Show HN: Get GitHub Links from VS Code
Hi HN community,

A few friends of mine and I built Tym – a small VS Code extension that makes it easy to share code snippets and get feedback from your teammates.

With Tym, you can select a snippet of code and add a question or terminal dump right from the right-click menu. Your teammates can then easily browse your code in a web-based version of VSCode, even if you have uncommitted changes (we make a commit to a hidden git reference in your repo).

We made Tym so we don’t have to go to Github and find lines every time we want to share a piece of code. With Tym, you can stay in VS Code and easily share links to your code.

Tym is free and all the code is hosted on your Github repository. So only people who have permission to access your repo can see your code snippets.

We hope you’ll give it a try and let us know what you think! We’re passionate about improving code collaboration, you can join our discord or follow us on twitter to discuss more!

Next.js was an OSS project before ZEIT (now Vercel) hired on the developers, if memory serves. Next.js was certainly not the main vision for Guillermo as far as I know, but it ended up becoming a very large focal point due to its widespread success. Now, Vercel has an entire ecosystem - Next.js is certainly a 'product' in that regard.
I almost forgot: sleep.

For a long time I refused to think this mattered, because when one is chronically sleep-deprived, the baseline of feeling like pure crap will start to feel normal.
Branchy-ness usually also correlates with cache friendliness (e.g. branchy code is usually a server app calling lots of different functions, with lots of virtual function calls), and Graviton2 has an abnormally small L3 cache relative to its x86 competitors. If I had to hazard a guess I'd say heavily vectorized code will also perform worse especially compared to Intel instances where you have AVX-512.
The terminal is a surprisingly performance intensive application. When we built an initial prototype in electron, it was struggling to render full screens of text output on large screens. We want to support 144 fps on 4K monitors.

Additionally, Warp has GUI elements like blocks and context menus. We talk about performance because when we discuss our features, people automatically assume it's going to be sluggish.
> We are actively working on a11y!

Glad to hear it! I'm working on a Rust GUI accessibility library that might interest you:

If you'd like to email me so we can compare implementation approaches and perhaps avoid duplicated effort, my email address is in my HN profile.
You’re right, but it’s important not to throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Many people drive cars. Some people kill others with theirs, sometimes intentionally. We should not then assume every person driving a car is on the warpath.
Everyone offering "platforms" these days. It's getting really tired and I can't be bothering to pay attention. Tools is where it's at, not platforms.
Thanks for the feedback.

Re: codes: yup, that's a bug and will be fixed (or at least the obvious one will be...)

Re: performance - this is on our radar, and we'll keep chipping away at making things a little better as we go. We do have some limits based on system characteristics, but the primitives available to chrome extensions for system information are limited (praise WECG - there's a lot of bad that can be done with too much info).

Re: ballpark dates - This is on our radar, but is both a thorny interaction and below the priority of a few other things users commonly request. No firm commitments on dates as such... but yes, it's a useful tool when you know you want a "May" vacation, and you want a reasonably priced flight that is comfortable.
How Github uses Github (Actions) to build Github. Yes I'm this old.
Sick people by and large don't choose to be sick. Picking a major with no earning potential and borrowing 100K to complete it shouldn't be my (the taxpayer's) problem
I loved what they did in Altered Carbon S01: the concept of double-sleeving, where the same consciousness inhabits 2 bodies at the same time.

Given that (methinks) consciousness is just a sensation generated by a feedback loop, with the exception of a mild confusion caused by the fact that discrete identity (Theseus' Ship) is just a human construct (as opposed to a continuum with everything connected), there is nothing special about this.

For the person who believes they're Jesus, they are really Jesus. How would you know that you are yourself? What if you suffer form amnesia? Make it temporal and you are really onto some mind-bending territory.

Teleportation suffers from the same affliction: https://existentialcomics.com/comic/1

Here's my take: Consciousness is real only to the one experiencing it. Just like Love - yeah, it's as real as anything can be for the subject experiencing it, but for everybody else the only real thing about that Love is how it manifests.

