jorisboris··on Show HN: Random Aerial Airport Views
It only has a select number of airports now. Which one is your home airport, I’ll add it?
jorisboris··on Show HN: Random Aerial Airport Views
Thanks for the feedback, didn't think about this.

I hope they consider it good marketing, given that their logo is watermarked in all pics.

I'll keep an eye on traffic in the meantime.

Thanks for the feedback, zooming is the only way currently. I could add the ICAO code somewhere in the UI.

Thanks for the feedback, no filters yet, but it's highly requested so working on that soon :D
jorisboris··on Ask HN: My submission didn't show up on HN Shownew, but also isn't dead
Thanks so much. I'll read the guidelines and relaunch!
jorisboris··on Ask HN: My submission didn't show up on HN Shownew, but also isn't dead
Thanks for your questions. Not really the intent of my post but happy to answer:

The database is publicly available on this Notion page: https://melted-snail-13b.notion.site/23a6c31d1c404515aafcdfb...

I just added airports I knew, or looked interesting. I fetched the pics from Jetphotos manually.

Then using the Google API to search for the ICAO code + airport, eg "EHAM airport". Up to now, Google always hit the target.

[Solution] Apparently it was dead, you just don't see [dead] as the author. Thanks Aaron695.
jorisboris··on Ask HN: My submission didn't show up on HN Shownew, but also isn't dead
Thanks, so if I understand correct the flow is:

1) visible on shownew for logged in members until threshold reached

2) visible on shownew for everyone until (other?) threshold reached

3) visible on Show Hn

But it should show up to Shownew? That's where it doesn't show up. Sorry if I didn't clarify that, will edit.
jorisboris··on Tell HN: Uber sold my email address
Off-topic

> I have my own domain name and I create custom email addresses for each account. For Uber, I predictably used "uber@<domain>"

What’s the purpose of this and doesn’t it get expensive (and burdensome) to create new custom email addresses?

jorisboris··on Ask HN: Does dieting impact your productivity?
I guess this was the kind of confirmation I was looking for. Accepting that if impacts , and keep a good attitude sounds like a good solution. Thanks!
jorisboris··on Ask HN: Does dieting impact your productivity?
So keto actually improved your stamina ?
jorisboris··on Ask HN: Does dieting impact your productivity?
I’m trying a combo of keto and paleo in a One Meal A Day intermittent fasting.

So mostly veggies, fruit, dairy, nuts, red meat, chicken, fish, eggs.

Avoiding carbs by not eating bread, pasta, rice … though not 100% (eg fruits)

jorisboris··on Ask HN: Does dieting impact your productivity?
And don’t you feel hungry ?
jorisboris··on Ask HN: Does dieting impact your productivity?
Yes, considering stretch yoga and shower in afternoon.

For cold showers, I live in Bangkok and water temperature is at minimum 25 degrees Celsius (77 Fahrenheit).

I wish I could take cold showers, I did an ice bath twice and it’s such a booster !

jorisboris··on Ask HN: Does dieting impact your productivity?
I understand what you mean, and I have been trying to overcome low energy by shifting my mindset eg walking, meditation, reading, smiling, thankfulness, affirmation… still want to try shower and yoga but these requires a little more logistics.

But in the end, I can’t really confirm that these actions have the same outcome as just eating a piece of chocolate cake to kickstart my tired brain.

I realize by writing this I’m again creating a belief for myself.

jorisboris··on Ask HN: Does dieting impact your productivity?
Doing a 20 minute workout every morning. That and meditation / visualisation to set my intentions for the day. I notice if I do these two my discipline for dieting is much stronger.

Would love to do more cardio (1-2 hours per day) but it just doesn't fit the schedule atm.

jorisboris··on Ask HN: Does dieting impact your productivity?
I've been experimenting with One Meal A Day, at 5pm. But that's exactly what causes me to crash somewhere between 11am - 3pm
jorisboris··on Ask HN: Does dieting impact your productivity?
Thanks for the feedback.

What protein would you recommend, I used to binge on cashew and almond but they also contain fat? Google tells me eggs, lentils, chicken, spinach, ... is low on calories while high on protein.

jorisboris··on Ask HN: I am starting a new job and I am worried I will screw it up. Advice?
If you keep thinking you will screw up, chances are you probably will.

So stop thinking how you will screw up, and start thinking how you will succeed. Imagine yourself being successful one year from now and then imagine all the things you did to become successful. Go into details, write it down. Re-read it every time you start believing again you will screw up.

It’s like driving a car, you have to watch where you want to go, not where you don’t want to go. Because in both situations you will end up exactly there.

I’ve been in this situation myself, and learned this the hard way. So I hope this helps you avoid making the same mistake.

jorisboris··on Ask HN: How to Sell in the Society of Tiredness?
Depends on the product. Products like Confluence and Slack come in through the backdoor because employees start adopting it (without management consent).
jorisboris··on Ask HN: Do you look angry while you work?
I did that as well. Video taping myself in meetings, and while working. Or just keeping a Zoom meeting open with only myself in it.

It's very confronting at times!

jorisboris··on Ask HN: Do you look angry while you work?
Multiple researchers have shown that body language feeds back on how you feel.

So maybe you don't want to "fix" yourself for others, but you might consider it for yourself.

jorisboris··on What are fast ways to earn 1k USD monthly with a side project?
Thanks!

I'm often browsing on Indiehackers, I was mostly looking for the unexpected, creative, fun stories op people finding a business somewhere they didn't expect!

jorisboris··on Ask HN: Do you like the #BuildInPublic culture?
I do it for

(1) accountability: what did I work on, what is next. The internet is my boss. (2) logging my perspective: I will never know my thoughts and feelings at that specific point in time when looking back from the future if I don’t write them down now

jorisboris··on Ask HN: How did you stop drinking?
Couple of things which worked for me: - Start with realistic goals an go incremental, eg not drinking for a week, a month, 2 months, ... and in between it's ok to drink. - Have something to replace it with, which is widely available. In my case that's soda water - Share it with everyone that your not drinking for x days, week, ... to make social pressure keep you accountable
jorisboris··on Ask HN: Why does HN change my URL to a bootstrap URL?
Thanks, will update!
jorisboris··on Ask HN: Which parental action increased your happiness and success as an adult?
Sara Blakely's father apparently asked his children at the diner table how they failed that day.

Not a personal story, but one that I'll remember for my own kids when they grow up.

https://www.businessinsider.com/spanx-founder-sara-blakely-r...

Edit, some other knowledge I read: Richard Branson's father used to repeat: Isn't life wonderful. His mother would put him in front of a mirror and show how it reflects badly on him when he would badmouth other people. (I don't have the exact source on these two, some podcast I listened)

jorisboris··on The WFH Folks
If your budget allows it, doing an in-person week every quarter is my preferred approach.

Before, when working in the office, we used to follow the SAFe framework, which promotes doing a 2-day planning workshop every 4 to 6 sprints.

I got to know more about my colleagues during those 2 days offsite than during the 4 in-office sprints preceding it.
