>And for the UI I just pipe everything to the system's "less" command. I never thought of that as an option. Thanks for the tip haha.

By "it" do you mean landlock or fil-c? Also elaboration would be nice.

I read somewhere that Hacker News should have been named Startup News, and sometimes interactions like the one upthread reminds me of that. I'm not saying it's wrong - if you're go…

That's gross misrepresentation. He wrote _lots_ of helpful educational articles on zig that painted it in a good light. I would know because I learned a great deal from his posts w…

Idk, Andrew's comment seems fair enough to me.

I once explored doing just that: https://github.com/nhanb/boast However I never got around to finishing it, mainly because I couldn't decide on where to stop: should I also generat…

FWIW he _is_ an example already: https://rsync.net/

A static site generator: https://hi.imnhan.com/s4g/ Not the most original of ideas, but I was really sold on djot [1] and wanted something less fussy than pelican [2], so it just h…

Husky (android app) does support multi-account. I'm using it right now. I imagine there should be something equivalent for ios. It's not rocket science.

You misread. They said the opposite: > Websites in the, (late), 1990s were characterised by many things, but a typical list might include: > - Serif fonts

I would only use this kind of thing on the root element, then size all other elements relative to the root element e.g. h1 { font-size: 1.5rem; }. It's more manageable that way IMH…

I've always liked ExoticSilicon's design, but not until this post did I realize their smart bit of CSS for default font size: font-size: min(max(1em, 1.3vw), 1.3em); Which explains…

Yeah that's the one!

Not GP but one disadvantage of updating one huge file is it's harder to do efficient incremental backups. Theoretically it can still be done if your backup software supports e.g. c…

Go's io/fs[0] design is one of the more successful ideas inspired by Plan 9 imho. If we can't have a 9p-centric OS, the next best thing is a 9p-like interface in a language's stand…

Could you share your current phone model and OS?

For python we've been using poetry[1] at work. Dep resolution is a bit slow but otherwise it works well enough, definitely a saner choice than pulling in a completely different sta…
