Is it possible to get one screenshot from different periods of the same video like 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% with just one command.

If yes, could you please share for me here, it'd be really helpful, thanks

edotrajan··on Launch HN: Activepieces (YC S22) – Open-Source Zapier Alternative
I believe trigger is more focused on devs while this is more focused on others
edotrajan··on Launch HN: Activepieces (YC S22) – Open-Source Zapier Alternative
Excited about this open source alternative!

I think no code crons have huge opportunity to capture nocode makers who like framer or webflow.

I think this is also quite economical when compared with competitors like

zapier - free / 100 tasks / month n8n - 20 euros / 5000 workflows / month make - free / 1000 ops / month activepieces - free / 5000 tasks / month

I think it would be great if in your landing page you can describe how you differentiate or provide similar experience as your competitors

edotrajan··on Show HN: You.com, private search engine that summarizes the web – built for devs
I really love the extensions and the layout I'm a designer, learning to code and even if I'm not using it for search regarding dev stuff I really like the vision and thought process Big Kudos to the entire team working on this stuff.

I have no issues with installing extension, I have 100's already and I only a dozen of them frequently

It'd be great if you could integrate some functionality similar to spotlight like, keyboard shortcut to invoke the search that also searches past sites and info on them

Also, it'd be great if it could suggest websites and news based on my search history

potential features could be like pinning and grouping sites like toby

Also, love the domain

edotrajan··on Launch YC S21: Meet the Batch, Thread #5
I just started using Clarity after seeing the demo yesterday. I like the vision and how fast it is

This is easy to convert notes to tasks (helps if you have an existing systems of projects , tasks )

I know you can do this in notion by assigning tags to rows/ records and filter by tags.

Still I like how clarity does it for me instead of me doing it

edotrajan··on Ask HN: Why is there no “close tabs to the left”?
vivaldi browser has it.

I believe the idea was new tabs open / append on right. So, just satisfy major usecase.

Say you come to hacker news and open top five links in a new tab, after visiting all 5 websites, you wouldn't want to close the homepage and the previous 4 websites. You usually want to close just the 5 websites you opened and not the hacker news page. So, user just have to right click on hackernews tab and choose "close tabs to the right".

I also want 'close tabs to the left' it would be useful, when you open 20 links and read through 15 of the links, you don't want those websites you visited to hog you memory, here "close tabs to the left" would be helpful.

edotrajan··on Most U.S. Dairy Cows Are Descended From Just Two Bulls
Jallikattu protest on 2017 relating to bull breeding in Tamilnadu, India.

Selected Excerpt from Wikipedia Below

Jallikattu is cited as one of the last available ways to promote and preserve the native livestock because the other uses of native breeds such as ploughing, breeding via mating and milk is on decline due to advancement in mechanization by tractors, improvement in artificial insemination and hybrid Jersey cows respectively. Karthikeyan Siva Senaapathy, a native breed activist, has said in an interview with the BBC that "[Tamil Nadu] had over one million Kangayam bulls in 1990. The population has fallen to 15,000 now." Minor protests were initiated by cattle rights activists and farmers such as Karthikeya Sivasenapathy who has appeared multiple times on the STAR Vijay talk show Neeya Naana. Music videos, such as "Takkaru Takkaru" by Hiphop Tamizha, and on Facebook videos to talk about jallikattu and its benefits inspired the protestors. Sivasenapathy has claimed that the indigenous cattle bulls are critically endangered in Tamil Nadu and banning jallikattu will have the adverse effect of wiping them out completely. According to Sivasenapthy and other pro-jallikattu activists, jallikattu is not just a sport that is deeply entrenched in Tamil culture, but it has also inadvertently served as a scientific method of breeding cattle.[clarification needed] This view is held among a majority of jallikattu supporters. The protest is aimed at revival of the native humped bull, called the zebu. The Tamil Nadu breed of zebu is unique to India and has several advantages compared to European varieties of cattle such as the Holstein cow. The native breeds are rich in the A2 variety of beta casein protein which aides easy digestion whereas milk from European Bos taurus contain the A1 variant of the beta casein protein which is related to allergies and some serious health conditions.The Holstein breeds found their way into India as a result of Operation Flood of late 1960's through cross breeding to increase the low milk yield of native breeds. As the Jersey cow can yield nine times the quantity of milk as a zebu in the same period, there is concern among protesters that without jallikattu providing an economic incentive for the breeding of zebu, the breed will become endangered and eventually extinct.

edotrajan··on Tell HN: Help me get to 100K MRR and be rewarded for it
1. I've bought more than 100 domains and I'm planning on launching atleast one site every week. They should mostly be wordpress CMS sites but I also have few SAAS based ideas for them. So, I need a lot of design services. Though I'm a designer myself I hardly have to time to work on my own projects as I've lots of things going on.

2. I work as a Remote UI Designer for Healthcare based SAAS startups similar to TelaDoc for companies in US, UAE and India. Since, I work as a contract designer myself for entrepreneurs who bootstrap their startup, I could help in what kind of output your customers expect in what timeline, will they be okay if you take time more than deadline. I have successfully completed more than 3 projects from idea to implementation. Each project takes atleast 6 months to 18 months to complete. I have been the core members of companies in initial stages and Now, I'm on track to create websites of my own.

edotrajan··on One year of cycling to work
Cycling to Work in India, since this new year. No gears. Basic cycle + 3 locks + Air pump = $90USD. 15Kilometers.

Already saved $20USD/ month.

Never going back to Automobiles again. My friends are also trying to start biking to commute after I've made it. Many thought I'd go back to MotorBike after 1 week but I persevered and it's a joy riding the bike.

Highly recommend to people in Indian Metro, just add 10 minutes to average 7km commute. Happy riding !

edotrajan··on Should I become an intern after graduating a bit ago?
being an aspiring ux researcher myself, i understand your dilemma. IMO, I would take the offer. The pros outweigh the con you've mentioned and this would be an experience you can ponder upon and contrast with once you get a junior ux researcher role under an experienced senior researcher.
