Cool game - maybe pause if you're prompting the user to enter a name.

The manufacturer of Revital, a wound-healer made from chicken feet, is recalling its powder and gel products because of potentially dangerous contamination, the Food and Drug Administration said Wednesday.

I find myself using '' as a builtin bookmark to go back to my previous spot when I use G, like gg=G'' to apply code formatting for the whole file then return to my spot.

One of my lazy recipes is

Sweet potato in rice cooker pot

Filet of Tuna/Salmon/Chicken breast in steam basket

Also some veg like cauliflower/brocolli Kale/Spinach in steam basket

Add 1 cup water, press quick cook/steam.

Season stuff after.

Easy cleanup - nonstick pot.

You only need to remove as many dishes from the dishwasher as you intend to put in.

I always find it odd to see infrastructure equipment with power cables that can easily be knocked out. I understand the need for flexibility but it would be nice if it was secured somehow.

Ask HN: Video server for WebEx/Zoom recordings with optional PPT sync

schemathings — Fri, 08 Mar 2024 13:21:50 +0000

Our company has quite a few teams who have done in-depth training recordings and demos over the years to educate peers but it feels like a lot of these efforts just end up as mp4 files in file share folders or CMS where content goes to die because its not easily discoverable.

In an era of tools like Plesk and Jellyfin are there any similar tools out there to self host a server and create a nice library of videos with some decent tagging/metadata, previews etc? Optionally something that might timesync related PPT and respect the .vtt files that WebEx produces for subtitles?

Looking for any reasonable leads, including maybe a django or node project that has done some large percentage of this that could be made usable with some polish.

To clarify this would be for internal use.
