This is the first time I've read about this. Thank you. I never noticed because OpenCode just shows you the context window usage as a %.

There is a huge community on Reddit for Chinese watches https://www.reddit.com/r/ChineseWatches/

I bought a Bauhaus style watch from a brand called Seestern for $65. https://www.reddit.com/r/ChineseWatches/comments/1jjkf52/see...

mvspace.com was a really good phishing site back in the day when MySpace was an actual thing.

Depends on who's behind the keyboard.

Re:Lion Cove: Intel's P-Core Roars on Friday September 27, 2024 @08:12PM (#41676775)
It looks awesome. I am definitely going to purchase a 14" Lunar Lake laptop from either Asus (Zenbook S14) or Lenovo (Yoga Slim). I really like my 14" MBP form factor and these look like they would be great for running Linux.

> We however found that our co-working space - WeWork has an excellent server hosting solution. We could put the servers on the same floor as our office and they would provide redundant power supply, cooling and internet connection. This entire package is available at a much cheaper rate and we immediately jumped on this. Right now all servers are securely running in our office.

Nice! How much does this cost?

There are card-sized SBCs with the Intel N100. Very cool. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41007348

The current Model Y in production is known to have significantly better suspension than Model Ys produced 2020-2022. If you have an older Model Y, you can upgrade the suspension (cost about $2k with installation).

Re:HexWalk – Hex Editor/Viewer/Analyzer on Tuesday February 20, 2024 @02:18PM (#39445605)
During my first job out of college, I was assigned to maintain an ancient Windows codebase. A few different groups of people had been assigned to maintain this specific website and the people responsible before me had hardcoded secrets in the compiled executables but had excluded them from the source code. My experience using hex editors from tinkering with old video games (Diablo 2) gave me the skills to extract the secrets for work.

I'll try this out! I use a Slack DM with myself to persist scratch notes. The main benefit of this is that I'd easily be able to view notes on my phone and other computers.

Re:Ask HN: IBM Model M Keyboard Alternative? on Tuesday July 25, 2023 @04:06PM (#36868554)
Model M and Unicomp keyboards are way louder than typical Cherry MX and similar keyboards. It is very apparent from watching some videos on Youtube. For a completely silent keyboard check out the Realforce R2 (PFU Limited edition): https://fujitsuscannerstore.com/cg01000-290301/ It goes on sale for $220.

I'm surprised there was a 12-month program to become a sourcer.
