Seeing auth succeed but push fail was an exercise in hair pulling.


I've found Gitea to be pretty rock solid, at least for a small team.


Would even recommend Forgejo (the same project Codeberg also uses as the base for their service)


I did this recently with my unsorted bookmarks! It was the first time I used parallel API calls. Ten gpt-4-nano threads classifying batches of ten bookmarks ripped through 10,000 bookmarks in a few minutes.


Ironically, running your username works for me, but not my own. Maybe you can view it now? https://hn-wrapped.kadoa.com/gavinray?share


Pretty funny, I like it! Though the data seems biased towards more recent posts/comments and also submissions.


Very neat, this kind of classification & sentiment analysis with flavour text is a use case where LLMs really shine.

For whatever reason, I'm getting an error in the Server Components render when trying my username. My first thought was that it might be due to having no submissions, just comments — but other users with no submissions appear to work just fine.



Anybody wanting more should check out “The Flute and Flute Playing” (1871) by Theobald Boehm - an autodidact polymath who employed his talents in metalworking and physics to iteratively perfect the metal cylinder bored flute.

It contains detailed explanations of his development process, including a complete schema for determining optimal tonehole positions - developed after he first created a flute in which he could move them!

It helped me to more deeply appreciate the engineering marvel that is the modern western concert ‘Boehm’ flute. It’s an exceptionally pure instrument.


I'll always have a soft spot for this earlier implementation which at lower resolutions has a kind of cyberpunk netrunner aesthetic, and at higher resolutions an almost ethereal ghostlike quality: https://haxiomic.github.io/projects/webgl-fluid-and-particle...


hey there's even a comment from 2020 where the creator of that project talks about this project, neat! I always wondered if they were connected in some way or independent applications of the same underlying premise: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24065857


I love playing with it at UltraHigh quality and 1 solver iterations. It reminds me of gradually incorporating one ingredient into another when cooking: like incorporating flour into eggs when making pasta.


0.5 arcminutes really puts this into perspective — for reference the orion nebula spans about 1 degree


for further reference 0.5 arcminutes ≈ 0.01 degrees


for further reference this is about half the width of your finger at arms length held up against the sky


You’re thinking of degrees.

Half an arcminute is 1/120th of a degree and is roughly the diameter of Jupiter in the night sky. There are about half a billion patches of night sky that are half an arcminute on each side.

It’s also about the size of a softball from a kilometer away.


Oops, you are right, which makes this even more impressive!


Hubris aside, it was established as early as 2008 that Facebook collects data on non-users for so called 'shadow profiles.'

Zuckerberg himself indirectly confirmed this: https://web.archive.org/web/20211006190710/https://www.getre...


"Gradus ad Parnassum" by Johann Joseph Fux, right?

Read it a couple of years ago after learning basic music theory, as I was still struggling to write consonant voices.

I probably wasn't the first person to think that contrapunctual rules might lend themselves to algorithmic implementation - so it's very cool to see you've done just that in your project!
