My steam deck is underpowered as a living room gaming PC. Wish it was cheaper but would look forward to a “just works” experience including sleep/instant game resume. Add my thousands of already owned Steam games and it makes me excite

Would be cool to see integration with something like Upright Go or other sensors you place on your back that detect tilt etc.

I'm coding up a webapp with this exact login process - the issue I've found is on mobile phones - apps like gmail won't let you copy the link into a browser without a preview. The preview consumes the link. (next.js auth) It&

After failing to add my new credit card to my business Instagram account - it's locked me out. The "request review" form doesn't work on their page. Fun times. I'm literally trying to give them money.

Wow, super inspiring. I've coming up on a crossroads where I'm considering leaving my high-paid low-pressure cushy remote job at some big tech company to chase some silly ideas I have. The timing feels right - but I can't hel

I was just thinking about trying to incorporate an LLC for a side project. I'm also a remote employee for a U.S. company working in another country. Seems like a bad time all around.

This gave me a good chuckle. Obviously titles mean different things at different places but my god my accomplishments as a "Senior Software Engineer" title pales in comparison to what Dustin has built here. Kudos to him and it ins

Yes, I've been using this since I moved overseas. Works great, was able to add NextDNS for ad blocking. I still find some websites will block you as your traffic will be originating from a datacenter (if going cloud option like me), bu

I’ve always been quite mediocre at reading and writing. This has been confirmed by my grades over the years. Just this week, I’ve been writing a script for a YouTube video and it is difficult for me. Organizing my thoughts and making it “se

Looks nice I probably will pick it up - any thought about adding a "filler" word detection/removal such as "umms" and "ahhs"?

Been using Hide My Email from Apple’s iCloud and I’ve been really loving it! Semi permanent fake addresses ending in @icloud.com that forward to my gmail address. Apple is also one of the few companies I’d probably trust to the task. Wish i

How difficult would it be to use interchangeable/hot-swappable batteries? Stations could just be constantly charging banks of batteries. Would make refueling much faster. Also could make repairs easier as you could take batteries out o

Yea that’s been a problem for me when I don’t use my personal Apple account on my work laptop.

I’m unlikely to buy a foldable laptop, but a foldable monitor while traveling sounds kinda nice. I’m working from a hotel right now, so I can easily imagine it. Folding flat would offer protection from scratches in a bag/backpack and t

Yes, curious if the Taskflow API introduced as part of Airflow 2.0 reduces this pain. It appears much easier/saner than working with XCOMs directly - less coupling and removes the need for lots of boilerplate code.

100%. Interoperability is the complexity. You’ll find old popular devices for example that are slightly different in behavior to the “norm”. It could be straight up incorrect behavior or maybe something more subtle. Do you drop support for

Great to know, so far I’ve been able to still receive SMS 2FA messages but it’s only been a couple of days since porting.

It’s probably trivial for the average HN reader, the key is to do it before you move. Otherwise it can be difficult since Google Voice is not available in most countries. (Will need a VPN). FYI iMessage is real wonky that I’ve removed my ph

As someone who’s moving overseas shortly, changing/removing your number is a nightmare. It really is the primary UID. So many things use it for 2FA. In a lot of cases you HAVE to list a phone number. I ported my number to Google Voice

I’ve only used resolve a handful of times but it’s fantastic. Also pretty sure you get a lot of features in the free version of Resolve… it was more than capable for my needs.

So interesting, a lot of comments seem to be negative experiences. I haven’t used Airflow at scale yet but would love to convert our extremely limited, internally built orchestrator + jobs over to Airflow. I think it would allow us TO scale
