Two sites that can help you out getting weather info on the console:
wttr.in is developed by [Wayback/Archive] Igor Chubin (@igor_chubin) / X and looks at the request header to figure out what kind of output it sends.
It supports various output formats, so on my TODO list is to see how they do their mapping: always an opportunity to learn (it’s based on Python and Go so I am curious what libraries they use as well).
From the documentation:
wttr.in currently supports five output formats:
- ANSI for the terminal;
- Plain-text for the terminal and scripts;
- HTML for the browser;
- PNG for the graphical viewers;
- JSON for scripts and APIs;
- Prometheus metrics for scripts and APIs.
The ANSI and HTML formats are selected based on the User-Agent string.
There are more parameters in the documentation on the main page of the repository and through this command:
curl wttr.in/:help
The idea is derived from [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – schachmat/wego: weather app for the terminal.
Oh: Igor has more repositories at [Wayback/Archive] chubin (Igor Chubin) Β· GitHub (including [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – chubin/cheat.sh: the only cheat sheet you needΒ which is hosted at [Wayback/Archive] cheat.sh; I thought I had blogged about that before, but found it only in a draft note mentioning that I got it via [WaybackSave/Archive] Nicolas Krassas on X: “The only cheat sheet you need cheat.sh“)
A 7 timer JSON usage example is at [Wayback/Archive] Get Weather from 7Timer! Β· GitHub
It has documentation at
Output formats can be chosen from HTML, PNG, XML and JSON.

HPR is a great podcast series!

I originally searched for the tables below to see if I could get the visualisations of TeX and LaTeX right for infinite loop in βLaTeX: A Document Preparation Systemβ by Leslie Lamport, printed in 1994..
Didn’t work, neither did using plain html super and subscript. The only thing that worked was using CSS styles (I chose to embed them, as separate CSS files are a huge premium over the WordPress plan), which also preserves actual meaning for screen readers:

Still public merchant information
It looks like some store and merchang APIs were not protected back when [Wayback/Archive] Dotpe API Security Breach β bool.dev was published.
Reminder to self: check their status now as I can’t believe their “human error” got fixed properly.
History (reverse chronological order):
[Wayback/Archive] Tweet JSON: [Wayback/Archive] GYSlTthakAEoojp.png:orig (2346Γ1838)
Now protected private API
[Wayback/Archive] Deedy on X: “6 hours later, the API is still very much public! ⦔

It’s almost
Goal of the current post amend the above posts with information so I can later write a bookmarklet or web-page with JavaScript that – from a x.com or twitter.com – tweet URL can get the JSON, then the images and/or videos in all sizes, then generate a web-page from it for Wayback Machine archival.

For my link archive: [Wayback/Archive] Payload Box.
It has lots of examples on payloads for various kinds of injections that are excellent teaching material.
Covered are Cross Site Scripting (XSS), SQL Injection, Server Side Template Injection, RFI/LFI, Command Injection, CSV Injection, Directory, Open Redirect and XML External Entity (XXE) Injection.
Got there when inspired by:

[Wayback/Archive] dodyg/practical-aspnetcore: Practical samples of ASP.NET Core 2.1, 2.2, 3.1, 5.0, 6.0 and 7.0 projects you can use. Readme contains explanations on all projects.
By the time you read this, all examples should have been rewritten to use minimal API footprint so it easier to get just the essentials from each example.
ViaΒ [Wayback/Archive] dodyg on Twitter: “I just realized this repo has about around 1500 samples in total because for each version of ASP.NET Core the samples get modified in some ways beyond project increment, e.g for .NET 6, all samples gets rewritten to use minimal API.”

Over the years, WordPress started to beautify more and more text thereby malforming many (read thousands) of my older blog posts.
An example is this:
--jeroen
is now rendered as
βjeroen
The two hypen-minus signs or -- have become a en-dash or β, not even an em-dash or β that is is double the width of an en-dash.
So after figuring out the cause, I asked if one could change it for a WordPress.com blog backed by a premium account: [Wayback/Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers on Twitter: “Hi @wordpressdotcom, how do I globally disable wptexturize for a paid wiert.wordpress.com blog (it has Premium subscription)? Over the years, it has malformed more and more of my text which I don’t want (as it is way too much work to re-visit thousands of blog posts).”
Unbelievably, the answer is no!
So WordPress.com mandatorily changes the display of all your old Premium blog posts and the only solution they offer is to upgrade for another USD ~17 per month to disable it.

I bumped into [Wayback/Archive] Bridgy Fed a while ago. The highlights:
@bsky.brid.gy@bsky.brid.gy.@example.com@web.brid.gy.@ap.brid.gy.example.com.web.brid.gy.Source is written in Python and HTML. It is available from [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – snarfed/bridgy-fed: π A bridge between decentralized social network protocols.
The blog post re-introducing it:Β [Wayback/Archive] Re-introducing Bridgy Fed | snarfed.org.
There is docs too: [Wayback/Archive] Bridgy Fed: docs
Bridgy Fed is a kind of a spin-off from the longer existing [Wayback/Archive] Bridgy which has documentation at [Wayback/Archive] About – Bridgy and source code at [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – snarfed/bridgy: π£ Connects your web site to social media. Likes, retweets, mentions, cross-posting, and more….

I created my [Wayback/Archive] wiert.me profile – Bridgy Fed which resulted in these two entities (that by the time you read this should have some updates):
