When Google Play Music died I made https://inter.tube as a replacement music storage locker. It supports almost all of the Subsonic protocol but I haven't had the time to make a web interface for things like the playlist ed

It was temporarily private in a bit of a reorganization, should be public now.

I think it's a mistake, probably reorganizing things at the moment. You can find a slightly outdated fork here: https://github.com/guregu/trealla (note that this isn't a "hard fork" -- just a WIP pu

I plan on writing a blog post soon to explain it better. The quick summary is that it uses WASI to execute a C program not entirely unlike oldschool CGI, but now it's inside of a WebAssembly runtime instead of an OS process. It uses co

Oh hey, this is mine. Thanks to triska for submitting it, and for his Power of Prolog lecture videos. I got started learning Prolog with them this year. This package uses the novel (at least, novel to me) method of embedding a small C progr

Imagine that we didn't have a fancy dynamic system and we were still using files for web pages like the good old days. In that scenario, what would happen if someone accessed the non-existent `/api/v1/employees/100`

Probably closer to 1999 but my first foray into web programming was Neopets. You could upload some HTML for your virtual pet and they'd host it for you. Spent ages making fancy animated text gifs from random tutorials only to realize t

Sorry, just saw this now. Mostly for fun! But I have some slightly crazy ambitions. Prolog lets you easily write complex queries, so it works quite well sitting on top of some in-memory data. I think that you could use Prolog's unifica

I think modern C++ could be perfectly viable as well. Maybe https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-wasi would be a good starting point? I'm not too knowledgeable on the subject. Exciting times though, I think WASM

I've been writing Go professionally for about 10 years now. I don't really buy your arguments against Go. Error handling is optional only if you explicitly ignore error results, and you can have the linter yell at you for that. Th

Japanese has two syllabaries, hiragana and katakana. They represent the same sets of sounds. I think this is very similar to uppercase and lowercase. Of course, the conventions around their usage are different. If I write a sentence in ALL

`--long x` is potentially ambiguous. `x` could be referring to a file if `--long` doesn't take any options, so parsing it correctly depends on this knowledge. The equals sign removes this ambiguity.

I had a similar problem that I solved with goquery and otto. You can use goquery to traverse the DOM and otto to execute the script fragment. Then just grab the data from otto's VM. Your scraping being slow and using Chrome might be a

I know this is a joke, but this is an actual thing in linguistics called reduplication. For example, hito (人) in Japanese means person, and hitobito (人人) means people, more or less. Japanese isn't the best example since they don't

I like using the “serverless monolith” architecture. You use a catch-all API gateway hooked up to a single lambda. You write it the same as any standard HTTP server and let an adapter handle the lambda bits[1]. During development you run it

You're right, I should have replied elsewhere. By the way, if anyone knows what this _is_ called I would be interested to know. As far as I can see it's basically feature detection with no other way of detecting it besides the UA.
