• Show HN: A Full-Stack Web Framework Written in Go

  Sure, it's actually been a long journey since PHP. I switched from PHP to Node about 11 years ago. I was probably one of the first 100 Node.js developers. My biggest contribution there was creating https://github.com/cheeriojs/cheerio. Go spoils me because it "just works". The best way I can explain it is when I'm stuck on something in Go, it's almost always my bad, not something that Go is doing poorly. This is... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Show HN: A Full-Stack Web Framework Written in Go

  Yes, exactly. Even the creator of Node says so: "I think Node is not the best system to build a massive server web. I would use Go for that. And honestly, that’s the reason why I left Node. It was the realization that: oh, actually, this is not the best server-side system ever." Heavy computation still ties up the event loop in Node.js. We're just not talking about it as much because most people deploy to... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• YC startup: Our app was so bad it went viral

  I’m one of the cofounders of Superpowered. It’s been almost 3 years since this all went down, and it’s been a ride. We're launching again today, and I thought it’d be fun to share our story. Source: about 1 year ago

• Is there an app like Up Next for M2 Macs?

  Have you tried superpowered.me ? I do not own an M2, but it works flawlessly on my M1 machines. Source: almost 2 years ago

• First time at a Mac/Google shop - teach me your ways

  Superpowered - Gives me a great calendar widget in the taskbar that provides notifications 10min & 1min ahead of upcoming meetings. Also allows you to join meetings with keyboard shortcuts (Command+Y & Command+J). Just note that they implemented some REALLY crappy spam-marketing stuff that can email meeting participants on your behalf - make sure you disable that in the settings immediately.

• Is this CSS/JS or motion graphics?

  I was looking through some Y Combinator startups' websites and came across this. I thought the opening graphic sequence with the calendar notifications + minimizing into the menu bar looked pretty nice. I was then wondering whether this animation sequence could have been created solely through CSS/JS or whether it's just created through something like PS/Illustrator. I'm leaning towards the latter but I'm also not... Source: about 2 years ago
