I noticed that there seems to be a 3-6 month reset of my dopamine baseline after stopping stimulant meds, so things like emotional modulation, eating impulses, motivation, and even digestion took a bit to return to something I'd consid

I understand the cheekiness of this comment, but reproduction in many societies has indeed become more difficult for many of the same reasons (among several others). The sex hormones that orchestrate lactation and mother-child bonding are l

This is great! But what are the alternatives to using MS Kinect as the capture now that it's been EOL?

There used to be a exact clone of HN for finance called Quant.ly but this is now some trading tool and i can’t even find evidence of it in the wayback machine on internet archive. Time for a new one, perhaps?

There are a few big ones out there. For example, one of them made Mike Bloomberg a billionaire.

True to HN form the proposed remedies tend to be technical in nature (though not necessarily wrong). This is another one of those problems best rectified with legal protections, not blog posts about how to disconnect the antennas. At the st

Edit 2: According to the child comment this was just a TIL blog post. Thanks for the clarity. Original comment: I was prepared for a story time about a legal issue Ente is facing, and since they don’t mention one I now have more questions t

This comment proves the author’s thesis, which is “The culture is ageist so you probably won’t stand out using the same skills as the newer devs or companies. Find an obscure, unsexy, perhaps almost obsolete niche and specialize because the

Are you asking if Java is unfashionable enough for it to be seen as a legacy niche- like COBOL or 4GL? Just because it’s out of fashion doesn’t mean isn’t crowded…

I’m re-reading this post now and Wow(!) does that Tiger Capital link resonate differently today (it lost $20 Billion, nearly half it’s value, from Dec-Mar 2022)

True. But I think one can avoid the credibility damage presenting or appearing poorly over time can cause with just a little thought about audio and lighting etc. There are gains to be had simply by being seen and heard better even if there

Agree! It took time to learn how to do this effectively while remaining mobile/nomadic, and it forced me to decide what meetings are worth it which ones aren’t. For all of the gear I have (as a filmmaker…) I fall back to using an iPad

Sony cameras work (as mentioned below) but nearly every mirrorless or dslr I’ve used does this by default or can be set up to by switching to continuous AF modes. This is best done while connected to a power source, as the motors drain batt

Not quite $100 but I see the aging yet highly-regarded, video-centric Panasonic GH4 sold used for as little as $200 without a lens. This is the camera many small-midsize video production outfits have stuck to for a >decade. There are man

Camo does support portrait mode, but I think it’s a paid feature included with the “Pro” version on iOS.

I second this! I’ve been using one of these as well, and I’ve noticed the positive impact looking directly at the camera can have on my conversations.

Yes, that is a gotcha, as some of the cheaper or older camera models have no HDMI out or the require proprietary conversion with a vendor driver. I haven’t run into this often myself yet since most people I know have been buying newer and m

One thing that I’ve been trying to educate my colleagues about (including the A/V folks!) is that one can bypass the need to fiddle with drivers by using a generic hardware HDMI -> USB video conversion stick utilizing the mirrorless

I’ve solved most compatibility problems with several camera brands (and their drivers) by simply using a hardware HDMI->USB video capture/processing card or stick. Then I can mount it as a generic video device and not install driver
