Re:Yet another keyboard post, or, introducing ErgoNICE
on Friday January 13, 2023 @11:07AM (#34369705)
Last time i researched adding shift registers was over a year ago and I didn’t find many examples (I vaguely recall one possibly with qmk), and very little public discussion besides a reddit question. Popular guides like ai03’s at the time recommended upgrading to a microcontroller with more gpio before introducing shift registers.
Searching again, looks like zmk added support for the common 595 shift register: https://github.com/zmkfirmware/zmk/pull/1325
Edit: You could avoid using diodes, but diodes increase the number of switches possible via a matrix more than shift registers do by giving you more gpio. I’d imagine one can use both together.

TIL that :wq is like :x
I only knew about :x. So thus far I’ve only edited with :x, and then used :q! to quit without writing the changes.
Re:My Bad Habit of Hoarding Information
on Friday January 06, 2023 @12:30PM (#34277875)
I also hoard information. Keeping a stream of links where I go back to a small percentage. But I find that it is a good habit for me. The links are a slice of the pages that I actually care about.
Though, I wish for a way to index and search specifically within my stream of links. So that I can better recall content that I have glanced at in the past.
Re:PayPal Inactivity Fee

I’m assuming DDA stands for demand/direct deposit account. Keeping a separate one with a low balance for internet accounts can help keep a primary account unaffected if paypal or other internet services initiate a transfer without your permission (could also be due to a compromised paypal account).

the generated card for me is somehow reversed. makes me wonder if the image is captured on the client-side and then uploaded.

According to the FAQ: https://lwn.net/op/FAQ.lwn#general
> What does LWN stand for, anyway?
> LWN, initially, was "Linux Weekly News." That name has been deemphasized over time as we have moved beyond just the weekly coverage, and as we have looked at the free software community as a whole. We have yet to come up with a better meaning for LWN, however.

Re:Ask HN: No formal software education – is there hope for me?
on Sunday May 03, 2020 @09:52PM (#23063771)
This answer resonates with me a lot. I was in a what I consider to be a similar situation as the OP three years ago. Graduated with a fine arts degree, made a switch in developing software skills, took a few quarters of community college classes. Had over 200 side projects when I started applying around in 2017. I did a year at a part-time internship for almost no pay. In 2018, I started applying again with much more responses, and I finally landed a full-time software engineering role with my current company. Been really enjoying working here.

Re:Ask HN: What are weird and/or novel ways to do web UIs?
on Thursday October 03, 2019 @12:55PM (#21149097)
Back in design school, web portfolios could get pretty interesting. One novel way was to put up a collaborative google doc with some initial info that visitors could edit.
An example of this was http://carlyayres.com/ though it has since been updated to a non-editable page.
