Hi, I'm Italian too working in Milan, just wondering if you have any suggestions on how to get these kind of offers, i imagine they don't appear on public places like linkedin.

if you don't mind we can talk about it via email.

Re:How to tell a raven from a crow (2012) on Sunday April 14, 2019 @05:30PM (#19661819)
I visited the tower of london yesterday and bought a raven mug, talk about coincidences
Hi, thanks for commenting, the main difference would be that in evernote you have to structure your knowledge manually, by tagging, creating notebooks & co, here i'm proposing something that extracts info from every link/text you send. If you want to create a movie database, in evernote, you would have to manually insert every movie info you want to store and choose a sensible structure on how to store this data, with my idea you would just insert the link and all the extra data would be extracted and indexed allowing you then to search and create views.

Ask HN: Validate my startup idea for a personal knowledge store

Hi, i'm thinking about developing a personal knowledge store, where you can simply send a link, text, images, youtube url ... and it will get indexed with additional metadata extracted from the source. Then it'll allow the user to fuzzy search the store including the metadata.example 1:you send a link to an article:- article's title gets indexed- article's content gets indexed- article's...

Re:Roamer: A Plain-Text File Manager on Wednesday August 30, 2017 @06:32AM (#15131012)
this one has a ton of features https://github.com/FedeDP/ncursesFM well written and commented C code.

full list of features: https://github.com/FedeDP/ncursesFM/wiki/Getting-Started

just to name a few advanced ones:

* Search support: it will search your string in current directory tree. It can search your string inside archives too.

* Basic print support through libcups.

* Extract/compress files/folders through libarchive.

* Powermanagement inhibition while processing a job (eg: while pasting a file) to avoid data loss.

* Internal udisks2 monitor, to poll for new devices. It can automount new connected devices too. Device monitor will list only mountable devices, eg: dvd reader will not be listed until a cd/dvd is inserted.

* Drives/usb sticks/ISO files (un)mount through udisks2.

* Distro package files installation through packagekit.

Re:Show HN: Writing an HTTP server in Prolog on Sunday November 13, 2016 @04:34AM (#12942564)
Awesome, one of the most fun i had at university was building a Uri parser with prolog.

After i discovered that you could define operators i built a combinatorial parser, something akin to https://hackage.haskell.org/package/parsec (of course nowhere as powerful) with similar syntax and do notation. https://gist.github.com/ga2arch/e8904177f722c6560e37

And i didn't have to define backtracking because it is handled by prolog itself.

DEX has a 65K methods number limit, that's probably why they keep all the code inside the least amount of functions, resulting in that monstrosity.

Re:Show HN: My seven minute workout timer evening project on Thursday May 16, 2013 @05:53PM (#5721428)
i don't get the excitement for this 7 minutes workout, can't you just go in the gym for 1 hour 3 times a week and do some squats ?

aside from this the site looks good, simple and to the point, props for it.

Wouldn't it be better to use Extended file attributes ? https://gist.github.com/2695264 (actually my first attempt to a bash script)
could it be because they're using scala ?

if you need help just send me an email =)

Awesome work =)

Re:HNews, an android HN client that tries to not suck on Tuesday April 26, 2011 @04:50PM (#2487152)
https://github.com/ga2arch/HNews :D

that's the source code, it's ugly i know, but it's the best i can do for now :S

Re:HNews, an android HN client that tries to not suck on Tuesday April 26, 2011 @04:42PM (#2487117)
yes, i have tried them all ( i think ) and i haven't found any of them good enough ( at least for me ).

but the "tries to not suck" also stands for "i hope my first app will get positive comments :D"

Re:HNews, an android HN client that tries to not suck on Tuesday April 26, 2011 @04:33PM (#2487071)
1) and 3) are in the TODO :D

i don't understand the 2), in what way the "home" button is different ?

EDIT: now i understand the 2) -.-' yeah, i was thinking about implementing a gesturehandler to handle a swipe and open the link :D

Re:HNews, an android HN client that tries to not suck on Tuesday April 26, 2011 @04:14PM (#2486963)
ok, it's now free
Re:HNews, an android HN client that tries to not suck on Tuesday April 26, 2011 @04:13PM (#2486960)
ok, understood, gonna set it free, and upload it on github. hope the community would get interested in it and give me some advice :D
Re:HNews, an android HN client that tries to not suck on Tuesday April 26, 2011 @03:56PM (#2486899)
