it would be even cooler if the blink duration, color, direction, etc were accurate!

I am so happy that I asked Codex to rewrite our website as Hugo templates which allowed us to statically host it and get rid of Wordpress. So much stress gone!

For what it's worth, we switched some of our actions to a self-hosted Woodpecker instance, and although there were a few kinks to iron out, it works better overall (for example, because of better caching on that single instance, our docker images build faster).

This comment made me curious is such a thing actually happens.

As it turns out "greenmailing" is a thing, but not from environmental groups. Here's what claude found for me:

<ai> The concern isn't baseless—there are documented cases of parties using environmental law as leverage, particularly California's CEQA. But empirical studies show only ~13% of such lawsuits actually come from environmental groups; the majority come from labor unions, business competitors, and NIMBYs hijacking environmental review for unrelated purposes. In this specific case, WaterWatch has a 40-year track record on Oregon water issues and the concerns about fish habitat are supported by the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs—so the 'thinly veiled shakedown' framing doesn't really fit </ai>

I hope doing that research didn't spend too much water!

We're making crop insurance accessible to farmers worldwide. Our platform helps major insurers monitor 10M+ hectares across 10+ countries using satellite imagery and ML — so farmers can manage the volatility of their industry.

You'll build web & mobile apps that agronomists use daily in the field (offline-capable, rough conditions), work on data-heavy features cramming gigabytes into mobile apps, and help shape product decisions with real autonomy.

Stack: TypeScript, React/React Native, PostgreSQL/PostGIS, Python + GDAL/NumPy for satellite imagery processing.

Small remote-first team, wear multiple hats. Quarterly in-person meetups.

What about Switzerland? Although not in the EU, it often inherits such regulation

This is a topic that I've long debated about myself, switching from vegetable oil to coconut oil and then back to HOLL rapeseed oil.

I'm sure this will be a contentious topic among the HN crowd, I'm looking forward to the comments.

This seems like an advertisement for that person's company.

It’s interesting that the author thinks that the value of the shares is higher than the preferred price, even though employees typically hold common shares, meaning they get wiped out in most scenarios except best case. The expected (best case) growth is not an argument in favor of a 4x multiple on price. The chance of achieving that is baked into the price

We really liked the idea of our kids being able to select what music they want to listen to, without having to look at a screen.

So we bought them a cassette/CD player from Sony for €100.

The idea that you’d buy a speaker with super expensive and proprietary figurines is a bit crazy to me.
