Show HN: A Free Tool for Planning Poker and Agile Retrospectives
Hi HN,

I built a free tool called scrum.host to help Agile teams run two key processes more easily:

- Planning Poker for task estimation.

- Retrospectives, with anonymous feedback sharing and prioritization (works live or asynchronously).

I made this after struggling with manual methods and finding most tools either overcomplicated or locked behind paywalls. scrum.host is:

- Free to use (no hidden fees).

- No sign-up required, even for hosting rooms.

- Lightweight and focused, built to solve the problem without adding clutter.

Would love for you to try it and share your thoughts. Feedback, suggestions, and critiques are all welcome!

definite maybe, but it is not only that.
Dev productivity or standardization?
I prefer to just run tsc to check for type errors on GitHub commits instead of needing them for every change.

And yeah inline types are more verbose but I prefer to use .d.ts files for definitions and then declare with a comment (vim lets me move to definitions with ctrl-] which is nice).

I also come from a Go background so I actively don't like using the more esoteric and complex types that typescript provides.
It's great when you can just pick a simpler tool, and it turns out to be an adequate tool. When you don't need the benefits which React provides for building very complex interfaces, there's no reason to put up with its complexity.

There are kinds of applications though where React is indispensable, and HTMX would become unmanageable spaghetti. Stuff like Facebook (the original authors of React), GMail, Jira, etc. Such complex applications (not "websites") are relatively rare. If yours is not of this class, do explore simpler solutions unless you enjoy React and would write it for fun (and even then).
I can't wait until I leave this God-forsaken country lol
subset:

1. rule of zero
2. smart pointers
3. containers
4. simple class
etc.

Basically, something between c and c++, e.g. c+, that's more powerful and safer than C, but much less complex than the whole c++
Fun game! Good job Armaan!
Do they still lock out ECC support on Core processors? I'm still running an ancient i3 for ECC support in my home server.
That’s interesting that the gendering is reversed in Africa. Why do you think that is? The linked article didn’t try to explain it.

The OP article covered Mexico which remains closer to the US in outcomes being heavily male-gendered.

Why do you have to show the likeness ? There’s a strict level of fidelity being imposed here.

The brain has to only represent the sensations it encodes.

The tree and the brain are both material, so the phenomenon of the brain encoding it will also be material.

There’s no need for a soul to represent a further reality.

Even if a soul exists, wouldn’t that result in the same issue again?

The argument sounds like we are saying that there has to be a tiny tree in our heads for reality to be perceived. Since there is no tiny tree, we have to perceive it in our immaterial soul. Which just bumps the issue to the immaterial.

But then how is the immaterial perceiving the material ?
> I have never thought about what should happen if you try to select a sequence of text that mixes rtl and ltr languages.

I would expect it to go all the same direction across the text, regardless of which are rtl and ltr characters. If swiping left to right, ltrs would be selected forward, and rtls would be selected backwards (the same as if you just swiped ltrs from right to left).
Or are hosting non-public services and want TLS certs that all my devices trust automatically, like me.
Qualcomm built a card designed to do inferencing with 128GB of RAM:

I have no idea how much it costs. They do not sell it via PC parts channels.

Fair, beta isn't for everyone.
It's geared towards frequent fliers and people who want to save time.
But lets break down the points:

-> cheapest?? Frequent fliers are primarily concerned with time efficiency.

-> shortest/fewest-stopovers/shortest-stops?? These are all synonyms for efficiency.

-> airline preference?? Beta curates based on airline loyalty.

-> lounge preference?? Not handled when booking flights..

-> seat preference?? Furthest forward aisle/window, avoid no-recline, some want extra legroom (beta has an algo that handles this).

-> time of day?? Easy, just add it to your request (works in sim too).
No jira?
But can it AI?

In my experience, and in a simplified form, the tech orgs under SVPs are pretty independent of each other. One senior leader’s org operates and develops almost entirely independently of anyone else’s, more so if their product type (software vs cloud vs product) are culturally different.

I think the point is Go doesn't have C deps by default like Rust does.
gTLDs don't really solve the problem of running out of domain names any more than doing it yourself like myname-shop.com There are too many gTLDs for anyone to remember so they're really just an arbitrary extension on the 2nd/3rd level name.
While it is not a GPU, Qualcomm already made an inferencing card with 128GB RAM:

https://www.qualcomm.com/news/onq/2023/11/introducing-qualco...

It would be interesting if those saying that a regular GPU with 128GB of VRAM cannot be made would explain how Qualcomm was able to make this card. It is not a big stretch to imagine a GPU with the same memory configuration. Note that Qualcomm did not use HBM for this.
What's with the influx of Atari ST postings lately? I'm surely enjoying it!

Can EstyJS run in monochrome (640 x 400) mode? There were some great games in b&w, like Bolo and Oxyd [0] by Meinolf Amekudzi.

I remember studying the 'Hitchhikers Guide to the BIOS' [1], which was the only piece of documentation I initially had for the ST when it had just come out. If I'm not mistaken, it did ship with a C compiler and assembler.

A great start! Congratulate them on keeping the scope small. That's important when starting out. Leaves room to build on later as they're learning.

