Ask HN: I'm homeless and I got the job – now how do I find housing?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42001314As it currently stands, I have a government IT job -- in addition get a pension and have good job stability, the only wrinkle is maintaining residence in the area said local government serves.I'm making ~80k, and for context with 15ish-k I could put a down payment on a cheap house in the city (where the schools are worse but taxes are lower)... but with an eviction most landlords won't even consider me.What I'd like to do is find a cheap apartment, save aggressively, and find a house in the city.(It's like a lot of America here -- the city schools suck, but you have a lot less taxes, so you can get a good deal if you're single on something a very short commute to our downtown.)I'm also homeless.I tried moving out of a bad domestic violence situation, but got laid off after about six months as COVID fell.One of my parents had the beginning of Alzheimer's, and would wave a handgun around if he perceived disrespect. The local police allowed it.Imagine trying to interview or study for OSCPOct 30, 2024 10:42 PM

Seeking Adoption: dotnet time-travel debugging for distributed systemshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41944287Hi,A few years ago, I faced challenges while working with a complex microservices system. The system’s tests relied on non-deterministic data, and reproducing intricate business scenarios or bugs locally was almost impossible. These issues prompted me to create a tool that simplifies the workflow by enabling record and replay of service interactions.The core idea is to record all calls and data associated with a specific request, allowing easy replay for two primary cases: - Troubleshooting Test Failures: When tests fail, this tool makes it easier to pinpoint the exact service where data differences occurred. It identifies whether failures stem from the use of external data. - Reproducing Business Scenarios: The workflow can be recorded by a client or PM, and the resulting state can be provided directly to the developer, creating a reproducible scenario for troubleshooting.The tool leverages DispatchProxy to create decorators for every interface within the service, recording variable vOct 25, 2024 11:41 AM

Show HN: 2048 turned 10 this year, I built an updated version to celebratehttps://play2048.coHi all! My name is Gabriele Cirulli, I’m the original creator of 2048. Ten years ago, someone posted 2048 on HN[1] and suddenly it seemed like everyone was playing it. Back then, I wrote a bit about my experience during those weeks[2].Even after all these years, that experience still feels a bit surreal to me. I’m deeply grateful to everyone who connected with the game, whether in small or significant ways, and for the stories shared along the way. Some people expressed how they were going through tough times and found some comfort, however small, in playing 2048.At the start of last year, I wanted to breathe new life into the game as it was starting to show its age. I quit my job last October to work on 2048 full time and spent a year building this new version (the original took just 5 days!). I wanted to pay tribute to what made 2048 great while modernizing and polishing the experience.The idea of adding powerups came when Prime Gaming and I connected to see if we could create a specOct 24, 2024 12:15 PM
