How to study philosophy as an amateur[0] by Existential Comics is a good introductory guide.

Some recommendations:

The latest Firefox mobile update added a dropdown to the address bar for switching search engines and searching through history/bookmarks/tabs easily.

Kibology?

The article explains three ways to get new comments in a thread. One way is to go to Algolia (Search provider for HN) and type in the thread id in a specific format. This bookmarklet will open that page directly with all the options pre-selected instead of having to open a new tab, copy and type in the id in the search box, etc.

Here's a bookmarklet to take you directly to the algolia page from a thread:

  javascript: (() => {
    const id = window.location.href.match(/\d+$/g)[0];
    window.open(`https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&query=story:${id}&sort=byDate&type=comment`)
  })();

One Vimium feature that I use a lot is the "Vomnibar". As a heavy bookmarks user, it lets me easily search for any existing duplicates before bookmarking a page by just pressing 'b'. If I start the search with "/<Space>", it will show the full path to the bookmark folder too!

There are tons of these. I use this one: https://cheat.sh/

Lichess PWA works better than the official app on mobile: https://lichess.org

https://wttr.in

Works in the terminal as well:

  curl wttr.in

Yes, they should be fine as long as you are not reusing them. If you want more customization, I wrote a generator with more options like a custom separator and leetspeak: https://pwizard.netlify.app

Something similar (but simpler) I made for my personal use: https://rsapkf.org/tz

Among many tricks and tips, I recommend mapping `|` and `-` to split panes:

  bind-key | split-window -h
  bind-key - split-window -v

There is also a great playlist by Welch Labs called "Imaginary Number are Real" that I really like: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiaHhY2iBX9g6KIvZ_703G3KJ...

It's called Baader-Meinhof phenomenon: https://www.healthline.com/health/baader-meinhof-phenomenon

This is from Rootless Root: The Unix Koans of Master Foo - http://www.catb.org/esr/writings/unix-koans/shell-tools.html

If anyone is interested in learning about conlangs, jan Misali has an interesting playlist[0] with reviews on various contructed languages including Toki Pona.

RIP The Amazing Randi. Reading and watching Martin Gardner and James Randi has taught me so much. Gardner was already dead when I first heard of him and I've looked upto Randi ever since. From magic to religion and pseudoscience, I have always enjoyed their views. You will be missed.

PiP is such a useful feature. Even though I use a window manager, I like the fact that I can just take whatever video is playing out from my current tab and move it over to my programming workspace and follow a tutorial or something. No need to create a new window. When I'm done, I can put it right back to the original tab on the original workspace with a single click. Especially useful with floating mode enabled.

I see you are using regular formatting for code/shell commands on your comments. Not that that's a problem but just a note you can use one of HN's comments formatting tips[0] for this.

Text after a blank line that is indented by two or more spaces is reproduced verbatim. (This is intended for code.)

I use this all the time. I find this option pretty neat:

  curl wttr.in/Moon

I use Termux[0] on my phone with curl installed. Pretty handy.

Also, check out rate.sx[1] from the same author:

  curl rate.sx

Looks cool! I have been using Docusaurus[0] for this same exact use case for a while and although the primary use case is for documentation, the experience of writing notes is great too. You can write your notes in either MDX or Markdown. Search can be added using Algolia DocSearch[1] and deployment to GitHub Pages or Netlify or similar static site hosting platforms is a breeze. The only thing it's lacking is tags which I'm sure can be added with a little bit of work.

Notes: https://rsapkf.github.io/notes/

I am learning Rust at the moment. I used to use that repo to try new things out. For example, to play with GitHub's API(the github-gitlab-stars.md file was created using a bunch of Python scripts, requests library), or learning branching and pipelines(Currently I am using Travis CI to build mdbook from another branch), etc. Initially, when I didn't know about GitBook or Static Site Generators, I made a Django App with search functionality and stuff out of those links.
