Hello Hacker News, I recently rebuilt my blog https://chris.lu to be static first, easy to maintain, and provide a great developer experience. While doing so, I also wrote a tutorial that can be found in my https://ch

I like it, worked well for the few tests I did, however the main form needs some small UX improvements, I chose a start airport and destination airport but then the search button was disabled, leaving me clueless about what field was not fi

I had similar thoughts, you don't need a permit to buy a gun but your kids need one if they want to fly their small toy drone, well that makes totally sense :D

As far as I'm aware of, Microsoft is not even trying to put their own services forward. For example neither Github nor Azure are the defaults in VSCode. Go to the source control section and use what ever source control tool you want, V

I thought the same, the article title is (deliberately) misleading by using the word "parts" instead of being clear and stating that some extensions that you can get from the store might not be opensource ... I had never heard of

I wish more people would actually use this to wrap their 5'000 lines of console output that they copy paste into a ticket when reporting a bug instead of using markdown "format as code" Also yes it is a "hack" and n

But it would be labelled as chicken coming from the US, this makes it easy enough to avoid!? Already today, I always read on the label to find out from what country the meat I'm about to buy comes, I always prefer local over imported a

We looked at both solutions, shorter days of lets say 6 hours or less days. For me personally fewer days is better, because I have a pretty long ride to work, so working a day less also removes two long travels. Also in my opinion no soluti

The startup I work for does this, I work 4 days a week, get paid 5. I love it, makes such a huge difference to have a 3 days weekend, lets you detach a lot more from work. I'm the CTO and have set up alerts that I get on my phone when

KNX is a standard not a brand, hence you can just say KNX costs 10 euro or 1000 euro. KNX via an adapter can control regular lights, at least on/off not sure about dimming. But KNX is best used with compatible lights, which means you n

I agree, the big difference between music streaming services and TV series or movies streaming services is that on every music streaming service you can find almost all the western mainstream songs by all the artists. For TV series/mo
