   I haven't tried the product but looks interesting. I've actually been looking into nixos to generate docker containers after that repl post the other day. Aside from the software itself I wanted to compliment you on this image. h

   I have seen SAAS's on microaquire listed with no customers. In fact I've seen them listed with no customers and no product! Who knows if those sell though. Worth at least investigating. Another option would be to pivot what you&#x

   I've never tried it but I've always been curious about MatterMost. It's an open source slack knock off. I believe they even have some API integration with other services the way slack does.

   Thats pretty cool. A friend of mine is pretty artistic and I've mentioned NFT's to her before. Any tips on how one might get started as an artist making them? I've heard a bit about Solana nft's having much lower transac

   I think it depends on the person or the stream but I can tell you why I watch. Occasionally I'll tune in for a big game and watch it the way people do sports, especially if my favorite team happens to be playing. More often though, it

   I wouldn't say it's a scam exactly so much a high pressure sales. Take a look next time you're at a funeral home or on a used car lot. Essentially the same cast of characters. Unethical but legal. Depends on your definition o

   I'm not sure if it would apply to your model but aparently there are open source firmware projects for some LG tvs now. I learned about it in this thread. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29338658

    I mostly stopped using caffeine and alcohol. I find that while I used to stay up till 2am left to my own devices, I now naturally fall asleep very early and wake up very early with quite a bit of energy. That was just my experience though,

    Close, but it will actually turn out to be a very small company (possibly in less than a decade). Hollywood has little awareness of just how much danger the legacy version of their industry is in. ML generated assets are slowly creeping tow

    I think in your case there is an incredibly specific and practical way to solve this problem. Books and online courses. You already have great hands on skills. If you have the attention span for it you can improve your overall model of the

    If you started asking companies if they use the free or paid version you might be surprised to find how few use the free version. I'm sure there are some that use the open source version and do their own support but generally large ent

    May I suggest that if there is a book you've always wanted to read now might be a time you could really enjoy it!

    The first time I did it the startup I was working for was drying up and blowing away so I decided that was a good time to start my own startup. I figured it would take a couple months. That was a spectacular failure where I realized that mo

    As an engineer you're probably comfortable using the open source version indefinitely. However once a VP hears about free software being used they'll move quickly to make sure a few million dollars are spent so that everyone can a

    I think ideally you would want something lower tech than that. Maybe some kind of mechanical counter that increments up one click each time the lid is closed on it.

    Not every post or comment, but generally yes. I'm very happy this place exists. There was another site I used to hang out on years ago called hackthissite.org. Sometimes HN reminds me a bit of that, or old chat rooms. I just like hangi

    There is a snarky saying at one of the large tech companies that goes something like "I don't know how to count that low." When you're facing off against large companies as a smaller player this is one of the tricks you

    NFTs seem pretty plausible to me. The numbers are surprising but to me it feels like a fairly natural progression. Have you ever played a game like counter-strike? They have these cosmetic skins you can buy for your weapons. People wind up

    One of the best hackers I ever worked with turned me onto this method. Use a flat text in the editor of your choice. Search as needed. Tags work because you can seach them. You delimit each section as a note. I do it like this --- Next note

    I enjoy Graeber's work including Debt: a 5000 year history, but I know that feeling you mean of the book leaving you with more questions than answers. If you haven't read it you might enjoy Capital in the 21st Century by Thomas Pi
