I built this because I constantly find myself on Facebook instead of being productive. I wanting something that gave me the same experience of something that feels alive and active with likes, comments, notifications, etc. but that isn't toxic and redirects the time towards something good.

Would love to hear feedback on the app or the idea

In Electron it's super easy. Just set alwaysOnTop to true: https://github.com/timsayshey/cringe-clock/blob/main/src/bac...

Inspired by this post I threw together a new open source desktop app that has an annoying always on top window that has a flashing timer, this seems to accomplish the same thing. https://github.com/timsayshey/cringe-clock

"Conclusions: Moderate-certainty evidence finds that large reductions in COVID-19 deaths are possible using ivermectin. Using ivermectin early in the clinical course may reduce numbers progressing to severe disease. The apparent safety and low cost suggest that ivermectin is likely to have a significant impact on the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic globally."

One of the biggest ways I use iCloud Photos is as a screensaver on my Apple TV. As I am considering alternatives to Apple products due to privacy concerns, I am looking for something that has screensaver integrations with Android TV and/or Apple TV. It seems all open source Google Photos alternatives don't have a screensaver app for any TV platform.

I think all censorship should be deplored. My position is that bits are not a bug. That we should create communications technologies that allow people to send whatever they like to each other. And when people put their thumbs on the scale and try to say what can and can't be sent, we should fight back - both politically through protest and technologically through software. - Aaron Swartz

I've been following Hacker News for over a decade and my sense of the community is that it has always been overwhelmingly pro free speech at any cost (even in the cases where it would protect something outright illegal). Now I'm hearing from many in the same community that free speech has been "weaponized" and must be controlled for the greater good. What happened? Seriously.

They were definitely tracked: https://www.wusa9.com/article/features/producers-picks/fbi-t...

Just installed it. And had gmail running on it and Chrome at the same time. Firefox Nightly showed to be using significant power while Chrome was not. I think this still has a long way to go before I switch to Firefox both in terms of performance and dev tools.

This is an amazing project! Probably one of the most useful ways to actually find quality job listings. If only Craigslist would offer site-wide search natively.

Btw, you should open-source this on GitHub. You should also include a crypto/paypal donation option.

I've been doing keto for 2 years. This is actually pretty cool, I found a few things I want to try. You should add ratings and track clicks and use the data to add a way to sort by popularity.

They wouldn't, they would just use Lucee's script syntax instead which is very similar to JavaScript.

There is probably a good use case here for developers maintaining a CF project that need to pick up the language quickly. This looks like a great course. Also, I've never heard of AdobeKnowHow, looks like an interesting platform.

I really wish AWS would stop enabling master API keys by default. As soon as you create an AWS account you are given API keys which basically have SUDO permissions to your entire account. That is super dangerous and is probably the same key set that these hackers got ahold of. AWS needs to disable these full access API keys by default and instead should encourage users to generate keys for specific access to limit what they can do.

If this is the case then wouldn't re-naming it Python 4 shake the negative view of it? Guess it's too late now for Python but I've seen it done in other open source projects and it worked pretty well.

Switched to nightly and there it is. Thank you!

>> When an XHR response comes back as HTML, there is no "Preview" tab like in Chrome.

> This is consolidated in the Response tab. You can view it as raw response, or JSON (with filtering options).

Yeah, I can see the raw HTML or JSON response. But Chrome actually allows you to see the rendered HTML response in the "Preview" tab. Are you saying there is a way to see the rendered HTML from the XHR response? I'm not seeing it. To see the rendered HTML, I have to copy it, create an html file, paste the HTML, then open it in a browser. That's a lot of extra steps when debugging something.

Their devtools have come a long way. And are almost caught up with Chrome. I've only noticed the following things missing: When an XHR response comes back as HTML, there is no "Preview" tab like in Chrome. Also, the responsive testing tool doesn't have the device frames (ie, iPhone, iPad, etc) and it also doesn't have the little touch circle cursor that let's you drag and swipe while testing.

I used to use itunes.so-nik.com to extract podcast urls but it looks like it's down right now. Thankfully they posted the code on github so you can just run the PHP script yourself:

It's been a long road to 2.0 with lots detours but we've finally made it! Thanks to an awesome dedicated team and community :)

Lol, and yes, asking if Coldfusion is still a thing is like asking if Java is still a thing. It's a dynamic scripting language on the JVM that gets stuff done. It's not going anywhere. If you had a bad perception of CF many years ago, do yourself a favor and check out Lucee before making any comments, lest you misrepresent the language and speak out of ignorance ;) -- Remember bad code happens in every language

Wow. I've just got to say thank you for some of the most rational responses I've seen on hn in regards to the Bible. It's almost always misrepresented here by people with little knowledge of it or just bad personal experiences. You can almost feel their anger and bitterness. Which I get because I used to be the same way.

Man, I really wish hn had a follow button so I could read more of your level headed and insightful responses :)

I asked the same question here when this went up but I haven't heard anything from anyone. I have a feeling as Bitcoin goes more and more mainstream wallets will get cheaper. It's pretty ridiculous to expect people to pay $50-100 for a single wallet that could easily be lost. Especially when hardware is getting so cheap, there is no excuse for the prices. Either an open source alternative will bring the price down or competition but right now I think the answer to our question is unfortunately, no.

New to cryptocurrencies but could this be used a wallet with the right software? Also, are there any open source wallets that integrate with apps like Mycellium the same way as Ledger Nano S or Trezor?

Where I'm from 90% of what a general practitioner does is give out antibiotics. I hate the over prescription of antibiotics but they could easily prescribe that over video chat. This would keep sick people at home and allow doctors to focus on people that actual need to come in to be physically examined.

There are startups popping up that offer consultation via facetime/video chat but unfortunately, they are only covering small areas or big cities at the moment. We're really behind on this in the US unfortunately.

I'm on the fence about him myself but do you not see the irony in your comment?

I've noticed Jordan Peterson getting mentioned a lot around here lately. Do you have a link to his lecture on this topic?
