Ask HN: Monitor for programming – modern LEDs are poor for texthttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10134667When looking for a new monitor I found out that old LED screens were far better in displaying text, especially white/gray on black (a Linux terminal).Particularly a modern Dell LED IPS screen is worse than Benq TN LCD model from 2009, and far worse than Eizo 2004 LCD MVA model (it was a budget model).I checked other cheap modern LED monitors and they all seem to have the same problem with displaying text - it looks like "shining neons" whereas on old LEDs text is more "flat" and looks closer to real paper. Games and videos look brighter and shinier but text is inferior.I'm using Ubuntu (I find it's text antialiasing to be generally superb), and I mainly work inside xterms for many hours a day. I know that my issue sounds petty, but I actually feel discomfort when working on modern LED screens and I'm looking for a replacement.The questions is: has anybody felt the same issue and found a solution? Do more expensive monitors are better in this regard? Are cheap 4k monitors good for text?Aug 28, 2015 10:42 AM

HN: need advice/helphttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10131485I'm a young hacker who's in a bit of trouble.Without getting too long winded, I'm recently out of college and living in a home I inherited after my mother passed. I was lax about maintenance while in school (and take full responsibility for that.)The city health department sent me a letter about my house's paint-job and I tried to comply.Apparently my paint-job was insufficient, so they brought legal charges against me which resulted in 2 years of probation and 30 days of jail if I'm unable to fix it in 60 days. The obvious thing to do is hire a professional, but I'm completely out of money now. The court tacks on hundreds in fees, which has drained my account.I've never run afoul of the law and this whole experience has made me terribly afraid. I never set out to hurt or bother anyone in the world - all I do is solve math problems and write software for fun.My request is that if anyone has any sort of little programming work that I could do for some small amount of money, then I will Aug 27, 2015 7:23 PM
