Let's go on a treasure hunt!
@mildbyte 6 years, 4 months ago | programming | games | python | telegram | bots |
Chatbots are basically a clunky commandline interface to things that sometimes really need a custom UI. But what if I do want to make something that uses some of the features (a GPS receiver, a camera, a microphone) that a ...

Perils of running your own server
@mildbyte 6 years, 4 months ago | programming |
A couple of days of this site being up and I've already made some friends. I used a simple lighttpd log analyzer called Visitors (that apparently was written by antirez of Redis fame!) to see who was actually looking at ...
