrene, but in a such an inefficient way.

^^^ this killed me. i'm sure everyone who has ever interacted with a SOAP api feels the same. god bless this tiny kitten/person/hacktivist, the world needs more of this energy.

Five years ago I inherited a project that had four repos sharing a Git submodule.

Now I tell people to never use Git submodules.

Is Ian Fleming saying that he was sexually abused as a child?

One thing that's preventing me from dumping in a bunch of action items is that I can't figure out a way of creating tasks via the keyboard. Is this possible?

As it stands you just get dumped into the builder with no guidance whatsoever. I wanted to evaluate the tool, but there's no way I could dedicate that kind of time to something I didn't know existed 5 minutes ago without even knowing what it's capable of building.

Surely you have made something complex and impressive with it, right?

A couple weeks ago I compared it head to head against starbucks Via while backpacking.

Sudden Coffee totally blew Starbucks Via away. It's about as much better than Via as Via is compared to the horrible Nestle stuff.

It's not going to replace my daily pourover, but for future camping trips I'll be drinking Sudden. For this use-case, the subscription model is a pain. I'd prefer to just buy two or three cases to have a supply and give some out to my outdoor friends/family.

Remember HN is the sum of it's parts. Be a postitive part.

1. I'd prefer to see monthly pricing.

2. I found the scroll behavior to be quite jarring.

Good luck.
