royaltjameson Ask HN: What are you working on? (March 2025)

Just shipped my first film for a client's auction gala that was received with high praise! Now itching for more video production. We overproduced it with 4k drone footage, multiple multicam interviews, and I got some incredible b-roll.

So fun!

royaltjameson Why can't we remember our lives as babies or toddlers?

My brain/memory turned on full lucid at age 2ish. I remember dreams in vivid detail, can draw you pictures of houses ive been in, all sorts of conversations my parents had.

I'm writing a memoir right now, since I dont know what else to do to shed this since it's pretty horrible stuff I remember.

royaltjameson Ask HN: Former gifted children with hard lives, how did you turn out?

ACE 8. I didn't know this was a thing and took a test which accurately described my entire childhood with every question.

I don't know where to go from here? I want the daily pain to stop.

I live up the hill from this one and spent >$70 on a few items last Friday for my gf. Insane price for satiation and eventual butt mud.

royaltjameson Ask HN: 19yr old child suffering from internet gaming disorder? Any suggestions?

Same here, and in some ways still am. Mine was abuse-filled with a lot of neglect.

Soul crushing! Reading his writing these past years has been a treat. I'm rooting for you all.

royaltjameson Show HN: I made a Note-Taking app for people who keep texting themselves

This is awesome! I truly want to continue texting myself, and push the texts to searchable note apps since iMessage query experience is 1/10 imo.

I found phonetonote [1] and they provide a textable 310 number which pushes to kinopio (which is how I found it), roam, logseq, zapier, etc. I think they have a telegram bot and chrome extension but I haven't tried them yet.

Curious how you best learned how to communicate complex ideas with empathetic language?

royaltjameson Losing my son

How utterly soulcrushing. Reading this I realized at once that both I want to be loving unconditionally to my kids like you and also my parents would never do this for me.

You and your family sound like beautiful people, and I hope you can be kind to yourself no matter what happens.

When timing is more appropriate, I'm curious to hear more in-depth about how to cling relentlessly to joy.

royaltjameson Ask HN: Why did Visual Basic die?

I learned VB when I was 8 and built a few games with it. I wish I kept coding :'(

royaltjameson Show HN: I created a game to memorize the fretboard

This is awesome. As a complete noob, it would be nice to hear the correct note once I swat the fly. There isn't a lot of positive reinforcement with this and it's really hard

royaltjameson People who die by suicide want to stop suffering, not to stop living

I am just pulling out of this. In the moment of crisis, it's a blend of all things. When I am financially, physically, nutritionally, hygienically needs met the symptoms of dysfunction are in remission.

But I am struggling to find work so it's a vicious cycle.

Life is brutal: I'm rooting for anyone who knows the struggle.
