huttyoop·2 anni fa·discussLove the hacker asthetic.I do wonder if there is a practical reason to do it this way.Custom PCB fabs are so commoditized at this point.Is solder a good “wire” in this application?Would neat wire bends on a breadboard, ala Ben Eater, serve the same or better purpose?Maybe the turnaround on experimentation is faster when done this way? Definitely looks nice to be able to “set it and forget it”.Either way I love the build and think it’s a super cool hack to solve their problem.
huttyoop·2 anni fa·discuss> Because people are killing insurance company executivesThen share an opinion on that.> in the hopes of getting a maybe 5% savings break on their health insurance costs?You were so close.All you had to do was condescendingly presuppose a motive, and fabricate a statistic to make it about your desired topic again.
huttyoop·2 anni fa·discussBut why are you bringing it up, tptacek?You’re even replying this to a comment that literally contains “I agree with you”.It’s like stepping between your friends complaining about jet lag to talk about how your corner bodega raised the price of bubble gum.If you just want to talk about providers then write a screed on it. People will comment their opinions on the subject you want to discuss.
huttyoop·2 anni fa·discussI really wish HN would have a ‘video’ tag link at the top next to ‘new’, ‘show’, and ‘ask’.Over the years I’ve written various scripts and tools to only grab yt links or posts with [video] in the title from the HN api.Be nice if I could just click the link at the top rather than rebuilding each time I lose the old ones. :)
