This is so awesome! What a time to be alive that something like this is possible.

Claude and I had some adventures in areas nobody had yet explored


Honestly seems like a proxy for bad parents have sad kids. Makes logical sense to me.


I was 100% sure I was about to see a USB drive made out of a nut shell when I clicked on that link. Both disappointed and not :P


I thought it was a reference to the old skool O'Reilly books.


Shameless plug for the banking app that I work on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AsM4gwmS5Y Fully offline on both Android and iOS


That was a really interesting talk, thanks for sharing! Have y'all given other talks? would love to learn more about your dev/release workflow


No problem :) Only other talk so far is a very similar talk from the iOS side available here - https://youtu.be/rvfVs_29MsI?t=4578. We do intend to talk about many more things in the near future. Ill try to remember to report back here when we do.


It’s funny, they way I describe the relationship I have with weight loss is exercise is that the exercise is giving you the reason to eat clean. You won’t want to make that effort worth nothing. It’s not the same for everyone but I certainly notice it


Hahaha what?

Sorry, but the term dirty bulking, and the existence of "eat big to get big" videos among the body builder community shows that many in the high end to elite strata of weight training not only just don't eat clean, but they also get their enjoyment and muscle from the absolutely nasty food they eat as part of it (... Yes and roids)

This is my experience as well. Going on a long run if you ate garbage the day before feels terrible, so you get conditioned to eat clean.


Honestly it's not technical things that are hard to hire for its finding engineers who show initiative and can communicate well with stakeholders. Its like finding gold especially now in remote working.


I not only am good at communicating with stakeholders, I enjoy doing so. But every place I’ve worked doesn’t even allow it. There is always a product team to act as a go-between/wall between stakeholders and engineering.


This has been so true in my experience recently.


I would make that tradeoff in a second.


Nonsense. You're saying you'd prefer shaving 125 Mbps off your Internet connection over 60 MB of your 8+ GB of RAM.


I have 32GB of RAM and I would still do that trade off. The 60MB is there all day long doing nothing for me. The internet connection is actually being used for something useful which is synchronizing my files (the actual purpose of the software). I feel like I'm wasting more resources with the first option.

Also it's not even that bandwidth expensive with most users' workflow. Maybe this should be a concern for video editors. Majority of people who are just editing word documents (or code, for what I believe is most HN's audience), wouldn't notice the difference.


I’m on gigabit fibre, yes


125Mbps? 60 MB?


> 125 Mbps?

10 TB / 1 month.

> 60 MB?

In the post they replied to.


> > 125 Mbps? > 10 TB / 1 month.

That's ~32Mbps.


60 MB was the download not RAM usage


Personally, I have joined a company and scaled the team from 12-52 engineers over the pandemic. Our productivity is through the roof and everyone is getting really well and forming good connections.
