inezk··on Show HN: Sigabrt.dev – cronjob monitor with an SSH TUI
You are missing the biggest value offering here - service such as the one linked here (or healthchecks io that I personally use) will let you know that signal didn't arrive even when other things on your end failed (e.g. cron having a hard time sending failure email due to incorrect smtp credentials). I use those kind of healthchecks literally for everything, especially for backups - they saved my ass many times over.
inezk··on How's Linear so fast? A technical breakdown
The goal is - and I think they have achieved it - is that you don't have to think about it. They handle sync, and they do it reliably.
inezk··on A GitHub Issue Title Compromised 4k Developer Machines
You mean.. like a newspaper?
inezk··on Ask HN: How to get started with robotics as a hobbyist?
> I was very interested in athletic robots, so I left my job in software to build a quadruped and make it backflip

This is the best thing I've read today!

inezk··on GitHub removes bunch of data from their webhook payloads
It's hilarious how little info they provide about what's that they are removing.
inezk··on What does connecting with someone mean?
Great insights. In US people do ask one another "how are you?", perhaps in a shallow way - but I think it's still an opener that can lead to more meaningful conversation. In Poland for instance, where I'm from, people don't ask "how are you?" one another - which slightly limits that opportunity. At the same time Europe as a whole has so much better work life balance which allows for many more outside work friends and family connections and spending time together.
inezk··on Show HN: Minimal, self-hosted exercise tracker
Very cool! I like the simplicity of it. Right now I'm working on something similar for myself (and some of my family), but maybe other people find it potentially interesting too? Essentially I'm building a webapp that each time I use it will arrange random ~5-7 lower back exercises from a list of ~25 for a total of 10 minutes session. Then it will guide me (only time and name of exercise) through the workout session (counting down the exercise time, and pause/break time). The problem I'm solving is to not have to think too much about what exercise I should/want to do next, make it a little bit more fun/interesting (due to randomness aspect) and free my hands from operating a timer to time myself (also less likely to drift to social media or youtube videos). Thoguhts?
inezk··on Running PHP fast at the edge with WebAssembly
I don't think edge in this case mean browser. I think edge in this case is more similar to a CDN node.
inezk··on The Polish Election Bazaar
I'm Polish (well, not spending much time in Poland lately), but just FYI this practice (not the election silence - that is true) is not something me or family ever heard about. Maybe it exists, but it's not popular.
inezk··on Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
This is beautiful, I wonder if there is a way to make it avaliable to more people. Not even as a business - I just imagine it would help a lot of families in similar situations.
inezk··on Show HN: Kinde – auth, feature flags and billing (Q3) in one integration
I don't mean it in a bad way but I scrolled through the website, watched the video, and still don't really know what is the product/service/offering and when would I need it.
inezk··on Ups and downs of a side project
I appreciate author sharing the learnings, that being said given product is not very successful I question the value of such learnings.
inezk··on Amazon rescinding the offer while I am on the notice period
It's Amazon, it's not a startup.
inezk··on Merry Christmas, HN
I so agree. I also love how it's content vs form focused.
inezk··on Mcmaster.com is the best e-commerce site I've ever used
Totally agree - yet they still don't have countersunk M7 that I needed so badly (apparently I managed to get it from Volvo)
inezk··on Leon: Open-source, self-hosted personal assistant
"Leon uses AI concepts, which is cool." - somehow this really discouraged me from looking deeper into it.
inezk··on DMV approves Cruise and Waymo for commercial service in parts of Bay Area
"within designated parts of San Francisco" - as for Cruise, which parts of San Francisco those are?
inezk··on Listen to radio stations from around the world
It's probably just because of usage of http instead of https.
inezk··on Listen to radio stations from around the world
This is cool! I've lately been rediscovering my love for radio, and this helps a lot.
inezk··on Decoding the Peloton
Amazing work, love this kind of reverse engineering
inezk··on Thanks to Venmo, We Now All Know How Cheap Our Friends Are
This is one of the worst article I read in a long time - also I couldn't disagree with it more. I like eating salads and my friends like eating stakes - Venmo and Square Cash makes it so easy for us to spend time together and split money in a sensible way (how splitting it in a half would be sensible in this case?). Saying that this make friendship transactional is just bullshit - it makes them honest. And people thinking they they are charged for friendship because they have to pay for their own meal need to rethink it.
inezk··on Ask HN: Alternatives to Gmail that are new, cool, etc?
so like 6 billion domains?
inezk··on Atlassian Design
It's so disappointing to see it not working on mobile - https://atlaskit.atlassian.com
