quechimbaon The Promise of 5-MeO-DMT

Where is this center located? Near Iquitos by any chance? And in that case, do you have Starlink, and if so, what speeds do you get?

quechimbaon The Promise of 5-MeO-DMT

Last time I drank ayahuasca with huambisa/chaliponga (contains 5-meo-dmt) I vomited every 5-10 minutes for about 4 hours. It was horrible, and I had to ask for help because I couldn't even get up and refill my water bottle. Chacruna is more gentle and smooth.

quechimbaon Solar power is changing life deep in the Amazon

I wish Iquitos had solar powered mototaxis.

My brother lives in a village nearby and everyone has solar panels there now. They pay 35 soles/month for it, which is cheaper than the generators they had before which they loaded with 5 soles worth of gasoline every night.

quechimbaon RubyJS-Vite

Thanks!

Both! I needed something like JSX, and I found Rux [1] but I had some issues with it, and then I found syntax_tree-haml [2] which gave me an AST that I could transform into Ruby. This is what the transformation looks like: https://gist.github.com/aalin/c0e4b0360a1f84d0283149fe4b2ce6...

I have always liked Haml because it's compact and easy to read.

quechimbaon RubyJS-Vite

I'm working on a framework inspired by React/Next.js which turns Haml into Ruby. It's 100% server side, but it runs pretty fast. I'm currently working on a rewrite, I just wish I had more time to work on it.

This game is really fun. My highscore is 60328 after a few days :)

quechimbaon A disk so full, it couldn't be restored

I had an external hard drive that I overfilled by accident while making a manual backup of media files, and after that I couldn't even mount the APFS volume. Apparently it's something that can happen.

In the end I was able to mount and rescue the data using https://github.com/libyal/libfsapfs

I followed this guide: https://matt.sh/apfs-object-map-free-recovery

quechimbaon Medellín's Green Corridors

Of course. But for the most part it's beautiful. My best friend used to drive taxi and when I had nothing to do I would go with him in the car while he was working, so I've been around. I like the architecture in the barrios.

quechimbaon Medellín's Green Corridors

Medellín is the most beautiful city I have ever been to. It's very green and clean.

This looks great. I like the chord palette, I would like to have something like that in Bitwig.

quechimbaon IT employment grew by just 700 jobs in 2023

I have never had problems finding work, until now. It used to be easy. Recruiters used to call me at night. Now they ghost me.

quechimbaon Fixing annoying blue standby lights

I've been using black diamond headlamps. In recent years they replaced their battery indicator LEDs to some really strong blue ones. I use the red light a lot, and when I turn it off, the battery indicator LEDs will light up the entire room. I have covered mine with electrical tape, but the blue light shines through the plastic so it doesn't really work and my headlamp looks ugly.

I don't know why they would do this. The first headlamp I got from them had red, yellow and green battery indicator LEDs, now they have 3 blue ones. It's really annoying. I should probably write them an email and ask them to fix it.

quechimbaon Hamlet: A type-safe Haml template engine for Go

Looks good, Haml is a great templating language.

The biggest problem with Haml is probably that it's really difficult to write a tree-sitter parser for it. In this case, you would have to parse both haml, go, CSS and JavaScript and be aware of indentation.

quechimbaon Hamlet: A type-safe Haml template engine for Go

I use Haml in my web framework, I use syntax_suggest [1] to count the missing pairs so I can insert them automatically at the end of the block. It would probably not be too difficult to do the same thing in Go.

quechimbaon 2TB microSD card is on the way early next year

I remember many years ago when my uncle explained to my grand dad how many photos he could fit in his cameras memory card. He was completely blown away, he couldn't believe it, he said it was impossible and laughed.

So nice that :has() is now finally supported everywhere!

quechimbaon Ask HN: Coding on Your Phone?

My laptop died from humidity a few years ago and I had to get some work done so I installed Termux, zsh, tmux, vim, postgres, node and Ruby on my phone. Worked really well! I would recommend an external keyboard though.

quechimbaon Ask HN: Show me your half baked project

Mayu, a server side web framework written in Ruby, inspired by React. Been working on it for over a year, and I'm currently doing a complete rewrite now that I have a better idea of how it should work.

quechimbaon Amazon Rain Forest Is Drying

My brother lives in a village about 1.5 hours down the river from Iquitos. He's running an ayahuasca retreat and I'm there helping out. :)

quechimbaon Amazon Rain Forest Is Drying

I'm on a boat on the Amazon river right now and I've never seen the water being this low ever.

quechimbaon Ask HN: ARM Laptop Suggestions?

It's really slow. YouTube works but browsing is really slow overall. I installed Manjaro with KDE on mine and quickly changed to i3 because the trackpad isn't that good so moving windows around wasn't really fun. When I got the graphics drivers to work, Alacritty ran pretty good and I used it for coding. I wouldn't recommend it for any serious work.
