It's indeed super fast, but the output is complete BS hallucination. Not sure what's the value of this.

There may be a typo in the url, it does not work

There is KDEConnect, which has apps for all major platforms (iOS, android, macOS, Windows and of course Linux) and some more. I even used between Apple devices when AirDrop did not work for some reason.

This is excellent, I was looking for an open source replacement for Google Maps on the web for a while.

And on the top of it, it is open source! I am heading to github and see if I can contribute.

Thanks, I found it in the 'Content Downloaders' menu!

It estimates the download time to 6 hours, and it's not because of the size but most likely their server works slowly. And in the meanwhile it does not let you play, well tomorrow then :)

I downloaded this and it looks cool and comprehensive, but for me the card artwork is missing.

Maybe some server is hugged by HN? Or something needs to be set?

Mexico city too has rubber wheels on some lines

I wonder how difficult would it be to brute force the private key for an RSA 760 bit public key from 1998. Does anyone know?

If anyone is interested the whole series can be watched on Youtube for free. Altogether it is not that great, nevertheless I find the meta story about the pilot fascinating (a show about conspiracy theories "predicts" the 9/11 attack).

There is a project called Swarm that does exactly this.

(Disclosure: I am working on the project)

I found this to be a much better article than the original post. It also explains how the elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman works.

Thanks!

After I stopped using FB I missed a mobile news reader app that works without having to install a server or create an account.

So with some friends we created an app called Feeds https://github.com/felfele/feeds

It does everything on the phone and there is no ads or tracking whatsoever. You can also mute content with keywords.

It is open-source and currently in open beta for iOS and Android.

Shameless plug: I am currently working on a free, open-source, mobile RSS reader which doesn't require a server or any kind of registration, because everything happens and stays on the device.

Currently it's in beta testing, let me know if you find it interesting. https://github.com/felfele/feeds

For anyone more deeply interested in this topic I recommend to read this blog post from Archagon. It describes the different alternatives (OT, CmRDT, CvRDT, diff sync) for writing a collaborative editor. And unlike academic papers it is written in a format how a programmer does research and thinks about a problem in real life, so it's very natural to follow, even if it's long and complex.

You basically make your home dir a git repo and by default ignore everything inside it. When you want to store a dotfile in that repo, you have to force add it (`git add -f`) and it will be tracked.

You can learn more about how git ignores things here: https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore

You can use the `git check-ignore` command to check if a certain directory is ignored. I used it in my zsh config to suppress the status of ignored directories in my prompt.

It's called resource curse: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_curse

Prezi.com | Budapest, San Francisco | Full-time | Onsite, Relocation assistance to Budapest

Prezi is a zooming presentation software that uses an open canvas instead of traditional slides, is available on desktop, browsers, iOS and Android. With offices in San Francisco and Budapest, we work together with 250 employees from 24 different countries.

We have lots of open positions ranging from backend, mobile, frontend, c++, security etc. https://prezi.com/jobs/departments/engineering

We are a devops engineering organization, working in cross-functional teams with POs, designers, UX researchers. We have already moved from the monolith to microservices, and we have some pretty unique challenges like infinite zooming with 60fps on all platforms.

Some benefits I'd highlight above the usual stuff: unlimited holidays, trips between San Francisco and Budapest, volunteering and charity events, regular hackathons, we organise conferences, happy hours, knowledge sharing program with fellow companies

Modern type systems made type inference and gradual typing possible and those are making a huge difference nowadays.

With type inference you can write programs almost as easily and productively as in dynamic languages. With gradual typing you can basically write the same code as in a dynamic language and still get type safety (e.g. TypeScript).

Swift, Go, (Rust, Scala, C# etc. but even C++) has type inference today. Maybe dynamic languages will get type annotations and gradual typing in the future and then basically we can have the best of both worlds.

There is an app called Waygo that's already capable of handling Chinese, so I guess it's not too far.

Can you use this library without having to use its IO capabilities?

My biggest issue with OpenSSL is that it also tries to do IO, but does it in a not too well-performing and non cross-platform way.

Marketing is mostly in San Francisco, but I think if you are a US citizen or have a visa we'll be willing to help relocate you.

It's nice, too bad it's not open source.

It's interesting to see that when IE was the most popular browser it was the most problematic. Now it's Chrome.

If you open a file with Elm Reactor, and edit it and save it then Elm Reactor will get notified by that and recompile the code in the browser. See the first video in the blog post.
