Your Chromecast should still keep working. The replacement streamer device would still work too, or the last gen chromecast with google tv.

Apple TV also works if you have a Mac. Many TVs also have Chromecast built in. Miracast is another option but it's really terrible. Steam Link is another option. There are also wireless HDMI adapters.
What is an “NNN”? I can guess the general context, but I couldn’t find anything with an Internet search.
Other way around; Chromecast beat Airplay to market by like four years I think. But yes, they're very comparable technologies.
For future reference, does "code formatting" provide a way to distinguish

list := #(1 8 4 5 3).

from

! Syntax Error: Nothing more expected

as-well-as from comment text ?
The brand has been "Google Cast" for a long time, though. None of the TVs with this stuff built in have mentioned "Chromecast" in a very long time.
SHOW HN: I built a simple Journaling tool to track stress levels
Hello there!
I'm about to release on ProductHunt my first free product and I'm looking for last-minute feedback.
I'm pretty excited as it's the first time I built a project from start to finish AND actually showed it to the world (the previous projects will keep on sleeping on their private repos...).

Stack: NextJS, MongoDB (Thanks, mongoose), Tailwind, Vercel

I built this to encourage people to start a daily journaling habit, as its positive effects on mental health have been proven, it's something I personally felt I could use, and I've been using it for the last 3 or so months.

Every time a user writes something, they're asked to indicate how stressed they feel at that moment, and the stress level is calculated as a monthly average of those ratings.

Here's the link so you can see for yourself: https://www.letitallout.xyz/

Please don't hold back, if you feel that something sucks, say it!
Every critique is welcome.
Part of it is how often do people buy TVs? I doubt if I've bought one in over 15 years.
> changes in the structure of the industry, or the laws, could modify it.

which i also argued, is at best pointless, but at worst harmful.

I don't really think it a problem that there exists superstars that take the majority of the money spent on music. The only argument for changing it is that there are musicians that "deserve" to receive more revenue than they currently do, rather than an explanation of why. Equality of outcome is not sufficiently good to add regulation or restrictions to prevent what occurs today.
It's very widespread. But if you look past the stock trade and the pop-psychology, it's pretty clear that Intel today is on a different trajectory than they were 10 years ago. In that time they've changed CEOs, reframed their roadmap, kickstarted auxiliary businesses and invested in RISC development. The catastrophic potential of Intel losing desktop market share was overstated and over-anticipated. Now, cutting off their desktop segment is practically the most profitable route.

HN has a habit of jumping the gun on financials without accounting for what the market is doing or where things are going. Intel doesn't have the dominant position they used to, but their trajectory is heads-I-win-tails-you-lose levels of redundant. Their roadmap is the good kind of boring, and they're the only fab I know that has TSMC's flagship products in the crosshairs. We're desperately trying to declare Intel dead while already anticipating their resurrection; that suggests to me there's a good pulse left.
On most, no, little to no braking force is taken up by the fasteners themselves. For most designs the calipers sit inside a frame that takes the braking force, and the fasteners simply hold the caliper in alignment within that frame.

This wikipedia photo happens to be from an AMC pacer, but it does show the frame that takes the braking torque load (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Detail_of_-_AMC_Pacer_-_r...). The frame is the lighter metal object at the top above the top edge of one of the pads.
Well, they fetch some money. Still not more than the sticker price when they were new, generally, definitively not more than the inflation-adjusted price!
I would love to play around with some consumer 3D stuff. Either some kit to take anaglyphs or a 3D camera. The Nintendo 3DS has a 3D camera as far as I understand and several years ago 3D image cellphones where a thing, too (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_3D-enabled_mobile_phon...) This seems to have turned into a dead end, though. Oh, and the Lytro, too.
Show HN: I made an iOS app that uses depth maps in Portraits to create effects
I made a video about it that you can watch here,
https://youtu.be/WTGE8pacWm4

But the short version is: iPhone/iPad photos taken in Portrait mode contain depth information to be used to apply lens blur and lighting effects. I thought there was a lot of potential to use this depth information for other kinds of effects, so I made an app with a set of filters, most configurable with sliders, that you can apply to your Portraits. You can also save out the depth map or portrait effects matte to experiment with on your own. The app is free to use, but requires a small purchase to save photos.

You can try the app here:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/portrait-effects-studio/id6504...

Since I haven't yet localized the app for other languages, it's currently only available in the core Anglosphere (US, UK, Canada, Australia, and that island that gets left off a bunch of maps). I wanted to make it available in the EU, but I haven't been able to.

In addition to getting feedback, I'm happy to answer questions.
What is an AI workflow? What does "embed API endpoint" mean? What is a concrete example of something I would use it for? Why would I use it as opposed to other solutions?
Unless I'm misunderstanding how it all works, it's just attrsets underneath. Like JSON objects with some semantics given to them - and those (and their YAML counterparts) are not exactly great. In particular, I believe (I could be wrong here) this results in sometimes hard-to-understand error traces if something gets messed up.
Oh no, look at me still not giving them any money
What do you know about what ppl like? The car-centric infrastructure wasn’t built because a thousand would-be-drivers (consumers) voted for it and it won’t be changed to something else because a thousand reluctant drivers vote against it. People can “ask” all they want but like you reference the politicians’ phone lines are probably busy with the people they actually work for.

