micael_dias··on Netflix raises prices for every subscription tier by up to 12.5 percent
It’s 2 clicks with tools like Stremio. I use Plex with the arr stack and sure it has more configuration needed upfront but once that’s done you no longer need to figure out which streaming service has what. Plus things like realdebrid mean you don’t even need storage anymore.

Yes, JSX was created for React. It was at the time a controversial syntax that most disliked. There’s a great Honeypot documentary on React that goes over it.

I still think the funniest thing about this saga is that Trevor claimed the trucks ran on HTML5 supercomputers

I've built https://opusone.ai/resume-builder over the past two months while still working my full time job. Now the hard part, marketing.

Oh that's a great idea. I already found a php parser for it. Thanks for the suggestion.
micael_dias··on Show HN: Resume builder – beautiful, highly customizable templates
Thank you!

I know, I wanted to add a LinkedIn integration but they don't allow it unless you're a partner.

So, I tried to mitigate the "data-entry hate" by showing the resume being updated in real time.

I've used react-pdf[1] to generate the resumes and react-pdf[2] to display them

micael_dias··on Console for Mobile Browsers
This is pretty neat but what's the use case? I'm struggling to see it

micael_dias··on As YouTube traffic soars, YouTubers say pay is plummeting
They do promote YouTube premium videos in the beginning but after a while you stop seeing it if you don't consume it. I think it took a week max for premium videos to leave my recommended content (it was a while ago I started my subscription) .
micael_dias··on Ask HN: Resources to learn basic UI layout design for React apps?
Material ui uses flexbox for it's grid. You can learn all about flexbox here[1]. In material-ui a <Grid /> can either be a container or an item. Check the documentation for the Grid element which has all the props available which should translate pretty well to the css in the webpage above i.e. flex-direction will be the "direction" prop in the Grid element if I'm not mistaken (on mobile, don't have access to the documentation rn)

It's probably MIT if his PHP project is anything to go by. Open an issue on github letting him know he forgot to include it I guess?
micael_dias··on Nvidia calling gaming PC owners to put their systems to work fighting Covid-19
From the reddit thread:

"For people worried about electricity usage:

My 3900x/2070s system, if using both cpu+gpu for folding full, uses 430w at the wall plug. Even at 21cents per kw/h this is about 9 cents/h.

When setting up your machine, it's best to go to slots and remove your cpu. GPU tends to make all the points, especially if you have a newer GPU. I removed my 12 core 3900x from slots and barely noticed a drop in points while my system was running much cooler and with even less power usage. Leave it to default disease and you'll likely get covid-19 projects.

I use both my 2070s cards and I get estimated 3.2M ppd for $2/24hrs of electricity.

TLDR: PC's don't use much power. Get folding@home and just use your GPU(s) at full. Leave it to default to get covid-19 projects."
