Re:France reaches 94.9% fiber coverage in 2026 on Wednesday August 26, 2026 @11:52AM (#49451265)
We can all thanks Free who pushed massively fiber to no longer be dependent on Orange's ADSL copper network

And also the fact that they have crazy low prices which forced the 3 other ISPs to stay competitive

Re:What's in a PowerPoint File? on Wednesday August 19, 2026 @11:56AM (#49363268)
all files are either text, binary blobs or archives (zip), no exception

I personally knew about this when I needed to extract all images from a Word document in 2015, I had the idea to rename the extension to .zip and wow a conveniently placed media folder !

since then I renamed countless file extensions to zip, just to test. it worked nearly every single time

Re:Ask HN: What are your favorite blogs not about AI? on Monday July 20, 2026 @07:44AM (#48977410)
Well I do have a blog of my own [1], although I haven't posted a new article for a while, with 2 in preparation for way too long lol. There's also a Telegram section[2] which just mirrors the posts I make there, much more informal, and this one also haven't been updated in a while.

> How do you easily get to the first commit in a repo on GitHub?

You can use the syntax github.com/user/repo/commits/?after=last_commit_hash+number_of_commits-2 (-1 for the latest and -1 for the last)

ex : https://github.com/malisper/pgrust/commits/?after=3646a73515...

is this finally Le Gros Chaton that we were promised ?

Re:Show HN: Better Hub – we tried to improve GitHub on Wednesday February 25, 2026 @05:00PM (#47158592)
while it takes time to get used to the new UI, and having everything in a different place, I see how it can improve productivity.

it looks slick, and being able to import our own VS Code themes is so cool !

I do feel like it's more catered towards teams than solo contributors, with large focus on tasks assigned to/created by you. very cool nonetheless