And politicians do like their money but it’s not fundamentally so frivolous. You can try to not get millions in funding from some industry or other but good look in the election when the other candidates invests hundreds of thousands in attack ads against you. Which you won’t be able to do even if you wanted to because you have no money. Politicians are greedy and corrupt but that’s because the system selects for that.

Ultimately you can say that the ppl do not want change hard enough to dedicate hours a week to work for the issues that you so easily list in a comment and then dismiss as impossible because ppl apparently do not want it. But that’s not a revealed preference for the status quo. You cannot make that conclusion.
I don't even understand the "it's fast" argument. I'm on an 8 year old computer, and pages load "instantly" (according to the profiler, ~50 ms after getting the response, which takes a few hundred ms anyway) in Librewolf. Are people getting out high-speed cameras to measure the difference here? I expect that as malware blocking becomes less effective in Chromium, it will end up being overall slower as well.
Ha! :) smh. Nah, it's relevant. What, you don't think it's in Downtown? Embarcadero's the only downtown for you?
Well, back in the day (and I feel old now), the ability to cast a chrome tab to a TV with a $30 dongle was huge. It was a great brand until it got commoditized.
Ah! I was wondering if that might be what you were intending to say, but not being familiar with app development I wasn't sure.
Surely this is glossing over the fact that the reason money is being made from streams is due to adverts, and that the same people who would pirate music back in the day are a subset of the people who block ads.
Wait til you hear about Play Store. Been over a decade and I still cringe.
That was very well put. I noticed an increasing negativity in Show HN posts lately. The usual inquisitive and supportive comments are being replaced with straight up negative and dismissive ones (or maybe it was always like this and people being nice is just a fabricated memory of mine)
>the original

FYI Google stopped pushing critical security updates to the 1st gen Chromecast already. I'm not saying it joined a botnet already but maybe~ https://support.google.com/product-documentation/answer/1023...
but to me these are - again - a user induced problems. I'm interested if a user doesn't do stupid things, should they still afraid that a standard extern C code could throw? Say, std::sprintf() which if I'm not mistaken boils down to C directly? Are there cases where C std lib could throw without a "help from a user"?
This is one of those moments people tell you 'not to feed the trolls', but if you ignore them, they have a platform to spew nonsense.

no its what i thought too and i felt like this is a tough problem especially when you get into enterprise space with a dozen heterogeneous stacks and outdated vendor APIs

if it was this easy then we would see a ton of layoffs but you can't because all these individual pieces and their idiosyncrasies cannot be streamlined and its cheaper to just have human interfaces.

So many cases I've seen where "hey this doesn't work the way it should because the vendor hired bunch of Indians who are paid by the hour didn't bother to spellcheck or use proper patterns because why would they when you pay them to bill more hours"

We'll see more and more result of negligent managers throwing third world labor at critical systems and its impact on the economy down the road. This is something only fixable by other humans and not any AI or SaaS

Handy tip: instead of Python you can use `xxd` to inspect hex strings:

printf '{HEX STRING}' | xxd -r -p | xxd

Make sure to omit the leading `\x`. e.g.,

Highly. Dirk Riehle has a post from 2009 where he talks about the business benefits of Open Source community. I quote from it in the Fair Source FAQ:

Oh so that's why I can't cast to my Sonos speakers?

I thought they just couldn't work out how to make casting work, like how they still haven't figured out RSTP.
Presumably you'll need to either use the correct WAL file or accept some very slight data staleness during the 9.0 sync process (also the direct read trick sounds great to me where permissible - EDIT: question about how much of your warranty does that void removed because the answer's already written up here - https://rqlite.io/docs/faq/#can-i-read-the-sqlite-file-direc...).

I would -imagine- that 'slight staleness' won't matter for your use case (I'm pretty confident that for the sort of configs I'm considering rqlite for that'll be the case, at least) but it's probably worth triple checking when configs are involved.

> It's like taxi drivers used to train self driving cabs to automate themselves out of jobs

I was talking to a taxi driver pre-pandemic (from his passenger seat) who was enthusiastic about FSD even though it would end his career.

And if FSD AI don't perform some of their training by trying to predict what all the other cars will do, they're missing out on a huge opportunity.

More broadly, I think this pattern applies to all labour: surveillance is easy, humanoid robots exist.
A Diamond DA40 does around 28 miles per gallon (< 9 litres per 100 km) at 60% power cruise (5.1 gallons per hour at 124 knots). Sure, more than a car, particularly if you add takeoff and landing (though also note that in a plane you can go in a straight line rather than following roads). But it's not outrageously more so, and of course in aggregate much less than what cars consume now.

