Show HN: I wrote an HN bot to suggest HTTPS url when people post HTTP URLs https://ift.tt/3uq7XB1THE RIGHT PEOPLE https://ift.tt/31OIhSqTHE RIGHT PEOPLE https://ift.tt/3cMPads https://ift.tt/3cMPadsTHE RIGHT PEOPLE https://ift.tt/3rPKsjsTHE RIGHT PEOPLE https://ift.tt/3ukbfWE https://ift.tt/3ukbfWE

Show HN: I wrote an HN bot to suggest HTTPS url when people post HTTP URLs It’s inspired by this comment I made: https://ift.tt/3dxKQhp. I actually saw several comments with HTTP URL posted, and that was the only one I bothered to comment on. So I thought that this is something better suited for bots than human. I hacked this together over yesterday and today: https://ift.tt/39E50Vx. Basically it uses the Firebase API (https://ift.tt/1s98Sn3) to find comments with HTTP URLs in them, try the HTTPS version, compare the contents, post back a comment if the contents are more than 95% similar. The “95% similar” part was actually the first part I wrote in the code. At first I tried a few existing go packages implementing diff/lcs, but most of them was quite slow and does a lot of allocations when I’m comparing two randomly generated 10KiB blobs, so I wrote my own (https://ift.tt/3dBlOh5), which is optimized for space (it does almost no allocations), and it’s also faster because allocations are slow. (I know this is an unfair comparison that most of the existing implementations need to give you an output that can be used to reconstruct the two blobs back, so at least some of their allocations are required and unavoidable) I also wrote a bug that it would find the same HTTP url in every run and post the same comment over and over again. My apologize to dang or whoever dealt with it (or maybe the system is good enough that it blocked those repetitive comments automatically). In the end it successfully made 6 comments across ~4 hours (not including the repetitive ones). All of those comments are flagged (likely due to hn policy), https://ift.tt/3cRlkEJ is the only one that’s still visible to other users at the time of writing, if you are curious. I just killed it completely from the request of dang. Although it only lived for a few hours, it’s still a fun exercise. Maybe I’ll convert it into a reddit bot next? Who knows.

Show HN: Miniflux-CLI – offline-first Miniflux client Hey Hacker News, miniflux-cli developer here. I use miniflux as primary source of things to read (including hacker news, of course), but in my case I don’t have stable internet connection most of the time, so I did offline-first console client for miniflux, check it out: https://ift.tt/3fGN40j It syncs all feeds and entries on start and after that you can read all the content offline (including “mark as read”/”mark as unread”). The project built on go, using bbolt db, tview and official miniflux api client. Some neat features – you can set text and background colors of each ui element and hide/show sidebar, statusbar and hotkeybar. Custom hotkeys will be available later, for now “vim-like” is used.
