Recently, I have come across some interesting developments in the e-ink space. Although I haven't had the opportunity to test DASUNG monitors myself, but I read positive reviews. It is impressive, these monitors have extremely fast ref

After I completed the project, I made a somewhat lighthearted personal vow to try to design a custom PCB next time I fall down the rabbit hole of hardware tinkering. I suspect, these days it is a commodity skills, and curious if you happen

Exactly! The device is approximately 12mm thick. I will upload a side shot shortly. I appreciate you bringing this up, it's an excellent point! To be honest, it is still a bit thicker than I had initially hoped for; however, when I wei

I should have been more clear, thanks for correcting me! Apple Script does indeed work, and there are some limitations to be aware of. Some of them I explained in the article. For example, all images are encoded as base64 strings (which is

Hi. This is a passion project I have been tinkering around with for fun over weekends. I thought it would be crazy to use Apple Notes as a site generator, but I did it anyway. There is no SDK/API to access notes programmatically, so I

Ah, good memories. My tipping point was when I watched Krystian’s video “We Are All Game Beginners” [0]. It helped me embrace and acknowledge difficulties that one has to overcome to begin and finish a game, no matter how big or small it is

Technically speaking you are right. If you are not limited to AWS, then even a $5 DigitalOcean instance is be able to host 4-5 VMs.

I guess, your mind is set already. My thought process though that Pico-8 is roughly the same price as three cups of coffee. However, it is a way to say Thank you, Zep and support the future development of the platform. Some interesting thin

If I understand your question, it is not mutually exclusive, and there are physical devices that can run Pico-8, for instance, GameShell and RaspiBoy. Certainly, you can build your custom device. Still, it is sort of derailing the original

Pico-8 is love. I recently started working on a tiny game, and I appreciate the limitations of the platform. No more scope creep, i.e. if it is getting bigger than what Pico-8 can support, perhaps I am not thinking straight and focusing on

I have been doing software development for over 15 years, and I thought that I could apply some of my skills in another dev domain for fun. This time I wanted to try something different, and I started working on a tiny 1-bit retro game. I h

Hi HN. Over the last week, I was working on a playground that could run practical and recreational languages in a browser. To a certain extent, it is a follow-up to a recent (and much upvoted) HN post about one famous company trying to kill

I wrote down my experience in this post about a year and a half ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21929194 . It is still very relevant. As a follow-up, I find myself using the phone less and less. For instance, today

Thanks! On a technical side, do you run the whole application in the main thread of a web worker. I wonder whether you considered using service workers for the faster boot up?
