That's a nice project!

I searched a few comments I agreed using the "Ask HN: What are some iconic comments on HN?" thread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40719253) and I'm pleased to see some green comments here and there :)

I also made 2 QoL [fire|grease]monkey extensions for hn:

- display favicons of sites next to links: https://gist.github.com/corentinbettiol/6d9dc3a032c17ebcd94d...

- display karma next to usernames: https://gist.github.com/corentinbettiol/289503b4033a788df91f...

Didn't knew that sudo had a website with a... somewhat interesting logo: https://www.sudo.ws/

Wow, is it related to the "make me a sandwich" XKCD?

https://xkcd.com/149/

You do realize the answer is right there: https://www.sudo.ws/about/logo/

(and the old logo) ;)

I missed that, thanks!

That's a nice project, I'm interested to take a look at the source code if you publish it!

Published a first version of my code, feel free to try out and contribute: https://github.com/philippdubach/rss-swipr

Trying to rebuild my website (php mvc built a decade ago) using Django. I want to be able to update any page content, upload and display images, have multiple blog instances. I do a lot of django-cms by day, but it's too much for a small personal website, so I started to create a (tiny, foss) CMS based on Django, django-prose-editor for the content, and some new apps (for now, Page & Blog).

The site isn't even online, but for now I'm starting to think about the next steps (seo-related things to implement, generalize app functions to handle not only blog but other (hypothetical) apps as well, improve code quality and repo readability, separate apps from the website so anyone can add them to their django website if they want to). It's a lot of work for something no one will ever use, but I must at least try to make it clean and discoverable :)

I, too, am selfhosting some projects on an old computer. And the fact that you can "hear internet" (with the fans going on) is really cool (unless you're trying to sleep while being scrapped).

There is in fact an effort to make a desktop application!

https://penpot.app/ you don't have to download it at all :)

Thanks for the information, but I was talking about the advantage of local usability.

Almost certainly not. If you need this kind of tool, you'll either self-host it, use the hosted version or use Figma. There are no comparable offline-only alternatives. What users are they using exactly?

Oh I suscribed to a bot on the fediverse that posts screenshots from this live!

+1 - Weasyprint is an excellent tool to make pdf from html content, and we're using it at work (with django) to export various documents.

Yeah the AI solve a problem created by the company that made the AI because their algorithms are biased to display websites containing content written for them instead of content written for humans :/
