What do you like best about Mem?- Smart pricing strategy: the unlimited notes and collections allows you to get a feel for the product before having to make a purchase decision. - Search is blazing fast. So is the experience when I select an item from the search results. It shows up before my eyes can even get down the screen to it. - The font they chose incorporates ligartures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.What do you dislike about Mem?- Lots of missing note-taking features. The biggest missing feature: there's no way to reorder lines in your notes by keyboard (including bullets and numbered lists). Among the many usecases for this, my biggest one is revising notes right after a meeting. Moving around lines and paragraphs is a critical part of the revision process when organizing the notes that I hastily typed out during a meeting. 1. Bear uses Cmd+Opt+up/down 2. Apple notes uses Cmd+Ctrl+up/down 3. Google docs uses Ctrl+Shift+up/down There hasn't been any movement on this fundamental note-taking feature since I requested it 2.5 years ago. - Reported bugs go unfixed for years. 2.5 years ago I reported a ton of bugs with the note-taking experience. None of them have been fixed yet. Here are three examples: 1. Numbered lists add a space when copy-pasting one list item onto another (what you have to do when you want to reorder list items in a numbered list). 2. Code blocks require an extra space after closing them. Then if you try to delete that space and continue typing, whatever you typed is also now part of the code block. 3. Bullets and numbered lists break after adding a non-bulleted or numbered element. Google Docs and Bear are able to handle this without any issue. The crazy thing is that even though they acknowledged all the bugs I reported 2.5 years ago, not a single one has been fixed. - The paid gimmicky AI marketing features do exactly what every other product these days AI features do... mimick the functionality of the free-to-use ChatGPT. It seems they care less about the note-taking essentials than the hot new trendy buzz features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you like best about Mem?Writing notes with AI is nice, and the product seems to function normally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.What do you dislike about Mem?Extremely poor customer service (especially from the co-founders). They don't respond to any of your emails, almost like the cadences they place new users are in are just for show. There's also a massive lack of API integrations - this product won't work well with any of your other existing platforms. The company mission also seems extremely lackluster and there's nothing that sets Mem apart from stronger competitors like Obsidian, ClickUp, Notion, and other companies like Constella do a better job of standing out in the crowd.

Show HN: Sub-millisecond VM sandboxes using CoW memory forking
I wanted to see how fast an isolated code sandbox could start if I never had to boot a fresh VM.<p>So instead of launching a new microVM per execution, I boot Firecracker once with Python and numpy already loaded, then snapshot the full VM state. Every execution after that creates a new KVM VM backe
