It‘s "remove". A common word, but many words are common and not on the list. Lesswrong also lists "prüf" (check), another common word.

Seek is annoying, because it throws up some kind of „please don‘t disturb nature“ dialog box every time you start it to take a photo. I hve seen that warning hundreds of times, why can‘t i disable it after a few confirmations?

I‘ve moved to the main iNaturalist app, and it does everything Seek does, but better and it’s generally also faster.

Your wife’s Python version is quite impressive. It wouldn’t have occurred to me to do the simple thing and just do some string-replacement targeted at a narrow use-case instead of using a complicated templating engine.

> just do some string-replacement targeted at a narrow use-case instead of using a complicated templating engine.

A neat little in-between "string replacements" and "flown blown templating" is doing something like what hiccup introduced, basically using built-in data structures as the template. Hiccup looks something like this:

    (h/html [:span {:class "foo"} "bar"])
And you get both the power of templates, something easier than "templating engine" and with the extra benefit of being able to use your normal programming language functions to build the "templates".

I also implemented something similar myself (called niccup) that also does the whole "data to html" shebang but with Nix and only built-in Nix types. So for my own website/blog, I basically do things like this:

    nav = [ "nav"
      [ "h2" "Posts" ]
      [ "ul" (map (p: [ "li" [ "a" { href = "${p.slug}.html"; } p.title ] ]) posts) ]
    ]
And it's all "native" Nix, but "compiles" to HTML at build-time, great for static websites :)

Thank you. That was, in fact, the inspiration behind writing my own in CL.


Back when I used it the mobile app on iOS was broken, but they fixed it real quick. That was encouraging.

Other than that, I mostly stopped using it because it forces you to regularly rotate all certificates, and for my personal purposes it was too much of a hassle.

I still like the project a lot and wish it would be more prominent. Nowadays everyone immediately seems to recommend Tailscale.



Great suggestion, will try it out!

Unfortunately, Latest supports much fewer apps - maybe those that self-update?


Can also be used as a frontend to FreshRSS.

> Bradley Kühn's

I saw that spelling for the first time last week, I think.

Did he change his name? Has he always been Kühn, but went with Kuhn, because Umlaute are hard for Americans?

Set 75313 has a building technique that every fan would have deemed illegal until then, because it cannot be completely taken apart again.
