   I built wthrtxt because I wanted a weather page I could scan quickly without news, autoplay video, or layers of widgets. I also wanted the same forecast available from the terminal. Like wttr.in...but I trust the rain potential information

   Thanks! Had pretty much the same thought process as you, so I made this little tool (yesnotice) to do pretty much that. Its not perfect, but I've been using it a lot and its working great for me (mostly to get notified when certain new

   It would be great if you could make a GH issue explaining your use case. I try to reproduce bugs and could possibly find a solution.

    Thanks for the kindness :) I use it the same way actually! I don't use any Apple products so that's the major roadblock for me to develop against iOS...

    This is actually not uncommon at all for anything on the internet. You can see for yourself actually using this command: ``` > traceroute news.ycombinator.com ``` On my computer, most packets take a route that passes through 10+ computer

    Thanks! The usage has only gone up - now in 2023 the croc public relay has been using 20 TB of bandwidth every month :| I like to write software that runs forever, but this will get difficult to run in the future if usage keeps climbing.

    I think the main advantage that I like croc over many utilities is that it can resume file transfers from where it left off. I'm not sure if wormhole has this yet. Of course torrents do this, but I find sharing via torrenting still not

    These issues are pretty recent. I would greatly appreciate sponsorship to address issues faster: https://github.com/sponsors/schollz or just help with PRs.

    > croc's biggest failure is that it doesn't really do NAT hole punching, so you're limited to the speed of the relay. I'd like to test this. Can you give me an example of a program that does do NAT hole punching for f

    Yeah potrace can do the same thing - trace a path of a bitmap. (Imagemagick can too). In my tests (with lots of line drawings) I felt autotrace generally had better results. Wish I kept the side-by-side comparisons to show...

    That's a great idea! I think you're absolutely right - in the video of the plotter I used a pen that has a more flexible nib and pressing it down (especially at an angle) will add more line weight. I'll have to encode the li

    Thanks for the feedback. I get the confusion. If you searched for your town and only see "likely not available" there is likely none available and the "recent" would just be empty. I didn't make "recent" l

    That's too bad! Some cities are definitely more active in the public piano scene.

    Actually these are the best public pianos in my opinion - people often search for public pianos when they are traveling and travelers often enter/exit airports. Also the airport pianos are usually the best maintained.

    I agree it could be part of OSM, but keeping it up-to-date is really tricky. Piano locations are impermanent structures and information can become outdated in just a few weeks. It would take a lot of effort to keep it up-to-date and there a

    Yeah I can see that Brooklyn has a lot that are very dated (2-5 years old). I guess I didn't explain well that some of these pianos "no longer exist" but I find it really useful to still have that information because these lo

    Thanks for the kind comment. Yeah I made this because I would fly a lot and want to play a piano (if no one was around). At the time there were only a few resources that listed possible locations of public pianos and they were always brief
