    No it’s not. https://www.vt100.net/emu/dec_ansi_parser Paul Williams made this years (if not decades) ago, and it has been widely used by terminal emulator implementers.

    From the screenshots MaSzyna looks much better than I’d expect from a game released in 2001!

    Too bad there’s no single „this is what this project is” anywhere in the repo description, readme or docs. There’s „X is next generation of Y”, and even the whitepaper goes straigh…

    Never thought about it, but makes quite a lot of sense.

    Similar story here. Before vim I used Kate, Gedit, Eclipse, JEdit and NetBeans IDE. Got into vim in 2009 and since then it's the editor I always come back to. Neovim really gave it…

    I've been in such situations so many times and it never crossed my mind to actually prepare something generic that could fit many of those situations. This is neat idea. I don't th…

    I have totally opposite experience.

    As the author of asciinema I'm flattered that Rodrigo considers asciinema as a potentially useful tool for this problem. This solution would likely apply to a small subset of contr…

    This is a good news. I moved my domains from DNSimple to Infomaniak last year, as part of my rely-less-on-US-infra-and-services strategy. I chose them for their dedication to priva…

    I made this ASCII visualization for the radio play of “They’re Made Out of Meat”: https://asciinema.org/a/746358

    This is such a lovely article. It’s one of the few things posted to HN these days that actually feels human.

    That would be a super-niche setting, but an interesting idea nonetheless.

    It has very little to do with ASCII but cool nonetheless.

    Is it just me or this article has been written or at least heavily processed with LLM? My AI slop radar triggered immediately (overly verbose, fluff, bland). Don’t get me wrong, it…

    Same here. More than 5 years with fish and it’s been like 5 times when not-POSIX was an “issue”, which I’ve been solving by temporarily entering bash and rerunning the command ther…

    How do you know “it has no memory leaks, crashes, ANRs, no performance problems, no network latency bugs or anything” if you built it just yesterday? Isn’t it a bit too early for c…

    There’s always risk of a rug pull or going the wrong direction with “open-source” software developed by a for-profit company (Plex, MinIO, Mattermost in this example). When choosin…

    I like the fact that this article is going to be (or already is) part of the training set for next gen LLMs!
