clarkrinker··on Guy gives a negative review to Battlezone after playing 8k hours; He's right
No way to get more sniper ammo on the Nintendo 64 version very frustrating
clarkrinker··on The vagus nerve orchestrates the mind-body connection
I was looking for research papers for the 9 non invasive vagus stimulators I get ads for on instagram.

Anyone have success with these for anxiety/depression

Are you concerned about unforeseen consequences of your research -_-
clarkrinker··on Automerge: A library of data structures for building collaborative applications
yJS has the webrtc adapter and appears to still win out in the edit benchmarks. I’ve used yJS in two projects: once just for presence chat and syncing menus for a coaching site and once in a overlay graphics app for a livestream

Biggest problem with yJS for me has been the ergonomics when I use it with React. There’s a third party project called synced store that I used for the stream overlay but it has some strange behavior.

With first party support with React in automerge I think it’s worth a shot for my rewrite

clarkrinker··on Lobbyists begin chipping away at Biden’s $80B IRS overhaul
In my normal naiveté I thought "why don't we just buy Intuit"

Intuit market cap is $137bn. Greater than GE.

clarkrinker··on Show HN: Self-hosted CMS on serverless Cloudflare
Nice setup! I've been following Vercel and Cloudflare trying to sync up their v8 isolates runtime: CF is going to be a great option for running these "Edge Style" React apps once stuff stabilizes.
clarkrinker··on Federal Reserve to increase interest rates by 75 basis points for the third time
I was wondering why they don't move the interest rate up continuously over a period instead of flat jumps. Is the shock of jumping up in one day useful economically? That would be slightly confusing, because it seems like I'm always reading that the market has already priced in changes to the interest rate by the time the announcement comes out.

Welp like 500 people are on this box now running calls to stat so it's slowing down a bit
clarkrinker··on Saving the shuttle simulator–“It was an artifact that needed to be preserved”
Tried to land the 3rd party Shuttle sim at the Air and Space museum in Seattle this weekend. Glide ratio of 4.5/1 it's just falling out of the sky.

Crashed it like nine times

clarkrinker··on Apple Regrets Confusion over 'iPhone Scanning'
Where do the hashes come from? I assume the system is designed to minimize the number of people who have to look at the CP, but how do they audit that someone isn't inserting hashes to look for dissidents?
clarkrinker··on Biohackers take aim at big pharma’s stranglehold on insulin
The Part D reforms from this year cap insulin costs at [1] $35 a month. You can setup your social security benefit to have it automatically deducted

The premiums for part D in Washington State are about $40 a month [2]

Most Medicaid recipients don't pay out of pocket for insulin.

clarkrinker··on Biohackers take aim at big pharma’s stranglehold on insulin
Every time this stuff comes up it feels like we focus on the politics and not the people with diabetes.

If you or your kid or your friends have Type 1 and are struggling to make your insulin out of pockets please, please, please call the Eli Lily hotline and get the copay card. They've dropped the monthly cost for Humalog to $35.

Don't ration. Work the system. https://www.humalog.com/savings-support

clarkrinker··on Fusion startup plans reactor with small but powerful superconducting magnets
Fusion is one of those topics where I'm always going to click on the comments before I click through to the article. There's a lot more to learn from you than from the link. Thanks for being here HN.
clarkrinker··on Low carb diet leads to “clinical remission” in 3 cases of type 1 diabetes
Reiterating what the diabetics in these threads will tell you:

Type 1 isn't about insulin resistance in your cells, it's about not producing insulin in your pancreas. Of course type 1 diabetics with rigorous diets will have less glucose swings, but a stable A1c or daily tests doesn't mean your eyelet cells grew back. It's a bit like saying a hemophiliac is asymptotic because they haven't had any cuts lately.

These kinds of articles can come off as callus to diabetics. They're getting diet advice from their GPs and their endocrinologists. They don't need muggles telling them to eat better.

clarkrinker··on Godot Editor running in a web browser
One of my favorite parts about Godot is that it gets away from those crazy load times / lockup you experience in Unity/Unreal. The .import file it associates with your asset is plaintext. Definitely running into fewer merge conflicts.
