fimdomeio — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 14:17:15 +0000

As someone who is ok, sometimes even great, with being extended periods of time alone, I would say just look for opportunities to be in places with other people. Just tell yourself, why not go do X and if you don't find a good reason just go. Even if it feels a bit like a burden just go. If then you find its not interesting or not comfortable you can always turn around an go home. Great interactions with other people are not planed. They just happen randomly when you least expect, but you certantly must leave your home. Also consistency is important if you find contexts you're comfortable with start hanging out regularly... Time is a very important ingredient for building any sort or relation with another human.

I would suggest making the screenshot with the font at different sizes. They first thing I want is to have an approximation of how it will look at small sizes.

You don't have to prevent root access. You just have to inform user of the risks, void warranties if you want but let users do whatever they want with the hardware that they own.

This sounds so weird. Is there a legal requirement for this? Does this offer any type of real protection? Or is there a code of conduct that that intelligence agencies never hire people with foreign nationalities?

If I remember correct from the hot money podcast https://www.ft.com/content/762e4648-06d7-4abd-8d1e-ccefb74b3... part of the problem for the credit card companies is figuring what are the boundaries of legality. Countries have very different laws. Things like representing homosexuality or age of consent are very different and credit cards feel that it is a risky business because of that.

The great thing about those keyboards was that a lot of people could just turn off text prediction and type text with a single hand without looking at the screen.

This is something that was clearly done just by the love of the craft and congratulations but also feel this could have a huge potential in real world applications.

First crazy idea that came to mind was a multi user desktop environment for an intranet where everyone has their own desktop but could also request access to other desktops entering and leaving them as they are working together through the day.

Show HN: Visualizing web server activity using gource

fimdomeio — Sun, 04 May 2025 08:40:46 +0000

I just want to share this little weekend experiment. I used gource (usually intended to show git repo changes over time) with web server logs.

Video is at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqV8wqy0v7w

It's showing the web server activity for a non profit, requesting and receiving payments, accepting new members, as well as having the two admins making changes around. This is actually surprisingly easy to do with gource by just providing a log file in a pretty simple format instead of providing the git repo. This is a low traffic server but I find it quite interesting as a way to visualize server activity. I wonder why do visualizations like these aren't seen more often.

I think I had mixed results on mac depending on the network I was connected to. I think it has something to do with ipv4 vs ipv6

It really makes you think about those crazy internet folks from back in the day who thought copyright law was too strict and that restricting humanity to knowledge in such a way was holding us all back for the benefit of a tiny few.

On FF: Just to let you know when I enter the site it makes a request to: https://hollow-space.web.app/[object Object]

Also clicking explore does change the url to https://hollow-space.web.app/#0 but makes no visual difference. I have a feeling that quite a bit of the website is not working for me.

This is not mentioned nearly enough. I think it’s rooted in the idea that people must be either great or awful when being both is a very real possibility.

I have only one that I use all the time "rcheckout". Since I use gitlab and it allows the creation of branches with a title like "ISSUE_NR-ISSUE_TITLE" I can do git rcheckout ISSUE_NR and checkout that branch without having to type the full title. I don't know where I got this from originally.

#!/bin/bash git fetch

[ ${#} -ne 1 ] && { echo -e "Please provide one search string" ; exit 1 ; } MATCHES=( $(git branch -a --color=never | sed -E 's|^[* ] (remotes/origin/)?||' | sort -u | grep -E "^((feature|bugfix|release|hotfix)/)?([A-Z]+-[1-9][0-9]*-)?${1}") ) case ${#MATCHES[@]} in ( 0 ) echo "No branches matched '${1}'" ; exit 1 ;; ( 1 ) git checkout "${MATCHES[0]}" ; exit $? ;; esac echo "Ambiguous search '${1}'; returned ${#MATCHES[@]} matches:"

for ITEM in "${MATCHES[@]}" ; do echo -e " ${ITEM}" done exit 1

I trying to create a management software for Integral Coops in Portugal. In a gross oversimplification Integral coops tend to be location based and allow freelancers and small groups to come together and have a infrastructure as if they were a big business while keeping their independence on the work they want to do

I'm trying to make it: a collective project shared between multiple coops, open source, sustainable in the long term.

I've already did some micro projects to the coop I'm a part of, like changing the workflow of expense invoice management from a totally manual process to an 80% automated process so I'm pretty sure I can provide significant benefits to the coops. Right now There's already a prototype andI'm in the process of talking with cooperatives finding financing and making it real.

website is at https://coops.pt (very early stages, in portuguese)
