   This is what terrifies me about Google, specifically losing access to all accounts that I signed up for using my Gmail. I started transitioning to a custom domain that I can redirect to any email, but I just realized I bought that domain us

   I enjoy being able to grep the 200,000 books I have downloaded as part of the Pile that was on HN a while back. It allowed me to do things like "show me all the paragraphs where 'Edmund Burke' and 'patriotism' appea

   I think Signal should do something similar to this, just at a smaller scale. I've messed around making a game using this concept... An infinite 2D open world where people's chat messages appear over their heads. If they're sp

    I have never struggled with mental health until the past couple months when I started having chronic GI trouble. I had to stop going into work and two CT scans, an ER visit, and a colonoscopy later it doesn't seem like I'm any clo

    I use GitHub with my Obsidian vault for versioning and cross-device synchronization. I wish there was a mobile app as well, but GitJournal has been sufficient so far.

    I love the-eye.eu, and am excited for this dataset not for machine learning purposes, but for easy display on a low resolution Raspberry Pi OLED. I've looked for many books in .txt file formats before with little luck.

    I love finding more BIFL products, and used to go to the subreddit for inspiration. However, it became mostly one person saying that X product lasted them a really long time with little corroboration. Hopefully this takes off and can get so
