sha-3··on French musician Kavinsky found dead
His Nightcall performance during the 2024 Paris Olympics closing ceremony got me into Synthwave. Really sad to see him go :(
sha-3··on Lunar Flyby
NASA migrated thousands(!) of their sites to WordPress back in 2023. I think it had to do with user-friendliness of the Gutenberg editor.

22yo final-year CS student. Available to join full-time immediately.

I have been fiddling with computers since I was a kid. While my current role is in a non-technical domain, I spend my free time building full-stack apps and experimenting with Linux.

I'm a quick learner who loves diving into new tech stacks and meeting people who are passionate about what they build. I am looking to pivot into a technical role where I can solve real problems.

sha-3··on Show HN: I made a faster, mobile-friendly interface for Wiktionary
Great catch! I've figured out the problem. My API actually returns[0] the IPA for both UK and US accents. The problem was it was under the tags "Received-Pronunciation" and "General-American" instead of the usual "En-uk" and "En-us".

I will deploy a fix soon. Thank you!

EDIT: I've deployed a fix. This still won't cover all the edge-cases but it's much better than before.

sha-3··on A comprehensive guide to setting up NextDNS
Hey, thank you for the feedback. You're right, blocking NRDs is impractical for anyone in the tech space. But I wrote this article for the general audience, who encounters NRDs very rarely. And when they do, it is likely to be malicious. (I don't have solid evidence, though).

About my domain being blocked by this feature, I guess I'll have to wait it out.

sha-3··on Bitwarden raises $100M
Or SyncThing. This setup works and more people aren't considering it. The UI is great and the desktop app is not Electron based.
sha-3··on A fully open-source and end-to-end encrypted note taking alternative to Evernote
I haven't yet found any privacy focused note-taking app that doesn't use Electron. It's a shame.
