I thought I would just briefly pop into this thread to say that if I, as a passenger, were to learn that the flight* I was unexpectedly diverting across the bay, I just know I'd somehow embarrass myself from getting all hyphy about my "bonus" trip to Oaktown. Raising my daughter there through the grade school years conjures up some warm memories. Love that town.

But I'm not just here reppin' for Oakland – apparently, there's a lot of dysfunction at the FAA that I had no idea about. Glad I clicked.

*(well, maybe not a 12+ hr one)


Reasonably sure the passengers all had to stay on the plane


European here; what’s so special about Oakland? :-)


And I just discovered another one today: Harmonic.

https://github.com/SimonHalvdansson/Harmonic-HN

I'm still searching for "just right". And while I know that posting comments is an experimental feature in Glider, I was pretty miffed today when I lost a somewhat lengthy reply that I had spent the previous thirty minutes drafting.

Nevertheless, I know better than to blame anyone but myself for the loss. I should have been copying my progress to a safer location the entire time, and the source is right there, waiting for my patch. As always, the joys of free software abound.


Harmonic is my vehicle for HN going on three years now. Highly recommend.


Like, why? How much maintenance could it possibly be for them, versus some segment of their users with limited/expensive connectivity who possibly depend on Gmail daily losing maybe the only usable means they have of accessing it.

Lame.


> Like, why?

Presumably the plain HTML version requires considerably different back end services. I imagine that is the driver here.


Hey, this looks promising. I think I might try it out. I'm using mako, which itself works well enough that I rarely think about it, so I might as well poke it with a stick and muck around with an alternative option becuz whyyyy not?

Thanks for posting, I'll return with some feedback should I get around to testing it out soon enough.


It seems there may be some confusion. This project is an RSS/Atom feed notifier; it is not a notification server. It can be used with any notification server implementing the FreeDesktop Notifications Specification such as Mako, not act as an alternative. Please share your thoughts if you try it out!


I've got a painstakingly crafted neovim config that approximately works how I want it to, most of the time, and I'm happy with it. But it's taken a while, a lot of nights inevitably spent mucking with plugins and LSP and gluing it all together instead of working on more rewarding things.

I'd be lying if I said I'd never thrown something at a wall in frustration due to vim acting in some bizarre, inexplicable way and not knowing why, although that definitely happens less nowadays with nvim.

I hadn't heard of lazyvim until the other day and I doubted I'd really need it, but now that I know it's something new from folke, I'm gonna have to give it a shot. Always quality stuff from him -- dude is a machine, when does he sleep?
