Hmm, I guess I don't really get the concept. I still don't know how this stops constant interruption from emails, Zooms, and messaging pings.

If the block on my calendar for this is supposed to help stop people contacting me -- well, it doesn't stop them now.

I'm glad this seems to work for some people though.

Do you just imagine parents at home with their developing children, wearing masks 24 hours a day?

Or that they only learn how to emote and facial expressions from their limited interactions outside their home?

Wear a mask. The kids will be fine.

I was on the phone with them getting a demo of Enterprise Managed Users at the time and the demo was failing too, ha. So we looked at the status page together and saw all yellow.

Doesn't matter, I wanted EMUs without the demo anyway. Still was funny to happen when I was talking to an engineer at the time.

Only commenting to say their site makes me mad cause it breaks the browser history. I click the link, go to the fb engineering site, and the back button has no history to go back to HN. Dark Pattern UX -- gross.

If I want to learn a new technology, that's been out a while, I make sure to look for jobs for it first. Just a gut check on how many opportunities are out there for it.

This doesn't work for something brand new of course, but I still do a cursory look through job sites to see what I can see.

Like for instance on Dice.com right now there are 60 jobs available. If I were interested in Clojure today and saw that, I probably wouldn't bother because I know Clojure is mature but there's not a market for it apparently.

Again, this isn't meticulous or scientific at all, just a gut check with a few searches.

Then again, Rust only has 13 jobs listed soooooo.....

Yeah, coincidence, saw the same on my Mac.

If you have an iPhone yes. Will it let the Android users know?

I don't want my device sending or receiving any data using my data plan without my knowing. Do apps I have installed send shit constantly? Sure. But those are MY apps -- that's on me for using them. But if someone else has a tag, and I'm near it, my phone shouldn't be used to send/receive data about said tag at all. I definitely don't like this "we created a network of devices and everyone is opted in" setup.

Similar to the hub-bub raised of Alexa devices "sharing" internet connectivity.

Never heard of this but now I'm in love.

Now to figure out what I can write about.

Though I'm definitely going to use this for internal docs at work probably. Very nice.

Really? Define it then.

Facebook is a website by all technical terms.

Where is the hard defined line between social media services and a website?

What is a website that hosts a forum?

What is Discord?

What if I run a WordPress website with the BuddyPress plugin?

What about comments on my blog articles?

I feel like buying it to support them because Mac native app companies are few and far between. And Transmit was good when I needed to use it (haven't forever). And Coda was my main editor for a long time.

But I'll still use VS Code cause I work on a Mac and on Linux and it's nice for it to just be the same. And I have no complaints to solve with VS Code. It does exactly what I need for Python and other stuff.

I love Panic. Transmit was awesome when I needed a great sftp client gui. But I don't need it anymore.

Coda was baller. But I don't need it anymore.

I think I'll go ahead and buy Nova to check it out and support them. But VS Code does everything I need and I have no complaints about it. Plus I can use the same editor on my Mac and on my Linux desktops.

I find it interesting they're getting into this space, but more power to them.

Continuously throw stuff at the wall to see what sticks?
