Valid point.

I feel like Washington state doesn’t get enough credit. 72%+ from renewables and water reservoirs are the original grid scale battery.

It’s great to see that Mitmproxy is still being developed - it indirectly made my career. Back in 2011, I was using it to learn API development by intercepting mobile app requests …

I worked on Turbotax as a co-op back in 2009/10 so things have definitely changed but two things stood out to me. First, there were two “peaks” one around January 19th (when the fi…

Blasphemy

I'm in the same camp. I think a lot of these anti-k8s articles are written by software developers who haven't really been exposed to the world of SRE and mostly think in terms of w…

Are you sure about this? I thought the limit across the board was 10 years.

28s in the promo video.

For anyone looking for a new keyboard with custom key maps, I’d really recommend the Kinesis advantage. I switched to it 8 years ago to fend off carpal tunnel after my old keyboard…

I grew up in Cleveland and since moving out every city I've lived in has had an issue with gentrification (Boston, NYC, SF, Portland). While I empathize with the individuals affect…

Shameless plug: If you're interested in the art market and factors which affect price/value, I work for Arthena (YC W17) and we're hiring for a variety of roles. If you're interest…

Not to take away from your point but 0.01% of 164k is ~17. Edit: I didn't want to be a jerk so I decided to look it up. Looks like NYT[1] has the number at 0.6% (probably higher in…

Not a super hip site but boondockerswelcome.com has been around for a while. It seems mostly targeted toward the boomer/florida snowbird crowd.

I had a stint of about six months when I lived in a camper and worked full-time as an engineer. I was amazed at the kinds of places I could get away with staying for free (coast in…

I’ve been using Postico ( https://eggerapps.at/postico ) on OSX for the last few years and been enjoying it: clean look, ability to edit and explore schemas, ability to export resu…

A little bit of a shameless plug but for anyone interested in the intersection of art and tech, Arthena (YC W17) is hiring software engineers and data scientists. https://angel.co/…

I had a similar disposition but my desires recently changed. My family moved to the US when I was ten and growing up I lacked a sense of permanence/place and carried the idea that …

After moving to the Columbia Gorge I became fascinated with the dams and energy production on the Columbia. Over the last 75ish years the whole river has been turned into a battery…

* My parents leaving Romania for the US (on the Greencard lottery) when I was 10. * Leaving a large company to work on a product I believed in (Airbnb 2012). * Not paying too much …

Is there/would y'all be interested in a mini HN reader meetup? Perhaps over beer in Hood River? I settled in White Salmon late last year due to its proximity to outdoor activities …

Whoah, another Hacker News reader from Bingen/White Salmon?

I didn't own that much to begin with but I sold what I didn't need, and put everything else in a friend's garage. Oddly (but in line with what most digital nomads seem to experienc…

Most your points resonate with me but in my experience a large part of it has to do with perspective. I [believe] I'm in the latter stages of burnout and while very anxiety-inducin…

I tried something similar this past summer while traveling through Europe/Turkey and found that the hardest part freelancing (beyond the difference in time zones) was finding stabl…
