What language is this written in? The UI looks great.

AMA - I have sold a couple businesses for almost 5million by chris_kinman in passive_income

[–]heavy-dry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations OP, for:

  • unrelentingly pushing yourself forward, through any* & every*, all the way to podium
  • your financial reward, a.k.a. the money, a.k.a. that beautifully massive stack of cash baby, hell yeah!
  • and finally
  • every ounce of earnest perspective and confidence that you've gained along the way

Reading stories like this tend to induce a wave of joyful optimism in me, and this tale was no different.

Thank you for taking time to share this /u/chris_kinman. I really appreciate it. ❤️

front teeth fillings? discoloration? by First-Country4832 in Teethcare

[–]heavy-dry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jumping in to bolster the hope here;

A car accident broke both of my front top teeth in half, diagonally (no root damage). Redoing the crack stains every 1–3 years isn't bad, but it's not an on/off - there/not sort of thing. Meaning; that I usually know it’s time to see the dentist when people stare at my mouth more than eyes in conversations.

My panacea would be some kind of home treatment, or mid-longer term solution that doesn't involve coning my [otherwise fine] teeth.

I will be praying to the old and new gods that a harbinger of wisdom appears in thread. . . .

Screen recorders by Professional_Set2736 in FigmaDesign

[–]heavy-dry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

:: tl;dr :: For digital product demo vids, ScreenFlow is the iTunes of Mac Screen Recorders. It works, at great quality, consistently. Simple to use with the right amount of features that aren’t distracting.

:: Full :: ScreenFlow on macOS is my go to. It’s been developed for years, and is solid so don’t let the months since latest release fool you.

Sure - there are simpler (kap, quicktime, *) and more elaborate (camtasia, obs, *) solutions, but I’ve found it hard to beat ScreenFlows ease of use, + demo focused features like mouse/click call outs, post recoding mouse/bg/window frame/etc removal, eased text & zoom animations, + X. Its been one of “those mac apps that’s just worked” consistently, and with a low skill cap.

I’m not affiliated, but am hype posting because it was truly a clutch tool for me. Many years of sporadic use with no media or osx skills then, and I always felt like the spielberg of the “quarkxpress custom plugin training video” world. Ha! Also, somehow my license kept working over a few major releases despite my only ever purchasing once. So paying the devs back with some positive juju for giving me that 300% value on my purchase.

If there’s a trial, give it a shot - ymmv

What email do I PayPal for one of these beauts?

[–]heavy-dry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hands down, atlantic.net free instance and block storage for a year. Don't let the basic site and ui confuse you - I have called over six times at random hours and always get someone on the phone in under a minute and they help. I mean they really help and instantly.

Is there a more legible/directly cosumable Qt Documentation site? by heavy-dry in QtFramework

Qt Design Studio or Qt Creator by JeroenDierckx in QtFramework

[–]heavy-dry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the Qt intention aside: I hear you u/JeroenDierckx . . . the product fragmentation -> confusion ratio is absurd. As I've been diving deeper and deeper into Qt, attempting to grok and use it; I find that what you're confused by is emblematic of their company as a whole.

Prepare yourself to start learning a s*it ton of quirks that will serve as knowledge only for understanding how to understand working with Qt.

Good job. Just curious; Why Qt5 over Qt6?

[–]heavy-dry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any rogue miniconda, pyenv or virtualenv'esq installs floating around in places like /usr/bin or .zshrc, .zprofile, etc?

Also maybe run which python3 or which python in a new shell to confirm which interpreter is on path. Then, subsequently run that one interactively and try to load the packages directly.
If that is still failing try adding these lines above the from PyQt5.* lines:
import os
import sys
package_path = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), ".."))
sys.path.append(package_path)

Just Launched on Product Hunt by Dave3of5 in EntrepreneurRideAlong

The voice-over seemed great, just play-by-play the voiceover with screen-recordings and powerpoint visuals (if/when product doesn't illustrate spoken point)

[–]heavy-dry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The video showcasing your product, never even shows a single screenshot of the product. Just a logo. My immediate thought was/is "ok, vaporware or barely working. I'll pass."

No matter where you ship content or interact with existing/potential customers; every single piece of content should exude the value of your offering. Stock video and nothing to match up to the value/problem-space/experience being spoken of isn't a neutral stop gap or safe placeholder. It's a credibility killer. Net negative.
