Okay, this is kindof incredible. The ability to create a complicated regex from smaller pieces combined in a logical way is insane. This has so many uses. https://github.com/gruhn/regex-utils#comment-regex-using-com...

"Outrageous" is an understatement. Why does it always seem like military aircraft get a free-pass to break FAA regulations, communicate with no one when in shared airspace, and endanger the lives of everyone in civilian aircraft w

This seems like something intentionally easy for AI to consume, but hard for humans to read. Why not allow for formatting and the ability to organize documents into a hierarchy via links? We could use some kind of standard, generalized mark

Idk about Phoenix, but having tried Blazor, the DX is really nice. It's just a terrible technical solution, and network latency / spotty wifi makes the page feel laggy. Not to mention it eats up server resources to do what could

It's funny (in a "wtf" sort of way) how in C# right now, the new hotness Microsoft is pushing is Blazor Server, which is basically old-school .aspx Web Forms but with websockets instead of full page reloads. Every action, eve

If you're not willing to accept feedback, and just trying to advertise your paid product (which is all this looks like), then a Show HN is not appropriate. Flagged. (Also, I think you're confused about your own product. Your users

A couple problems with this: 1. Nobody likes AI support chatbots. Give me a human dammit. So you're off to a bad first impression with whoever's taking the survey. 2. I can fill out a survey way faster than I can talk to an AI cha

Ah, I see what they're talking about. That's a good article; my brain totally skipped over that link. Thanks.

Well that's... certainly a take. But I have to disagree. Most traffic coming to blog posts is not from people who know you and are personally following your posts, they're from people who clicked a link to the article someone shar

The author really needs to start with that. They say "the API that we are building" and assume I know who they are and what they're working on, all the way until the very bottom. I just assumed it's some open source libr

Well, that's kind of what I mean. For scripts in a python project, you can freely use whatever packages you need. But for one-off scripts, if you need bs4 or something, you're screwed. Either your script now has external dependenc

How do you handle packages? I want scripts to a be a single file with a shebang, not a repo with a requirements.txt that I need to run in a venv. To me, this is the biggest blocker to using Python for any non-trivial scripting (which is pre

Take a look at AdGuard Home. It's functionally similar to pihole but overall better made / easier to use (IMO). I only use the first AdGuard DNS Filter and have only need to allow one domain to unbreak a site, but I also combine i

This is the part that I find insane. What if the bridge had collapsed, and no one had bothered to post a picture of it to social media?

https://thegithubshop.com/collections/shop-all/products/1541... That's actually really cool. I wonder if it's an addressable LED strip you could hack or just white LEDs behind tinted plastic.

Native mobile or native desktop? The former is relatively easy, at least for Android. React and Angular both have very good Material UI libraries. But making a PWA feel like a native desktop app is hard. There's a reason most Electro

Those are the pros, but what are the cons? Surely there are limitations for it to be called "lite", else they'd have just added support for all that to the regular version.

1. What's the purpose of the "random padding"? Remember that an LLM is incapable of thinking logically, so it'll often do things that seem purposeful but aren't. 2. Consider using an actual checksum like CRC-32 rath

People don't usually expose self-hosted services directly to the internet, even if they have a login page. You use a reverse proxy, that way they can be HTTPS, share port 443, and use subdomains (Caddy makes this really easy). And then

It's such a shame that desktop apps are dying while the replacement still doesn't manage to feel native and can't even do multithreading properly.

Same here! Not to mention having ebooks on my phone means I can read anywhere, anytime. I read more , not less, lol.

Have you ever tried reading a PDF ebook on a phone? Small font size, doesn't fill the entire screen (phones are taller), margins make it appear even smaller... even if you have good eyesight it's a pain. The whole point of PDF is
