Show HN: Adept – convert any YouTube playlist into a Udemy-like course

https://withadept.com

I built[1] a simple web app that turns any YouTube playlist into a Udemy-like course that keeps track of your progress, and gets rid of as many distractions as possible.All you need to do is paste a link to a YouTube playlist (or to a video that’s part of a playlist) and it will be converted into a course. You can also convert it directly from YouTube by changing “youtube” in the URL to...

From the linked blog.

Steam already has Apple Silicon build in Steam Beta channel.
Water resistance ratings of 30 meters don’t mean that you can dive with it up to 30 meters. Those ratings are related to static pressure tests.

Generally 30 meters shouldn’t be submerged, 50 meters is okay for swimming, above that diving is acceptable to certain limit. True diving watches start with 200 meters and preferably ISO diver's certification (which SKX has).

Looks like gradient text isn't rendering properly on Chrome, because it's missing -webkit- prefix on background-clip.

In this video focused on developers (https://youtube.com/watch?v=5Q_C5KVJbUw at 5:54) they mention they are working with BattlEye and EAC to get it working prior to Steam Deck release. In my experience EAC was the reason that many games that were otherwise perfectly fine became broken because of anti cheat. This should make a huge difference.

I think I’ve heard different story involving Head of Diversity, nowhere close to “kill all Jews”. Do you have source on that?

> If one had Bitcoin in an exchange instead of an offline wallet, does that mean that when forks occur, the exchange does not give you coins in the fork?

In most cases you do get new coins post-fork. Exchange will announce whether they support the fork or not before it happens, so you can react.

I did the same thing.

As I'm in Europe I couldn't call them nor reach them via "instant chat" as hours it was open didn't make sense.

I liked the service and it wasn't that expensive, but after that whole cancellation UX I'm done with NYT forever.

It's just testing the output. For benchmark each variant is run 5 times with kjvbible.txt as input and then the lowest execution time is used as benchmark.
When your video is longer than 10 minutes you can place ads manually wherever you want and increase the total number of ads in the video.

Re:How to present a GitHub project for your resume (2016) on Saturday July 29, 2017 @12:44PM (#14881992)
I got my current job just with GitHub. I was asked to only show my GitHub profile. I didn't need resume at all. Some companies might not care about your GitHub, but they are always some that do.
Thanks for this link.

I'm afraid I won't be able to attend GSOC this year. It requires you to be college student prior to 7th May. I finish secondary school this year, so I will officially become college student mid-July.

Thanks for your interest.

Not really. I was training for the entrance test to military school and damaged my elbow. It's not serious for normal activities, though. Just can't push it too hard. I think I won't be operated on before the end of this year.

I really enjoy programming, so I don't think I will regret getting some experience. I got injured during workout recently as well and I'm not able to do physical work, play most games or workout, so just not to waste time I'd love to get the internship.

Ask HN: What should I focus on to get my first internship this summer?

Hi, I'm Wiktor, I'm 20 years old and I'm from Poland.Soon I'll have school leaving exams and then 4 months of summer break. I'd like to get the most out of it so I plan to get the internship as a developer. In my area, there are no companies looking for interns, so I think I'll have to work remotely or abroad.I've been programming for around 8 years now and got some experience (personal...

Ask HN: Stripe alternatives with worldwide merchants for non-business

Hi. I'm just pissed off, because I can't find any payment gateway, which will support merchants in any country (Stripe is awesome, but it requires to be located in specified countries). PayPal is global, but it's painful to implement this (I've implemented it using ActiveMerchant, it redirects user to success page and it doesn't charge user). Are there any other payment processors which works...
