kalev··on GitHub was down again
Be glad you're not on Bitbucket though. Issues happen so often people stopped posting it to HN.
kalev··on Vercel, formerly Zeit, raises $21M Series A
Might the name change come from one of lead investors named 'Accel', who wanted to align the name of zeit more with their own brand? Vercel/Accel? I honestly don't understand why you would do that though, as you just threw one of the most well known brand names in JS ecosystem out of the window.
kalev··on The Docker Compose Specification
This is exactly why we still use compose as well. Everybody is talking about kubernetes, but I honestly don’t see the point in adding a huge dependency only for balancing and restarting failed containers..

I just wish there was some SaaS platform which allows you to upload a docker-compose file and run the containers for you. That way, you don’t have to touch the underlying OS.

kalev··on Complete list of games playable through Nvidia's GeForce NOW
Nvidia released GeForce NOW to the general public today which allows users of low-end devices to play games on Nvidia's servers in high quality. Their site lacks a complete list of games, so this list might be handy for some.
kalev··on How tracking pixels work
That paragraph alone just made me decide to switch to Firefox. In only 30 minutes, it blocked 120 (!) tracking cookies.
kalev··on JetBrains: $270M revenue, 405K paying users, $0 raised
It’s interesting to see quite a few others in here had the same struggle with upgrading to tower 3 as I had a year (or 2?) ago. Then I moved to vscode with it’s git integration and that works just as good.
kalev··on Ionic React
I believe Capacitor is the absolute life-saver of hybrid development. I've been using Cordova for quite a while and switched to Capacitor last year, and it made my life so much easier. Where Cordova tries to do anything and everything, for all platforms, with its super flaky plugins and buggy config.xml, Capacitor is really focused on doing one thing well: being the shell between your code and native hardware. One of the major points is the code it generates for iOS and Android can be committed to GIT and is yours; you have full control over the native part of your app and could extend it in any way shape or form.

I have an app running in production now for almost a year and am so so glad I've chosen Ionic 4 and Capacitor. Kudos to the team.

kalev··on Mysterious Avid Issue Knocks Out Mac Pro Workstations Across Hollywood
The use of 'trashcan' to refer to the MacPro by multiple users in the link is pretty amusing.

> Has anyone had their trashcans go down today out of nowhere?

kalev··on Vital Wikipedia Articles
Totally agree. I just read Earth [1] for the first time and it was really fascinating. Don't forget to click on 'Level 1' in the top bar as well, to see the top 10 most important articles.

kalev··on W3schools.dev Redirects to Mozilla Developer Network

kalev··on Ask HN: Best things in your bash_profile/aliases?
What would the Google Chrome equivalent look like?
kalev··on Ask HN: Is it normal to fall out of love with coding?
This question and your answer are so relatable. I now realize I was close to burning out, without me knowing it at the time.

I've changed jobs recently and this made me so much happier; still programming full-time but working in a new domain, new language, new but positive people renewed my joy in building stuff.

kalev··on The Second Edition of “Refactoring”
Did not know there was a online library of refactorings. Here’s the link https://refactoring.com/catalog/ if anyone’s interested.

kalev··on Mozilla Global Sprint 2018
Wow, that’s actually a pretty cool initiative. An extra push to start giving back to the community. I’ll find myself a project and start contributing!
kalev··on Software Testing Anti-patterns
These are exactly the posts I need to level-up my game. More abstract, top level views without going into detail on setting up system-x to make it work, i can figure that out myself! Any more of these types of articles you guys and girls recommend?
kalev··on Show HN: A site that lets you search and subscribe to “Who is hiring?”
Solid looking application! Pretty clever to auto-filter the jobs when filling out the 'subscribe'-bar, as i thought it was the 'search'-bar ;)
