I tried out Superpowered and while it's more polished than its competitors, it has a few downsides other commenters have already touched upon (pricing, memory use, and personally, the name hits too close to home to Superhuman.)
I've found that the best alternative is Slapdash. [0] Connect your calendar and then just hit cmd + J and boom -- Zoom is running. Many more connections are amazing as well, eg. deep Dropbox and Drive integration.
This is neat. In a similar fashion I'm a big fan of diff-highlight, [0] which post-processes the git diff and highlights with color the differing segments. It's super lightweight and part of the official git repo; I've saved it as a standalone #!/bin/perl in my $PATH and then included it in my .gitconfig:
[pager]
log = /Users/user/.bin/diff-highlight | less
show = /Users/user/.bin/diff-highlight | less
diff = /Users/user/.bin/diff-highlight | less
Congrats on shipping, OP--looks interesting. FWIW, if someone's interested in a macOS app instead of a web one, I built Pomodoro a little less than a year ago. [0] It's minimal, sits in the menu bar, looks ok, and doesn't have ads.
FWIW, @modestproposal pulled out some interesting nuggets from the S-1 filing and wrote a very interesting thread about some good stuff and some things that raise questions. Worth reading. [1]
Installed it and played around for a bit. Nice work overall. Amp's jump mode (press `f` and elements in the buffer will be prefixed with a two character jump token) is pretty cool. Would love to see this in Vim.
This sounds fun but honestly reminds me of all these emacs folks who've turned a text editor into a byzantine operating system with email, RSS, microwave cooking, and laundry folding.
Why yes, thank you for the excellent segue. Pomodoro [1] is a no-frills minimal macOS app I wrote in Swift. It does its job, looks ok, and doesn't have ads.
> Using 1Password to store your 2fA seed makes it single factor
Thanks. I certainly understand that but the convenience trumps the risk imo. Further, I don't want to reach for and insert a USB drive every time I want to log in somewhere. And what if there's no available USB port?
Can someone ELI5 why Yubikeys are better for 2FA than using, say, 1Password, which simplifies the process with cmd + \ and automatically pasting the 2F code? (Even better than Google Authenticator; no need to reach for anything.)
I have not migrated yet from my old Wordpress installation. Yes, you can write in Markdown and athena will use Pandoc to convert it to static HTML for you.
Author / OP here. athena started as a pet project for my personal blog; in the process I thought of releasing it publicly as well. I simply like Tufte CSS. athena's a great playground to experiment with ET's ideas and SSGs while incorporating my personal Pandoc (academic and casual) publishing workflow. My main goal was to create one workflow to write plain text docs and be able to publish to PDF via LaTeX (Tufte layout or not,) HTML (same,) slides, letters, &c without (or with minimal) changes in document structure. In any way, you're more than welcome to pull request a new, non-Tufte CSS layout.
athena is an elegant, minimalist, light-weight static blog generator written in Python. It's just over 50 lines of code. athena tightly integrates with Tufte's design and typography rules. Have a look! [1]
Sublime Text is the better option right now. Atom is still (too) slow. Can handle pure programming, remote files over ssh, [1] complex builds, and act as a one-stop-shop for all your writing needs. [2]
[2] My personal experience/setup: write in Markdown, export to pretty much every file format using Pandoc (binds nicely with a ST package) and custom Pandoc builds/templates. For instance, I export native Markdown to Tufte Handouts LaTeX-generated PDFs. Love this.
