   Happy to go into a bit more detail on this. As I said in my first post, I shouldn't have accepted 40 to start with. I had received an offer for 55 at another company that fell through when they had a hiring freeze, so I was getting a b

   Here's my experience working as a SWE in Australia for about 4.5yrs, mostly in Brisbane and recently in Melbourne. I don't know what is "normal" for SV/SFBA so I'll just list everything I can think of. The firs

   Off-topic, I'm sorry but I just can't help it, the aggressive modal that pops up instantly when you view Medium enough as a non-signed in user drives me away instantly. I can't imagine continuing to post content on a platform

   I'll get the ball rolling. This is my personal blog: https://lusmo.re I've overhauled the style recently inspired a lot by the simplicity of Butterick's Practical Typography[0]. It's all hand-written HTML and

   I currently have Fastmail with a catch-all so I can give out a unique address to every company, but before that I was looking for services like this. This looks really interesting, congratulations on launching! Could you add a few screensho

   I love this movement towards simpler, lighter websites. I also took huge inspiration from Practical Typography when styling my blog[0], which is all hand-written HTML/CSS with the absolute bare minimum of JS (and the site works fine wi

    Good idea, thanks for the suggestion. I have thought about whipping up a version of ghp in a couple of different languages as a comparison - I originally wrote it in C#.

    Oh you're right, I typed that address by hand having found the page through the Google app on my phone, so didn't notice I wasn't using HTTPS. There's an issue on their GitHub that's been unanswered since November l

    This is awesome. You might want to add "Printed" to the front of your title, because I've seen quite a few ASCII art projects before and almost skipped over this, but the fact that it's printed is quite novel to me at le

    Sorry, to be clear the tool is designed to make it easier to locally test your static HTML GitHub Pages repos, where things like a `/about` link will not resolve in the context of your filesystem and likely also won't know to chec

    Awesome, thanks for noting this. I've raised an issue to address this and investigate other response header differences: https://github.com/CurtisLusmore/ghp/issues/4

    Thanks for sharing that, I'll give it a look. I think that http.ServeFile handles content type automatically, because when I test this locally I'm seeing Content-Type in the response headers.

    That's a fair point. Previous iterations of my GitHub Pages used Jekyll and I used that at the time to test it, but I recently switched to plain-old-HTML and honestly it didn't occur to me that Jekyll would still work for testing

    That's a great question. Although I don't encourage anybody to expose this to any network they don't trust, it was a concern. I was previously passing the incoming path directly to ServeFile[1] which handles this, although I

    Thanks for your feedback, and for taking a look. > The source code doesn’t do anything related with GitHub pages though. I'm not sure what your point is here exactly. Although the source code makes no mention of GitHub Pages, and yo

    Hey HN, I made this for myself, because my blog is served as static HTML via GitHub Pages and it's hard to test locally because all of my absolute paths break (links, imgs, scripts, css, etc.). I tried using the Python module http.serv

    I'm reminded of Linus Torvald's interview at Ted [1] where he talks about programming "taste", and compares the following two code snippets: remove_list_entry(entry) { prev = NULL; walk = head; w

    Not really, because the site probably stores the data and the site could be breached, or they could sell (access to) the data. Edit: In the worst-case, as per the GP's point.

    I think you need to charge a lot more than $10/mo for unlimited usage, especially for a monitoring tool. Edit: Just saw you have an enterprise tier at $12/user/mo.

    The thing that annoys me the most about this are websites that render a blank white page, but when you check the page source you realise the content is right there, but hidden by default and then unhidden through JavaScript. It boggles the

    I have this problem too. I used to bookmark, but nothing really ever triggered me to go back through and read them. So I started leaving tabs open on my phone to read on the bus, but eventually started closing them when I realised they&#x27

    This made me think that it'd be interesting to see a variant on Space Invaders where you play as the invaders - you would write a little program that takes the state of the world and determines the next move for each invader and play a

    If that still doesn't do it, change your password to random gibberish that you don't save in a password manager, forcing you to do a password reset to login. If that still doesn't work, set the recovery email to an account yo

    This is a little vague on the technicals, but it sounds like you would be downloading and installing the full VPN service as if you had obtained it directly from ProtonVPN? i.e. this isn't a browser plugin? It'd be interesting if
