My comment is kind of unrelated to the content of this, but just wanted to say this is the type of stuff I love seeing on Hackernews. The business and tech stuff I find on the platform is nice, but I find this type of really specific passion work is what keeps me coming back to hackernews. It's great to see this stuff get bubbled up to the front page. Yesterday this got to the top: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29031488 (55 GiB/s fizzbuzz), which was such a good read, and just so specific and niche.

I guess it's just nice to see people so passionate about things.

sort of reminds me of the post someone made a while back about living in their allotment. the conversations people were having in the comments were so entertaining, even though half of them were about regulations in different places!
replying to myself to make another note, it's also why sunday is my favorite day on here. there seems to be more miscellaneous content posted.
