I was at least vaguely aware of <base>. No idea what <samp>, <track>, <dfn> or <del> do. Also apparently <ruby> is not for embedding Ruby scripts: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/ru...
samp and kbd are good for marking up terminal sessions e.g. https://j4e.name/articles/marking-up-terminal-in-html/

Another vote for Things 3. A simple and very polished to-do app. Really helps me be organised and I wish I could find a calendar app of similar quality/vibe.
Superhuman. Expensive and delightful email.
Velja. Opens URLs in preferred browser (Safari for everything except Meet, which opens in Chrome).
PS - I’m not a developer but really like Zed as a text editor.

With disclaimer I work at Neon, branching might be a good option here. https://neon.tech/docs/guides/branching-test-queries

Is this actually Postgres, or is it some other database that aims to be compatible with the PG wire protocol?
It’s Postgres.

Reading the pitch and this solves all of the problems I don't have (as a developer and operator of services that don't need to scale to millions of users). How often do you need to clone/restore whole databases, really? But I may be misunderstanding the pitch.
(Neon PM) instant branching in a development workflow because it's like git but for your database. You can develop or test against an exact copy of production without the risks of testing on production. Autoscaling is useful if the load on your datbase varies (you can save money, even if your app isn't serving millions of users).

Thanks! So that 300h of compute is for other branches? Still 24/7 for primary compute on Launch?
The Launch plan includes 300 compute hours. All your computes draw from this, regardless of whether or not it's a primary branch.
For a simple comparison, let's assume you only use 0.25 vCPU computes and your primary compute runs 24/7 (~750 hours per month) to keep the comparison easy:
1. On the Free plan, you can have the primary running 24/7 plus an additional 20 hours for other branches.
2. On the Launch plan, you can have the primary running 24/7 plus an additional 450 hours for other branches. And of course the 10 GiB storage + other paid features.

I couldn't try it because it had no email sign-up. Which is kind of weird for something that offer a tech (hosting essentially) product.
(Neon PM) You can use email+password, GitHub, Google or Hasura credentials to sign up at https://console.neon.tech/signup

Storage is the most surprisingly expensive part now. $1.50/GB is kind of a tough pill to swallow. We've been exploring the idea of shifting from Aurora to Neon. With the recent pricing changes, our bill has exploded even with almost zero usage of compute time.
(Neon PM). If you're willing to discuss your project's specifics, contact me directly mike@neon.tech as I'd love to chat.
