Last week of 2023, I built an HN TLDR site that summarizes Hacker News articles into 3-5 sentences — just something to try my hands on OpenAI APIs.

I want to build more features and add support for any RSS feeds too.

Nothing to make money out of, but something for my personal use.

I think having a single place to record all your transactions would be a good feature. And if they have a way to send receipts to customers via SMS/whatsapp, it would be a great.

It's a poorly written post. I think mostly written for SEO and traffic.

One thing that I didn't notice others here didn't comment about:

In the section where they write about xrange vs range in python 2 vs 3, they reference a piece of code supposedly written for py3 which isn't there.

xrange was fast in python 2 because it allows you to evaluate lazily, which is what range does in python 3.

So whatever benefits you got out of xrange is there in range.

We few people know it could be bypassed. But how will the millions of other users who know nothing about VPNs? Also what if Airtel blocks all these popular VPNs?

Also its not about if we can bypass it or not. It is about what is morally/ethically right and what is wrong.

And if I am travelling from New Delhi to London, how would I know/sync what time the sun rises/sets?

> You wouldn't be the author of that blog by any chance?

The author of that blog, "Kenneth Gonsalves" is dead for almost a year.

If you have compiled it to HTML, wouldn't it be more efficient to serve it up as static HTML files via nginx (or any web server). Why store the HTML in redis and serve off it via an application?

Can you do a blog post instead? Would help lot of developers like me who are looking into Go as the next programming language to learn.

I use gandi for all my domains. Even use their mailbox for 1 domain and haven't had a problem. I would recommend only gandi to anyone.

We tried using it in the previous startup I worked with.

It was pretty hard to make everyone use it and soon we ended up installing redmine for issue tracking.

I didn't even get the email from evernote regarding the password reset.

Luckily, I had the evernote app sign me out and asking me to login again (which didn't work with my old password). I had to login through the website and it prompted me to change my password (no link on why) and then it worked with the new password.

I searched through my email trying to see if any email got eaten by the spam folder, but none, "No emails".
