Super excited to see this. There's plenty of demand for flying with a pet. Especially given the removal of all ESA stuff and the current cost of kennels being so high.
This isn't flying with a pet. This is your pet flying in a pets-only plane. I'd be concerned about the logistics.
The plane they show (presumably their best) is a turboprop. That's shorter range and slower than a jet. If you're flying somewhere and planning to drop your pet off when you get to the airport, even if you align departure times well, you might be waiting a couple hours for your pet to arrive on the other side.
While they appear to have a presence in the airport terminal (or strongly imply they do), I suspect there are still different logistics paths in loading and unloading the pets. Do they have to use cargo terminals?
Are there layovers on the pet's flight? On yours? What happens if one of the planes is delayed or the flight is completely canceled? There's not likely to be another Pet Airways plane sitting there as backup.
I can't imagine this would work at all without frequent traumatic experiences for the pets, where owners are separated for days at a time due to logistics breakdowns.

- The iPad experience is admittedly not as amazing as it could be, and something I'm excited to improve big time down the road. For now, the app should respect your dynamic type settings (in case you have your font set larger at the iOS level)
- Yep, there's a toggle you can access from your Profile Tab > Notifications
- Right now the offline experience is so-so but not perfectly optimized. If you refresh your Inbox right before a flight your recent posts should be cached nicely and readable while offline.
Love this! Current user of Notion (structured planning + sharing), Bear (small on the go notes (mobile mainly), Roam (work + research notes), and Noteshelf (any written notes + sketches). Will be interesting to see if this can replace some of these. I'll write feedback here if I have any. :)
Ha yeah very valid question. Noteshelf is a plain sketch notepad on ipad so is distinct from the others.
Why Bear vs Notion - to pick Notion up and write a quick note isn't great. It's much more organized. Bear is better for this.
Why Notion vs Bear - Better for making structured organized notes, better sharability / collab, rich formatting options. I tend to use notion when I want to share notes or plans externally.
Why Roam vs Bear - Bear syncs via iCloud Drive. My work does not allow iCloud drive syncing. This means Bear's notes would be local which I don't want.
Why Roam vs Notion - This is probably the least justified. I wanted to try Roam again for work notes + research. I do really enjoy the bullet point simplicity and linking of Roam. But I know you could do this on Notion. However, once again I feel like there's more structure with Notion and it's less easy to jot down some simple bullet points.
Based upon your this, do you think there could be a universal app for you to replace them all (perhaps new functionality inside of one of the existing), or do the different use cases merit the separation?
What do none of them do that you wish they did? Does this scratch any of those itches?
This looks great. We’re very much fed up with collaborating on Jupyter notebooks. Sadly my team can’t use Deepnote yet because all our datastores are behind VPN. Is there a future where we could run Deepnote on our own AWS instances?
No self-hosted/own cloud options yet. At the moment, managing the hardware ourselves allows us to be more agile and iterate on the product faster. But definitely something we're considering for the future, thanks for the comment!
This font is amazing. It’s like the letters and words finally jump out rather than then blend into a mush. Having this on Kindle is a game changer. I’m still upset Pocket got rid of the font though. That was one of the main reasons I started using Pocket.
I made https://github.com/JuliaData/Strapping.jl, which is part of an ORM; i.e. it does the translating between Julia objects/vectors of objects and 2D tables. But it doesn't do some of the more "magical" things like SQL generation, automatic migrations, etc.
I think it'd be cool to do some of the SQL generation stuff, but no one has sat down to design something out and how it would work in Julia.
