tsg··on Thinking with pen and paper
What would you be bringing for a whiteboard? I also use microfiber cloths for cleaning these, but I don't know any other tricks.
tsg··on Ask HN: What happened to Pinboard (June 22)? Should I switch to Raindrop?
Thanks - wish it could be used with more browsers, this looks amazing (I use orgmode all the time, but I also use Safari...). That said, it looks good enough that I'm going to give it a go, thanks again for pointing it out.
tsg··on Ask HN: What happened to Pinboard (June 22)? Should I switch to Raindrop?
Thanks. I missed that he actually posted on my thread from April, with something of an explanation of why different people are having different issues:

tsg··on Ask HN: What happened to Pinboard (June 22)? Should I switch to Raindrop?
Thanks - good suggestion - I'll try asking for a refund and see where it gets me...
tsg··on Ask HN: What happened to Pinboard (June 22)? Should I switch to Raindrop?
Thanks! I gave up on tagging some time ago, too (decent search is more important for me).
tsg··on Ask HN: What happened to Pinboard (June 22)? Should I switch to Raindrop?
Thanks - I guess it doesn't look likely to get archiving, though, for those (like me) who would like that:

tsg··on Ask HN: What Happened to Pinboard (April '22 edition)?
I started the previous thread and nothing has changed for me - I just looked and my wife's account is still completely broken (full text search just returns errors), and 90% of the bookmarks on my account for the previous month have failed to archive at all.
tsg··on Ask HN: What Happened to Pinboard?
I have 7240 bookmarks, which is apparently using 26.55 G of space.
tsg··on Ask HN: What Happened to Pinboard?
Thanks for the ArchiveBox suggestion - from the demo, this could be extremely useful!
tsg··on Ask HN: What Happened to Pinboard?
Good idea. Here are some URLs that have failed to archive for me in the last few months (I suspect none are close to being that large):

tsg··on Ask HN: What Happened to Pinboard?
Thanks - have made a note to take a look again once archiving and full text is working (which are the key features for me).
tsg··on Ask HN: What Happened to Pinboard?
Thanks, this sounds like exactly the same behaviour as on my account...
tsg··on Ask HN: What Happened to Pinboard?
Thanks! I have a suspicion that the issue with my wife's account is caused to the account name (and in particular the fact that it contains a hyphen), as any search throws an error "unknown local index 'blah__blah' in search request", with the account name actually being 'blah-blah'.

Full search text existing archived bookmarks still works fine on my account, but only about 1 in 20 new bookmarks are archiving now.

Anyway, I'm glad to hear that it's still rock solid for you, hopefully it can be for me again.

tsg··on Gmail having issues
Now showing as fixed fwiw.
tsg··on Google wave starts rolling, picks up over 100,000 new riders
tobygee at google on the off-chance that anyone does have invites spare.
tsg··on Sorry, iPhone 3G owners--AT&T's iPhone 3G S price for you is perfectly fair.
Well, yes - but that was clearly rather different, as the 2G wasn't subsidised, and indeed didn't require a contract at purchase. This seems to be consistent with all other upgrades from subsidised phones ever, so I'd say it is historically consistent.