Recommendations:
- It's hard to tell when health is altered. Perhaps add a temporary color change to the health bar to inform players of the change. Or start to build in animated health that reduces the red fill with the number.
- Some abilities require charge, but I couldn't find where that was tracked. Another counter could be added to show this number and any increase.
- Add score for the battle. It could track correct answers, or hits, or anything that might be fun. Later versions could include a score/tracker for total monsters fought.

Intel does make cards aimed at this space too:

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/pro...

Coincidentally, it has 128GB of RAM. However, it is not a GPU, is designed to do training too and uses expensive HBM.

Modern GPUs can do more than inference/training and the original poster asked about a GPU with 128GB of RAM, not a card that can only do inferencing as you described. Interestingly, Qualcomm made its own card targeted at only inferencing with 128GB of RAM without using HBM:

https://www.qualcomm.com/news/onq/2023/11/introducing-qualco...

They do not sell it through PC parts channels so I do not know the price, but it is exactly what you described and it has been built. Presumably, a GPU with the same memory configuration would be of interest to the original poster.
Thanks! This kind of thing was lacking for some time, and with the HEEx engine + function components released a couple years ago, we laid the groundwork for extensible component libs, and the community has put out some great options.

We list half a dozen in the readme, with https://fluxonui.com/ being the most recent, and fully accessible. There is also one inspired by shadcn

Except all those times people got cloned or worse.
Or you move over to Go or Rust. Just like Perl programmers moved over to PHP, Python, and Ruby.

It seems crazy that in a community like this, people seem to ignore the fact that people move on to the shiny new tech. And those aren't even that new anymore. It feels like same as how Perl programmers acted in 15 years ago when PHP and Python were eating up all the new projects.
Very good article. While I normally am terrified of rabies, this helps me reduced that fear, and not worry because a bat flew by overhead.

I know in the US we only get 2-3 cases per year, and the OP case is the first in 3 years I think? All of our cases are known to be direct contact with bats/animals and the people should've known to get help.

> It also has no place to put power (okay, you can put it in the PV panels to produce heat, but they won't like that during a hot summer day).

Actually solar can vary it's output fairly easily. The inverters are constantly monitoring the voltage from the panels, and rasing or lowering their impedance to extract the maximum energy from them. It is trivial for them to deliberately extract less power by varying that impedance, and that's exactly what happens with solar battery chargers. They have to match what the battery can accept. But from the grid's viewpoint though it would be a pointless additional complexity. The contribution from each household is so small they can achieve the same effect by shutting on and off an entire household, or more likely a suburb.

To put it another way they are saying they want to power off solar to ensure grid stability. But at the times you might want to power off solar there is excess capacity. Yes it's not stored, but it's just there, waiting to be turned on or not.

Keeping the grid locked to phase is much harder. The inertia of spinning iron does it automagically for a short while, without any complex control systems or fancy programming. They each pull the others into sync. But if the grid falls apart the magic is gone, and it the grid has to be brought up one generator at a time somehow manually syncing each one. That's hard enough when there are 100's of coal fired plants around the country, but can you imagine what it would be like if there are a millions of solar powered homes all trying to have their say in what the phase should be.

Maybe this has something to do with that, or maybe not. I'm not a power EE.

Interest factoid: most solar + battery setups will not power the house from the battery if they lose grid supply. The reason is the inverter refuses to switch while it doesn't have a grid to sync phase with. If was switched on and then the grid came up at a different phase a lot of smoke would result. You can get setups that will work while there is no grid, it's just that unless you specifically ask for it you may not get it.
Really good point about whether there are cases where the immune system catches it early or the virus can't survive for another reason.

what a ridiculous comparison. Of course a superhero movie is more entertaining than a film that is explicitly designed to avoid mass appeal.

The nuance is that movies today is not where the most creative talent is directed anymore. The shift started with prestige TV taking off in the 2000s, and episodic content on streaming services surpassing film as a mass-market artform in the 2010s, with the pandemic driving the nail in the coffin.

I loved the late 2000s / early 2010s superhero movies. Spiderman, The Dark Knight, Iron Man, etc. These were great films. Today, the MCU is just eating its own tail with the most bland, repetitive crap. It's all designed to incentivize the same die hard fans to keep forking over their hard-earned cash with all the cross-film teasers and the need to watch every film to understand all the references and moving parts. I understand the business model—it's actually the same as comic books now—because people don't casually go in to see random movies anymore, they do that at home on Netflix, so they have to target the repeat viewers. It's visually impressive, and the acting is good enough to keep a relatively large subset of the population coming back, but for someone like me who wants at least a little bit of novelty or creativity in the plot or characters, it's just so become so mind-bogglingly boring.

I thought that too, but we only have a limited supply of it, its not without its own risks, and we get 2-3 cases per year of it - mostly due to vaccinating those exposed, and the 2-3 that happen, such as this case, should've known but didn't.

This combined with the 13th amendment making slavery legal for prisoners enables the US to grow or shrink its pool of available slave workers using primarily political forces.

Instagram does not offer "highlight some text, and click the Bold button, or maybe Ctrl+B". The normal way to put bold text on Instagram is to use an online "bold text generator" and copy-paste from there. I struggle to imagine that it's that way because people like doing that.
