https://www.hncli.newstackwhodis.com I'm working on a TUI Hacker News reader made in Rust! No AI, no credentials needed.

https://www.newstackwhodis.com An ever-WIP collection of projects and blog posts. https://www.hncli.newstackwhodis.com Website for hncli, a TUI Hacker News reader made in Rust.

Nice project! I've been working on something similar [0] also running in the terminal as a TUI. It's made in Rust with a quite novel architecture described in my blog [1]. There's …

I've been working on a Hacker News TUI reader written in Rust [0]. I'm very proud of the way the architecture turned out - with most notably a components-driven architecture [1]. T…

My go-to editor was Paint.Net on Windows too, it's really good. When I switched to macOS, I found Krita which is pretty nice. I have really basic needs and Krita is free, so your m…

That's really interesting, I did not know about that, thanks for the link ! It's highly specific but could make a lot of cool "wow-effect" products or software suddenly viable, esp…

This is an excellent link, well known in the "community" around this. To add to it, here's a famous and really clear sub-2 minutes representation of the scales involved if it helps…

Very cool article! If you want to know more about the hardware side of the Game Boy (Color), have a look at the Pan Docs: https://gbdev.io/pandocs/ It's been revamped in the recent…

Great visual explanation, thanks. "Old" gaming systems are so interesting in their architecture, and consequently tricks that game developers had to do to eke out the necessary per…

This is incredibly cool, thanks to Don Hopkins for open-sourcing the original (C, C++ or Java implementations) micropolis codebase [1] ! As a shameless plug, I've been for the last…

It is!

> Hmm, what did I miss, why do people hate them exactly? In my experience, enums are far less type safe and convenient (usage in switch for instance, combined with a linter) than u…

The iOS version is also great!

You may want to check out this webpack plugin [1], though I'm not sure how much it could get you there. [1] https://github.com/TypeStrong/fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin...

There are also plenty of silent enough mechanical keyboards!

Unfortunately, I've found at my previous employer that JSDoc is incredibly limited and fails at some basic structures, has very limited generic support and will not understand "adv…

As said elsewhere, I've had excellent X11 experience with WSL2 at least thanks to the open-source VcXsrv.

Rust complexity is a bit overblown. I also revert automatically to it now if I feel like Typescript (Node.js) won't cut it, even for I may be biased since I've been using it for al…

Because it will not work with the rest of your gear.

Oh yeah definitely! Rust would be awesome but I think I'd want it to be as accessible as possible. Tagged unions and proper error handling would make it much saner though that's fo…

I'm currently in the middle of implementing an OAuth 2.0 authorization server following the RFC draft of the best current practice [1]. It's been a huge pain navigating all the int…

> How often do you need a whole collection of string manipulation functions? Never! It would just add to the size of dist folders everywhere, with no gain whatsoever. I mean that's…

> In the Python world, you can install an "extra" along with a package. So you can make the deliberate decision to omit Unicode case folding from your CommonMark parser. Maybe some…

Their proprietary code analysis [0] is mostly better than the Rust Language Server for now, even if I still use VS Code personally. [0] https://intellij-rust.github.io/

On your last point, I feel like components this basic should really rather be addressed at the real theming level, i.e. in CSS. Utility-first CSS frameworks are awesome if you get …
