I recently had the need to subscribe to changes to a Github repo and it turns out it provides a feed for them. For rust master branch, for example, subscribe to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/commits/master.atom.

Whatsapp works even if you choose not to install Google Services. You can download the apk directly from https://www.whatsapp.com/download.

"about" didn't work for me but "help" did.

Isn't it possible to write memory-safe code in modern C++?

Who says they don't?

Edit: never mind, just noticed it.

Is this "US timezones" or "US only"?

Installing LineageOS does not imply losing access to Google services and the Play Store.

Not in GOG, for some reason.

You should interview her!

QtWebKit is not recommended but it is still available if you want it: https://qutebrowser.org/doc/help/settings.html#backend. There is a ticket to remove it completely which is now targeted for V4 (https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/4039) but, in reality, you could still use it.

I like Drew's take on this https://drewdevault.com/2019/01/23/Why-I-use-old-hardware.ht...

It should be possible to build a mastodon server that provides a gemini interface.

I would say they are useful, specially against a relational database, when you have a ever-growing or dynamic amount of different entity types that are all related between each other. With a knowledge graph you only don't need to create new tables every time you define new entity types, you also can give semantic meaning to the relationships between them.

Offtopic: I'm seeing a trend of titles that, as a non native English speaker, always confuse me and take me a good couple of seconds to finally understand. This is one of them. It's like they use a comma where I would expect an "and" to be. I wish I had more examples to show, but I have seen a lot here in HN. Is this some new editorial style or was this always used?

Good stuff. I wonder if there's a way to "detect" ASCII art automatically by crawling open source repositories.

Oh I'm definitely copying this idea!

It's not clear from the website's home page what is the difference with the original version hosted at sourceforge. This page explains it: https://robocode-dev.github.io/tank-royale/articles/tank-roy...

Good tip. My device doesn't have any official build newer than 17.1 so I may need to start building my own images.

My motivation has usually been to add features/fixes that *I* would consider useful for my particular use cases, and most times it's for software I use in my personal time or personal projects.

Expecting to get paid for your first contributions to open source sounds, to me, like the wrong motivation.

I have the exact same one. Here's the film that works with it https://us.polaroid.com/collections/film-for-polaroid-600-ca....

Write a CHIP-8 emulator. I followed this [1] language-agnostic guide. It covers all the details and oddities without actually giving you the code, so you still need to make the effort to get the result.

> I don't really know, but since there are no manufacturers that built good TrackPoints I think its either hard or there really is no demand (sadly more likely).

Those are good points. I'm thinking there could be patents involved too.

> I don't need a touchpad though. Actually, one of the best laptops I've owned was one without a touchpad [1].

That's true! I don't really use the touchpad on my X230, even though it's there.

What would be the requirement for someone to build a trackpoint for the Framework laptop? Would they need to design a whole new keyboard plus a touchpad with the three buttons?

Interesting. I don't know of any similar option in Python's json module, which is the one that I mostly use, but good to know this exists.

Parsing a CSV can be done in a line-per-line basis, while a an array of arrays in JSON is not valid until you reach the end.

How would any existing JSON parser handle 75GB of data in a single array of arrays?

Got it, thanks for the thorough response.

I guess that, regardless of this, there is still an ownership difference between the multiple levels in your example, and the ownership difference between a TLD and a SLD. In your example, nsw.gov.au controls the TLD and they could register dept2.nsw.gov.au without asking anyone else, they could even register a.b.c.d.dept2.nsw.gov.au, but they can't register nsw2.gov.au. I assume that's why the PSL is still useful for some use cases, but I agree this one is definitely not one.

I'm having trouble understanding your example. Who is the correct owner of dev.app.org.dept.nsw.gov.au and how does Let's Encrypt get it without the use of such list?

Interesting. Do you have that work available anywhere?
