I'm looking for a way to manage my bookmarks easily on desktop and Android. Anyone have any experience with software like that? It'd be nice to be able to tag or categorize pages, and maybe to keep local mirrors for certain ones. I'm open to self-hosting. Thanks for reading!

replied to:

I've stopped managing bookmarks after del.icio.us died - now i just hit the browser star but they seem to disappear and never visit them again, apart from the most recent. The situation sucks really. I'm also interested in a good solution.

Off to handstand class. I have been known to recommend to everyone within earshot doing challenging and/or silly physical things in a community. Not bucking the trend here.

While learning jj, I realize how Git habituated me into being ok with its unique jargon and prickly command line interface. Unlearning Git is refreshing.

replied to:

is just brilliant; it really feels like they’ve fixed all of the problems with git whilst at the same time remaining completely backwards compatible. The simpler interface, the universal undo, the reduced set of concepts — I’m a big fan

Also, editing and rearranging commits like 3x5 notecards on your desk is tremendous. It makes using an SCM feel more like editing your work than lumbering forward.

How do they get you e-mail address?

replied to:

From my HN profile, or the page I post has a contact, or my github. It’s not that hard.

replied to:

The e-mail is only public if you put it in the about box. Maybe the solution is to remove it from there. But maybe you want to be contacted. In that case, spam would be the price to pay for reachability.

I imagine something terrible has happened (again) and the world is talking about it. I avoid reading general news. Too depressing.

ooh maybe I revive and add this feature but instead of being able to modify everything it would be limited to adding features to the game/world. And it’s the perfect domain, a site that’s been ~~entirely~~ mostly hallucinated.

Oh wow that site is amazing lol not seen it before

Built a couple lambdas today to send account verification and onboarding drip emails for folks who sign up for my app but don’t make it all the way through the onboarding flow. Pretty cool to be able to quickly bang out self-contained infra for this instead of having to pay some SaaS vendor.

I've been on a kick lately of trying to visualize the oscillating clock, and ultimately the effectively arbitrarily complex activity of a computer processor, as modern refinements of the line shaft factory of the 19th century. Of compute as being not much more than profoundly refined "work" delivered by the electrical grid into marvelously complex machines. Does that, as a metaphor at least, feel as important to you as it has to me of late? We spend so much time in a world abstracted.
