This is super cool, I would love to implement something like this. Are you willing to post the node red yaml for it?

What functionality do you get out of the media center? Is it just for local media, or do you use integrations for other services?

There are many cases where mixed solid materials are stronger than the sum of their parts. Heat tolerance is all about high bond strength between the materials, and strategic mixing of materials can enhance that property or others

No problem, it’s great seeing guitar stuff pop up on HN, especially one that I can try

If you are looking for a plugin with good cleans as well as dirty I would say the Nolly plugin is better when compared to the Fortin Nameless, but it was a while ago that I used the trial, however I don’t remember being as in love with it as the Nolly. I had a hard time choosing between it and the Abasi plugin but I felt like Nolly shined more in a wide range of scenarios. Overall I have been very happy with it, 10/10 would recommend especially since they recently added a build in tuner. I have had some issues but I think it’s just my $30 usb interface.

Just tried it out, I don't know if I would say it sounds like a $600 tube amp especially in high gain scenarios (it really didn't like my active pickups), for a free plugin it is definitely great. In comparison to the Archetype Nolly plugin from Neural DSP it doesn't really compare, but but for something thats free and can be trained at home on custom audio samples its pretty cool.

New comment by aeleos in "Ask HN: Resources to encourage teen on becoming computer engineer?"

aeleos — Sat, 19 Sep 2020 15:57:06 +0000

I am about to graduate with my degree in computer engineering so I have a few good resources for you. I was in a similar position, and what really helped me was doing personal projects. Some that I can recommend are:

Ben Eaters videos on creating an 8 bit computer on a breadboard will teach digital logic, computer engineering fundamentals etc.

Building your own operating system, the osdev subreddit and wiki have many great resources to go from someone who knows c to understanding how that relates to the hardware.

Anything robotics related, working with Arduino and other microcontrollers is another big one, as that is part of any electrical and computer engineering degree.

If you need any other resources or have questions feel free to reach out, I am happy to give advice.

Hey, would you be interested in a rising senior applying for a full time job for may? or is that too long term? I am a computer engineering major with a cs minor and a lot of software engineering experience

So, I have probably generated around 20 different texts from your prompt, and as much as I would love to be a believer I am unconvinced. The first person almost musings that you posted are nothing like what I have seen. While GPT is impressive, I don’t see it generating anything like what you posted.

I am definitely on the dragon model, my first few attempts went badly until I managed to correctly get it set. What setting are you using for the randomness by the way?

Just ran the prompt through for myself, and got this https://pastebin.com/2gLVSA5r Interesting, but nothing like the OP. Still not convinced that that one is real unfortunetly, too much taste and creative writing. While GPT-3 has excellent coherency, its sentence structure is always short and simple. Nothing like the original one.

I am currently trying to run it, how do you get it to generate paragraphs? do you just keep clicking story? Also are you using the custom setting?

As much as I would love for this to be real, this feels a bit too “sci-fi” and romance to be real. If it is, I would be happy a shocked, but this feels like it was written by someone trying to pretend to be a computer writing about itself, and discovering of itself. It’s a little too fan fic like to be believable.

It looks like this is not the fastest commercial flight but the fastest subsonic flight. The Blackbird and Concord records you are talking about are a different category.

Everyday astronaut has some of the best space content on YouTube, which is even more impressive given that he has doesn't have any kind of formal training in it. If you are into space and especially spacex I would highly recommend his channel.

This video has been in the works for many months and knowing his work it is probably one of the most comprehensive works on aerospike engines outside of academia.

Ask HN: What do you self-host?

aeleos — Sat, 12 Oct 2019 20:24:11 +0000

I know this is has been posted before but that was a few years ago so I wanted to restart the discussion, as I love hearing about what people host at home.

I am currently running an Unraid server with some docker containers, here are a few of them: Plex, Radarr, Sonarr, Ombi, NZBGet, Bitwarden, Storj, Hyrda, Nextcloud, NginxProxyManager, Unifi, Pihole, OpenVPN, InfluxDB, Grafana.

Given the way that apps like Snapchat do an overlay of the camera image, in theory you could build an entire app over the camera. However it probably isn’t the best idea

> "We designed this part to compete with Ice Lake, expecting to make some headway on single threaded performance. We did not expect to be facing re-warmed Skylake instead. This is going to be one of the highlights of our careers"

Looks like AMD expected Intel would actually start to fight back a few years ago when AMD started the Zen and Rome cores, and AMD has been running full steam ahead since then. Meanwhile, in reality, Intel dropped the ball and was too slow to react, and now AMD has basically leapfrogged them. What a time to be alive.
