Is it me or does Netishyn (the city where the guy was caught, and presumably lived) seem eerily similar to the term "netizen"? ...Or, am I thinking/seeing things on a Friday that are not really there/linked? :-)

I agree fully with you! Unfortunately, law enforcement should not need to exist also...And yet, the incentives and behaviors of so many a$$holes in the world requires at least some mechanism to curb the bad stuff. (Not saying this not-bot

I built a pretty simple command line application (glorified python script) years ago that sends messages into a specified matrix room, and intended for use as a basic server notification system. Only recently posted to github (because a fri

It’s probably a good idea to disable Edge...That is, stop using Edge (or Chorme), and start using an alternative browser...like Firefox. /s More seriously, I wish there was a web browser built in a sort of cameleon fashion: * layer 1 -

You can def. link directly to a card (I've been doing that for years)...but to a list, not sure about that one.

There are several websites out there which hope to list many ActivityPub servers (and clients) in many (programming) languages, and other implemtnation aspects...Like, here's an oldie but goodie website: https://fediverse.pa

In addition to what @rascul noted (WithKnown.com), there are some other services listed here (and maybe even more beyond what is listed there): https://indieweb.org/Getting_Started#IndieWeb_Services

I'm curious....are the shortcomings that you encounter the types where elements of your scripts need to differe between Mac, windows, and Linux? I ask because i really don't like powershell...but am crafting more and more cli apps

If there isn't a tool currently...then give it time, and eventually there will be tools similar to what you dewscribed. I'd guess they'll be called something like prompt editors (like text editors, etc.). ...Or, maybe they&#

You hit the nail on the head there! My current role is as an architect...however my peers and i are really forced to be nothing more than bullshit slidemakers (senior IT at my current employer values the opinions of one of those big consult

Yeah i had a side hustle for several years, and found lots of the work quite rewarding (especially in the intellectual fulfillment sense). But if there is anywhere that i suck in life it's leading sales. I'm pretty good as a secon

Thanks for making this softeware! I was not sure exactly why i would need to use this software, or context, etc. But, after viewing the github repo and then coming back here to HN re-reading your comment above...it clicked a bit more. May

I hated using Lotus Notes for emailing and calendering! But, when someone showed me the application develoopment aspects, it was then i came to the conclusion that it was an amazing app-building platform, and a mediocre email/calendar

Yep, what you stated is exactly my experience as well! What i have done the last few years (if/when people ask me what my job is), i simply them that I'm a *technologist*. Roughly half of the people begin asking what does that me

I read more as: "Don't donate to groups....unless, they know what they're really doing..." ...which as a former employee of a non-profit, could not agree more.

I enjoyed reading this, but was left with the same feeling that i had at the end of the 1983 film WarGames, namely: "...the only winning move is not to play..." I acknowledge this post is not exactly saying that...but it still fee

If you run your own instance of an activityPub server - e.g. mastodon, gotosocial, pixelfed, etc. - for, let's say, yourself or your family, then you will have vastly more capabilities to moderate content (way easier and more reliable

by mxuribe 4y ago
Running your own single-user instance comes the closest to that. (Also, it needs not be exactly the Mastodon tech stack. Can be other tech stacks like pleroma, GoToSocial, PixelFed, etc.)

I had never heard of markwhen until today. It captures a tiny fraction of ideas that i had...but, you've had same/similar thoughts and gone and built the thing! Its amazingly impressive! Kudos to you for making this!

Thanks for this recommendation! I had actually already added htmx to my "need to research/review" list of bookmarks... since it kept coming up in HN comments so often. Now, i guess i can move it up a tad in priority.

I agree; I like simpler approaches first. Then - if needs grow - one can grow/evolve to more complxity, but only if even needed. Also, I used to use emails as notifications for many, many years...but lately have been using my own littl
