recov··on Stable Diffusion Textual Inversion
Something about this just turns me off, not sure why.
recov··on Ask HN: What tools are you a 10/10 on?
I find starting with a NGINX generator a necessity, one you have a template to add/modify it's a lot easier.
recov··on AI-art isn't art: DALL-E and other AI artists offer only the imitation of art
A fun take on this - https://moforgeries.org/
recov··on Windmill.dev
So powerful and so ugly
recov··on Ask HN: Who's having a ton of fun at work and what are you doing?
Me. My company is (relatively) small enough that a single engineer can still make impacts, if you're on the right team. I'm on a small team where I know/own most of the engineering tech, and am trusted by my lead on input. It's mostly DE/back-end/front end, however we use a ton of data for some science-based processes and there's always room for optimizing when we have time.

I actually look forward to work/don't dread Sundays at all.

recov··on Go Developer Survey 2021 Results
Here's a good article form rob pike on one way to look at how Go can handle errors https://go.dev/blog/errors-are-values
recov··on What Is Unraid?
Slightly on topic, a nice low maintence (other than a daily/weekly backup/scrub script) option without the need for a specific OS is mergerFS, combined with snapRaid. The main benefit is you can add and remove drives/directories willy-nilly. It's been stable for me for the past 3 years, it just works.

recov··on Meld is a visual diff and merge tool targeted at developers
Same here. So far it's my favorite UX for solving non-trivial merge conflicts.
recov··on PEP 594 – Removing dead batteries from the standard library
Virtually 0 chance of the functionality form Go being removed if you do.
recov··on Cron best practices
When it gets big enough, airflow is easy to set up an much more powerful/useful
recov··on A neuroscientist prepares for death
See also, the book permutation city
recov··on Glibc is still not Y2038 compliant by default
Yep. Also see https://twitter.com/jxxf/status/1219009308438024200
recov··on Sublime Clojure
Really cool plugin, although a bit sad to see how long it's taking to get approved - It makes sense to want to do a thorough review, although taking a month+ not something I like seeing in my favorite editor :(
recov··on How to build a HackerNews Clone using Redis
So basically, what the current HN is sans lisp.
recov··on Incenser, or how NSA and GCHQ are tapping internet cables (2014)
I'm always happy to see snowden mentioned, and how his leaks seemingly will never go away. One of my fears was that he would be forgotten in 1-2 years.
recov··on Kalliroscope
Instagram is definitely one of the worst offenders of this. You can obviously see it happening with reddit/twitter/etc wanting you to log in but those at least allow you to look at content. Instagram is just a black hole if you aren't logged in.
recov··on The world's worst Linux kernel module
Potential idea to somehow have 51% of the programs on github be malicious to taint copilot?
recov··on The Framework is the most exciting laptop I've used
Same here, also waiting for AMD
recov··on Ask HN: I love coding, but I hate web development. How can I “jump ship”?
> Maybe look if data engineering is for you
recov··on Ask HN: What tech to run and monitor CRON jobs (Python, Node.js, C#)?
A little overkill, but airflow. Free, has history, language agnostic, retries, can handle a large number of time based tasks.
recov··on Why can't software engineers work from home most of the time? (2016)
This is something that took me a bit to realize. I've made some friends at work that do things outside of work, but building relationships/friendships outside of work are usually more meaningful and last longer.
recov··on NASA can't figure out what's causing computer issues on the Hubble telescope
Interesting thought. I would say something like the hubble transcends politcal/governmental boundaries... although I do wonder how much if its software is used in other secretive satellites.
recov··on MPs: Octopuses feel pain and need legal protection
I think humans are a bit more civilized than lions, and can comprehend what we're doing.
recov··on Ask HN: How close to Ready Player One's Oasis are we in 2021?
There are numerous companies selling/developing force feedback accessories

Mostly gloves but the tech is there.

recov··on Show HN: I made a community sourced fitness routine database
Looks like a more casual and open version of https://liftvault.com/
recov··on Show HN: Generate configuration files for your Hyper Ledger Fabric deployment
Nice tool - this would have helped when I was working with HLF years ago. It would be a good addition to preview the yaml files in the UI.
