It also explicitly says you can't use "Wordpress" in your product names, and WP Engine is doing that. I thought it might be common, but the other big providers do not use WordPress in their product names.

Core Wordpress

WP Engine is explicitly not doing that.

Supabase Auth is only authentication; it doesn't do organizations, permissions/RBAC, impersonation, etc. We are working on some fancy Postgres connectors to let you use Stack Auth with the DB part of Supabase and RLS.

GoTrue and Permify are on a lower abstraction level than us; we connect the entire stack (from frontend to database), while GoTrue and Permify still require a lot of setup and manual integrations.

What’s your timeline look like on that fancy supabase connector?

Auth is literally the next thing I’m working on…

Unless you own those sites, I'm afraid that's not going to be possible.

But if I do own those sites, there’s a way?

But its true.

Europe has a refined food history even if certain foods are young. There was some type of pizza before and it evolved in what pizza is today.

Alone the amount of cheese types is huge.

What did the USA invent in comparision? What is specific to USA? Even plenty of typical USA Food was invented in Europe.

Cajun cuisine and multiple types of BBQ come to mind.

I don't really understand why every brand nowadays wants to have a custom font

Licensing costs. It’s cheaper to design your own typeface than to license others when a platform reaches a large scale.

The framework you're looking for is more or less Vue.

(some will probably disagree, but I think most that have used Vue significantly won't)

brianfryer · 2 years ago
I too thought Vue would be a solid fit for what they described.
brianfryer commented on Ask HN: How do you stay productive throughout the day?    · Posted by u/DMell
brianfryer · 2 years ago
As I work from home (and for myself), my experience in managing myself includes:

* Doing something productive before work. Usually, this is cooking a mildly-elaborate breakfast (kale & miso-onions, zucchini, English muffin w/ a slice of tomato & saurkraut, and scrambled eggs). Other times it’s going to yoga. The point is to do something that makes me feel like I’m making progress.

* Answer emails/texts and write down a task list for the day. Oftentimes this is the same as the day before, but the act of writing it out helps me psychologically solidify what I’m going to do for the day.

* Coffee. These days, I drink RYZE and really enjoy the elevated feelings (it def needs some honey and non-dairy creamer). Previously, I’ve been into single-origin coffees from Kenya, Ethiopia, and Honduras (can’t stand the stuff from Indonesia). It was a fun (if expensive) hobby for a while. The point here is to have a ritual.

* Ritalin.

I've gotta say, Christian comes across as really naive in this piece.

> Well, it’s weird because prior to this, I almost always understood that Reddit as a company understood that they’re very community-focused, and they kind of didn’t do the bullshit corporate speak. And it was weird to kind of see this week, where they engaged in a lot more of that than I have historically ever seen them do. And it just went over… about as well as I thought it would.

I can't imagine anyone seeing this as a surprise given the way that reddit has been operating since at least before the redesign. They always make some corporate-PR-language post announcing unpopular changes, pretend to listen to everyone, then make the change anyway.

I imagine that, when working with reddit for 8+ years, he got a pretty good sense of what their culture is like.

His latest experience seems to be pretty out of line given the longevity of their relationship.

"Naive"? Maybe, but I can cut him some slack.

I'm curious how it sleeps and wears over time. I was thinking of building one like that, but decided against it because of the concern of the joints between the legs and the rails: if it's loose enough to assemble in the summer time without an almighty hammer, it seems like it'd be subject to a fair bit of racking and rattling during the winter when the air is much drier.

Does anyone here have any long-term experience with this kind of bed?

brianfryer · 3 years ago
I’ve had a Thuma frame for over a year now.

No rattling, no loosening. I plan to purchase another one (a king size) later this year.
