About perpil

Founder of Speedrun https://speedrun.cc Speedrun is markdown to build tools. It's an extension to GitHub markdown to prompt for inputs, get temporary AWS credentials, run Javascript and reference configuration so your READMEs, runbooks and documentation can do what they describe with a click.

    I modified the script to start collapsed. Code is in this issue if you would like to try it: https://github.com/twalichiewicz/HNewhere/issues/5

    Tampermonkey isn't better than using a Chrome extension, but it's less friction for a developer to build and distribute a cross browser script. If they build it as an extension, th…

    This is slick. 2 things. 1. If you name your script with the extension .user.js it is easier to click on to automatically install at least with tampermonkey. 2. When I went to this…

    I first thought this was some spin on May the fourth be with you. As in how Yoda might say it.

    This page says bundle size is 14MB: https://blackboard.sh/electrobun/docs/

    Consider removing this from the landing page if you want to be taken seriously: "we are in the pursuit of greatness. fueled by caffeine, nicotine, and pure chaos"

    Agreed, maybe a forest fire or lightning strike might have made it more obvious that charring preserved. Charcoal in a campfire could have easily disappeared in the next fire. They…

    This is very thorough, but I have a few things to add if you are using Node 22. I benchmarked Node 22 earlier this year using something similar to the light benchmark. https://spee…

    Its predecessor (mkdocs material) supported blogs via a plugin and rss feeds via a mkdocs plugin ( https://guts.github.io/mkdocs-rss-plugin/ ). I don't believe it supports blogs ye…

    My read of this: https://www.alaskaair.com/content/about-us/customer-commitme... indicates you should be able to get a discount code of $50 if your flight was delayed 3 hours if yo…

    This is not about the AWS Console. It is talking about the customer's site hosted on CloudFront. It is possible to cross wires with user sessions when using CloudFront if you haven…

    Also see https://runme.dev for a similar approach or https://speedrun.cc if you'd like it to work straight from GitHub markdown.

    The fact you've copied screen.studio so closely leaves a bad taste in my mouth. On the landing page you apply formatting in Google Sheets, just like screen studio does. It's ok to …

    Not OP but was there 15 years (left Dec 2021) and surprised I wasn't aware of this. I was only aware of a few tools that acted like chatbots to automatically gather context or take…

    When I was at AWS, I built something so I could run things straight from the wiki. Think cloudwatch queries, aws cli commands etc with user inputs but without all the setup of secu…

    The video on your landing page is too long for my tastes. A 1-5 minute video quickly showing the features would have more impact than your 20 minute walkthrough attempting to show …

    I did something like this but it helps you build exact command lines or interact with AWS straight from your GitHub markdown. As a bonus, it very easily lets you prompt the user fo…

    Servpro doesn't fix heaters, they mitigate fire damage. They came expecting to fix fire damage, not a heater.

    I do something like this with https://speedrun.cc except it runs in the browser on top of your markdown in GitHub. This lets you prompt for inputs and run JavaScript and use a tool…

    Neat, you might also look at https://speedrun.cc for ideas. It's a slightly different space, it's markdown to wrap tools with UI's instead of to plot things, but the way I enable y…
