My homelab upgrade from 8.x to 9.x was pretty smooth from following their upgrade guide[1]. I just upgraded from 9.0 to 9.1 this morning without any issues.

I also had issues with Podman on an M2 Mac. I'm currently using OrbStack as I had network performance issues with Colima (I have 10GbE between the Mac and a NAS). Outside that issue, Colima was awesome.

Would you mind elaborating?

I had the same issue but it turns out you can expand them to show the titles by clicking the "side bar" button that, for me, was left of my address bar. Odd default but this is in a nightly release and others have already provided feedback to them on this.

This will definitely be subjective and I highly recommend using the subreddit search to find topics you enjoy, BUT here are a few of mine:

As someone who had been listening, I've heard maybe one good faith justification (onboarding and mentoring of new hires) and a multitude of vague "synergy" excuses. Honestly asking and sincerely listening, are there others?

I've been looking for a good and ideally very simple place to host an Uptime Kuma container with persistent storage. Any suggestions?

I would love to use Ripcord but I can't find any information on noise suppression/voice focus and that's a requirement for me as I play without push to talk and on mouse and keyboard so all those key presses get sent through to those in my channel. With the 1st party app, despite other issues, none of my key presses come through for people in my channel.

Same here. Tried a few hours apart. If you're looking for the API docs, as I was, they are here: https://docs.pirateweather.net/en/latest/

open-meteo.com looks awesome. I've been messing around writing a snow forecast app for skiing/snowboarding for a while now and the main thing I'm missing is historical snowfall data. Do these data sources exist in a machine readable format and I've just not been able to find them? If so, would you ever consider adding precip + kind of precip to your historical API?

On my phone at the moment but I've used it for over a year so it's been at least worth $240 to me. I'll update this comment with more info (both pros and cons) when I'm on a computer.

I've been surprisingly pleased with Kagi, a paid search engine in private beta right now. I believe they also use bing results was well as their own indexes. I've found the search results to be on par with Google and no longer feel the "well maybe google would find something this missed" anxiety from trying previous search engines. That being said, I've not given DDG a fair try but I appreciate the paid service model of Kagi. I do miss the shopping results on Google but that's really the only search use case I go back for.

This looks cool. I know effectively nothing about Svelte so some of these questions may be coming from that ignorance....but can you talk more about the embedded V8 instance (what's it doing?) and also what gets sent across the wire? Is it the usual HTML and JS or is there any server-side rendering going on? How big is the binary for the HN demo? What's the story for static assets like video or images?

I've started using Go at work so definitely interested in using this for side-project web apps to keep me in the Go mindset.

New comment by ehaughee in "Show HN: Calenday, real-time collaborative calendars for trip planning"

ehaughee — Fri, 18 Mar 2022 16:52:03 +0000

A couple ideas come to mind solving slightly different problems

1. Flight discovery

It would be interesting to propose a date and (optional) arrival time and location and have the service look up like the top 5 cheapest flights or something and link to a purchasing site (affiliate link kickbacks might be a viable way to generate revenue here but I have effectively zero context/experience here).

The rest of the user story/flow (aka what happens when someone chooses to purchase a flight from the list) is interesting here but simpler is probably better (e.g. just have them follow the flow in point 2 below) unless there's some simple way for Calenday to know which flight you bought and surface that to collaborators.

2. Flight coordination

It would be nice if the trip "vanguard" or leader could put in their flight details and have that shown with some rich information from some flight tracker API. Might be able to simplify the flight details input portion with some kind of flight tracker API (e.g. Airline, flight number, date and then it would pull the departure/boarding times, terminals, gates, or whatever is available).

Going a bit more democractic, and maybe what you were talking about with showing availability, if people buy different flights from one another (e.g. coming from diverse origins, or differing availabilities or price sensitivities), having an easy way to see when each collaborator/co-traveler will land in the given destination would be very useful/cool.
