I noticed this when it was first announced on HN as well. Hoping to give it a try as well shortly.

Hey Alex! Just wanted to say I came across Slicer three or so months ago, researching automatic provisioning for RPis (and other devices in the homelab). It piqued my interest, as I was also researching solutions for partitioning and distr

It is possible to exist in both camps. The quality of the process affects the quality of the product, and the quality of your thought affects the quality of the process. It's a cycle of continual learning, and from that perspective,

The company cares about neither. People inside the company will care about a great many things. The people who care about users either don't have the power to act or no longer care enough to do so. If the company was trying to extrac

Quality is 2nd best to what ? And people haven't switched to what ? Android? The situation is no better on Google OS. Apple's App Store ad initiatives have always been woeful, and doubt it makes enough revenue to warrant a separ

When you mentioned offline sync and graft, I mistook you for the author of this project: https://github.com/orbitinghail/graft However, they're clearly two different projects. I don't want to take away from t

It was specifically for the M1 mac minis, so not too fussed about everything else, but judging from the comments, experiences are mixed. I'll try to sign up again in a week or two.

I won't comment on the reliability of their services, as I've not experienced it. I was signing up specifically to provision a M1 mac mini, and couldn't navigate it. It was unfortunate, but worth a comment, in case others e

I was interested in provisioning one of these a few months back through Scaleway, but couldn't navigate their sign-up process without it dumping me back to the start everytime. Nor did I receive a reply when I e-mailed their support e

I don't think wpa_supplicant.conf has been used for sometime, as they moved to cloud-init for bootstrapping. It requires the network-config file instead, the format of which is documented on the cloud-init documentation page.

What were some of the technical challenges you experienced while reverse-engineering the wallpaper system? I've been reverse-engineering (for lack of a better term) some of macOS' and Xcode's poorly-documented functionality p

Cool project! This article is yet another reminder I need to learn Haskell (I've been meaning to for a decade), although the code from this article is approachable considering the topic. However, I've just started using Rust for

Ignoring its negative connotation, it's more likely to be a highly advanced "stochastic parrot". > "You don't do that without some kind of working internal model of mathematics." This is speculation at best.

Swift evolution and governance is open and publicly documented. It will always be dominated by Apple engineers, but the evolution of the language is largely orthogonal to Apple's OS releases. I'm not sure how much of the standard

My understanding of CVE is superficial at best. I thought it was just an acronym publicly identifying vulnerabilities; I didn't realise there was a political structure behind it all. While the article presents good food for thought, c

This is fascinating, but I don't know enough biology to understand the concepts at play. Could someone knowledgeable in the field explain it further?

I may have come across your app before in passing, but hadn't checked it out. I playtested aspects of a "productivity system" ( grain of salt ) with paper earlier this year. "Spontaneous productivity" mirrors some

I hadn't seen Toca Boca. My friend's niece plays on Everskies, which I believe is something similar.

I didn't intend for what I wrote to be a criticism; that's on me. I just found it funny the most interesting step was akin to "... and now you've drawn the animal", if you understand the reference.

This is cool, but the most interesting part is the part that requires investigation, i.e., what do the compatibility tools write to the card to make it iOS-compatible? I've done some work with iOS NFC, but not enough to have experience

This is what I was thinking, but stated much clearer than I'd have managed.

Thanks for that, it looks like my research today is cut out for me.

I'd been researching Kalman filters to smooth out some sampling values (working on mobile: anything from accelerometer values to voice activation detection), but hadn't got around to revising the mathematics, so I appreciate the e

Congratulations! Pardon my ignorance, as my understanding of mathematics at this level is beyond rusty, but what are the applications of this kind of functionality?

Irrespective of the quality of the product, you shouldn't be using obvious sock puppet accounts to try and boost your post.

> The fact that trauma is now everywhere sort of de-legitimizes it to the point where there's no way of knowing in the average case. I can tell you that trauma is very real for the person experiencing it, and it's this kind of

You might think it's getting by, but you've got no idea of how much damage this attitude unwittingly propagates the trauma on succeeding generations. I've seen this firsthand in my own family, a family beset with undiagnosed

It depends on your product, and what you expect your customer to do with the results. * What does the product actually do? * What do they get for a "use"? * If the usage-based pricing is an add-on, what value does the prod

I don't think there's an issue. Discourse on HN can be daunting for anyone. Sometimes it helps to know there are people your own age doing cool things. It makes it more accessible, which is a good thing.

I was diagnosed with Stage 3 rectal cancer in 2017, and a doctor doing a research study told me incidence for people under 50 had risen 20% in a decade. I imagine diet plays a significant role, insofar that our diets have changed dramatica
