Re:Say goodbye to hold music on Thursday October 01, 2020 @12:53AM (#24647465)
I prefer that to listening to the repetitive hold music.
For those that didn't get it, turn your sound on.
I think they fixed it partially. Last time I got instacart delivered the options were: keep your current tip, 5%, 10%, and 15%. You're no longer allowed to edit your tip to 0 but if you did tip a large sum then you can reduce your tip to 5%.

Yep, it's possible. Looks like you need to prevent the default behavior of the wheel event. Here's a quick example I whipped up: https://codepen.io/yefim/pen/drroer and here's a 5 year old Stack Overflow answer about it: https://stackoverflow.com/a/14810932/597260

Neither is Instagram. Maybe it's related.
Congrats on the new release!

Re:Bringing Wide Color to Instagram on Monday January 09, 2017 @03:51PM (#13359671)
Do you know why that is the case? Do Android devices project the Display P3 color space into the sRGB color space?
Re:GitHub Report Card on Wednesday January 04, 2017 @01:23PM (#13320701)
Please include a checkbox to exclude private repos. I have a lot of private work that I just can't let anyone see. Thank you!
Re:Ask HN: How to improve vim productivity and workflow? on Monday November 14, 2016 @08:54PM (#12955005)
Different strokes for different folks but I really love vim split views. I have Ctrl-h, Ctrl-j, Ctrl-k, and Ctrl-l mapped to navigate between my splits with ease as well as using the vim plugin Golden Ratio[1] to make the current focused split larger than the rest. If you really need the tree view, I've heard great things about NERD Tree[2]. Feel free to check out my .vimrc[3] for other neat tricks and plugins :)

Re:Show HN: Building a Deep Learning Powered GIF Search Engine on Thursday November 03, 2016 @02:41PM (#12866724)
Here's a direct link to the GIF search engine: http://deepgif.tarzain.com/

It's really incredible how it finds phrases like "clapping man" and "laughing dog".

A link to the blog post would be more descriptive and insightful.

Congrats Redspread team!
Along the same lines, did you get permission from Henry to use his name?
Re:Hyperloop – The Missing Ruby Front-end Library on Tuesday October 04, 2016 @06:43AM (#12634550)
You were so busy wondering if you could do it you never stopped to ask if you should.
How does this compare to Express's cookie parser (https://github.com/expressjs/cookie-parser) which relies on cookie (https://github.com/jshttp/cookie) for parsing?

How are they vetting drivers? I wouldn't trust a driver if all they had to do to qualify is download the Waze app.
Does this apply to Chromium? Because if not, I'm definitely switching.

And here I was thinking the bubble was beginning to pop.
Now it's going to be much harder to send messages from your friend's phone when your phone dies. Before you could use an incognito tab, and now you have to log out of the Messenger app entirely and log in as another user.
Re:Show HN: Deploy Docker Image to AWS Elastic Beanstalk on Thursday May 12, 2016 @07:33PM (#11687572)
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing :) I've been looking for tools to abstract the process even more so than I'm doing now. Will definitely try to get Gantree up and running.
