I hear good things about spreadsheet functionality in org-mode.

>The last of my primary reasons for using FF over chrome were killed with Quantum.

Which?

The repo has the scripts that are used to compile the binaries. It's not even a fork, it just downloads the code directly from the official repo.

I didn't know Portugal was big on censorship. What kinds of sites are blocked?

Adding to the list of "If you want hosted Git": Keybase.io.

They provide encrypted git hosting for free: https://keybase.io/blog/encrypted-git-for-everyone

No issues, pull requests, and social features though.

Great documentation!

I particularly like that you mentioned "NAT Traversal" as one of the benefits of hidden services.

I think that's an overlooked feature that would in many cases be enough of a reason for one to use them, even without caring for the added privacy.

Great find! Here's the source link: https://about.gitlab.com/strategy/#sequence-

Gitlab also took VC money and have an exit as their only option. Doubt they'll get as far as GitHub did though, and the option to just grow slowly into a solid independent business is off the table. Probably an acquihire with small return to investors.

One point that is often lost on the discussions of fake video/"deepfake" is that this development won't only make it easier to fool people into believing something that's made up, but it might also make people more distrustful of things which are actually true.

When it's been spread out enough that anything can be doctored to an indistinguishable extent, everything becomes deniable by those being caught, and the skepticism explosion is going to raise the bar for investigative journalism / actual evidence to standards high enough that few will have the resources to produce them.

_Can_ Elon Musk be booted if the board wanted to? I'd bet he still has a ton of control.

I think the Brave Browser and associated Basic Attention Token (BAT) are a step in the right direction. It's hard to escape ad revenue if you want to avoid paywalls, but Brave at least gives users privacy, control, and revenue share.

I found this after coming up with my own #spokenDSL for binary at https://github.com/ttobbec/rubble (pt-BR).

I found mental math became a lot easier after practicing it a little bit.

Might be a good way to teach kids binary. Tell them nothing about bases, conversions, or anything, just give them decimal numbers with a different name, wait for the phonetic patterns to take hold, then show them what's behind it.

Urbit's Hoon also takes the approach of coming up with phonetics for ASCII symbols, which I find great. https://github.com/cgyarvin/urbit/blob/master/doc/book/3-syn...

I'd love such an arrangement myself too, especially remotely. I have friends who tutor on Thinkful or some other company so they can choose to do fewer hours a week and dedicate themselves to family/projects, but that pays much less than working as an engineer. It works for them because they live in low cost-of-living countries.

Hi guys! Small world =)

How does Next.js' static export feature compare to using Gatsby.js?

It also pains me to have to sift through all the meta noise. But some examples do stand out. patio11 is one.

I recently found about Tyler Tringas, who has open revenue numbers, is profitable, and specifically focused on making the business as automated as possible to have time. He was going to write and sell a "metabook", but decided against it precisely for reasons of credibility. He's publishing it for free at https://tylertringas.com/micro-saas-ebook/.

Another one is Jason Kester, who wrote about how he did it for free on one simple blog post here: http://www.expatsoftware.com/Articles/guy-on-the-beach-with-...

It's good to see there are some actual cases, and it sounds at least more doable than the crazy startup lottery that is, ironically, more socially acceptable. (Passive stuff is for lazy people.)

I use RSS with Blogtrottr to get updates by email. But I prefer it when the blog has its own newsletter. Saves me the trip to Blogtrottr and receiving their ads on each email.

So how do I sync two instances with nothing but a USB stick? What commands do I use on both ends?

Surprised this got no traction. I'm interested in seeing what HN thinks about this too, especially with regards to blogging on Codementor Community vs Medium vs your own space. Are there reposts or other threads that have comments on the launch?

Curious: are you living off of smsinbox? What do you estimate is the average weekly amount of hours you spend on it?

Thanks for the pointers! I think (2) is the hardest, but I'll try some of the things Amy Hoy publicly shared about her Sales Safari process (can't afford 30x500 yet).
