jayemar··on First Report on the Pre-Scheme Restoration
Hadn't heard of Pre-Scheme so I looked through the site a bit and was surprised to see this:

> Pre-Scheme only supports data-types which are supported natively by C. There are no lists,

A lisp without lists, very interesting project!

W^X? I've never seen that term
jayemar··on Piracy
Could you expand the MA and RYM acronyms for those of us less in the know?
jayemar··on Dikembe Mutombo has died
Seems to be due to brain cancer. He reported having a brain tumor in 2022.

jayemar··on Show HN: I made crowdwave – imagine Twitter/Reddit but every post is a voicemail
Interesting project. It'd be nice if you could trip off the few seconds of silence that is in many of these
jayemar··on Show HN: Free tool to find RSS feeds, even if not linked on the page
My initial use case was for reading content from blogs that had been published before I'd subscribed to their feed. I could visit their site and read their previous posts, but I much prefer the slow drip of an RSS feed. So I created refeed.to to be able to add 1 post per day from the blog to my feed starting from their first post.

Since creating it I also use it to inject a few extra cartoons into my feed (xkcd every day!) and have also had fun with tech flashbacks from trustedreviews.com. So it's just a way to add a little variation to my feed.

jayemar··on Show HN: Free tool to find RSS feeds, even if not linked on the page
Are you opposed to this being used programmatically? I've been working on a site [0] that replays feeds, but the initial step is to first find the feed given a website, and it's not always able to find it. I'd be interested in using your service to try to find the feed when I'm unable to do so.

jayemar··on Show HN: Full Text, Full Archive RSS Feeds for Any Blog
I had a similar idea to replay blogs. It'll pull from WordPress or Internet Archive and give you a replay link to add to your feed reader.

> How could this ever not be the case?

If the value of the house goes down like what happened in 2008.

Which of those listed require engineers to be licensed?
jayemar··on Show HN: I scraped 3.2B TikTok profiles and 9B posts to build this search engine
Maybe this is because I don't use TikTok but I don't know what "Eng. Rate (%)" means, so I'm not sure that something you should appreciate.
jayemar··on Optimizing the Lichess Tablebase Server
I had no idea that was the case, that's incredibly impressive!

Any idea what theme that is? It looks really nice.
jayemar··on Largest nuclear fusion reactor is finally completed
Thanks for this nitpick as I did not know these terms
jayemar··on Show HN: I made shopping clothes online easier
This is a really great idea, but I'd much rather have it as a browser extension than a separate browser.
jayemar··on Developing Inside a Container (2022)
Thanks for the link, this definitely didn't seem to be supported a few years ago when I last checked.
jayemar··on Combine multiple RSS feeds into a single feed, as a service
I'm not sure if this is the functionality you are looking for, but Mastodon has built in RSS feeds per user. You just to add .rss to the user link. So, for example, if you had an account on mastodon.social, thered be an RSS feed of your posts at mastodon.social/@sussmannbaka.rss
jayemar··on Show HN: Refeed.to: Replay blogs and RSS feeds
Unfortunately, I doubt I have anything useful to suggest. I've been a very happy use of Feedly for years, but I don't know how well they do with accessibility or how screen reader-friendly it might be. The best I can offer is a list of web-based readers that I used to test that my links could be read, but if you've been on the hunt for that long then I'd guess you've already looked into all of these, and I don't know how accessible any of them are, either. But just in case it's at all helpful:

  - https://feedly.com
  - https://www.inoreader.com
  - https://www.newsblur.com
  - Feedbro, a Firefox extension
  - https://theoldreader.com (mentioned by you)
  - elfeed (an Emacs package, so not web-based)
jayemar··on Show HN: Refeed.to: Replay blogs and RSS feeds
Okay, I made some changes that should make the format a little more universal. And thank you very much for your patience with this while I work out some kinks. The initial link you had may still work, or you can try this new one:

https://refeed.to/feeds/4rVrwlAG.xml

jayemar··on Show HN: Refeed.to: Replay blogs and RSS feeds
The XML is the feed, so many feed readers will accept the XML link. I tried it in Feedly, elfeed, and NewsBlur and they all accept the XML link, but Inoreader and Feedbro don't see the feed. I'd like to get the working with as many feed readers as possible so I'll look into what I need to change to get it working with those two. Which reader are you currently using?
jayemar··on Show HN: Refeed.to: Replay blogs and RSS feeds
Sorry, what do you mean "the feed says it isn't valid"? Which feed are you trying to use that isn't working?
jayemar··on Ask HN: React, Vue or Angular?
I'd never heard of Nativescript, but have tinkered with React for the React Native functionality, so maybe Nativescript is something I should look into. Is it pretty mature as far as feature parity with React Native?

jayemar··on First RISC-V laptop with Ubuntu preloaded touts AI and 8-core chip
It's nt mentioned in the linked article, but included in the descriptions of the laptop on the company site they show an "8 pin developer interface" that includes I2C, Rx/Tx, 3.3V, and GPIO pins. That looks super cool for hardware hacking!
