werzum··on German parliament votes as a Git contribution graph
Perfect, thanks for pointing that out - I was just starting to think it inverted votes, since all major parties except AFD were in favor, which contradicted what the text implied to me at first glance.
werzum··on Ask HN: Those making $500/month on side projects in 2024 – Show and tell
Thank you for sharing, that is a neat side project and was actually just looking for something like this. Can you share how your summarisation process works and if you use any specific tools or approaches to generate them?
werzum··on Glass Antenna Turns windows into 5G Base Stations
how about reversing it and paying users for a mixture of uptime and quality of service?
werzum··on Microsoft confirms that Windows 11 Recall AI is not optional
I am using it for two years as daily driver on two (Lenovo) laptops, and I'm loving it so far! Most things worked out of the box and the UI is a nice balance of being adaptable if you want it, but also having sensible defaults. I keep having to bother with Windows for the sake of using a "real" Excel installation for some of my work, but Im really in love with the simplicity of just using Popos, whereas there are a thousand little spyware-annoyances whenever I boot up Windows again.
werzum··on The "10k-hour rule" was debunked again
I think this can actually be a very good idea - this is a thing often discussed in rock climbing, where for most people, no matter how hard and long you train, there will simply always be someone (most likely a 13yr old child) that is just incomprehensibly better than you. So I am glad that I find profound joy in my climbing and trying the hardest I can, while still knowing that globally I will probably always be mediocre at best.
werzum··on Things you're allowed to do (2020)
do you have any good resources on that? Since I am interested in those topics I read a book on interieur design a few years ago, but it really wasnt that good, and I am still looking for more practical guides.
werzum··on Learn time series with a story illustrated by Stable Diffusion
I love this type of education - do you know where I can find more content like that? I really have trouble finding stuff like this just by Googling; rather, I seem to stumble over it from time to time.
werzum··on Show HN: Hewell, a travel app powered by WikiData
Hey, I like the premise of the app, but I face one major problem when using it (on an IPad 2019): once I have selected a place from the map view (so that I can review it, get the route etc.), it is not possible to go back to the map view. Am I missing something, or is this a bug?
werzum··on Unsong, a fantasy novel where the universe is programmable with Hebrew (2015)
Hey, I am a big fan of HPMOR too, and can absolutely feel your pain of not being able to discuss the book with anyone. Do you have more books that went in a similar direction?

I started reading the Eternal Golden Braid after, which was really good but dense, and for some light fantasy The Name of the Wind was an overall impressive book.

werzum··on Show HN: Lofi.cafe
I love this site! Is there any way to get the track that is currently playing? I have several songs I wanted to ID