Maybe you can separate it from the 'machine' running it, put it in another machine, but is it the same? Yes, of course, for the machine(s) running it, not so much for the outside observers that cannot experience a given sensation outside themselves.

The individual =/= its (current) consciousness, therefore uploading consciousness achieves just as much as 'uploading' my genes into a new individual (a child). Something will go on existing, but it's not me. It's another machine that might have my memories and SENSE of identity.
Minor thing, but I have both ADHD and likely depression (therapist thinks so, psychiatrist thinks so but has not formally diagnosed me).

One thing that I was surprised worked well was SAM-E, a supplement that has shown results in treating both ADHD/Depression. I don't give too much credence to supplements, but this dealt with 2 things I struggle with and since taking it I have made progress feeling better. (Now, whether it was just coincidence or it did anything I can't say).

The other thing is that Vitamin D is incredibly important and most people are deficient, and there have been a lot of studies recently showing that we should be getting even more than is already recommended. I've been taking a form of D3 (started around the same time as SAM-E).
Except this is the opposite of the actual problem. There's plenty of cash floating around right now: it's why inflation is high. We're finally hitting real supply limits. It's the hottest job market in most people's lifetimes.

The fact of the matter is most small businesses are crap businesses. They also abuse their workers in ways big business can't get away with, both illegally and legally. If you work for an employer with <30 employees and they don't provide health insurance, why would you stick around right now?
Being banned from Twitter isn't censorship. Donald Trump wasn't "censored" for having a different opinion. Nor was Donald Trump "censored" in any way that actually interfered with or hindered his ability to communicate.

People really should stop picking Trump as an example of a martyr to the cause of free speech, he's a really bad one. I know they want the narrative to be that "cancel culture" was just so powerful that it silenced a sitting President but it's just not working out that way.
Or they're trying to get me to use Javascript.
"Implicit political context" is just a very roundabout way of saying "prevalent ideology".

The ideology is the context.

You'll probably want to take that up with OFAC and your financial institution, in that order, because your financial institution will not admit you are on the OFAC list.

Check here.
https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/

If you are on there. You're out of luck unless you can convince the Federal Government to change it's stance, but that is the authoritative source for financial institutions for what accounts/assets need to be frozen.

Also keep in mind:
Stop any direct deposits immediately. Sanctions will not stop money flowing into your accounts. Your finances are basically roach motels.

It may not be instant, but you will start to see more and more get locked up tighter than Fort Knox. If you can get it out, do it now.

Good luck.

We are too far apart in our assumptions and definitions to have a meaningful discussion.
Isn’t most of this due to lockdowns and shifting spending to online?
This could be a whole lot of causes. For example, our home access points by default isolated each wireless client, so they couldn't even see each other, much less a central server.
Seems like an obvious use. Not getting caught doing so while managing a large number of drones may be a different matter.
You yourself are the biggest liability to the organization. People like you is how we ended up in this HR power mad world to begin with.

You don't need to laborousoly explain to me office romance, yet another obvious power trip.

These policies can hypothetically make sense, sure. You want to talk about a power imbalance, contemplate by whom and how these things are enforced and whether false positives are possible.

Are we dealing with subjective or objective things? And sweetness, this is a rhetorical question, I know your answer. I'll ask another one, have you yourself been in many successful relationships? Any?

Tell me, are you the HR lady human person in this situation or just some random busybody?

Is this not a whole profession that supposedly requires training?

> If a boss and a subordinate truly fall in love and want to live a life together more than anything else, then they can try to find alternative roles in the organization where one person in the relationship doesn't report to each other.

Gee, thanks for your permission, and what and who are you in all of this? Is this point really flying over your head? Suppose they, as human people, are in this process of figuring it all out.

Or that they aren't a couple at all and you misread.

And there you go and parachute in with your nonsense and force the issue for them on explicitly your personal terms, not some company policy.

