This is really cool. It's little things like this that keep me coming back to HN. I can't justify the cost of Kagi yet based on my current use, but I'm glad that people are out there building things like this. Thanks for your

There are a few types of toys that my wife and I are still ok with getting and Lego is one of them. She's started using the phrase "more really is more" to describe the category. Basically, it's systems where you build s

Yes! I've run out of ways to tell MY parents not to get toys for my kids for Christmas/birthdays. I can ask directly for no physical things; I can suggest tickets to shows or evens, memberships to museums or zoos, etc; I can point

Funny to me that how... #00FF00 is Lime... what we actually refer as Green in daily life is close to #008000 And that "limegreen" (#32CD32) is a third, distinct color name.

Yeah, I'm 34, and they gave me an On-X valve which seems to be the most current tech in use on the mechanical valve market. The most urgent need was actually to remodel my ascending aorta (complications caused by the BAV), and their ho

I'm 34. I never experienced any symptoms as far as I was aware although they include things like fatigue, so was that my BAV or just the fact that I've just had a long, active day? My cardiologist noticed at my last annual exam th

I'm a little over 2 months post-op after replacing my bicuspid aortic valve (more common and not as serious as what these four kids have). Growing up, I always enjoyed seeing the EKG printouts and listening to (and watching) the echoca

To me, the show's nature completely changed when Stephen Moffat took over. I really enjoyed the Ponds' story arc, but it felt like Moffat had just thrown out all of the other characters and stories that I'd grown to love befo

Classification of musical instruments into these sorts of categories gets tricky in some areas (especially with regard to percussion). Really, the percussion and keyboard categories (when people acknowledge them) kind of become weird catcha

This is actually the biggest problem with my current home printer. My wife or I will print something after installing brand new ink cartridges. Then a month or two later, we try to print something again. The printer acts like it's prin

My wife is a quilter and has mentioned the same thing. It's hard to sell a bed-sized quilt for $1200+ when people don't understand the work that goes into it (and even the materials are more expensive than I would have guessed). S

I've had to put my side gig (building guitars) on hold. My wife and I both have day jobs, and we have a two year old. We take turns working and parenting, and it's not unusual for one or both of us to be up till 2 AM finishing wor

The version of Firefox I'm on right now does. Most of the current URL is a light gray, while the "ycombinator.com" portion is white which gives much more contrast against the dark gray background of the URL bar. (I'm usi

When did support for the APUs get added to the kernel? My wife got fed up with Windows a couple of years ago, and I tried to set up a dual boot on her HP laptop, but Ubuntu wouldn't display anything above 800x600. The best I could tell
