Off topic, but I notice FreeDOS still uses email mailing lists. What email mailing list software / platforms are people using these days? Can you get mail delivered if you install an OSS mailing list and stand up your own server (vps o

I liked the idea of this but it won't work for me in practice. A down-side of periods is that you can't use them in an `alias`. Since that is how I configure a lot of these commands the period is probably not an option I can use c

I’m not sure how to figure out if there’s a profitable market I can tap with the thing I want to make. As an example, I created a modified level so that my wife could set tumblers up for full wrap laser engraving. I’ve been trying to figure

I like the idea of using periods for collections of commands. I have a todo list hacked together with shell scripts and I've been thinking about how I might want to stay away from collisions. I think I'll use do.thing style comman

Probably a little later but I had an Amstrad 8086 as a teen. I think it was the first computer I bought with my own money.

So much nostalgia! I miss the used book stores and the shareware racks of floppies (which I think another user mentioned).

Thanks for sharing. The app functions really well and is beautiful. It took me quite a while to figure out what it does and I'm still not 100% sure I understand completely. Is the app profitable? How do people find out about it?

You should consider HTTP Basic Auth. It’s a quick path to “good enough” and you can iterate to something better later. You can read more about why I started using it for my side projects on my blog post below. https://joeldare.co

Reach out if you want to start a conversation. I'm thinking maybe a Slack for people at this stage. My email address is in my profile.

I cut my teeth on POV-Ray. It hasn't been updated in some time but being able to code scenes has a lot of advantages. For product design I use OpenSCAD. Maybe POV-Ray made this style of design popular. A couple weeks ago I decided to u

Did you forget a /s tag? I feel like the penalties are so small for the big companies that they just become small expense lines that need to be passed on to the consumers (airlines in this case).

I was surprised to see that company is still around. I used to love their cameras because of their limitations. Unless I’m mixing them up with a similarly named company.

I never understood the newspaper format. Seems like a paperback would be a better format though I guess that would be a magazine.

I created Ponder, which does something similar. Mine was inspired by the Alpha Smart, so it has 10 “files” and it saves to local storage, so it might not be loss proof, but I use it as a scratch pad and it works quite well. https:/&#x

That’s interesting, I’ve never noticed them used. Do they still do this? I’m aware of the bands but I never noticed the magic moments stuff.

You keep them for the next trip to Disneyland or a Disney Cruise or share them with friends who are doing the same. I only charge mine about four times a year, so I doubt the batteries will last too long, but I’ve been surprised so far. Not

I don't know how productive I'm being but I'm using Llama3 via Ollama on a M1 Mac. It's as good as Copilot and Gemini for most things and I'll use those models if I need a little bit more. I prefer the privacy of th

I don’t know if my understanding is correct but I always thought of a switch in contrast to a network hub. A hub broadcasts incoming packets to all its ports while a switch keeps a table and broadcasts only to the port that MAC is plugged i

This is a lot like I imagine “readme driven development” to look like. I’m curious if the author started with docs first.

I haven’t built amazing things, but I had opportunity for success even though I had children early in life. I’m now 48 and my youngest child moved out last weekend. Being an empty nester will give me even more opportunities. A few tips off

They have tried a bunch of methods like demand based pricing, ID verification, electronic tickets, and lotteries. I suspect these things only work a little and each has its own problem side-effects.

Anecdotal, but I have CPAP and MAD. MAD never worked for me, although I wish it did. I still snore with it and don’t get good sleep. On the flip side, I can no longer sleep without CPAP. I wish it wasn’t so expensive, invasive, and power hu

Self-published author here—I agree with these points and I hate DRM myself. I write DRM free books and I publish them on Amazon for the Kindle. Since they ask authors, I presume they share the DRM status too, although maybe not as prominent
