It's frustrating not being able to send email for my hobby projects even if I follow all the rules and have the correct headers. I enjoyed reading jeremyevan's post on self hosting email, but it's only for receive and not sen

It changed the cost/benefits for papercuts. Instead of thinking, that's annoying, but not annoying enough to fix, I can spend a few minutes running things specific to my configuration. Fixing bluetooth, fingerprint readers were re

Lot of nostalgia today. This brings me back to compiling Camino, a gecko based browser, on my iBook G4.

I used to have a floppy and a mini-cd boot version of these. The mini-cd looks like a credit card and fit into a standard size cd drive. Reading the history of the project is a bit of a bummer, but still love the project ethos.

Correct and performant way to calculate historical value of a portfolio. I want a pure function, but taking a date as input is insufficient because users can edit holdings, and securities can split. Weighing the tradeoffs of doing this calc

I like reading to my kids and try to read to them in English and Mandarin. My Chinese is conversational, but I have a hard time finding books for them because I’m not good at writing. Something like this with language learning tools would b

Like the layout tiles you have for the photo thumbnails. Will dig through and learn some css. Have struggled with different size content to create a compact masonry layout.

Living in hongkong for a few months, and absolutely love exploring the different neighborhoods. I’d love something like this or walkscore but for local guides to contribute.

Radio is so much fun to learn. It’s liberating to learn for curiosity and joy rather than commercialization. The community is welcoming, and while not directly translatable for most paid work, it does teach general problem solving skills.

From a PWA, I'd prefer a push notification, but you'd get a different answer from each person you ask.

Looks good! Appreciate that it’s a pwa instead of an app because it’d be something I use rarely. My issue isnt with the app, it’s that I’d have to remember to upload a receipt and also to find it in this app if I needed it again.

Ya, no need comments or updates to it either. But thought it was an interesting piece of web development that's come up in every web framework and server, but has not been pushed into the browser. Would be interesting as a js polyfill

The guide is concise and well written. I like how it builds in the same sequence I blogged about: HTML, CSS, JS, and introduces each in a small way with links for further study. I like how it starts with a static site, but I think the end o
