Great article, yeah it is quite sad with these things. Louis Rossman talked extensively on these issues.

By the way, your images go to a weird url for me, maybe it is because it is Brave browser.

For example

Yep, I'm on it. Thanks!!

wow, this year will be interesting

Dont feel bad, the discussion shows most of HN doesnt have what it takes :) meanwhile others are trying to move around the map without killing anything. Haha

I cant figure out how to take the right turn without killing at least one shotgun guy.

Very cool, a bit like (total) recall for Windows, except I see you keep the data local ;)

Yep, very similar. A host of tools similar have come (and gone) in the past year alone from what I've seen. Most of them seems to focus on the AI aspect though.

Fun fact, while the app is only a bit over a year old, I was doing something similar with a simple cron job nearly a decade ago: https://jontelang.com/blog/2015/08/15/automating-screenshots...

I love simple solutions. I am doing something similar-but not so similar. I got tired of Loom and needed something simpler, and I made VideoBackr.com that can record your screen for share directly in the browser. I just made a cronjob to encode/compress the videos once a minute, works like a charm though there's a little delay :)

oh, thank you!

I have no idea what you just wrote. Pop a link mate :D

I wanted to read more of the Austrian economics as well. So many things they got right, and so many issues we have in current society because of this.

I know unsolicited advice are not great, but maybe instead of giving github all that free content, you could just pop it on your own domain and then have a lot more control over what's happening.

Love the design! I had a similar idea of this but also not only with travels but with restaurant recommendations.

Real recommendations from your friends.

Sorry, I never got a notification of your response but, Bingo! It's the same idea! We actually do restaurants as well! I'm using OSM at the moment, so you can technically rate and review any feature that exists on OSM.

very cool, I was thinking of making plugins for various platforms as well. How hard is it and do you see good traction?

I am not really using VisualStudio here - just vim :D

this is so cool, how come you ended up making this? You had to do this process yourself?

Yep. I'm an immigrant myself, and I had an expired residence permit for most of 2024 due to immigration office wait times.
