Great story about going on the photo shoot with the pro. I too have done the bathroom darkroom, as well as a basement darkroom. Most will be surprised to learn that a darkroom for making prints doesn't need to be all that light tight

There was something unique about cameras made in the US. Not as elegant as their German or Japanese counterparts. Very robust and industrial.

You should buy a roll for it. Black and white is probably the best choice for the lens it has. Try a roll of HP5 or TX400. If there are no local photo labs there are plenty that you can mail film to for processing. You might discover so

This is the camera that sparked my interest in rangefinder cameras. My Grandpa mentioned one day how much he used to want an Argus C3 but never got one. I had no idea what it was or why it was special. I looked it up and discovered it wa

It is difficult to offer a reply to this comment because it is hard to tell what the intent is. It reads tongue in cheek to me. I apologize if that is not the case. The work you are describing is difficult, but that doesn't mean that

It's entirely likely they do. However, the work done farming serves a different purpose than strength training. Farming requires the strength and endurance to do the work day after day, but there is no particular emphasis on strength

While building things is great, it isn't a substitute for weight training. If you are training for strength there is no substitute for progressive overload with barbell weights. The best part is that it isn't a tremendous time

One point that the paper does cover is what states in the United States have the greatest rates of obesity. These states are those situated between the Rocky Mountains and Appalachian mountains. Particularly those along the Mississippi ri

Interesting. My dad worked for Montgomery Wards in a warehouse and has lots of stories about Montgomery Wards setting up various traps to tempt employees to steal. Usually it was something like leaving high priced jewelry in a seemingly u

I agree that setting up a project can be challenging. Luminus at least makes things easier by generating the project boilerplate you need to get started.

Personally, I really enjoy working with Clojure+ClojureScript via the Luminus framework. The Caveman framework for Common Lisp is also fun. It might be my first choice if I planned to make a web app with very little JavaScript.

I think the Switch gets this type of handheld play right by having detachable controllers. I never use my Switch with the controllers attached to the side. Instead I use a separate pro controller when playing handheld mode. Maybe this do

I highly recommend the Kinesis Advantage2 keyboard. I was experiencing shoulder, forearm, and wrist pain with almost every other keyboard I tried. It's expensive and takes some getting used to, but I have not had shoulder, forearm, w

I think Godot is a good choice for something like this. HTML5 exports are easy to do.

Out of curiosity, what did you use to make the all hands simulator?

Awesome, I'm definitely keeping an eye on this project.

I understand what you are trying to say regarding macros and I think you are correct that many probably do not define their own macros and happily use the language as is. However, I think if macros are disabled everyone will notice right a

I think this is a great idea. I can see the DSL being very useful for situations where you want to think about hypotheticals. My main piece of feedback is that you should consider supporting the ability to feed in your existing k8s manife

The headline seems a bit hyperbolic after reading the article. The bar chart has the caption Accurate prediction of Kubernetes costs is a challenge . However, the chart shows that one in five respondents represented in the data don'

I had a similar thing happen to me a little over a year a go. The offer wasn't rescinded, but I received a text message the day before my start date informing me that my start date was delayed (due to Covid). It was very frustrating

The pandemic has also made moonlighting more universal and more people looking for remote/part-time/fractional work. These are all lumped together here, but they aren't the same things. Moonlighting is something you do in

I guess it would be helpful to understand what your expectations of the technology are as well as providing a few more details. What you are describing doesn't sound crazy to me assuming selecting a cluster to deploy to is a one time

Yeah, absolutely. I went from account manager at a software company to software engineer. It was worth the stress I had to go through to get there and greatly improved my income and employment prospects. I wish I had known it was what I

I bought a used Herman Miller Mirra for $350 at the start of the pandemic. I wanted to find an Aeron but supplies were short at the time. It's better than most chairs employers have provided me in the past. Look for an office furnit

When interest rates were high in the 1980s my Grandmother and her brother bought a house by purchasing savings bonds. She worked part time and already owned two houses. It was much easier as far as I can tell. On the flip side, my Grandpa

Well, I guess I'll take down the DO referral link on my website and maybe consider moving everything back to Linode. I don't have anywhere near the referrals you do, but if all of my pending referrals went through I don't th

This looks very nice. Most importantly, the profile isn't too high. I have a Keychron K6 and Vortexgear Pok3r. The Pok3r is about right even though it is a little taller than this keyboard. The K6 is far too tall to be comfortable.

The author says one of the selling points of JWT is scale, and points out many will not need to concern themselves with scale and to stick with simple solutions. But I am curious to know if any on HN is using session cookies at scale and h

The improvements described look great to me. Some are advocating for PlatformIO, but I still reach for the Arduino IDE even though I usually prefer vim or CLI tools. It's convenient and tutorials frequently assume you'll use the
