I installed dokuwiki on a raspberry pi and forwarded port 80 through my router so I can access it from anywhere and send links to others. Oh and there's a dns entry setup using duckdns.org, which is free, although I did send them a small donation (in bitcoin!).

If no one ever re-invented the wheel our cars would still be rolling on stone wheels.
Cars never rolled on stone wheels. Flintstones was a cartoon, not a documentary.
Go ahead and shatter my illusions, why don't you.

What additional things have you wanted to xo?
One of the major omissions is that there is no "GROUP BY" equivalent. For example I wanted to generate a table with average book rating grouped by author, but it wasn't possible.

What is the consequences of ignoring this if you are outside of California?
If any user of the service is in California, then the state can potentially take legal action against you. Whether this really matters to a particular company depends on where they are, but full-faith-and-credit means that at a minimum anyone based in the US has to worry about it.

#95How can a website / service be operated in 2015 without any contact or legal information? How am I supposed to use this for my personal information without being able to read the privacy statements or knowing who's operating the service to what purpose? Edit: To make the reason for my comment clear, there was no link in the footer like there is now at the time I wrote it.
If your MVP won't fly, legal info won't help and is a waste of time and resources. If it will, you can always add it in the future. The percentage of people who will complain or not use the service at all without reading the Terms of Use first is… well, I have no idea what it is, but let's just say it won't move the needle.
Contact information is more important, and easy to add, so it should be there.

Don't get too attached. Keep is being discontinued in the next few months. Something better is replacing it, eventually, but just keep that in mind.
I was unable to find anything that suggests this. Are you speculating?
Re: Show HN: FAQT – A lightweight, personal knowledge base
#97Sounds interesting ! And quite funny since I was looking for something similar last week (and didn't find anything really fitting what I want). A couple of questions : - do you have any kind of versioning/revision history ? Especially on the individuals "facts" - do you have a search function ? How does it work ? - Any kind of tagging system apart from the color code ? - any way to export the raw data ? - any plan of…
It's more designed for use within an organisation rather than individuals, but works very nicely for small numbers of users. And as it has a plugin API, you can extend it easily.

#98There is not as much features, but it's open source and self hosted.

#99Another "write your text here" and nothing more app. I'm not questioning the usefulness of this, but why do we have so many simple apps like these? People writing code to do the same thing over and over again, aren't you bored?
evernote kind of apps don't work. Except Google Keep. Keep kinda works.