I don’t think so. I think they’re running the same playbook as most investor-backed dev tool companies. They just forgot you’re supposed to reach critical mass before you start the mandatory invasive data harvesting.
This seems like it could be a good fit for my team (and we have been discussing this kind of caching).

We frequently (~ once per second) run queries over relations that are increasing at a rate of ~100 rows per second (append only, no updates).

Could this cause any performance concerns for ReadySet? How much control do we have over the frequency of reconstruction of cached data based on the flow graph?
Wasn't it Gibson himself who wrote this, right in the beginning of Zero History if I'm not mistaken, when Cayce is meeting with some French artist in a warehouse in the outskirts of Oakland? The artist is making an augmented reality installation of a cyber whale that you can see in real life with mirrorshades.

And then the artist says 'the internet is e-ver-ting'.

I read Neuromancer a few weeks ago, and couldn't get into it. I love books like Snow Crash and The Three Body Problem, but didn't track what was happening Neuromancer half the time and the other half I didn't care. I realize this is probably a personal defect, as so many others laud it as a masterpiece.

They have a complete telemetry section on their website where it also states that no input or output data is collected.
Or lead lettering. Yeah.

Publishing used to be a multi-person job where layout, typesetting, and multiple other tasks where done on dedicated workspaces by seperate people.

Desktop-publishing is really that: being able to do it on the top of a single desk (as a single person).
Maybe this is false nostalgia, but I feel like this is more true post smartphones than pre-smartphones. More people will just pop out their phones and check their messages/mail/play a game rather than talk to people around them; a fair amount of casual interactions were bored people stuck waiting in the same place.

Among other things, it is disturbing how chatty a lot of things are. (Did you know Apple Mail keeps track of which account you email different people with and wants to send that to configuration.apple.com, even if you have carefully disabled everything Icloud related?)

There's a similar tool for Linux, but I usually keep a networkless VM around for playing with potentially sketchy things.
Is that your experience in large cities? I'm sorry to hear it. You can see, in this discussion, that many others have a different one. Maybe there's a way to access those experiences. I do find that it depends on how I approach the city and people - openness, trust, and compassion can strongly impact the responses I get. Pushiness, suspicion, and alarm gets poor responses - for one thing, nobody has time for it. In fact, when I'm feeling that way, if I want to shift my perspective I repeat to myself, 'trust, care, help'.
Well, we have information on what it looks like when governments seize someone’s land and destroy their house and their life and sometimes their livelihood in the name of Progress (and/or lining the pockets of someone involved with the project). Turns out it’s not actually a pretty picture, even in nations like the US which elevate property rights (see eg Kelo vs New London).

“Society” can be quite cruel and inhumane to individuals, who need strong rights to protect themselves — including property rights.
Yes, like this art installation by Jim Campbell back in 2006: https://bampfa.org/program/jim-campbell-home-movies

Only power and ground were supplied through the two wires connecting to each pixel. The pixels were PIC micro-controllers which contained the brightness levels for that pixel, which would play on loop independently. As I remember, the whole array would loose power intermittently to deal with clock drift.

I feel like hardcoding shebang paths and not implementing a good widespread PATH whitelisting/safety mechanism has created far more problems than we should ever have had to deal with.

It strikes me that not for the two above items we might be able to solve this with $PATH resolution and directories filled with symlinks to our "development versions."
On the other hand only Nix (to my knowledge) guarantees truly reproducible builds.

It helps that people who are into Nix most often use NixOS. NixOS is the only distro I've written packages for. It's not even particularly hard since there's a lot of inspiration to find in the official and community repos + people sharing personal configurations.

The UX wasn't the best but it's improving.

It remains extremely reliable which is not something that you could say of other systems.
I listened to his podcast. It is really good and I enjoy it. But I found something even better that worked for me which is the audiobook Self-coaching by Dr. J Luciani. It is on audible for free right now if you have an account.

I was put off by the title (self-coaching) but boy was I wrong and I now highly recommend it. For my own story I came to terms with being "smart enough" for life. This is after years of anxiety and depression from high school onward. I am amazed given my suffering that I did as well as I did!

