In a few places, Microsoft sneaks in clever references to Clippy in the Azure LLM documentation[0]. Nice to see they're still letting a bit of humor shine through here and there.
Reminds me of https://vim-adventures.com/. Playing that game made me become very proficient with VIM. I can recommend it to anyone who wants to get started with it.
That‘s simply not correct. Instead of founding as a GmbH you can start with an UG. A UG is legally virtually the same thing as a GmbH and you only need 1€ Stammkapital.
Once you start generating money with it, you can transform it to a GmbH. The only thing you achieve by that is displaying that your business is at least backed by 25k€.
In addition to that, you could also just start your business as a GbR. Funding this can be done completely for free (without needing any lawyers, paying fees etc.). As a GbR you‘re personally liable as a founder but when starting small that usually isn‘t a problem.
Founding in Germany kind of sucks, but for many different reasons.
I've been using and working on my custom hacker news frontend for a few years now. As the name suggests, it only has minor "improvements" compared to the official website. It has a dark theme, (IMO) better layout and typography and it's a SPA with server side rendering.
Currently you cannot login, vote and post comments.
It's the framework I'm most familiar with. As it was intended to be a personal project I just chose it because it was the easiest way for me to build it.
After trying many HTML2PDF libraries we're doing the same thing and are quite happy with this approach. I've tried using "professional" solutions like iText pdfHTML[0]. They all seem to be based on flyingsaucer[1] which only supports HTML4 and CSS2, and will fail rendering pages that use modern CSS let alone JavaScript.
Yeap, I used this, but I had to setup a lambda, then get chrome in it, then use puppeteer. If this was something that you could programatically trigger from JS then you could have a button "Export to PDF" and just make a downloadable blob, because the rendering is pretty good and with css @media for print you can really make it tight.
Slightly Better Hacker News (SBHN). It's an alternative HN web-client that I built and use as my default HN version nowadays. It features some layout improvements over the original and has a dark theme.
It is not yet feature complete (missing login, routing is broken in some rare cases) but I plan on improving it on my next "lazy" weekend and get a nice domain for it. I'm also going to publish the source code on GitHub.
