I've been a beta tester for a few weeks now. And as a Search and Discovery person I have plenty of granular feedback and feature requests for Dan, Brett and team that I still owe :)

Overall it has helped me in a couple situations. I will say when I was onboarded I don't believe audio was mentioned and a quick search for things I know I said in Zoom recently comes up empty--perhaps that functionality is new?

For now, I've found that I haven't yet hit the equilibrium point where I've forgotten something badly enough to replace my instinct to use Spotlight, browse Finder, or even search Google Drive (shudders). The Fitness app on iOS needs 180 days of data before it shows you trends; I feel like Rewind is similar in that I need a critical mass of data and time before I truly don't know where to look and go to Rewind first. Audio support would greatly reduce that window, however, so maybe I am missing out.

Overall I definitely recommend trying it out, however!

I am sure of this. I help lead search for Hulu and Disney+ and own a RokuTV. Roku already allows you the option to voice search inside the app you are already in (this has to be enabled by the Roku app developer I believe).

This definitely refers to the universal search Roku offers, and, if true, is an absurd ask on Google's part.

I worked for a company that had 100 of these, AMA

GIPHY has agreements with pretty much all the major content studios, including ones historically protective of their content, such as HBO, the NFL and Disney.

And undercut them offline in Amazon Go, Whole Foods and whatever other physical grocery initiatives are coming

Yes. I only posted once, but did get a few replies.

I will say that more than one of them was by people who were not hiring managers but rank-and-file employees fishing for referral bonuses.

The number of good leads I got was effectively zero.

You mean Vultr is pretty similar to DO :)

When I worked at DigitalOcean all we could do was shake our head and laugh at how blatantly hard Vultr tried to copy what we did.

Ha, nice domain name!

I am guessing that people outside the US do not have as much trouble, as the format is naturally dd/mm/yyyy instead of mm/dd/yy, so reading left to right is more natural.

It took me a brief moment to acclimate to this, but after I did I felt it was pretty straightforward and elegant.

I'd want the touch bar to sit on top of the function keys, but I agree.

I also would be much happier if it was just easier to turn it off or if it at least made each touch action take 200ms or so so that I don't accidentally hit it all the time.

  And now the community's hard work is licensed under a new 
  and restrictive license which, due to legal constraints, 
  cannot be used in entreprise setups.

Sure it can. It is fairly narrow in that it targets reselling it as-a-service. Many large companies are still running MongoDB for enterprise workloads, the SSPL does not change that.

I really wish this was the top comment. I feel like HN is turning a little too much into an echo chamber dunk fest sometimes.

Cars are often not faster in dense cities. In NYC most deliveries are by e-bike.

We noticed that too having recently moved here from NYC where Dominos is still largely available :[
