httgp··on Headphones are collecting too much personal data (2019)
To add to this list, they also let us upgrade firmware.
httgp··on Show HN: SessionForward – Simple user session replays and heatmaps
I love the idea of an instant replay of my own session! Unfortunately, the replay doesn’t work for me on Safari on iOS.
httgp··on Wiki.js
Oh wow, this looks great! I was pleasantly surprised that this is open-source and can be swift-hosted too.
httgp··on Databricks acquires Redash
As someone looking at Redash to replace Metabase at work, what is it lacking? I’m considering moving to Redash mainly to be able to do cross-DB joins.
httgp··on Show HN: Bree is the best Node.js job scheduler (cron and human-friendly syntax)
This looks pretty cool, and I remember Bull from a long time ago.

> since it uses Redis it should not be used as a job queue.

Would you mind expanding on why Redis isn’t a good fit for job queues?

httgp··on Pulsar – an open-source distributed pub-sub messaging platform
There’s also Liftbridge (https://liftbridge.io/) which is built to offer Kafka-like features on top of NATS. It just hit v1.0 and looks super promising.

Full disclaimer: I worked on building a client library for it while it was in its early stages, and from my limited time with it, it was super easy to operate, very light on resource usage and stupid-fast.

httgp··on Show HN: Primo – all-in-one IDE, CMS, component library, static site generator
This looks fantastic. Will the components have to be written in Svelte too? Or would it be possible to bring our own React/Vue components?
httgp··on Ask HN: What weird or hard problems are you trying to solve?
Man we need something like this so much. I sincerely wish you the best.
httgp··on Multiple service providers are blocking DuckDuckGo in India
They block websites and URLs all the time. Often times, there won’t be any justification (or even logic) behind the action — they’ve even blocked gist.github.com once.
httgp··on HonKit: A Fork of GitBook
On a side note, HyperDeck looks great! Is this open-source?
httgp··on Chakra UI – Modular and accessible UI components for React apps
Same, I use Chakra-UI in a production-grade app and I hit a wall with a date and time picker. I had to build my own with Downshift, but getting it to work correctly on all resolutions and with react-hook-forms was tedious and time-consuming.
httgp··on GitHub is experimenting with personal READMEs
I for one am looking forward to this — I’d love to use it as my resume.
httgp··on Show HN: Twingate – A modern solution for remote access
The logo seems very similar to Hashicorp’s Packer.
httgp··on ESLint 7.0
You could be commenting functions too (day JSDoc it TSDoc) but also want to do an eslint-ignore. It looks better then, IMO.
httgp··on Psychic Paper: iOS Sandbox Escape
Jay, I just wanted to say thanks to all the groundbreaking work you’ve done in the jailbreaking scene. Ages ago I had an iPad Touch and I had so much fun jailbreaking it and playing around with Cydia tweaks.
httgp··on Tailwind UI
It’s one-time and you get lifetime updates for the kits you buy.
httgp··on Tailwind UI
Spot on; you get a design system from day 1!
httgp··on Mumbai Police Play a Trick on Honking Drivers
This is direly needed in every part of India. Everyone honks all the time and it can be maddening.
httgp··on Apple Aperture: Senior QA (2004-2005)
That is disappointing, because Serif makes amazing products.
httgp··on Apple Aperture: Senior QA (2004-2005)
Luminar 4 has a DAM and upcoming solutions for migrating your existing <insert product> libraries. I haven’t tried it yet but the reviews look really good.
httgp··on Tool: The right way to email a Git repository – Brian Graham
Wow, TIL.

git continues to surprise with a lot of these lesser-known subcommands and flags.

httgp··on My tech lead is an idiot
> definitely don't say your tech lead is an idiot

I’m curious to know why you recommend this. The poster should perhaps not use those same words, but isn’t it worthwhile giving honest feedback?

httgp··on Apache Pulsar is an open-source distributed pub-sub messaging system
There’s also Liftbridge, which is a Kafka-like pub-sub API built on top of NATS. It is still in development but looks quite promising IMO.
httgp··on Working with GitHub Actions
I don't have a link handy but I remember someone asking for cached builds on Twitter and Nat Friedman responding that they were working on it!

EDIT: Found it! https://twitter.com/natfriedman/status/1164210683979812869 Looks like it is landing on November 13.

httgp··on GitHub Actions now supports CI/CD, free for public repositories
Not true. I'm in India and I got on the beta early on.
httgp··on GitHub Actions now supports CI/CD, free for public repositories
Good point. This could very easily lead to the same problems plaguing the NPM ecosystem — an action repo could be sold to a malicious actor, giving them full access to your entire codebase!
