This is neat, a lot of TIL.

I liked how the images/sounds were lazy loaded as you were ascending.

Good read, thank you!

I notice there is a typo.

Re:dotnet run app.cs on Thursday May 29, 2025 @05:58AM (#44124514)
I couldn't get the shebang to work by running the file directly with .net10 preview 4 sdk image.

It works if I run `dotnet run <file>`.

Update: It is working now, the file was using CRLF instead of LF.

Maybe it is outdated practice but I still use == operator for null or undefined check.

  if (value == null)
This is neat.

I made a similar powershell script recently but reverse search from filename to find the authors by commits.

Like the other comment, this is "I came looking for copper but found gold" moment for me. Thanks!

> You've spent more time comparing API testing tools than most people spend deciding on a house. Postman, Insomnia, Bruno... we get it, you're in a complicated relationship with HTTP requests.

LOL! The roast is just brutal.

I tried Bruno couple days ago, it looks good so far. I am waiting for the environment variable interpolation in body fix [1] to merge before switching over to it.

Re:Show HN: I may have created a new type of puzzle on Sunday September 18, 2022 @05:19AM (#32885860)
Nice puzzle!

It would be nice to show how many steps were taken to solve it.

Re:GitHub Outage on Tuesday September 06, 2022 @07:49AM (#32735793)
I get an error saying the action can't be performed when trying to star a repo.
Re:$9.99/month on Monday July 18, 2022 @02:18AM (#32135306)
I am doing the same. If I just need it for a month, I will always cancel it immediately after subscribing.

With this, I don't need to set a reminder to cancel it or having to pay for another month if I forget to do so.

Called it a day and went to sleep.
Re:Logitech MX Products are incompatible with AirPods on Friday July 01, 2022 @03:23AM (#31943428)
My experience was not good when I used the MX Master 3 with bluetooth. The cursor would sometimes lag which probably due to interference.

I never looked back since switching to the unifying receiver.

Wow thanks! Never knew about pressing the spacebar to toggle to window capture mode.
TIL, I didn't know Cloudflare has one and usually use fast.com

Nice to see the tests are breakdown with more info when hovering or expanding them.
