nyadesu··on MacBook Neo Is So Popular That Apple Doubled Production
I second this, MacBook Neo is a good balance between a cheap and more than good enough machine that you can carry in your backpack everywhere

The fact that I'm not carrying a +1k USD machine all the time gives me peace of mind

nyadesu··on The highest quality codebase
In my case, I enjoy writing code too, but it's helpful to have an assistant I can ask to handle small tasks so I can focus on a specific part that requires attention to detail
nyadesu··on 72% of devs believe Steam has a monopoly on PC games, according to study
It doesn't feel that way to me, I know I could probably buy a game through another digital distribution service, maybe for a bit cheaper, but it's just not worth the hassle of installing another program, signing up, and configuring things
nyadesu··on Why Nextcloud feels slow to use
Immich is actually usable, thumbnail previews work without any previous setup, and the mobile app is pretty responsive

Unlike Nextcloud, I feel I can rely on it and feel I can upgrade without issues

nyadesu··on Gokrazy – Go Appliances
Couldn't someone achieve this by using a very lightweight Linux distro, setting up ssh and using Ansible?
nyadesu··on Yabai – A tiling window manager for macOS
It's amazing, makes MacOS usable when using big displays, I tried to use Yabai on my work macbook but couldn't install it due to SIP and work environment restrictions
nyadesu··on Building Text Classifiers: A New Approach with Less Data
This feels more like an ad, more than an article with actual content.
nyadesu··on On Learning to Program with LLMs
I feel LLMs are not at the point to tell me I'm wrong yet, it feels like it avoids to do it because it doesn't want to be rude. And that sucks, big part of the teaching process is the feedback loop between students and teachers doing exactly that.
nyadesu··on Raspberry Pi 5
This, I've been pretty happy with it as well, it's so much easier to set up as a kubernetes node than a RPi.
nyadesu··on Android 14 adds support for using your smartphone as a webcam
Parsec could work
nyadesu··on The Reddit blackout has left Google barren and full of holes
That's one of the reasons centralized model works so well nowadays, nobody wants to take care of things anymore, self hosting your own apps is becoming a small niche
nyadesu··on Ask HN: I have 176 logins/accounts. How many do you have?
319, currently using Bitwarden to manage them and been pretty happy with it so far
nyadesu··on Ask HN: Open-Source Self-Hosted No-Code Platforms?
https://www.windmill.dev/
nyadesu··on Retool Database
I've had a pretty good experience with retool but its component library definitely needs more documentation, as a frontend developer I'm able to go through all those props and tinker a bit until I get something done, but it's time consuming and not intuitive at first glance.

An example of this is the Table components, which allows you to create columns and set them a specific type, but that component documentation page doesn't include a section about which column types are allowed and how they work. Even further, there's a column type called Tag that it's available for us to use, but we don't have documentation about it and Tag documentation isn't helpful either,

It wouldn't hurt to add some common examples like a storybook along some way to let us see how to configure the components like that, or json examples we can import into our projects.

nyadesu··on A reason why Mac speakers sound better and louder than most
I wouldn't say it's bad, it looks above average for an open source project but definitely could use some improvements. What I hate about it is that it's not plain-looking (like HN, which has its own charm!) or very polished (like twitter, instagram, yooutube)
nyadesu··on Hyperscale in your Homelab: The Compute Blade arrives
I've been running a cluster like that since some years ago and definitely felt that, but it was easy to fix by adding AMD64 nodes to it

Modifying the services I'm working on to build multi-arch container images was not as straightforward as I imagined, but now I can take advantage of both ARM and AMD64 nodes on my cluster (plus I learned to do that, which is priceless)

nyadesu··on Anki SRS Algorithm : Spaced repetition explained with code
I think it's meant for memorization, so ideal for language learning and raw knowledge absorption (like in academic courses)
nyadesu··on Ending support for self-hosted Gitpod and moving our source to AGPL
Great product, sounds like a reasonable move. Hope Gitpod can keep growing and improving even more
nyadesu··on Ask HN: Do you feel bad when devices aren't utilized to the extreme?
I don't think that's a fair comparison, machines exclusively running those CI pipelines could be very powerful
nyadesu··on Inkbase: Programmable Ink
Cool stuff, this demonstrates there's still a long way to go regarding building user interfaces

Also, I can imagine something like this would be very valuable when applied to language learning, especially for languages with ideograms

nyadesu··on Valve Introduces Proton Next
Is it related to steam deck's anti-cheat support?
nyadesu··on Building a private LoRa network (2017)
Everything has potential for military use if you try hard enough
nyadesu··on Deno 1.26 Release Notes
> What's better with Deno?

Scripting, tooling/IDE support (webstorm support is pretty good), documentation and standardization, infrastructure as code

> What's still worse?

Node/NPM compatibility is still hit or miss depending on the library you're trying to use, that's something Bun is trying to improve over Deno.

Also, typescript types feel very hacky and I feel that's something very important as one of Deno's biggest selling points is typescript first-class support, definitely typed is doing most of the heavy lifting but things aren't perfect.

nyadesu··on When to use Bazel?
Would you mind explaining why? I use Nx and it's been good, not perfect tho, so at this point I'm very skeptical about toolchaining solutions that claim they 'just work'
nyadesu··on Ask HN: Why can't we comment on “X is Hiring” posts?
Facebook/Meta also allows it I think, but comment section on ad publications is heavily moderated
nyadesu··on Using the same Arch Linux installation for a decade
This matches my experience as well, been using it since 6 or 7 years ago, and it feels nice to know I can rely on my OS install. If something breaks I have to learn how to fix it and that knowledge builds up over time. Way better than other operating systems where I'm totally screwed if something breaks up and the only thing I can do is run in circles.

I also use i3wm btw

nyadesu··on Asus Zenbook 17 Fold OLED
> or their locked-down software

Not anymore, check out Asahi Linux.

nyadesu··on TikTok’s Poison Pill
The fact both Youtube and Instagram are now displaying short-form videos within their apps only makes it worse. I know it's hard to fight against it but focus on something else more worthy of your time.
nyadesu··on HN is up again
Just installed a new router and was trying to browse HN to check if my internet connection was working properly, lol
nyadesu··on Ask HN: What tools are you a 10/10 on?
Tailscale
