Also- is graphQL useful for non-social products?

> It’s pretty clear all of the advantages we can possibly have in the S.F. tech scene. But what about the techies that don’t have it all? No one talks about the lack of privilege for black men and women, or for women in general. What about the people who went to state school for undergrad and never went to grad school? And the people who didn’t get into YC and are trying to raise money?

I can empathize with this point. Coming from a state school, and parents who don't have a ton of money, I've found it challenging to break into a better paying job. I'm doing an internship with a pretty decent company. They are a giant bank, and our application is used by tens of millions & the work is enjoyable. However, just today I spoke with a new hire, and he only makes $85,000/yr. I am unsure if I should look for full-time work in another city like Raleigh, NC, where $85,000 would not seem like a compromise. I am just worried I won't be able to find as good of people to work with/ as interesting of work.

I would love to get into a startup, but found all of the interviews I had at smaller companies to end with, "We do not feel you would be a good cultural fit." I am unsure if the solution is to just be less ambitious, and settle for what I have worked for.

HN is a bit intuitive how they control emails. I added my email to the box marked 'email' and expected it to show up. Looks like you have to explicitly add it to your 'about' box. Should be there now.

Thought I just added it?

Shoot me some sort of message if you are trying to sell the xps 13.

How complex is an edge detection algorithm?

The algorithm dosent need to be too complex. You basically look at each still frame as grayscale, generate a hashtable of brightness values mapping to monospaced characters, and convert each grayscale pixel to a character.
