I used to be a subscriber and would like to support the project, but the noticeable response latency is a problem for me (Spain). I’ve tried both my desktop PC and iPhone, and the result is the same unfortunately.

Thank you for that prompt, I can already think of a few developers I want to give thanks for changing my life.

We had a problem where we need to index and make searchable a hundred of thousands of government pdf files, some are as old as 15 years ago.

Tried a bunch libraries and settled with Tika. Although we were a PHP/Node shop, nothing could be compared to the ease of using Tika for this exact purpose.

This has been an issue with Mosh for a long time, finally one solution has appeared.

Hi, For people who want to do this but don't want to code anything, you can use https://www.engagespark.com/twilio-alternative/

* In this case you can do an SMS Poll asking who would like to come.

* If you want to do this a bit more personal, you could use an IVR Poll instead, so they'd hear your voice.

* You can even go further and build some logic, if they replied yes, then you ask them what food choice do they want, no need for interacting with google spreadsheet.

* You can view all this with some pretty graphs and download the spreadsheet with all the information that happened on the engagement.

* Or if you want fancier stuff, do the above, pass the results to Zapier, and manipulate them with any other apps linked into Zapier.

Oh no, what would happen to https://github.com/nvbn/thefuck?

Go one step farther, is Github going to self censor?

The first half of the article is a genuine problem. There's just so much distraction going on right now, I wonder how people are being productive.

I know HN sure isn't helping me be productive from minute to minute! I'm checking it compulsively for new posts. Hopefully its teaching me enough to compensate...

When I'm busy at work I turn on "noprocrast" mode. I still open hn all the time but the "get back to work!" message helps me close it quicker.

This is so true, BSD's in general are very underrated.

I don't think people under rate it. The issue is that BSD is so much server focused in users and development and it lags behind Linux Desktop (which is still a small percentage). There is just a high amount of programs that are not available in BSD.

I use to have me personal server as BSD and used FreeNAS quite a bit. Due to lack of certain "cool" applications I wanted to run on my machine I just switched to BSD.

From my perspective, the BSDs are focused on what they should be: making a good version of Unix. I feel that the Linux developers are spending too much effort on the "desktop", which is why we have now have GNU/SystemD.

That's true. I hate the great divide amongst Linux & BSDs cause otherwise we could have the best of both worlds.

There is not a "high amount" of programs unavailable in BSD.

There are specialized programs that need some Linux-specific syscalls which won't run on it. That's about it.
