gatesphere··on Concord, our GPL outliner
Leo is the last outliner you'll ever need. http://leoeditor.com/
gatesphere··on Ask HN: Is anyone still using TiddlyWiki?
Leo (http://leoeditor.com/) + SpiderOak are what I use. TiddlyWiki was a fun toy, but I could never really grok its true power.

I know typography is a very touchy issue, but I'd suggest a different font for the terminal... the 1 (one) and l (ell) are almost identical. Looks like typing 'he1p'.

I'd suggest DejaVu Sans Mono - the only monospaced font I've ever seen that has such visible distinctions between 1li, 00o, [{(, )}], and %#.

gatesphere··on Google Drive was down
Their android app functions, but it's more of a client to access your files rather than automatically sync them. I might have missed something in the options, but as far as I know it's just a file browser.

The only one I can really recommend is SpiderOak, due to their zero-knowledge policy on what users upload. Everything is encrypted with your password, and if you lose that, you're SOL. They have no way of seeing what you've uploaded, so they're just providing you some drive space. It's a wonderful service altogether.

If you would like to help me out and use my referral link (so you and I get some extra free GBs), it's https://spideroak.com/download/referral/049cbbf6bc2c2df3b005...

gatesphere··on Ask HN: What's Your Personal Website Stack?
My personal blog stack is toto + heroku (for free!) with karakuri. I host downloads and code snippets in a github repo... it works wonders.

For my personal portfolio site, I use a custom written static site generator in python (called ptah, it's on github), and I host it on a low-powered plug server. I do some dev work on a raspberry pi with python and sqlite.

gatesphere··on As of today, App.net is a freemium service

Thanks!

gatesphere··on FPGA Programming for the Masses
Having worked with Lime hands-on, it is certainly going to make splashes. It's a fabulous idea and deserves much more attention than it's getting.
