• Ask HN: Share Your YoutTube Channel

  Here’s mine: https://youtube.com/@chadobear I have a repo with some of the stuff I use to produce my videos, too: https://gitlab.com/crgk/chadobear-monorepo/-/tree/main/studio?ref_type=heads It’s very sloppy and hacky and maybe(?) more interesting to this audience than the videos themselves. - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

• I learned Vulkan and wrote a small game engine with it (in 3 months)

  Highly recommend this guy’s channel, he livestreams building a Vulkan game engine and he has a crazy style too https://youtube.com/@tokyospliff?si=CMF53295xeETykbP. - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

• Broadcom's VMware strategy looks ever more shaky – and less relevant

  Probably. One of the most informative channels out there. https://youtube.com/@asianometry. - Source: Hacker News / 10 days ago

• Kernel dev writes a USB driver from scratch in 3h [video]

  I need to make sure that SerenityOS project owner Andreas Kling’s channel is mentioned: https://youtube.com/@awesomekling He hasn’t been uploading much recently but the backlog is full of OS development, applications ported to his OS and his most recent mission, building a web browser from scratch. - Source: Hacker News / 18 days ago

• Windows 10 wallpaper was physically built and photographed

  This is basically how product photography works if you’re on a budget. You keep the camera fixed in place but adjust the lighting between shots. Then, in post, choose your favorite components of each image and composite them together in Photoshop. I like watching a YouTube channel called “workphlo” that does this. The core process is the same for all of the items, but it’s quite enjoyable to see him vary the... - Source: Hacker News / 22 days ago

• Tell HN: My Favorite Tools

  A few apps that are a joy to use: https://ia.net/writer for writing. https://usecontrast.com/ for checking contrast. https://sipapp.io/ for picking colors. https://nova.app/ for editing code. https://cleanshot.com/ for screenshots. https://getpixelsnap.com/ for measuring elements on screen. https://netnewswire.com/ for reading things via RSS. https://panic.com/transmit/ for file transfers. https://usefathom.com/... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Ask HN: Best UI design courses for hackers?

• Build Products that don’t SUCK

  Create a low-fidelity mockup or wireframe of your MVP using tools like Balsamiq, Sketch, or Figma. Or use an easier-to-use tool like Uizard, which also has text-to-design capabilities. Source: 10 months ago

• Starting Design Work in a Spreadsheet

  Just for drawing mock app screens, I have found Balsamiq[0] to be pretty good (you can do a bunch of stuff with the trial version itself). Not affiliated with them in any way. [0]: https://balsamiq.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Is there software for building out copywriting for a website?

  Balsamiq has been pretty good for me so far. It's super bare-bones so it's better for copy mockups than actual UX design. It's also a lot easier than Figma. Note that you don't have to use the default comic sans, but I do because it's funny. Source: over 1 year ago
