thepraon LoaderShip – CSS-Only Loaders

There's the "Network Information API" but so far its a Chrom* only thing https://caniuse.com/netinfo and I can easily see how it might be a privacy concern given that it gives yet another data point to everyone

thepraon WebKit Features in Safari 17.2

The usual JWT Token

thepraon MemoryCache: Augmenting local AI with browser data

As fare as I can see it's just a MacOS image, nothing is happening

thepraon WebKit Features in Safari 17.2

Yep, as a web app developer I can't see what that has to do with privacy, it'll just slightly annoy the user into redoing the login within the new home shortcut(I don't use cookies for Auth)

thepraon An update on Twitch in Korea

45Mb down, 25Mb up, 4G+

thepraon An update on Twitch in Korea

Heck! 30 bucks (dollars?) per month? Here(Italy) I'm paying like 7 Euro

thepraon AMD wants to know if you would like Ryzen AI support for Linux

Edit: sorry, it's Firefox at fault here, got the same glitchy behaviour on other PWAs.

So I'm gonna rephrase it:

Firefox what is this trash?

thepraon AMD wants to know if you would like Ryzen AI support for Linux

Damn you github, I want to login after installing it as pwa with Firefox but it's looping on the input of the login page...

What is this trash from github?

thepraon Scrollbars are becoming a problem

You're right about the scrollbar contrast, even though I've customized the hell out of the scrollbar in my collAnon pwa I made the mistake to make it less contrasting for design appeal reasons alone. I guess that's gonna go in the next release

thepraon Ask HN: Show me your half baked project

https://collanon.app/workouts

I launched it today, it's a workout mini app within my collection of mini apps, it's still a WIP given that for now there's only a nice HIIT Timer and a workout history, all the other sections about exercises, tools and programs will come later.

In practice it's not your usual gym app with a knowledge base already included if stuff to do, here the scope is gonna be the ease of building all of it by yourself and owning/sharing it as you wish.

thepraon Show HN: An app store just for installable web apps

Yep, I listed mine which is offline capable but there's no way to tell people that it does have it other than trying beforehand.

thepraon Show HN: An app store just for installable web apps

Indeed, the good point is not relying on any store to bring able to "install" or use right away, so Android and iPhone users aren't blocked from sharing the same experience.

thepraon Show HN: An app store just for installable web apps

It's quite quick! I listed my web app and got it verified in Leeds than an hour :)

thepraon Ask HN: Gitlab or Gitea for self-hosting Git?

I've been hosting, maintaining and upgrading gitea for more than a year so far meanwhile at work I've been using the company's Gitlab instance.

In general they work fine but Gitlab had many times upgrade issues resulting in downtimes more often than not. And Gitea resources use feels more light in general.

thepraon Ask HN: How does Booking.com guarantee consistency of reservations on scale?

Unfortunately last time I used booking.com to book a flight I didn't get my passport registered on the ticket, and it's quite unclear if the fault is of the airline booking or the aforementioned one :/

thepraon Shelf – open-source asset management software

Category selection and location selection is sketchy at best, it's using those advanced selection lists but at the first tap of the field, the list opens, the keyboard opens and the list closes, only at the second tap I get an open selection list -_-

thepraon Show HN: gpt-engineer – platform for devs to tinker with AI programming tools

can it "scan" scan a local codebase, understand all the syntaxes used and their differences and being asked to write code for that particular part of the project?

thepraon Interest in SQL with IndexedDB and Web Storage in Web Browsers?

I might be interested given that I seek ways to access IndexedDB from Blazor

thepraon MLC-LLM: GPT/Llama on consumer-class GPUs and phones

...how to remove that "As an AI language model, I do not..." limit or self-censorship?

thepraon Microsoft to change PrintScreen button to open the Snipping Tool in Windows 11

I guess they took inspiration from the competing Greenshot, where indeed it does remap that button to start the sniping tool right away. I've been enjoying this for many years already :D

thepraon PWAs in App Stores

I've been rocking PWA and Blazor in the early days, collanon.app is my gem, but no money yet other than a donation from a Canadian ┐ ( ´ ー｀ ) ┌

thepraon They will lose your data

Yep, I hate not having control over the data that I upload or generate through an app, which is one of the reasons that my running apps at collAnon have download and import buttons

thepraon Modern SPAs without bundlers, CDNs, or Node.js

could you make a code example?

thepraon Ask HN: Those making $0/month or less on side projects – Show and tell

As in the last thread about projects that didn't make into top HN https://collanon.com remains a free web app for your private discussions and confrontations. ¯ \ _ ( ツ ) _ / ¯

thepraon Ask HN: What have you created that deserves a second chance on HN?

I tried with my web app https://collanon.com and didn't get much traction on HN(maybe bad timing).

It's on its 3rd year of development/improvement and it's about making and sharing easily private discussions and confrontations(1vs1) with temporary/total anonymity in mind without relying on any big tech service or cloud providers to keep the data more private.

I'm on a path to a big upgrade soon too.
