I think somebody has to do it. It's like backup, we don't think we'll need it much until we need it. Imagine if we as human had started preserving our knowledge since Ancient Greek (and…

Since we're on this topic, I want to ask a question: How do I play video files stored in my VPS to Chromecast? I want my mom to watch a video, from her TV, but I can't upload it to YouTube d…

As others have pointed out, this is "the norm", just like group projects in school, there must be at least someone who cares enough and will go extra length. In software projects, they…

In my previous comment ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28289339 ), I lamented how I missed the boat on BTC and ETH, and then somebody commented about NFT. I want to like NFT, b…

I'm curious how well can my PC handle emulated console games (esp. newer gens). Where can I get some ROMs? For research purpose, of course.

Hacker News, like any news aggregator, pops up new stuff all the time. The hardest part is keeping an open mind for jumping on early. Hard because 99% turn out to be dud anyway, not to mention our cro…

Maybe you can use generic usernames like freelancer01@mycorp.com and only change the display name e.g. Jim Smith <freelancer01@mycorp.com> in January, Sarah Lee <freelancer01@mycorp.com> i…

Would love to! I'm a dev, if it's open source, maybe I can help improve it. Btw I don't see anyway to reach you in your HN profile.

How do you approach your potential customers? I applaud your effort, I was in your shoes. But for your idea (SaaS for restaurants), your competitors probably hire an army of sales because restaurant o…

How about noise and crowdedness? Everything look (from the picture) so close together, if there are too many people and stuff, things will get messy. Not to mention when there are outdoor activities l…

What do people use this for? I mean beside creating another pirate bay (CIMMW, that's the only thing comes to mind when I see "torrent search engine").

Try clicking the speaker icon (to play audio) a few times, it's alternating the voice/accent/tone (I don't know the term).

Could someone share a practical/industrial use case for this? E.g. can I build a SaaS, or a mobile app?

Has anyone used Joplin ( https://joplinapp.org/ )? How does it compare to Obsidian? I've used Joplin for a while. It's Markdown so I like it. The UI is dry (compared to Everno…

I played pirated games when I was a kid (actually I didn't know it was pirated, I bought them off CD shops). Growing up with more money to spend, I bought legit copies of those games (and more) f…

when a "Senior DevOps" needs 2weeks+ to setup Jenkins, it's hard to trust that person.

Heck, even in my team who are mostly same level, I have some people whom I don't trust working from home, and some others whom I'm more than happy to give them WFH. (You might say, "If …

I think maybe because your family and coworkers live in WhatsApp, while your dodgy friends and "random" groups are in Telegram? That's my case :)

"instant games"... here I am 10 minutes down, the game is still loading at 11%

I'm thinking of using Postgres for a project, but a DBA friend told me operationally it's more challenging than MySQL. Unfortunately, he can't elaborate. Does anyone have real work expe…

I can't find this anywhere, maybe someone could help answer: 1. How much better is the performance? (In terms of compilation speed, and runtime) 2. Compatibility with Graal Native?

I wonder if digital entertainment (e.g. thousands of 1080p movies in a 10TB HDD) could make being there "bearable". You don't have to enjoy it alone, you have shipmates. Maybe even inte…
