Having seen a lot of negativity around it, just want to say that the iPhone Air is the most exciting iPhone to me in a while -- I've been waiting for a big but still light option, but with the top-of-the-line CPU and a decent camera, for a long time. Will be curious to see how it pans out in the market, but I imagine I'm not the only one.
Looks like a lot of great improvements, but wanted to put in one vote in favor of keeping the capability of having a JavaScript-forward configuration/usage approach, rather than requiring a CSS-forward approach.
For us, one big benefit of using Tailwind has been that we can avoid spending a lot of time thinking about CSS and CSS tooling, and being able to configure everything via JS has helped in that regard.
That's exactly why critics of Tailwind (like myself) have been so frustrated…Tailwind shouldn't mean you avoid spending time "thinking about CSS". CSS should be a principal and respected pillar of a website's architecture, every bit as vitally important to reason about and understand as anything JS-related. Tailwind v4 promoting CSS-first configuration and customization, and allowing design token usage in vanilla CSS, knocks down a major complaint we've had regarding the framework.
Thanks! Yes, our strategy is to integrate the minimally-sufficient set of pieces into one coherent experience, to eliminate exactly that need for jumping around between different apps.
Probably. Though they can also change their settings.
While I agree with you, at the same time I think we need to recognize that most people are very uncomfortable with switching platforms. There's a lot of opportunity costs to most people. People tend not to be long term thinkers and aren't considering the consequences of their actions. For example, look at how many people here on HN -- where tech literacy is high as well as capabilities -- complain about Google's domination of the internet yet at every turn are quick to go after Mozilla and Firefox. The main alternatives are still Chromium based browsers. Same is true about Apple's walled garden. The sad truth is that things won't change unless we can convince the __average__ person, not __a__ person. Hell, I can't even get the most paranoid big brother boomer to use Signal despite it being rather trivial. I just don't know anymore tbh.
If you’re rendering multiple pages concurrently on the server, it’s nice to be able to know, for example, the current user without having to pass it down as a prop through the whole tree.
Role: Founding engineer, joining two technical founders
Location: New York or USA remote
Flipturn is a funded early stage startup working on increasing adoption of commercial electric vehicles (EVs) -- vans, buses, trucks, etc. The two technical founders are ex-Stripe, Samsara, and Apollo GraphQL, with a track record of delivering products from zero to product-market fit.
We've found that vehicle fleet managers are excited about EVs, but need a lot of help to make it through the whole process of evaluating and buying EVs. A lot of these revolve around planning and simulations, and can be significantly improved with software!
The commercial vehicle industry hasn't been saturated with software tools, and so this is a unique opportunity to work in a very greenfield environment where you can make a big impact on a huge industry -- over 12 million commercial vehicles are sold each year.
If you're interested in a super early stage role an have wanted to contribute to reducing emissions and fighting climate change, this could be the perfect opportunity!
Please email me at sashko@getflipturn.com if you're interested and want to chat.

Is there some relationship between Anthropic and Fly.io that I didn't hear about?
