Why hasn't that worked for Tumblr?

You're absolutely right! I'll put this at the top of the inbox.

In case you missed the reply from Tenecent:

Counterpoint: Windows, Oracle DB, etc. have had free/cheaper alternatives for decades and still thrived.


There's Twitter links on the frontpage of HN right now. Sure, I don't have an account but until _nobody_ interesting has an account I have to use XCancel. The UX for signed out users is deliberately bad.

It's a simple project but it doesn't have the usual AI code style to me. It reads instead like someone getting the hang of networking in C#. Incidentally, this is OP's first public C# repo.

yeah maybe, I guess it's fine, I meant no disrespect for the person learning. I can see some git issues so probably a new dev showcasing.I just don't understand how the hn posts work. Shouldn't there be some upvoting of stuff to be on the main page, or it was just released so it appeared?

For what it's worth the HN algorithm is a pretty complex, so I'm still oversimplifying but ti's more about the rate a story gains score than the points themselves. You can get just 5 votes in the first minute you're up and make the front page, which is more or less what this did.

> So what else qualifies me to do this camera?

I understand the urge to say this to potential blog readers. But you're not actually selling us anything. Who cares if you're qualified or not? You built it and you're telling us what you learned.


I appreciated the context.

Is this effectively IRC? I know it's not literally compatible but the same basic TCP for chat right?

ETA: Not being dismissive! Cool project!


Admittedly I don't know a lot about networking or IRC clients, but in practice I believe so. The idea was to implement the simplest possible way for 2 people to communicate via TCP.

I recently moved to Wisconsin and decided it was only appropriate to only buy local. Sure, it tastes better but I was surprised to see it was cheaper too. I guess it doesn't matter how much of your food is plastic and sawdust if you have to pay to haul it an extra hundred miles.

2026 is the year of the Windows desktop! :)
