Re:Show HN: Places traveled – leaving bread crumbs of your journeys on Tuesday December 31, 2019 @08:39AM (#21920901)
Hello everyone,

I am the author and have this question every year before the New year: How was this year? What new countries did I visit this year?

So I spent a couple of last evenings and developed a set of scripts wrapped with Streamlit to fetch your data from Foursquare and visualize in different ways with Altair.

The source code to run on your own data is on GitHub: https://github.com/lc0/traveled-dataviz

PS: the code was written while being on the road, so it might need more of polishing, but I wanted to post it before the end of the year :)

Enjoy your data and Happy New Year!

Re:Github turns five on Thursday April 11, 2013 @05:03AM (#5530775)
Happy birthday Github! You are rocking opensource.

It's just amazing so easily be able to fix some software, to make some commitments into project you do love!

But, 6 million repositories for 3.5 million users? Really? How many bots do you have? I'm not sure, that general user has 1.7 repository. I thought the number is higher, at least 3 or something. How many repositories do you have with forks?

lots of nice UX improvements, but right now somehow reminds me of Google+
Re:Github publishes public keys on Monday January 07, 2013 @05:35PM (#5023692)
I know, they are public, but I don't want to share information about a number of my keys, what exactly keys I do use to push my source code to github and other related things.

Re:XSS + "Save your password" = pwned on Thursday November 29, 2012 @08:10AM (#4847467)
one of the main reasons, that someone could find XSS on your website. Afterwards, he needs just to open an iframe and you may get your password in a plan-text.

without any redirects and other hijackings
