Hello HN, long time lurker, probably first time posterI made an app that lets you browse your Apple Music library as a crate of records. (Sorry Spotify users, - I tried, but Spotify seem to be oddly developer hostile :( )Been a vinyl collector for years and always felt like streaming apps 'playlist everything!' kill the "intentionality" of listening to records. So I built something.Wax Crate...

Ask HN: High Quality Screencasts

Posted by nasht100 on Tuesday April 14, 2020 @06:54PM

Someone I know purposely clicks like on everything they see on facebook in an effort to create noise and mask their actual interest. If you like everything, then you like nothing.. Seems like something that could be automated and implemented on a wider scale. Does such a tool exist? Would it even...

I've been wondering what would cause my new MBP to start crawling periodically with super high kernel_task usage (600%). Is this kind of throttling common practice for Windows or Linux? To me, this echoes what's been happening with iOS slowdowns and feels to me like compensating for poor cooling on the MBPs.

Love the app! Just bought a license :)

Re: Art history - It would be great to see a blurb about the artwork in the app to put some context to the work. eg: https://www.google.com/culturalinstitute/beta/asset/fanatics...
