Re:Show HN: I built a jiu jitsu gym database on Sunday March 09, 2025 @05:59PM (#43314341)
This is awesome. I looked up my home gym and was pleased to see it there.

One thing I would really like to see is the schedule. I see you have hours of operation. But being able to see what the actual class schedule is would be pretty helpful. I can imagine that would be difficult to consistently scrape, since not every time posts that ( for some reason )

How does Dynamic differ from ImmutableX's Passport^[0]? And why should someone use Dynamic over them?

Re:Tell HN: Can't turn off “grind mode” on Tuesday February 21, 2023 @01:45PM (#34885032)
Find something else that you can direct your grind into. Personally, I found Jiu Jitsu to be a great outlet for the grind.

Just type in "continue" and it will continue

Cool. War propaganda.
I'm sure there are a number of ways to do this but here's how I would approach it.

1. Move Postgres to either it's own instance or use RDS

2. Move Redis to either it's own instance or use Elasticache

3. Convert your cron jobs to Lambda functions that run on cron timer

4. Move your EC2 instance behind a load balancer and create an autoscaling group

How much do you think roads, defense, health care, education really cost?

We've given Ukraine 55 billion dollars. We clearly have cash to spare. Why do we need to raise more?

Re:Odds are we're living in a simulation, says Elon Musk on Tuesday June 28, 2022 @12:11PM (#31909568)
Something that has always confused me about this simulation idea is the number of people who believe in it, but don't believe in God.

What's really the difference between God and that which programmed the simulation?

Re:As weed gets more potent, teens are getting sick on Thursday June 23, 2022 @03:18PM (#31853951)
It's not a bad time. But I'm doing nothing. I spend each night channel surfing between YouTube, AppleTV, Hulu, and Netflix. It would be so boring if I were doing it sober.
Re:As weed gets more potent, teens are getting sick on Thursday June 23, 2022 @03:17PM (#31853935)
By gym, I mean Jiu Jitsu. But that's really just physical entertainment that consumes 1-3 hours an evening. If I'm back home by 7, what do I do with the time between then and bedtime? I don't know if not smoke weed.

I'm struggling with this right now. Using during the day is still an uncommon occurrence, but it's happening more and more.

The real issue I'm having with it is that I'm using pretty much every night. I come from the gym, take a shower, and grab the vape pen and sit on the couch. It just makes me so lazy.

I stopped cooking and just eat pizza and ice cream nearly every night. Thankfully my weight hasn't taken a hit. But it creates this cycle of not cooking, so I don't buy groceries, so I can't cook, so I just order in.

Re:Why are some egg yolks so orange? on Sunday April 17, 2022 @01:10PM (#31062394)
I poach eggs for breakfast in my InstantPot. 3 eggs for 5 minutes on steam. I've found that eggs with orange yolks tend towards a jammy texture, but yellow yolks tend towards a drier texture.
This is cool. But not really novel. The US has been able to do this for at least 10 years.
