When closing lots of tabs I go over the topics which helps me remember what I've looked at. And aggregators ofcīasically, I can only do work or look at depressing shit for so long but I get back to it after watching a cat video. Tabs about wind turbines without propellers, road side wind turbines, covid, oil and coal reserves. Dozens of tabs for websites I'm working at. A dozen tax tabs, courier services, business card services. There is a window with music, one with youtube videos I might want to watch/comment on with the further research tabs they spawn. When I get back to this discussion I look over the tabs it spawned and continue exploring while closing old ones. Cloud browsers, whole OS in the cloud, what hapend to paperspace? I open several articles that I may or may not read. There are more topics on HN currently under investigation. I for example let your comment sit here for a while unsure if I was going to reply to it. Yes! Ideally I have around 500 tabs that I all need. > Once you get above 20 tabs, are you genuinely keeping track of every single one as something to return to later? Zed also makes a big deal about Brandon not being able to delete his post - but I remember dang mentioning that they would delete posts when asked, but everyone so far has agreed to a compromise of removing the username but keeping the post, which does seem like the best solution in a case like this (where the content of the post has historical value but the author might want to disavow it). They're not saying that Brandon was a bad person or that his feedback wasn't useful or anything. My impression is that when linking to Brandon's post, people are usually saying "a company can still succeed by offering something that was previously possible, by making it easier to do" and "don't be discouraged by criticism saying it's already possible". But both exchanges between Drew and Brandon (the one in 2007 as well as the one in 2018) seem friendly to me. He quotes a post from Drew thanking Brandon for his remarks, and spends the rest of the essay saying the thanking is an uncalled-for "level of retribution", "effective slander case". I'm confused by how hostile Zed thinks Drew is being here.
