throwaway413 · a year ago
Has anyone had performance issues using JSONPath? We are processing large pieces of data per request in a node express service and we believe JSONPath is causing our service to lock up and slow down. We’ve seen the issue improve as we have started refactoring out JSONPath usage for vanilla iteration and conditional checks.

There are a lot of factors at play so we can’t quite put our thumb on JSONPath, but it’s the current suspect and curious if others have run into anything similar.

Who do you talk to about stuff? -> Most age peers don't have kids yet, so I rebuild relationships with people I went to high school with that do have kids.

Do you have any time for yourself? -> One kid is not that bad from a free time perspective, but when you have two there's maybe five hours a week for each parent and it ends up being zero sum with two (or more) on one childcare.

Where are all the tech dads? -> Age peers in tech don't seem to have kids despite being the small slice of people arguably able to comfortably afford it. Mostly seem to bank up cash and have kids in mid to late 30s and slow lane themselves.

I wrote a bit about my experience being a founder and a dad where I started my company in the same month as my wife and I found out she was pregnant with our first child. Link here: https://rogerkirkness.com/founder-and-father

Agree with all of this. As a single parent though it’s hard to find the free time - for me, only during school hours (work time) or if I explicitly arrange child care, which is rare because well, usually I want to and am doing activities with my kid.

Being a younger dad relative to my kids age, it has been very isolating and challenging to find anyone who shares my lifestyle, my responsibilities, who can really understand the stage of life I am in. They are usually either very pre-kid and enjoy life independently, without much awareness or desire thereof to the responsibility of parenthood, or, they are on the opposite end and fully settled down and have forgotten what a city looks like after dark.

Software, cycling and pizza. Some of my favorite things in life. This project and write-up was thoroughly enjoyed, and has inspired some of my own similar ideas now! Cheers

Can’t imagine why.

Can you elaborate? Curious.

Would this be suitable for building a terminal-themed react webpage where I’m essentially trying to simulate a terminal?

I’d love to hear what the inspiration for this was. Maybe just a code golf project for fun, but based on the author’s last blog post, something tells me the iceberg of inspiration runs deep.

My follow up question would be, how do you envision sharing a sheet? With someone right next to me, and with someone across the world. With or without internet access, seeing that this office suite is offline-first.

This is very cool.

What does VS Code provide here? The I/O + preview foundational capability? Could you install this as a plug-in to your desktop vs code instance?

Map esc to caps lock with your terminal emulator. That’s what I do.

+1. Blink does this great.

This is one of the coolest things I've seen on HN. I am definitely going to try to follow the instructions on this in the near future! I don't even play saxophone, but now I am not definitely going to learn. I would 100% buy one of these, if not 3 so I could give some as gifts.

Thanks for sharing and seriously, awesome project. Almost brings a tear to my eye.

Almost all your complaints are addressed with the quest pro. Especially the sweat and passthrough are all much better. I just used it yesterday to work w/horizons workrooms while at the office, and being able to see my surroundings was great.

I'm going to re-try using Immersed as well, I haven't figured out a great way to address the latency in the office yet.

Obviously, working at Meta means showing up as an avatar to a meeting isn't seen as a big or unique deal (usually more than one person in every meeting is an avatar). I do think video of someone's face is WAY more expressive than an avatar.

Try horizon workroooms. To me, immersed is like Linux - tons of options, more features, but it’s a bit trickier to set up just right and things seem to not stay right, it takes constant adjustment.

Horizon workrooms was like using a Mac - it “just works” when I onboarded, less features but way less hassle. I much prefer it personally.
