elias1233··on Ghostty 1.4
Make a fork and Claude can probably one-shot it. Mitchell will not accept a vibe coded PR though, but that is fine if it is for personal use.

I added Tmux control mode (a pretty extensive feature) https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki/Control-Mode to Ghostty: https://github.com/eliasfloreteng/ghostty-tmux and I use that version every day

elias1233··on Doomscrolling ourselves to death
I would consider myself doomscrolling HN sometimes...
elias1233··on Reverse engineering the storage format for an undocumented database
I love this new trend of reverse engineering, amplified by AI. Been doing numerous projects like this myself.
elias1233··on What happens if an entire class of workers loses faith in their careers
Almost misread as ”outage porn” which would check out here on HN with all the recent outage posts
elias1233··on Open Source Low Tech
It would be interesting to see if an air conditioner or refrigerator can be made in this manner
elias1233··on Free SQL→ER diagram tool, runs in the browser, nothing uploaded
The only thing is that it zooms in on safari mobile when pressing a text field, but that problem is unanimous
elias1233··on Ask HN: What are tools you have made for yourself since the advent of AI?
A gym app for logging workouts and exercises. Plenty of apps exist but I wanted a specific UI/UX that made logging fast while I’m at the gym.
elias1233··on Time to talk about my writerdeck
Very interesting! But how do you display images?
elias1233··on Project Gutenberg – keeps getting better
I thought this was for the Wordpress Gutenberg Editor for a second
elias1233··on Claude Code Routines
Many of the new features in claude code have soon been implemented in other harnesses, for example plugins/skills. After all it is just a prompt.
elias1233··on I run multiple $10K MRR companies on a $20/month tech stack
With the Oracle Cloud Free Tier you can do this for a whopping $0/month. They give you a 4 core ARM CPU and 24 GB RAM for free, plus 200 GB storage.
elias1233··on I use Excalidraw to manage my diagrams for my blog
Whimsical is a whiteboard/diagram app that I think looks pretty nice, not too far from how yours looks
elias1233··on List animals until failure
I created a similar game but where you can enter any category, for example programming languages, car brands or whatever. Of course uses LLMs https://gissallt.eliasf.se/
elias1233··on Microsoft forced me to switch to Linux
You could say they broke the window(s)
elias1233··on The Overcomplexity of the Shadcn Radio Button
These comments don’t seem to have that much love for shadcn, which is unfortunate as I think it promotes good component file structure and reuse. The premise is that you could (and should) change the components yourself, as they are living in your code base and ”owned” by you, which is a radically different approach compared to other ui libraries.
elias1233··on Oh My Zsh adds bloat
I am just glad that it is sub-second start time, where with powershell, it was upwards of multiple seconds
elias1233··on Show HN: DoNotNotify – Log and intelligently block notifications on Android
I recently played around with a similar idea, but with the added feature that notifications would be sent together in a single notification from the app at scheduled times, optionally grouped by app
elias1233··on ULID: Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier
I have always been a bit hesitant to use UUIDs with timestamps as it can be a security issue if the IDs are public. For example getting the age of a user account just from the id. I will say, however, that I have not heard of any major incidents stemming from this.
elias1233··on The lazy Git UI you didn't know you need
The git integration in VS Code has gotten really good lately. It has the commit graph, with cherry picking, worktrees, stashes and a very nicely integrated merge editor and rebasing, along with all the common commands. Also staging individual sections and lines visually, which I use daily
