cicloid··on Show HN: Mux Video, a simple API to powerful video streaming
This may be a dumb question, but would you describe the product as an alternative to something like Wistia? How does it compare to it?

And now we have JSX
cicloid··on Tmux and Vim – better together
Stow is probably the simplest way to do it. The only weird thing is the directory structure I have with `.` prefixes in order to be linked as I want them inside my home.

Besides that, I don't see how a better way to do it.

cicloid··on Building a r/place in a weekend
Did you consider using Docker for the provisioning of Kafka?

A couple of days ago I remember reading how difficult was to deploy Oracle on Linux and how Docker made this a breeze. I wonder if Kafka would also fall onto the same premise.

cicloid··on YC Annual Letter 2017
Probably a very discreet security detail. Not all of them need to be man or have the same haircut.
cicloid··on Ghostery is Acquired by Cliqz
So, is this a good thing? Should I worry? While Mozilla is presented as a shareholder of Cliqz. It appears to be a minority shareholder and the majority shareholder seems to be a media company, for a Ad/Privacy blocker... I'm not sure how to feel about it.
cicloid··on Ask HN: What device do you use to read academic papers with?
Off topic: I expected to see more iPad instead of laptop as a response.

Would the reason be economical, information density (more real state on a modern laptop/desktop) or something else?

cicloid··on Hans Rosling has died
What a loss! Seeing his TED talks did make an impact on me. He truly was an inspiring person.
cicloid··on Ask HN: Do you carry a backpack? Which one?
The Côte & Ciel Isar Rucksack.

I've been using this daily, traveling abroad and short commutes for the last 3 years and still looks like new and even been complimented by the design which is weird for a backpack.

So basically what a Sonos does, as a standard.
cicloid··on Copywrongs 2.0: Prevent EU copyright reform from breaking the internet [video]
Expect a Gundam/The Expanse type of conflict
cicloid··on Windows on New Macbook Pro Permanently Damages Speaker Due to Poor Drivers
Do you feel those are issues with the hardware or iOS?

For me the hardware feels solid. But I see the rough edges on iOS.

Did they take out the site? Points to a 404 page.

Blame someone milking the property for profits...

I prefer series where they stop airing the series for a year to continue production

cicloid··on Docker for Mac and Windows Beta
I think this was related with a kernel bug which was fixed with the latest release from OSX (released yesterday).

I personally discovered this bug while using dlite, which uses xhyve behind the scenes.

email: hello@gustavobarron.com

I only listed my preferred technologies as of now. But consider me a full stack developer with over 10 years of experience, going from plumbing in the backend to frontend. To be honest I would love to work more on iOS with Swift. But still willing to go and do devops/backend stuff.

cicloid··on Raspberry Pi 3 Model B confirmed, with onboard BT LE and WiFi

cicloid··on The Zappos Exodus Continues After a Radical Management Experiment
I'm more intrigued by the "Super Cloud". How different is it from the consumer AWS?
cicloid··on How to Become a Good Theoretical Physicist
As a Philomath, this site is an oasis on the Internet. True, you may be able to grasp what this page tries to accomplish with enough determination.

But, someone sharing their knowledge and path in a no-nonsense approach, sure helps a lot.

Are there any other similar guides for other fields?

cicloid··on Tame() – bad kitty, no socket for you
