This triggered memories I forgot I had. Thank you!

I wonder if we can get some UX folks to volunteer a day to review and write up improvement suggestions for various popular open source projects. I personally know bad UX when I see it, but I'm no expert on making good UX ;-)

wget is a download CLI tool. Handbrake is a video transcoder. I feel like I'm missing something, or just missed the joke lol.

This is incredible. How are you hosting all this? There's got to be considerable cost. Meanwhile, this is a genuinely great way to browse through all these files. Seriously impressive work.

I'd agree that the video is much more captivating. It's really an incredible and innovative piece of hardware. I am curious, did you ever arrange a meetup with Magnus?

Everybody's style is different, but for me, I silence... everything. Nothing dings. Nothing pops up. Not on my macbook, or my phone (Do Not Disturb, always), or even my microwave.
For Slack, I watch for a number in the red dot above its icon. Then I know I need to check it. For e-mail, sometimes e-mails just get by me. It's not usually a problem. For calendar, I have to keep a mental note of my next meeting. That is probably the biggest downside of this setup.

At the expense of missing some subset of posts, my default bookmark for HN filters out posts that have less than 100 points. It helps reduce the number of things I look into.

This is truly amazing. This is a shining example of what's possible with open(?) apis. I don't know what else to say. This is just awesome.

Dreamed?!? Well let me make your dreams come true. Have you heard of radio garden? I found a station for you in Nashville, Tennessee. That's a pretty great place to find good country music.
http://radio.garden/listen/103wkdf/S7xSIpaS - In Nashville
http://radio.garden/listen/want-fm-98-9/2I82DH2y - Nearby in Lebanon, TN
If you want the truly authentic experience, stick to stations that have their four letter code in the title (starts with a W), because those are 100% real FM radio stations. Enjoy the authentic country music experience. As you head toward the central US, you'll find more and more country music.

Mindustry is a serious bargain at $6. I just got into the game, and while it does stand on its own, it scratched the Factorio itch while I was away from my computer, as it runs on mobile (android). The maps I've seen so far are unique and interesting. I like the tower defense campaign. To me, combat in Mindustry is better than in Factorio. Would totally recommend.

Well my productivity just plummeted.
If the technology is browser-based, why are we being asked to sign up? What are we signing up for?
If the technology runs through third-party infrastructure, is the data e2e encrypted?
