Some tiny personal programs I've written

There was this post on HN the other day titled Some tiny personal programs I’ve written that I enjoyed a lot. It resonated with me so much because I’ve been pumping out smaller programs left and right for a while as well, but never thought of sharing those with the public, so let’s change that. I love hacking on mini projects. Fixing a problem with programming feels like a superpower - I can do something that other people that can’t program can’t do, and every time I find a situation where I can apply my skills to an issue, I feel happy. ...

On the contrary, tools that give me too many customization options turned out to be a pretty bad match for a brain like mine. ...

d.sh

Never expected to own a single-letter ccTLD/TLD (not gTLD), but it somehow happened anyway - yours truly is now the owner of d.sh! A while back (must have been years by now) I scouted some short domain names to potentially use, one of them being d.sh. It’s a reserved premium name that became available and is now being exclusively handled by divido.org. It had one of those “This is a premium name” sites with an option to get notified when it’s being auctioned. ...
