https://rpilocator.com is great for finding Pi's closer to MSRP. You just have to waif for them to be in stock.

Ask HN: What is the most compelling reason young people should learn to program?
What is the most compelling reason young people (13-18) should learn to program—especially if they are not interested in pursuing a career in the tech industry? Why should students use their computers for more than browsing the web and using word processors?

There is a page titled "Where do I start?" on Brandon Sanderson's website: https://www.brandonsanderson.com/where-do-i-start/

This is like playing https://worldle.teuteuf.fr/ without seeing the country shape (since I do not know much about world trade). I love it – especially because it teaches me something new!

I just wanted to shout out Cooking For Engineers even though it’s only moderately related. Its format for recipes is so quick to read. I would love to see CookLang integrate this style of recipe viewing.

Ask HN: How do you manage backups?
How do people on HN handle backups?Personally, I use MacOS's Time Machine, since it is super polished and makes restoring files and browsing what the filesystem previously looked like a breeze. It "just works" and is the only backup solution I have used to restore lost files (who knows how well a backup solution works unless you actually test it). I have even been able to set up a Samba server...

I apologize for submitting a duplicate. I wrongly assumed that I would not be allowed to submit a link if it had not garnered attention within the last year or so (now I know 10 months is not "the last year or so") by an automated system. I did not realize that this was a responsibility of the moderator and I am sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused.

I've been using #F6F60 for a while now, since it makes the top bar the same color as the background. It is only a problem when you are on a page like /newest where the text in the navigation bar at the top of the current page turns white ("new" in this case) to indicate that you are not on the homepage. The lack of contrast makes it almost impossible to read.

It appears to be the Zero-Clause BSD, but for some reason, it says Microsoft holds the copyright. Could original author must have used something with the same license to write Wordle? If it isn't a free license and I am misinterpreting the code, I would be happy to take my version down.
