• Every NPM package potentially compromised

  That's great, thank you! Does it check recursive dependencies, and could you make it work against a package you haven't installed yet, by specifying the package name as an argument, rather than it only looking at what's already installed? If that's possible, it would be really good to then run it against a list of popular packages, like [1] or [2], and report back which packages are the highest priority for... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Syncthing: A continuous file synchronization program

  For iOS, I placed a syncthing folder inside my iCloud directory and it works fairly well. My MacBook, an always-on Pi, and a few other boxes run syncthing for a directory full of Markdown files that I use with Notational Velocity[0] on Mac and 1Writer[1] (highly recommended!) on iOS.

• Innovative Rich Text Editing: Typing Affinity

  Bike is beautiful! I'm tempted. But all my notes are in Notational Velocity (https://notational.net/) at the moment, because the largest source of friction for me is *finding note files*. In Notational Velocity I never have to open a file dialog; file dialogs on Mac OS are still shockingly slow, and even if they were fast it would take too long to find the file I want. My hands never leave the keyboard; I just... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• What do you dislike in the note-taking apps you use and why?

  Has the very simple modeless operation of Notational Velocity: When you open the app, you just start typing, and it incrementally searches the full text of existing notes, and creates a new note if the search text is not found. Source: over 1 year ago
