That’s the power of totalitarian!

poyuon Show HN: Data Structures and Algorithms in JavaScript

I think one of the point of using Markdown is that you can read it unformatted. Using `<details>` & `<summary>` kinda breaks that mentality don't you think?

poyuon Teenage Engineering has won over kids and professionals with a synthesizer

If you like their POs, you'll probably like the OP-Z too. The main difference between the OP-1 & the OP-Z for me is that the OP-Z is a sequencer, as in the OP-1 just records whatever you play. Different workflow for different style, I guess.

poyuon The HP-35: Consumer Electronics, an Origin Story

Thanks for SwissMicros link! Never heard of them.

poyuon The HP-35: Consumer Electronics, an Origin Story

I really really like HP calculators. The only one I have now is the HP-35s, a new version of HP-35.

Once you go RPN, you can never go back! I have PCalc (another piece of amazing software) on my phone for RPN.

It feels really stupid for others to see that I can't operate a normal calculator.

poyuon Airtable gets $52M in funding

Airtable is such a nice product. My friend actually uses it as a headless CMS, in that regard it's so much easier to use than Contentful IMO.

poyuon Cryptographers Urge People to Abandon IOTA After Leaked Emails

Feels like those people defending the Solar Road Way...

poyuon Nginx HTTP/2 server push support

Take a look at my other comment, but in short, it's hard. You also have to account in the client's download speed.

The point of server to push is to _preload_ content, and reduce the amount of requests, not to reduce total download size.

poyuon Nginx HTTP/2 server push support

Here's a really nice write up on server push optimization from the Chrome team.

poyuon Uber Bike – A New Way to Commute or Explore

I think it means you can lock the bike anywhere you want, and the app can tell you what bikes are near you. You just need to walk up to it and unlock with your phone.

poyuon Show HN: Frogtop.us – A personal, private, distributed pastebin

I've always wanted something like this, and using PasteBin requires so many steps! Any chance you want to open source it?

Might help if you link your app `Elements` somewhere in your blog!

poyuon Show HN: Improved My News App, Would Love Feedback

Hey man, frontend looks fine, but I think some of your APIs are 404 now. There's also missing 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header error on some of the endpoints.

Keep it up!

poyuon Turning a side project into an open-source project

Hey, thanks for the site! I use it all the time! Great tool to have!

poyuon Ask HN: 2018 resolutions?

Just signed up for StdLib! Looks cool, so it's basically a streamlined version of AWS Lambda + API Gateway?

poyuon Microsoft Has Stopped Manufacturing The Kinect

This is quite sad, seeing so many amazing hacked together project that uses the Kinect. I bought a fairly new one at thrift shop for only $15 dollar (!!) a few weeks back.

poyuon PlatformIO, open source ecosystem for IoT

I've been using it for a while developing ESP8266 projects. It's really enjoyable to not having to mess around with Makefiles and managing dependencies myself.

poyuon Building a Hackintosh Pro

I'm a Hackintosh user for almost 10 years (from 10.6!), though I do have a MacBook Pro with my when I'm out.

As other people stated, yes, it is very time consuming to get it straight. Treat it as a hobby, you'll understand things about the Mac (or computers in general) other people don't, such as DSDT patches, how drivers are loaded, and Mac power management, etc.

If you use Clover, and get all the patches right, you can almost get an update-proof setup (Except when you go from say 10.11 to 10.12). But even at the worst case, usually people on the Internet will figure out fast enough for you to apply the new patches. Minor updates are really really easy and fine. I always click Update without batting an eye.

It's a tinkerer's hobby. If you like doing researches and being fine with spending time figuring out stuff on the Internet, I will say go for it and try it out! The process is fun and the result is very rewarding.
