One of my favorite shows, was happy to see it finally come to streaming a few years ago, came later than a lot of other older shows from the same time period.
Re:Show HN: Sheet Music in Smart Glasses on Tuesday May 06, 2025 @02:29PM (#43908186)
A full orchestra on stage playing with no music stands sure would be make for a nice sight (assuming the glasses looked like regular old glasses -- (or maybe blues brothers shades)).
Re:Anatomy of a SQL Engine on Sunday April 27, 2025 @10:17AM (#43812117)
Using dolthub's go-mysql-server for Grafana's upcoming SQL expressions feature (private preview in Grafana 12, but in the OSS version with a feature toggle).

GMS lets you provide your own table and database implementations, so we use GMS to perform SQL queries against Grafana's dataframes - so users can join or manipulate different data source queires, but we don't have to insert the data into SQL to do this thanks to GMS.

Here he was on "What's my line?", this is while he was young enough not to be a celebrity guest https://youtu.be/K8u6MoA7fv0?si=McDOrCqNad5zv2vM
Re:Harmonics Explorer on Monday January 29, 2024 @04:25PM (#39182868)
It might be interesting if there is more fine tuning towards the lower end of the volume. So the higher harmonics can be present but much softer.
That are other taxable areas besides income, for example property and sales taxes.

Re:Read “Gravity’s Rainbow” fifty years later on Wednesday April 05, 2023 @03:28PM (#35459226)
If reading, I would recommend a companion book, makes it easy to check references if you feel like you are missing too many things while reading. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0820328073/ref=tmm_pap_swatch...
"This Florida Company" is Team Cymru

Would be nice to remove that vauge clickbait part from the title

Re:Something is happening to Norway (2019) on Wednesday December 28, 2022 @09:23AM (#34161233)
Are there title rules for HN that would apply here? "Something is happening to [Someplace]" is pretty much meaningless since it is always true.

Don't have it in front of me to verify, but would NodeRed make the list?

Re:Almost Everything on Amazon Is Becoming an Ad on Thursday November 24, 2022 @10:58AM (#33732774)
"Amazon has turned shill results into its next big thing. After selling $31 billion in ads last year, Amazon became the third-largest online ad company in the United States, trailing only Google and Facebook".

Got my attention more than than anything else. Seems to really be pushing antitrust to new heights?

Re:Grafana Incident: Smart incident management for your teams on Thursday February 03, 2022 @12:20PM (#30195346)
Hoping to see cleaner ways to integrate across data sources, but developing that contract is going to take some time I think. In the meantime, should be able to get this supported with prometheus data source in a Grafana managed alert: https://github.com/grafana/grafana/pull/44865
Re:Solana Pay on Tuesday February 01, 2022 @02:53PM (#30168234)
Seems pretty hard to connect those claims to the docs https://docs.solanapay.com/spec

In terms of visuals and design this is one of most gorgeous links I have ever clicked on.
Pardon the comment noise, but I can't help but highlight that "Fifth Force of Nature" is an excellent name for a band.
Re:Plans for a new city in the American desert on Monday September 06, 2021 @11:54AM (#28434917)
Emphasis on "plans":

"Now, he just needs somewhere to build it -- and $400 billion in funding"

I figure it is safe as long as you use the products outside of CA's borders.
I think from a fanicial perspective this is because salaried (or salary like) positions are sort of illiquid. Kind of like houses, moving is a pain so people often do not want to sell unless the profit is significant.
It seems the 40 year inspection is required by Miami-Dade county, and this is all work in preparation for that.

The letter the county sends out http://www.miamidade.gov/permits/library/recertification-bui... says: "Failure to submit the required Recertification Report will result in the issuance of a Civil Violation Notice or ticket without further notice to you and referral of this matter to the Unsafe Structures Unit for the initiation of condemnation proceedings"

So to me this makes it seem like some government checks are in place. But curious if there were more recent government backed inspections for safety.
