Re:Magic Switch: Share Apple Magic keyboard/track-pad/mouse between tw...
on Sunday October 04, 2026 @03:57PM (#49957261)
Since I move a bunch of USB devices between my personal and work MacBooks anyway, I just wired my Magic Keyboard and Trackpad up to the same KVM switch and that works fine. However, it wouldn’t work for a Magic Mouse if I decided to use that, so I’ll give Magic Switch a try (especially compelling since it doesn’t require the same Apple ID as Continuity does). I’d like to see if I can wire it up to switch when the KVM switches from one laptop to the other.

Man it's so unfortunate that this launch coincided with the component crisis, forcing the prices to be just outside the range of people that were debating between getting this and getting a console, it would've made so much more of an impact if the prices were $200 lower.

Re:What was your "Oh Shit" moment with GenAI?
on Sunday June 07, 2026 @01:01PM (#48436668)
I'll be really honest, I was running out of time on a mid size ticket at work. Basically swapping ~50 models from Go native to Protobuf messages, preserving some sane defaults we had in some already declared `.pb`s.
I let it do it, it one shotted it, then I thought "hmm, would be nice for it to keep a changelog of big changes it does for me from now on so I don't have to keep reminding myself. I told it, and it created a hook for itself to do just that. From that chat onwards, every change bigger than what it considered "trivial" got added to an `AGENT_CHANGELOG.md`.
That got me hooked.

Still looking for a nicer solution to just deploy some personal projects that are usually 1 container big but might end up being 2-4, and being able to do logging, tracing, rolling updates, networking, etc;
For now using Docker Compose for most of that.

I really hope the C-suite that decided this gets no bonus and hopefully a salary cut this year. Stupid, anti-consumer measures like this need proper consequences so they stop happening.
Until then, let's keep boycotting companies with anti-consumer practices.

Don't ask me why but I did feel a tiny bit bummed out after getting 50 and being told I'm in the 68th percentile out of 13000~ people.
It's worth considering who the other participants are, has this been mostly shared just among University of Cambridge students / staff (and HN readers now)?
Re:Why Romania excels in international Olympiads
on Sunday August 31, 2025 @04:44AM (#45081553)
Lived in Romania until I finished high school. Professors would always push us to compete in the olympiads, there was an informal system where some professors, even if they were not the one teaching your class, would take you under your wing to prepare you to hit county/national/international level, you’d be allowed to skip school for a week/month depending on the level you got to, there was even some prestige to be gained.
I was personally never motivated to go past county, but it was a fun time.
