Hey! First was just a test to see if I could. Then became a pretty fun test on iteration loops. How little I could be involved and what kind of instruction works best. It's a langu…

Outside of making something - it’s very useful for setting up a quick project. Stackblitz did this with Node (aka their Web Containers). You could make a new project very quickly a…

It’s to connect phone numbers to identities. Getting a physical sim in China involves going in person to a store where they keep your passport and a mugshot (you hold a paper with …

This is a very interesting way of putting it. The way I’ve explained it is “unserious surprise” which also fits with this. https://emnudge.dev/blog/a-grand-theory-of-humor/

Having things "just work" can be really appealing. I once had an issue where my Linux distro of choice was having a tough time with my monitor orientation. I got quite a few linux …

German would be helpful for me

Hey, HN! I get onboarded to new projects sometimes with a bunch of local unstructured logs already set up. They come from different parts of the application at different layers - m…

Hey, HN! Whenever I'm onboarded onto new codebases, I have a tough time finding my own debug logs when there are hundreds of logs from different systems all cluttering the terminal…

I'm pretty sure he knows what Doordash is. I assume the thing that doesn't exist is ordering via a phone line, not an internet-based interface. i.e. texting or calling a number in …

My previous understanding was that service would be stopped once you hit past the free tier. Upon review, it does not look like this is the case. I have several very low traffic pr…

If we’re doing self promo, I’ve got something similar but significantly smaller in scope: https://github.com/EmNudge/watlings

I sunk a decent amount of time into WebAssembly over the past few months (I am the author of "watlings"). From my understanding, there are 3 answers here. 1. Most spaces do not nee…

That looks super useful! I wish I knew about this when first learning wat. This would make a great reference!

I really like Exercism! Unfortunately their exercise model is considerably more free-form where it teaches you considerably less and in much larger chunks. I think this is a great …

Author here! My initial motivation to learn WASM (as someone from a primarily web background) was that I had a pretty poor understanding of WASM in general and so I had a lot of di…

While I've yet to do it, I've heard of many people using it for peer to peer file transfer. I tend to transfer files between devices pretty often and have never found a perfect sol…

Actually, it supports regex! I detail this a bit more in the readme, but it supports general JS notation for certain things. Surround your search with /these/ to perform a regex ma…

Heyo! I've only recently dug into the big world of Unicode, but when doing so, I found the tools available sorely lacking. Most were server-side or needed to be downloaded and had …

Quick correction: it is not the same as eval. It does not have access to the current scope. It is technically a fair bit safer when trying to run code from a string. It may have ac…
