I was really excited when I read your post. I've long looked for a good MarkDown -> PDF or RTF workflow, so I gave KeenWrite a quick try. At first glance I really thought I'd be exactly the user for this tool, but quickly realized that the discoverability of KeenWrite isn't nearly good enough.
Upon launch, I'm presented with three panes. I've got a MarkDown authoring interface and an output preview. Great. I drop in some markdown and it renders.
Then I have a "variables.yaml" pane open with three little controls, "Create", "Rename", and "Delete". Ok... I'm editing a YAML file. But it's a clunky nested node editor. People can edit a MarkDown file but you don't think it's faster to simply let people edit YAML in text?
So, I get it, I'm editing a YAML file that stores metadata about... SOMETHING about my document output. Except I don't have a single example of a variable. Not a single one. I have no idea what variables are available and exploring every single menu option tells me nothing. Help only provides a small about page with no link to the documentation.
So, I go to keenwrite.com and click documentation. It takes me to a single GitLab readme that talks about different command line launch options, and then finally how to begin to use metadata, but the options all revolve around creating an .Rmd file and using R or creating a "definitions.yaml" instead of a "variables.yaml" in a seperate editor.
This is the moment I realize there's no chance this tool is going to be useful for me.
Probably not. PillPack is MDP: multi-dose packaging, which is little packets containing multiple medications. All they're advertising here is regular bottled medications, which is a much easier-to-solve mail-order prescription problem.
At the same time, Reddit exists, and this is a community of people created by a VC company explicitly to have wonky tech discussions with other professionals called "Hacker News". It's fine every once in a while but I don't want this to be filled with generic human interest stories.
It's actually really common for women who have experienced sexual assault to take steps (gaining weight, wearing loose baggy clothing) to avoid the male gaze.
Even though the second Keen trilogy had richer graphics, I really loved the first Keen trilogy for the gameplay. The jumps and movement felt so much more physical. Keen would make this tiny pause as if winding up for a jump each time he jumped. The later Keen just did big floaty isometric jumps that didn't have the same snap. That said, I loved and played every single one of those games.
+1 for using Vagrant. This lets you bring instances up and down much more easily. Also, for most things you need (like say a Rails/nginx stack, or a LAMP stack) there's a prebuilt Vagrant box you can start from.
Also, some modern IDE's have Vagrant support natively, which allow you to work transparently in whatever Windows IDE you like, and operate your VM from there.
I'm sure they don't cost Amazon $200 to produce, and assumably they can just bill corporate customers for them if they're not returned. Some amount of loss is probably included in the cost to consumers.
Looks like the advantages as listed are:
- Very simple visual configuration software
- Ability to view a graphical representation of device usage and prioritize a device
- Ability to update the device without interrupting the connection
- Sends setup information to Android devices via an audio tone
