cellover··on Calendso: An open source Calendly alternative
Oh I see now, thank you for having spotted this!
cellover··on Calendso: An open source Calendly alternative
Looks promising, was considering using Calendly for a SaaS app I just launched to book demos but will give Calendso a try.

Was wondering if there was an integration with Salesforce via Zapier.

cellover··on Ask HN: Do you create music? let's hear it
It feels like watching Andromeda Strain with amazing Gil Mellé OST...

cellover··on Ask HN: Do you create music? let's hear it
Nice to see such a post, some great stuff here!

I produce techno and house with mostly hardware instruments and sequencer (love my Cirklon Sequentix...) and have been doing so for the past 2 decades.

cellover··on Why isn't HN infinite scroll?
I read once on the psychological effects of infinite scroll and that it made users somewhat anxious. I can not remember the source however.

This resonates with me. I don't like when I can not "feel the size" of a page. This might be ridiculous but I find it helps to materialize web pages when they do have a bottom.

cellover··on A small, delayed avalanche may have been responsible for the Dyatlov Incident
What the actual schnitzel National Geographic! 289 HTTP requests, 12.53 MB / 4.77 MB transferred, Finish: 2.47 min. The article has litteraly 2 pictures. This is insane. I just added the domain to my pi-hole.
cellover··on Ask HN: What are the minimum metrics to monitor when launching a SaaS product?
Maybe I should have been more precise, you are right. I was thinking of the key indicators that your project is financally viable, so maybe more related to finance / revenue.
cellover··on 2-Acre Vertical Farm Run by AI and Robots Out-Produces 720-Acre Flat Farm
Stop hacking my vertical scroll-farming! This inertia thing when scrolling is unbrearable.
cellover··on Pi-Hole 4.3.2
If the font is too thin for you:

* F12

* Console tab

* jQuery('body').css('font-weight', '500');

Stop. Hacking. My. Scroll. Behavior. Quite ironic for a company promoting "a new paradigm of User Experiences".
cellover··on YouTube videos that have almost zero previous views
I have regularly been doing these kind of searches for years and have always loved the spontaneity of the results I found.

We are far from the "SHOCKING: A WHALE EATS A BABY LIVE!!!" with the red circled preview image.

cellover··on New Dell XPS 13 developer edition now available
1 year and a half after I bought my Dell XPS13 9360 developer edition, issues started: trackpad seems to be unsticking the underlying surface, plus some strong hiss noise appeared.

This is so disappointing when you invest around 2'000 USD in a laptop.

Hopefully this edition fixes those issues for good!

cellover··on The cult of rotary mixers
This reminds me of the best Midi sequencer in the world that is being built by Sequentix: the Cirklon (1): a no compromise hardware sequencer hand built and built to last, with unique features. The waiting list is around 6 to 10 months!

cellover··on Ask HN: What open source project, in your opinion, has the highest code quality?
To me that would be Appleseed rendering engine.

https://github.com/appleseedhq/appleseed

Even though I can't code C++, I can read it here and understand most of it (besides the maths).

cellover··on Ask HN: What's the best documentation you've ever read?
PostgreSQL's documentation to me is a reference.

Complex concepts are told in a very simple and concise fashion. There is just the right amount of text for what is told, it does not make you feel dumb and instead invites you to dig deeper in a very welcoming manner.

cellover··on Don't just shorten your URL, make it suspicious and frightening (2010)
I think it's rather interesting because you can use it as a canary like service of some sort and plant some shady URLs that lead to unique resources you have logs for.
cellover··on The White Darkness: A Journey Across Antarctica
I can not recommend enough the documentary about Shackleton's survival story:

cellover··on Digital Minimalism for the Working Hacker
I did not know the existence of this distribution, thanks i'll look into it.
cellover··on Digital Minimalism for the Working Hacker
i3wm has been a huge productivity boost for me as a development machine at home for the following reasons:

  - no distractions
  - minimalism, most navigation on the keyboard
  - easy to setup a startup script that preloads your default screens / workspaces / apps setup
  - easy to map your workspaces in your mind
From machine boot to coding: 30 seconds.

cellover··on Neighbor's house alarm triggers when I put my car in reverse
Please, somebody, create a website that centralizes all these weird bugs! Could be a very good resource to "debug things", try and approach problems with different approaches.
cellover··on Please take care of my plant
I would love to see the same thing with "Please take care of my planEt"!
cellover··on How Eve Players Pulled Off the Biggest Betrayal in Its History
I do not agree. To me it sounds a little bit like saying 'life is not so much fun'. You can enjoy it if you decide to make it enjoyable. EVE online allows that kind of behavior which makes it a unique game in my opinion.

That's how I try to play the game and have had so many thrilling moments. I'm not even in a corp, I play solo but have so much fun with the game!

cellover··on How Eve Players Pulled Off the Biggest Betrayal in Its History
This article is more immersive listening to the latest EVE track posted on Soundcloud:

cellover··on Seven earth-sized planets discovered circling a star 39 light years from Earth
I am wondering how it could affect our psyche if we were able to gaze on a mirror world with our own eyes in broad daylight. This is the first VR application I would think of: display an Earth like planet in the sky and see how it affects us.
cellover··on The David W. Niven Collection of Early Jazz Legends, 1921-1991
Those commentaries are indeed excellent! His voice makes me think to HAL 9000 every time it starts which makes for a very singular journey!
cellover··on Google launches voice typing in Google Docs
Thanks for the edit. It is quite amusing to see the up and down votes going, my karma keeps moving but stays about the same. Maybe I should have been even more sarcastic!
cellover··on Google launches voice typing in Google Docs
I understand that my comment makes people uncomfortable as in "ha this is the typical anti-Google-paranoid guy". I respect that, and I used a specifically skeptic tone on purpose.

I love Google, they make great products, but at the same time I can't help being afraid of this marvelous monster.

cellover··on Google launches voice typing in Google Docs
I could not envision living like Vincent Freeman (Ethan Hawke) in Gattaca, making sure you live no trace of yourself anywhere.

I you are alive, you already leave traces everywhere. No need for a needle or cotton swab here.

Of course I am being paranoid, but we all should be :)

cellover··on Google launches voice typing in Google Docs
They have my emails, they have my documents, they have my pictures, they have my location, they have my browsing history, and now they can have my voice.

Only lacks DNA, fingerprints, retina footprint and non-verbal communication.

Oh wait, it's only a matter of time.

cellover··on Stripe Atlas
I can totally relate to your experience, and this is exactly why I started building a startup one year ago with 2 partners with this exact same goal:

Help companies get online ASAP, company incorporation, facilitate business bank accounts opening, negotiate excellent deals when it comes to online transaction fees and so on. We can also help integrate virtually any payment service provider in your IT system.

We'd love to hear from the issues you encountered and would happily provide you with advice, or more in-depth accompaniment.

Just drop me an email at t+stripe-atlas-HN [at] mekloud.com and we'll get back to you!
