if you multi-click the timeline, the current time will change to NaN:NaN. And why can't you change the current playing position?


it didn't work exactly as intended: "As a result of the attack Mr Trkulja said that entering his name into Google Images brought up images of other people beneath which his name appeared. He said some of these figures were allegedly murderers and one a drug trafficker."


what about noise? Audio noise. If it works, this is the next feature I'm interested in. For example, I have an HP laptop, and the charger is noisy.


if you have some cheap speakers, set hardware volume somewhere over 50% and then never touch it. Use the software volume. That's because the hardware volume button will almost certainly break (mine were Logitech).


I always wondered why would you send a probe around a planet... It seemed dumb. But it seems that the probe would steal some energy from the planet's speed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_assist


about NDA: I've worked with a friend on an idea. It was my idea. Because of the way he worked I decided I don't want to continue on that project. He continued anyway. The funny thing is that even though I told him all the details of my idea and I helped him even after I stopped working, he didn't build my idea. The result was similar with what was done before and so was not enough to differentiate in the market. Essentially he did all the easy stuff without understanding why it was so important to do the hard/new stuff.


5. You make room for living. Your work provides you the ability to live fully and enjoy life. Though you feel captivated and enthralled by your work, you make room for healthy routines like fitness, connection, spontaniety, and play. These activities re-energize and enable you to live a holistically fulfilling life.


from my own experience, yes it does. The way it worked for me was that I was ready to take more risky or uncomfortable decisions.

But from reading your post I sense that you don't really want to do this (who wants to be desperate? nobody): "The experiment starts once I do a Show HN."

For me, building something that you can show should be included in the experiment. So you should start right now!


people complain about artificial inflation, when states print money for no reason, while this article talks about inflation generated by real economic facts (like a bad year in agriculture).

So yes, if you ignore half of reality, you are right!

and what is this? "If the state endows the money with value". Money have a certain value because everybody using them agrees on that value. Dictatorships tried and failed to "endow the money with value". What happened in my country was that some alternative, valuable papers were created. Like a card for bread ratio. That piece of paper had value even if nobody was calling it "money". Or other papers that gave you some rights like buying a car, getting an apartment, vacation tickets etc.


I just want to point out that yes, there is a big difference between airtime and actual money. When I buy credit for my pre-paid card, if I want 5 euros credit, I will pay 5 euros + VAT. But because people pay in our local currency, most of them don't notice. So 5 euros credit it's a product and you have to pay VAT. 5 euros deposited in a bank are actual money and you don't have to pay VAT. Of course, this only happens because of legislation.
