Lovely. I had so much fun exploring and writing about this topic. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely! Thanks for sharing. I had so much fun learning about ZIP and writing the blog post.

Yes, the motivation to explore was something similar. I was curious if downloading ZIP files could be made more efficient over the web.

In this blog, I wrote about the architecture of a ZIP file and how we can leverage HTTP range requests to download files without decompressing the archive, in-browser.

Show HN: CopyMagic – The smartest clipboard manager for macOS

https://copymagic.app

It’s been one month since I launched CopyMagic, a smarter clipboard manager for macOS that makes sure you never lose anything you copy.Instead of digging through endless items, you can type things like “URL from Slack”, “flight information”, or “crypto rate” and it instantly finds what you meant.It’s all completely offline and privacy-first (we don’t even track analytics).

Hello, I am the developer of CopyMagic! Thank you so much for your confidence in my product.

Starred. This is going to be useful in building resilient backends, thanks for sharing.
Re:Show HN: A raw HTTP request parser for Python on Thursday October 10, 2024 @03:32PM (#41802592)
Thank you. I was tinkering with sockets programming while working on a side-project in Python and needed to parse through a raw HTTP request to do some manipulation before sending it (to be precise - a proxy that reads requests, makes changes and forwards it to the destination)

It's AI in your CLI to help you with shell commands every time you get stuck.
Re:Take notes via WhatsApp. on Thursday January 26, 2023 @06:40AM (#34530499)
That's where this idea came from. The problem with the group was that I had to manually take actions later on after writing myself in that group.

We made the bot to initiate actions as well based on the messages there are.

If it's a PDF/image/doc - it gets uploaded to your Google Drive. If it's a text message - it gets added to Notion. It it's a text message that says "schedule" - a calendar event is scheduled.

More such routines will be added soon.

I am building this WhatsApp bot that you can use to add notes to Notion (and other apps), files to Google Drive just by sending it to the bot.

I made it with the help of a friend cause I needed something like this for myself. Would you use it? Do you think it helps your workflow?

Being able to schedule meetings, drop files to cloud, check to-dos via WhatsApp text sounds convenient to me.
