I can live preview my website from my local server / computer / laptop, while writing content from basically anything. Even a cheap and underpowered writing deck with 400 MHz CPU. The options are limitless.
You're absolutely underestimating the complexity of proper live preview of changes. This is essentially "hot reload" mode, but on the public internet, because it has to run on a public domain. Getting that right is a challenge, and if you don't know why, you haven't attempted to solve it yet.
Why would I want my WIP site to be on the public internet? This has been built into Jekyll for years. Probably other SSGs too but I don't know/use them.
Because you're thinking in the context of a solo developer working on their site locally. You don't need a CMS. People that want to collaboratively work on a website, some of which may lack technical skills, need a way of previewing their edits that doesn't involve running shell commands.
You're conflating the two unnecessarily. There's no reason Jekyll's server has to run on the editor's local machine. See my other comment about jekyll-admin which can be used collaboratively: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47737324
I don't see much of a difference between `jekyll serve` and the e.g. `service nginx start && service php-fpm start && service mariadb start` that would be needed to run WordPress. In fact I don't run my WIP Jekyll site on the same machine that I edit from. Mine is available only on my personal mesh VPN, but it could easily be available publicly if I wanted it to be.
I would appreciate getting into more details. As it sounds like a made-up problem to me. Perhaps you don’t understand how simple it is to have a static website as compared to a dynamic one. Especially to some simple project.
Check if your local library has a PressReader subscription. It doesn't help open links to paywalled articles, but depending on your library, you may already have access to a lot of newspapers and magazines.
This is great. One little thing, after the last song in the playlist is over, it would be nice if the state remained in play mode so that when another song is added to the queue the new song would play right away.
Also, I've been wanting something just like this but that would also play the video as well as audio.
Will ship that feature request. I can understand why that would be useful.
I thought about doing video, but that requires downloading and storing much more content in S3 which makes the app feel slower than it already does for just the audio.
The appeal of a catalog is to interest a prospective buyer, not the general public. Once you start targeting the general public, you run into the issues the GP has identified.
Company 4 is a reasonable answer. What's the point in having a scoring system if you're going to use personal judgement to determine the winner? Of course company 4 would be a bad fit. But the problem is the method that was originally chosen to evaluate the companies. The key is "according to the evaluation detailed in the chart". In reality, the company should look at these results and realize that they need a new evaluation method.
