EDIT: Wilfred IS the original author [3]; my apologies. Not to discredit Wilfred (it looks like he's taken over the project as the maintainer), but, based on the historical contributions [1], it looks like it was originally developed b

Hey, HN! Creator here! I started building Plain Text Sports last year when I was watching an NFL playoff game in rural southwest Wisconsin. We had poor TV reception -- the image was going in-and-out -- and the local radio station was mostly

Is there a WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get [1]) document editor that is built on a foundation of HTML/CSS, and explicitly surfaces operations that map to CSS features, like flexbox? Changing the base style just means writing CSS

Guilty [1]. But it's really hard to handle both light and dark color themes! On a dark terminal you're probably more likely to use the "Bright" variants when using the default 16 color palette, but then you'll have

(Author here) Homebrew support was added entirely with macOS in mind, but Homebrew for Linux uses the same repository of formulas as Homebrew for macOS [1], so you get Linux support for free. I included Homebrew for Linux because it's

Oops, sorry, I haven't actually made a new release with those commands yet. I'll need to have better discipline maintaining a separate `latest` branch for the website...

Sorry! Someone already filed an issue about this [1], but I haven't had time to investigate exactly what is appropriate to put there. I don't use Linux, nor have I ever released and distributed open-source software before, so I&#x

Author here! When I originally submitted it, it didn't get a lot of traction (it got on the front-page via the second chance pool a couple days later), and I definitely regretted not including "written in Rust" in the title.

This reminds me of a very poor interview question I asked a couple of times (and then never asked again because it is a terrible, terrible, interview question). The snake cube puzzle [1] is a puzzle where you have to fold up a string of 27

I browsed Fiverr to find a few artists whose styles were similar to what I had in mind, then messaged a few of them. annatgraphics [1] was able to take my crude color pencil sketches and turn them into the slick art you see today! [1]: htt

Thanks to the both of you! plaintextsports was my real passion project over the past year (probably 3x more time spent on it than jless!), so I really appreciate it when other people find value in it. I'm a Milwaukee Bucks fan and buil

Yup, someone already made a PR for to add these! It turns out the behavior is pretty subtle in terms of how it handles count arguments (it's actually stateful!), and where the focus moves. I'll take some time to figure out how to

That's certainly the plan! I've never released a project like this, so I wasn't sure what the process is for adding things to Homebrew, or other package managers. A few people have been really helpful and already added it to

Anything longer than a few sentences I'll write in vim and am always horrified when I copy to Gmail or Google docs and find spelling mistakes, duplicated words, and incomplete sentences everywhere.

This is incredible! While just controlling the soprano, it does the voice leading for all the other voices and composes together actual chord progressions. I don't have a good enough ear to determine whether it actually stay in the sam

Wow, this is a really great article. Thank you for sharing! It discusses a fascinating point about browser UI: when the browser displays something inside its chrome, where a malicious page could render arbitrary pixels, it must establish a

Blind mode is great! It'd be cool to be able to see the entire tournament bracket at the end -- I can only see the font that won, but the others were pretty close. I want to see when the font I normally use got knocked out. Also, for r

Directly related to dithering and compression, Return of the Obra Dinn is, to an certain extent, an "unstreamable game". When this streamer on Twitch tried to play it [1], the quality of his composited webcam would immediately dro

I don't understand why GitHub hasn't solved the issue of diffs starting with a '}' (or ')' or 'end'). Just slide the diff over while it starts with a closing token! I suppose it's an artifact of