The environmental impact is not the main issue here.
Finding Nash equilibria through simulation
To support your point, this is quite literally a part of a move to decrease them from 120k to 100k employees. Who decided those arbitrary numbers, and that 100k (not 105, not 95) was the goal needed for the best interest of the company, while not even linking it to specific division within it ? Clearly not someone in touch with the day to day and nitty gritty. Not because that number is good (or not), I don't know Dell enough for that. but because that number is too round, too perfect, to be anything else than a spreadsheet result, though displayed in a "Business Intelligence" suite of course. I'm sure the guy even had a great tie.

I understand it makes sense financially and that once companies become that big they are essentially playing two game (what they do game, with the workers, and what they're worth game, with the investors), but this really doesn't help with the dissociation more and more people are feeling between the stock market / modern management of companies by mba on one side, and their "real" every day live on the other.

I'm very lucky to be well off enough to not have to worry about things like that anymore, but I can't imagine the rage you must feel when fired not because you made a mistake, or are bad, or your project failed, or your division is doing poorly, or your company is, but because someone decided the employee ticker must reach that number, and now if it's not done the market will decide it's a failure, so you won the inverse lottery.
Defeating Diabetes (Type 2)
I really dislike the way this slide deck is written. It's rewriting a failure of management (bad project planning, too few people for the workload) and presenting it a failure by all the team members.

"The Hero decides that, despite this, ..."

"No matter what they're told about not doing this."

"The team doesn't realize..."

"Heroism is low risk, and easy to do."

"Help the Hero figure out what they should do instead."

"But the Hero won't let it go."

I suspect the likely scenario that prompted this document to be written was something like a manager facing low morale from his team, and has just been asked to explain why there was a catastrophic failure that he hadn't communicated upwards. Likely, he hadn't been doing his job properly, had no idea how much work his team was actually doing, the team was massively overloaded and worried about the job culls in other departments, worried because their boss kept saying things like "this was due yesterday", and so had been doing everything possible to stop the proverbial hitting the fan... and one day it reached bursting point, and they simply couldn't cope with all the work, despite already being forced to do overtime. Maybe some of them had even quit as a result, and complained to HR about the work-life balance in the team.

But the team leader can't possibly be at fault. This is the management spin on it: it's all the team member's fault, and the poor manager had no idea what was going on, not because he was a terrible manager, but because the team had been deliberately hiding all the work they were doing from him, they didn't want to go home to their wives and kids, but were choosing to spend their evenings working on secret projects to stoke their own egos or deal with their own insecurities, and concealing all the extra work from their managers.
> Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, the case that overturned Chevron, repeatedly cites Marbury v. Madison, the case where the Supreme Court vastly expanded its own power by, in part, giving itself the extra-constitutional power to declare things unconstitutional.

If you're claiming Marbury v. Madison to be wrong... well, that was an unexpected twist and I must say I've totally misread your comment.

I thought the main thrust of the argument in Loper was s706 of the Administrative Procedure Act though.

musing: It feels like Google has a reputation of creating a bunch of products and killing them off within 3-5 years.

It seems like this helps with initial adoption of the product (backed by Google!) but erodes trust in the brand every time they axe a cult-favorite ("why would I invest time in ${x} when they'll probably just kill it off in a couple of years anyway..?")

Would it be better if Google launched these products subsidiaries without (obvious) links to Google?

It was pretty fun that we could actually run games from ~40 year old tape. It impressed my son. It also impressed me actually, because I remember how often those things broke...
Of course, I agree with you at the individual level.

However, at the macro level, I'm more than happy to see jobs destroyed at insert sh1tty company for the good of both individuals, and the good of the nation/world. Short term pain, long term gain. And don't tell me the workers X/twitter can't get re-hired or land on their feet elsewhere ... so actually, I'm not that sympathetic. Sometimes you have to take a stand.

And that sociopathic cesspool you're speaking of? ... yes, that's right, you could be talking about X/twitter.

>>The models do not account for attack drones which kills most Russian soldiers these days.

If you have data that reliably attributes Russian casualties to the weapon systems causing them, I'd love to see it. I know that Twitter and Tiktok are chock full of Ukrainian "drone drop" videos but again that is part of the information operations and shouldn't be taken as an accurate reflection of the battlespace writ large. That said....if they were killing >500 Russians daily with drones, which almost all have recordable video footage, we should be seeing maybe 10x as much footage as is getting released.

One work-around would be to find the most appropriate weapon system that IS in the model and see if it could cover FPV drones. I think QJM aggregates weapons systems but goes down to the squad level, so maybe it accounts for specialized infantry tasks like snipers. Insert a weapon into the model that is a "sniper" but with a 10km effective range. Then run the numbers again. That still ignores the effects of Russian EW but hey...this is an iterative process.
16-28 is the gold of demographics. all those numbers skew A LOT to the lower end of the age range to pretend they have that demographic when in reality they do not.
