I spent a lot of time as a child playing the flight simulator demo, this brought back a lot of good memories

They seem to work through buttonfly, just not directly through the other links

If you don't use the app store, you can still install the xcode command line tools with the xcode-select command. I didn't bother signing in with an Apple account on my personal Mac.

We're talking about a web browser, right? What workflow?

It's an elitism thing. Notice the terminology "investing time to dramatically speed up workflow". This is the mantra that the keyboard-only adherents have latched onto, and extend to EVERYTHING, including things that are perfectly serviced via mouse control, or don't even need speeding up.

Arguing with them is like arguing with audiophiles.

Not sure why arguing is needed? You like a mouse, I think it sucks. If we meet up, we can trivially measure what is faster. What is there to argue?

Or we can not measure which is faster and just respect that everyone has their own preferences.

The irony is that the side accusing keyboard users of elitism is asking them to respect everyone's preferences! Sure, but the keyboard users didn't start this discussion either.

Also fine :)) Just no need to argue about it.

How to make interfaces for popular software. Or even unpopular software.

What strikes me as odd is that this browser is not in a terminal, but in a window. So no usage through SSH, no terminal benefits, which are the origin of the keyboard-oriented workflow.

When I press F12, does an inspector open? Where does it open? When I select some words, how do I send them to a new tab in YouTube, Amazon, Google or Stack Overflow? How do I open all the links which are within a selected rectangle in new background tabs? Or use uBlock Origin's element picker?

I'm pretty sure this browser is super fast and all is super optimized and a top tier workflow, but mostly in certain limited scenarios.

What did you think of the demos? The sorts of things you mentioned seem like things doable in NYXT based on the demos, possibly even the exact sort of stuff they are trying to make possible. It looks like it's basically Common Lisp with a web browser attached, which suggests it should be fairly moldable too. I have not seriously used it myself though, so I can't say for sure what the limits are.

You use the browser only to browse? We have all kinds of, usually quite shitty, web apps all types of LoB, ERP, etc. There is a lot of workflow to improve on.

Not necessarily with Nyxt or keyboard of course.

Even with a pdf browser, keyboard shortcuts come in handy. Especially with a big enough screen so that you can display the whole page at once.

Finding relevant text quickly. On the web. The web is where you go to find more information.

More like one of those hover chairs from Wall-E

I can't imagine those working too well these days. None of my cards have raised numbers, they'd make a completely blank impression. They have probably been completely phased out in the UK.

You write the number down with a pen on the carbon paper. The swipe isn’t required.

I think they mean that companies rarely update their status pages to reflect reality (for instance, AWS outages are rarely shown on their own status pages). This is often by design, company policy, or a desire to save face.

And it's so incredibly dumb. Companies need to get it through their thick heads that this is so incredibly short-sighted.

Not once has a status page that's devoid of information or slow to update ever saved face. I am far more annoyed to have to continue to verify "no, it is indeed that your service is down, not mine" and then file a support ticket. I am triply annoyed if the response from support is "ah yes that's a known problem and we're working on it" — known, and you just didn't bother to communicate.

I miss the days when Github had graphs. Even if they simply hadn't had the time to put a message on the page, you could tell from the graphs that it was Github. But even with "more information" that some PM might not like being put out publicly, Github felt more reliable & stable in those days.

At the end of the day, no amount of political gamesmanship will save you from having to actually run a reliable service, and gamesmanship just makes it more likely I'll ascribe false positives to your service, further lowering my perception of its reliability.

It's so watered down that the "AWS" emoji in our Slack instance is literally a meme of the status page.

I bet as long as the status page is not updated, it is not taken into account when calculating quarterly or yearly uptime statistics.

I am sure that counts. Probably tied into someone's bonus as well.

> Probably tied into someone's bonus as well.

very likely not just one.

not sure how this could work, as some qa/sre would have to be paid even more in order to effectively work against this type of falsification. there would have to be a very strong incentive for the company to do that.

You're not alone, though personally I quite like his tone and delivery. It's entirely probable that you're not in his target audience and that's okay.

It's true that some planes fly on leaded fuel, but commercial airlines generally do not. It's only piston engine planes that fly on leaded AvGas, all jet aircraft including tubroprops fly on fuels like Jet A (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_fuel)