Also medication does work. I ran the gamut of them until I settled on Wellbutrin XL. It also took me 25 years to figure out that alcohol, while it relieves my anxiety and depression in the moment, just makes things 10x worse. That and I need to eat properly. So I limit my drinking as much as possible and I know not to drink when stressed.

It gets better my friend.
Don't fear the SSRIs. They get a bad rap because they've been blown way out of proportion from what I've seen. I have a co-worker who didn't just treat his MCD with Zoloft, IT WAS CURED ENTIRELY. He hasn't needed it or taken it for something like 5 years now and he's still just fine.

The truly dangerous ones - and this is also not as bad as it sounds most of the time - are MAOIs. They're reserved as a last-line treatment in most cases, and it's because SSRIs are quite a bit safer the vast majority of the time.

So don't let the bad rap SSRIs get scare you off; talk to a doctor before you come to any conclusions whatsoever!

Worst side effect I ever had on an SSRI was from paroxetine, and it actually worked to my benefit, at least until I had to get off the medication for financial reasons. Let's just say the woman I was dating at the time was REALLY happy to never find herself "unsatisfied" if you know what I mean! I was never satisfied, though, so yeah that was kind of a bummer, but that was honestly the worst side effect I ever experienced. And I've been on nearly every one there is (at least in the US anyway).
A lot of the snooping does have an actual role with search - they need to guess the intended domain of the query [1]

Welcome to my side project, a better organized directory of domain specific search engines, based on duckduckgo !bang operators https://github.com/MoserMichael/duckduckbang/blob/master/REA...

The project also adds some explanation on the role of each search engine, also the page has been auto translated into several languages.

Ideally this directory/thesaurus should help you with finding an appropriated domain specific search engine for a given task, without the need of snooping on the part of the search engine.

[1] of course they also need the snooping for targeted advertising, but that's a different story!

If they know it's just anxiety then that's a completely different situation from what we were talking about, isn't it?

Being bad at handling anxiety is a very different thing from not knowing if it's just anxiety.

If you know it's anxiety then you know it's a bad reason to show up late. It's forgivable but that doesn't change it.
Sorry, this diff is taking too long to generate
Strange that the section on password managers doesn't mention LastPass, and the 2FA section doesn't mention Google Auth. If they have criticisms of those tools, it would be better to share them. Don't just ignore them, they are two of the most popular tools in personal security.
Very well said. Just a small addendum.

As someone who grew up in the south, I'd just like to mention that "Bless Your Heart" could be used in a derogatory manner.

But, most often, it's used to express genuine concern for someone going through a tough time.

So, don't automatically assume it's an insult :-).
Wondering if, by “elitist”, GP meant more like “out of reach to many laypeople because of learning curve.” Is there a good single word for that? “Difficult” and “complex” aren’t quite right.

Anyway - you’re right, nothing at all wrong with wanting choice. I think the point being made here though is that “layperson gravity” / mass market appeals / lowest common denominator is going to mean that tuneable web search will be a niche product, forever. Even if we’d both like that niche.
I think virtue signalling should actually be happening more, not in the sense "I pretend to care", but in the sense "Those are the values I stand for".

I see a lot of ambiguous statements these days, from too many people. People not wanting to "take sides", but in reality not yet willing to say they only stand for their personal interests, if not for a return to the law of the fittest.

What do you stand for?

OP here.

I do use Hugin for panoramas, and it's fantastic. I was going to write a bonus section about it but I wanted to get the post out of the way as I had been working on it for too long already. I will add it in a future update.
Fair, by using bearer tokens you don't have full control over how they are used by downstream parties.

But that's a bit like saying:

I have a metal key that I only give to trusted people, but someone I trust can make a copy of that key and give me back the original. Therefore I can't trust metal keys.

I guess I'd want to dig in a bit more to understand the use case. Who is deciding to use the other service? Who is accepting the long lived token? (you? If so, why? The issuer? Well then, they made that choice.)
The older I get the less I want to waste time on customizing things.
