This is a crazy decision on a day when most of our cases came from the US.
math0ne··on Ask HN: What industries are underserved by software?
I know there are lots of players in the field but I know a few lawyers and the software the work with on a daily basis is terrible!
math0ne··on A podcast that hacks Ring camera owners live
The founder of Ring was on an episode of the Vergecast where he describes this exact system. I'm not sure how far they are with this but it was clear that his goal is a system like that.

I"m sure this was created for personal interest / development reasons but I thought I should mention that Home Assistant (https://www.home-assistant.io/) will do all of this out of the box.
math0ne··on Eternal Terminal
Awesome thanks! I'm still not sure I understand tmux control mode but I have always used mosh and tmux together so I guess I just never noticed.
math0ne··on Eternal Terminal
As a current mosh user i'm interested but I don't know what "support native scrolling nor tmux control mode" means. Any insight?

I would guess not unfortunately.
math0ne··on Synergy-core: Open source core of Synergy, the keyboard and mouse sharing tool
Used synergy for years but recently bought one of these guys which i didn't even know existed:

https://www.startech.com/ca/Server-Management/KVM-Switches/2...

The software is not as configurable but it is SO much more reliable and responsive. Basically a wired version of synergy.

Def true in Canada.
math0ne··on Gmail Icons are Hard
I think in most applications this is important but in my email, I value density above all else.
math0ne··on Docker is a dangerous gamble
I think of docker as a learning tool, it is a repository of systems others have created that you can learn from. I agree you can use any build system or write scripts by hand and get similar results but docker has created a standardized ecosystem you can quickly learn how to do just about anything from.

Where's the competition then? Uber's platform is miles ahead of everything else, Lyft included so if its just a map app with balance sheet where are the competitors?
math0ne··on “We are working on getting Sublime Text 3.0 final ready to launch”
Yeah but things like Magit and HELM and Hydra have existed for a much shorter period of time. The EMACS ecosystem has grown immensely in the last few years.

I used to use sublime a ton but I feel like in this day and age things like atom and emacs have left them behind with a much more mod-able UI.

math0ne··on Windows Subsystem for Linux is out of beta
FYI, this does not work.

Some cool idea's at play here but termux is so limiting I would have a hard time getting any real work done.
