    Agree with all of this. As a single parent though it’s hard to find the free time - for me, only during school hours (work time) or if I explicitly arrange child care, which is rar…

    Software, cycling and pizza. Some of my favorite things in life. This project and write-up was thoroughly enjoyed, and has inspired some of my own similar ideas now! Cheers

    I’d love to hear what the inspiration for this was. Maybe just a code golf project for fun, but based on the author’s last blog post, something tells me the iceberg of inspiration …

    This is very cool. What does VS Code provide here? The I/O + preview foundational capability? Could you install this as a plug-in to your desktop vs code instance?

    This is one of the coolest things I've seen on HN. I am definitely going to try to follow the instructions on this in the near future! I don't even play saxophone, but now I am not…

    Try horizon workroooms. To me, immersed is like Linux - tons of options, more features, but it’s a bit trickier to set up just right and things seem to not stay right, it takes con…

    I question if any of these other commenters have actually tried the Quest Pro yet and specifically with 1) Horizon Workrooms and 2) a mac and 3) a supported tracked keyboard from a…

    So, interesting stuff! I had my installation appointment, the guy came out and proceeded to tell me that the 5k plan would be useless to me. I asked why - apparently switches have …

    Same thing happened to me about 5 months ago. I ended up email the CEO. Had an executive relations staffer email me back within minutes, and I had my number back within about a day…

    Saw your comment, went to my ATT internet account, and just upgraded from 1k to 5k! I’m so happy, thanks!

    assuming ssh and not scp, replacing traditional ssh with mosh in this setup could prove for some interesting benefits wrt network dependency. If the connection was less brittle, an…

    Native mobile apps could arguably be considered “frontend” such that they are the client the user uses to interface with your backend. Frontend !== “web”. I would say this is where…

    4 words - “what is your budget?” If they hesitate, just ask them for a ballpark - “1k, 10k, 50k, 250k” (usually start this at the lowest you’re willing to go for a project because …

    This doesn’t really address the point. As I said above, yes cash and crypto have this same flaw, they are useless without the ability to trade it. What is a dollar good for? Wrappi…
