    Zim desktop wiki seems to fit you requirements. It's local and designed for a single user, but if coupled with Syncthing works across devices nicely.

    Just my initial response. Maybe fine a better first example? It is quite code dense: conv = c.aggregate({ "a": c.reduce(c.ReduceFuncs.Array, c.item("a")), "a_sum": c.reduce(c.Reduc…

    Similar to this [0] from a few years ago. That one also had some basic encryption included. Some previous discussions[1,2] of that tool highlights that this can easily be abused fo…

    I like the idea, I've even written something similar myself, but for me a few things were not clear. How would I load in data that is stored on my harddrive (not web addressable) w…

    But it is also true that: let a = {key: 'a'}; function foo( a ) { a['otherKey'] = 'b'; } foo( a ); console.log( a ); // {key: 'a',otherKey: 'b'}

    I just want to chime in and say that I've had a look and a quick play with mypost.io and think it looks awesome. Like many of the links on this HN thread, but with way more feature…

    The 2016 leap second is later today[0], and I'm trying to make a countdown timer so I can see it happen. I've tried to make a timer in Javascript using the built-in Date() method, …

    I think it would be interesting to read about the decision process that decided on the 1.4MW of power generation to 6MWh of storage ratio. This is around 1:4.2h. Is this ratio very…

    If you are plotting using a canvas - not building a SVG or on the dom - then even 50000 points is fine, no need to filter even on mobile devices. A 100,000 data point file would be…

    It uses SVG on D3. So I don't think so. If you need 10000> points and interactivity you could try my own: http://generalsarsby.github.io/mjs_plot/

    The fact that on the summary page there isn't a number showing the significance is very worrying. As the whole reason for it is to make a binary choice, there could be a 2 line chu…

    Running their numbers: Assuming the usual sqrt(n+1) error on a count, as n is low. Combining the uncertainties from 83/66 [0] gives 1.258 +- 0.231 (1sd). It's only just likely that…

    HN protects itself quite well from very long URLs. But reddit[0] will happily host 20kB. https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/47gjbv/experim...

    I remember someone built it, they abused self posts for storage. My google-fu is failing and I can't find it.
