Readit Newsdpoljak commented on Designing my own watch (2020) willem.com/blog/2020-11-3... · Posted by u/handfuloflight
I've been looking for a decent watch of my own, albeit it much cheaper.
My requirements are simple: eink/epaper display, a splash of color (red would be fine), circular display, light/visible at night, programmable watch face.
Closest thing I've seen is watchy, wearPico, bangle.js, but they all seem slightly wrong somehow.
Can't guarantee for the splash of color but I've had my eye on Fossil Hybrid smartwatch gen 6 for everything else you mentioned. It's maybe worth a look?
I can understand AMD not actively working on this solution since it gains them little while costing a hefty amount of developer time. Especially considering the fact that nVidia will be able to arbitrarily break this implementation with every update. What I don't understand is why they would take it down completely, is there some safety concern or are we in the 11 competing standards xkcd again?

The reasons for closing haven't really been elaborated on, just commented on as sad and devastating; I haven't managed to glean anything more from the rest of the article.
However, it's incredible to me to keep an organization like this going for 17 years. The landscape is constantly shifting and looking back at the world and technology from 2007, and even 2014, they've survived a lot. Going down now just shows how bad the market is in reality.
dpoljak commented on Mako – fast, production-grade web bundler based on Rust makojs.dev/blog/mako-open... · Posted by u/afc163
Every bundler these days boasts "Rust" and "fast". What people really want is webpack feature parity. For a large enough organization with complex use cases and resource management, I yet need to see a real webpack equivalent.
(Meanwhile, swc parser can't yet pass all tests in test262 according to their website: https://docs.rs/swc_ecma_parser/latest/swc_ecma_parser/ )
Isn't rspack[0] trying to handle full feature parity? I've just come across it earlier today so I'm not an expert but I'm looking forward to the full 1.0 release

This after not fixing the save corrupting bug in Sunbreak expansion basically since it launched doesn't look good... I love the series to bits, but I'll think twice about getting the sequel
dpoljak commented on Show HN: NowDo – MacOS todo app for procrastinators nowdo.org/... · Posted by u/sanity
Thanks! Will try out. Few feature ideas that I would personally like to have:
1. Time tracker, so we know how much time was spent on a particular task. And, a daily review section where we can see what was worked on the day and the time taken.
2. Ability to add tasks based on projects. Possibly, the ability to color code projects.
3. A tab/screen to manage projects, where we can add tasks and set the priority as 1, 2, 3, etc. 1 would show up on the NowDo screen.
Not op but seems like an overkill for this app.
Maybe you'd be better served by something like Toggl? You can create projects and really finely track time in it. Also the web ui gives you option to export a nice report on any given period for your tracked time.

sadness. where's the forum?
Its amazing to me that it has become such a default, similarly to Slack before it. At least some Slack communities tried and worked on getting the channels indexed so that it shows up during web searches, now with discord I need an account just to view the content...
A hard pass from me, especially when an answer to a simple question requires me to drink from their firehose of a search...
To be clear, this is pure curiosity on my part as I love Clojure(Script) and am consistently missing it during my day job.
