Anyone know/recommend any API schemas/standards for REST APIs that allow machines to discover their resources? For example I see OpenApi v3 mentioned here (which uses a yaml file to give context) and I am also familiar with NGSIv2

I use a crappy antenna and I get a few meters, without any amplification. If it was going further I would use attenuators or a cage. I have the SDR streaming satellite data for 5min and it then restarts and retransmitts again. That allows u

Its all fine until you have to explain to your loved ones how to read domains and the difference between an email link with random-server-name.paypal.com vs. www.paypal.random-name.com If we remove meta data like this from everyday browsing

Hidden because their marketing page, that was featured in HN multiple times in the last few days, was just showing off the new features with no mention of a forced price increase. By forced, I mean there is no way for a user to downgrade. T

I posted this because I just received an email from Dropbox that it will now be 119Euros (~135USD) instead of 99USD. And they give us more storage. Wow. We are 2 friends and we both have had Dropbox Plus, each for 99USD. Each of us uses aro

Here in HN you have to fight to read a WSJ article. WSJ articles are pure quality, and for you normal human, to lay eyes on that supreme piece of journalism, clicking "web" and playing with the referrer is not enough. Jokes aside,

I scared them a lot initially (run away from exes, read all the things, never press next without reading), told them to Google everything before asking and a little bit of shouting to them. Also did a lot of explaining to them of what the g

Thanks for sharing! Didn't know about this website. (Which is spot on describing 90% of the HN audience)

A few things that would be welcome - sudo for editing protected files (using nano to edit the hosts file in system32 for example) - Good copy/paste functionality, something robust, maybe like linux with the middle click or normal short

I switched from MacOS to Windows 10 recently and I have to say all my code and deploy scripts worked exactly the same way in WSL. Essentially I installed Dropbox and git, loaded the bashrc in WSL with some aliases and after that, the workfl

What is your skill set? Try and get to a sustainable position as soon as possible (stable monthly money for a roof and food. No drugs). Maybe it involves going to another area or a nearby country. Maybe it involves getting a shitty job for

I once went to an antenna tuning/design/factory for my startup's product and I told the guy there, I want an antenna to support X frequencies, this that dBs, good VSWR, hopefully achieve X kilometers range, etc etc. Two days

I think it this is normal. I remember early on I would watch videos and shitty tutorials about servers and libraries, but slowly you begin to seek and trust the spec/standard. But only when you are more advanced you can do that. As a b

I agree. This article has a hard paywall for me. Tried with google referrer (incognito or not) and with outline but that didnt work.

Absolutely, IEEE is also on the same boat, charging 20-40USD for a PDF to general public. Insane. It was great to access journals while at university, but there is so much knowledge out there behind paywalls that is literally holding humani

I used to be really sceptical about JSX, 1 extra transp. step, anorthodox use of xml in JS, etc. Having been using it for the past 3-4 years I think its an above agerage elegant solution when it comes to templating solutions.

Used to use Cygwin at work, where I was not allowed to use Linux, just Windows. Remember putting all the usr binaries (cat,ls,sed,etc.) in the windows path and it was great!

That's cool! Printing a hex file! :) We tried a similar method of playing audio from the browser when its actually serial data. I think there are a few arduino platforms doing this now and it works on PCs and phones. Yes, unfortunately

Of-course, the customer had to explicitly give permission (every time) for Chrome to access any HW device. Also the device had to be manually put into bootloader mode.

Similarly to WebBT, WebUSB has been god send for us.. We were able to allow customers to flash their units through their browser while logged in, and driver free in Mac, Linux and Android! If we could only get CDC serial port support as wel
