I was told that some people in Busan, the Korean city nearest to Japan, felt the earthquake and even felt dizzy.

Oh wow, yes I remember now, I used to type `Alt+F` and then `S` immediately because Notepad didn't support `Ctrl+S` back then. Thanks for giving me nostalgia!

> Some time ago, I noted that the Windows 95 CD contained a variety of multimedia extras That "some time ago" is 20 years ago. It is crazy that Raymond has been able to consistentl…

I tested the demo at https://moq.dev/publish/ and it's buttery as hell. Very impressive. Thanks for the great technology! Watching the Big Buck Bunny demo at https://moq.dev/watch/…

Actually the default value of `APT::Install-Recommends` had been false, and it was changed to true in Debian 6.0 Squeeze (2011-02-06). I didn't like the change at the time because …

There still seem to be some remaining issues. My Cloudflare Pages site is still giving me 500 errors. I looked up the response headers and realized that when requests are served by…

Off topic, but it is good to see an article about the LIEF library on Hacker News. I recently had a need to modify the header of an ELF file and LIEF was a lifesaver. Thanks to all…

History classes are always fun! I didn't know dash had the command history feature. It is just disabled by default.

Yeah, I also used Docker (actually, Podman) as an alternative Python package manager and it worked well enough. Most of all, it felt somewhat cleaner and more reproducible than usi…

A very well written article! I admire the analysis done by the author regarding the difficulties of Python packaging. With the advent of uv, I'm finally feeling like Python packagi…

Just the default one. I tried some alternative keyboards and they are better in some ways but in the end the default keyboard was enough. Termius provides input of some special key…

I tried Mosh but it didn't fit my taste. It tries to "predict" the state of the screen before being acknowledged by the server, but sometimes the prediction is wrong and Mosh rever…

I also write code using my phone when I'm on a bus or the subway. It requires some patience but after getting used to it, the experience is surprisingly pleasant especially if you'…

> if "rm -i" is the default the "rm" level gets disabled, because "rm -i -f" is the same as "rm -f" You can use "\rm" to invoke the non-aliased version of the command. I made "rm -…

> to overload the bit shift operators for stream I/O MFC extends this idea to network programming, allowing the use of shift operators to send and receive data.

We have github.com/[username].gpg to get their OpenPGP keys, too!

> states.intersection({'VALID'} | {'IN_PROGRESS'}) Does this Python code count? Haha.

The cool thing about this project is that as it uses systemd's socket activation, it requires no server processes at all. There is no waste of resources when Cockpit is not being u…

The funny thing is, I do know about WeeChat (the IRC client) and did use it in the past, but still thought the article was about WeChat (the Chinese messaging service) for a moment…

Oh wow. So some countries had free local calls, which boosted the local BBS culture. That's pretty cool, huh. I had no idea. In my home country there was no such thing, so BBS's te…

I also learned the lesson to use a different history file recently. I added `HISTSIZE=-1` to `~/.bashrc` to make the number of items stored in the history unlimited, but the histor…

They said they were planning to expand its coverage to the multi-region use case last year[1], but nothing's concrete. I've heard good things about Fauna, but having to rely on the…

I recently tried CockroachDB's serverless offering and I was very satisfied with it. It has a generous free tier, easy-to-understand pricing, and a query analyzer that helps me est…
