Httpbun is an HTTP server similar to httpbin.org, but has a few more bells. One of them is the `/mix` endpoint, and the Mixer tool.

With httpbin, we can't have an endpoint that responds with, say, 400 status code, _and_ an HTML body with a script injection, for when I need to test any HTTP client. This is possible with `/mix`. Here's the Mixer URL for such an endpoint: https://httpbun.com/mixer/s=400/b64=PHNjcmlwdD5hbGVydCgiaW5q....

Very beta and work-in-progress, https://littletools.app/saml-provider.

I intend to work on it further once my kid is… well, a little less of a toddler. :)

My little daughter, and my mother, love playing a little game I made. That made making the game oh so much more rewarding and fun!

It's at https://play.sharats.me.

I attempted to solve this recently with a browser extension at https://github.com/sharat87/inhuman-time

Haha, fair enough. I wanted to add a choice of formats, and this gives me ideas. Thanks!

24 hour time at the very least! Down with am/pm!

Relevant xkcd https://xkcd.com/1179/

To me it always seemed wrong OS vendors support and encourage hundreds of "locales" instead of pushing the international standards like this into wider adoption. So far there even is no international locale option and, except on Windows, no easy way to tweak your locale.

Living in the EU I still use the US locale for apps and libs to work the default way, except on Windows (where this has always been easy) I have always been manually tweaking it to use the metric system and the ISO date and time format. The only annoyance in this case is printing apps defaulting to Letter rather than A4 paper, using national locales causes much more annoyances.

Yeah, I wish that were the case too. But supporting all websites is a little hard. I don't intend to stop with just GitHub though, but will be adding more slowly over time.

Hey HN, this is a quick tiny browser extension to change human time displays to inhuman ones, on GitHub.

Changes human time displays to inhuman ones on GitHub. For example, a time displayed as `3 days ago`, will be changed to `31 Oct 2022, 5:34 pm IST`.

The advantage of this, is say if you are viewing a page of releases for example, and all releases show `3 days ago`, since they are all off by a few minutes or hours, it can be really frustrating to have to hover over each of them to find out the exact time of each release.

This applies in commits page, releases page, updates pages etc.

Hey Peter! It's so humbling to see you check out my blog!

Your articles on awk and sed were a huge inspiration to me around 2008-09, and I super-looked up to you. Never have I imagined you would check out my blog one day!

Thank you for all your work dude! Stay awesome.

Thanks. Didn't know the word builtin had a specific meaning in bash, which, seems obvious now in hindsight. Should be fixed soon.

Good catch. Fixing it.
