#32Earlier quoted context omitted.
Hmh; I think there might have been kinda misunderstanding (?) - I'll edit my comment to change "interesting" to "nice", hopefully this way it will better express my original intent. In other words, big thanks for making me aware of the FASM! Not sure if I'll ever use it, but totally worth remembering for future, just in case. Or, who knows; maybe for some hobby AVRing I hope to do it'd be actually easier than the who…
Your use of the word "apart" right at the beginning is likely to be a cause of confusion. Clearly, in this context, you mean it in the "as well as" sense, but I initially read it in the "instead of" sense, and I think most other English-as-1st-language speakers would do the same. Qualifying it e.g. "quite apart from..." can avoid the misunderstanding.

You obviously didn't scrutinize my code :-)

#34Still, every interaction I have had with HN this year always results in lots of hosts getting said results, and while this one is going, the most offensive host: 207.226.141.203 (dns: 207-226-141-203.static.pccwglobal.net) .. 1800 requests and counting from that host... ??

#35I made a docker image for this: https://github.com/agonzalezro/docker-hnwatch If you want to run it: docker run -it agonzalezro/hnwatch I don't know why but hnwatch doesn't look like working ATM. I've tried in a Linux box (without docker) and I have the same problem with the tty, it's just loading 4 news and no comments or similar.

wow really bad now, my program is mostly useless without firebaseio... should I ring them?

#37The list of articles then continues to be populated very slowly (I'm up to 12 now after a minute or so maybe?).
I've tried it on two different networks, one of them being 100/100mbit/s fiberoptics.
Am I missing something?

#38I really don't get this to work as I feel it should. Initially I get like 4 articles showing up, sometimes two articles have the same pos-value.

Dude, use alpine (~5MB) rather than ubuntu (~190MB) for the base image!
