This took a maximum of 3 prompts and 7 minutes, and it does and looks exactly how I wanted it to look. Just a beautiful version of HN

Thanks

tried:

  simplex.goto("www.amazon.com")
  simplex.wait(2000)
  simplex.click('the search bar')
  simplex.type("bicycle")
  simplex.press_enter()
  simplex.wait(1000)
  image = simplex.extract_image("first 3 rows of results")

https://github.com/thasaleni/song-association I was making a game based on Elle Magazine's song association (YouTube Game) - In the YouTube game a guest gets a word and has 10 seconds to sing a song with the word in the lyrics (the requirement is that he must get to the part with the given word within 10 seconds) - My game in flutter displays a word, and lets the player sing into the mic while running a countdown and converting the audio to text (if it gets to the word in the lyrics within 10 seconds it stops) then it looks up the lyrics via GeniusAPI if it finds a match that is a point, if it doesn't that is a loss also if you don't get to the word within 10 seconds that is a loss

I intended to make this multiplayer but I got busy in the early stages and kind of abandoned it, intend to get back to it soon

South Africa: Payshap https://www.payshap.co.za/

almost nailed me to the T, so impressive

Cards are moving towards no card at all i.e. virtual cards. USA is very slow in adopting new payment technology compared to the rest of the world. I live in South Africa and tap to pay is so much of a thing that you do not have to worry if you leave your card at home as you can tap at like 80% of the merchants, and if you can't they will have a fall back like QR code etc, NFC enabled cards have been around for years and all the merchants are really quick in adopting them.

this is dope, and also something I have been working on on android (yes I am gonna be that guy, Android has supported this for a long time)... it's great for informal merchants, and maybe waiters that run around a bar collecting bills from customers... but actual POS devices aren't going anywhere, there is always gonna be a need for them, this function has been there and even has a name (softPos) many companies can give you this functionality TODAY on your android phone, so yes apple devices can now participate but it won't shake the market as everyone thinks.

The only difference between Google and any other private company is that Google publicizes it's "experiments" early, most companies have the same rate of experiments being closed or even higher, they just keep them private. It makes more sense when you look at Google as an R&D company, than a finished product company

Ey man, Africa is also in UTC+02 and we are not known to be as shady as that one UTC+02 country

Funny, I wrote an article about why people don't cite Wikipedia as a source for information in scholary papers when in fact Scholary papers can fall to the same trap of being "not reliable" the same way wikipedia is here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21989531 not so long ago

It could be argued that wikipedia has better reviews cause it has a much wider audience of reviewers

This is interesting, couldn't they just get away with translating the english articles?

that is the wrong implementation of a spinner

Additionally, since it's a place search, maybe add place autocomplete. So it's obvious if the place you search for is not in the list. I also thought the search was broken

I'm imagine a dragon that has been sleeping beneath the sea for hundred years just woke up, and nothing is gonna change my mind

Fun fact: Boss as a service = BaaS, which is the same as the Afrikaans translation of Boss :)

Even apple can't tell the difference between twins

I think this is great for HTC, HTC is really good on hardware, and are only really struggling with marketing their phones, partnering with Google is almost a no brainer

I see myself using this

Is this for the GauTrain? or normal MetroRail service?

Hi OP here: I am building a music sharing app i.e (you paste any URL from any* streaming site, you get all other streaming sites links to the same song/album). I managed to make this work as a proof of concept (using Bing Cognitive Search) but the rate limit is quite low at 1k p/m, i'm looking for alternative ways to get the different urls. Check working example of site here: http://www.musicshare.ninja/artist/Kendrick%20Lamar%20/album... if by the time you hit this link I've hit my quota, believe me it works.

HAHAHAHAHA! I laughed at this

there's an official "experimental" Java version on github, and many people are using and commiting to it

"... often judged SOLELY..." This makes it sound like they can't be judged on anything else, still a very bad way to describe what UX designers do

This is nice and almost perfect, the only improvement I would like is to change the metrices, I live in South Africa and it would be very nice if I could see my prices in ZAR (South African Rands) and my Temperature in Degrees Celcius, apart from that, great site, planning a trip in March for my birthday and definitely will be using this :)

Google Play Movies is another alternative for pay per view

I'm currently a software developer, if I'd change I would go into genetics, more like what CRISPR is doing, from programming computers to programming living beings :D

Such a shame that Privacy.com app is country locked, I'm from South Africa and would definitely use something like this
