Hacker News Search

My site is sciencemadness.org. I started it when I was still an undergraduate some 20 years ago now (!). Content on it has been linked from here a bunch of times [1] -- most often, regarding my scan of the book <i>Ignition! An Informal History of Liquid Rocket Propellants</i> by John D. Clark: https://library.sciencemadness.org/library/books/ignition.pdf But I'd suggest checking out the whole library, not just that one book: https://library.sciencemadness.org/library/ Also the forum: https://www.sciencemadness.org/whisper/ It used to be very simple to register but I got tired of the endless cat-and-mouse games with web link spammers. Now you'll need to email to get an account, and I deal with the registration requests at irregular intervals. But there's no gatekeeping. You don't need any particular qualifications or background to join. I mostly participate here on HN under another account name that I don't want linked to this one. My real life identity is trivially found from my web site and I don't want <i>that</i> linked to everything else I say on HN. [1] https://hn.algolia.com/?q=sciencemadness.

Plain Org

Https://xenodium.com All posts are written to a giant org file. https://github.com/xenodium/xenodium.github.io/blob/master/index.org This wasn’t by design but more accidental. The file started as my notes, and eventually exported it to html as a single page (using built-in export). That page grew too large over time, so I wrote some custom elisp code to split into multiple html pages served by GitHub pages: https://github.com/xenodium/xenodium.github.io The custom elisp code I wrote isn’t particularly elegant, pretty, nor reusable but does the job for me. In short, it’s a frankenstenian hack of sorts I’ll likely regret at some point, but at the moment fairly maintenance-free. I also got these pages for apps I built, just plain 'ol html: https://plainorg.com https://flathabits.com.

Bulma

Hm, thanks for letting me know. Looks like I can reproduce the issue on desktop using Firefox's Responsive Design Mode set to a smaller iPhone. The mobile layout could definitely use some love. Since the last rework of the site, I've used bulma¹ for styling and really liked it. Might be a good excuse for a weekend project. :) ¹: https://bulma.io/.

Forestry.io

Https://adambennett.dev/ Mostly Android + Kotlin with a recent foray into interviewing, and I'd like to write about leadership/culture a bit more. I've gotten out of the habit of writing recently due to burnout but I'm starting to feel that motivation again. It's a Hugo static site ontop of Firebase Hosting, and I just commit to GitHub and Actions builds and deploys the site for me. I recently started using http://forestry.io/ which is a nice GUI over the top for content management.

SqueakJS

Oh sorry, HN usability played with our hearts :D The message was meant to this other dev, quite cool mind map: https://wiki.nikitavoloboev.xyz And I'm impressed by what you have done there. I even played a bit of DOOM heh. Your project reminded me a little bit of https://squeak.js.org in the sense of having a full OS like thing in the browser. Congrats for the achievement!
