a few years ago, my mom was trying to find a website like that to identify some poop she found in the front yard. but she didn't have The Directory. instead, she googled "scat"

check the yciapos thread if you want to see me go from "hm this guy says some interesting stuff for new photographers" to "lmao dude sucks" over the course of a few days. i don't remember him being a particularly bad person with respect to politics (other than some weird but ultimately very minor comments wrt. chinese products, iirc), he is just rather bad at the one thing he's supposed to be good at, which is providing good photography advice.

defector.com is where the deadspin writers went. it's a pay site ostensibly about sports; they also do other journalism. it's the best journalism i've found on the internet. rotor it's kind of lame if people can't discuss the links getting posted though. i agree with you on the shitposts, but discussing the content of the directory to make sure it's generally high quality seems important to me

Dijkstracula posted:https://cr.yp.to/djb.html seconding this. and in this vein: cryptopals.com is great for teaching the fundamentals of cryptography by walking you through breaking various algorithms and implementations. it's super fun and also vital to be an actually-good security engineer. despite that, most security engineers' eyes will glaze over as soon as you talk about this stuff, and they will think you're brilliant.

YES and also nethack.alt.org, which runs a multi-user server and high score list (and accompanying bones file), adds in some nice quality of life patches, allows spectating, etc. it's fun!

RF line of site calculator: https://www.scadacore.com/tools/rf-path/rf-line-of-sight/ you can tell it where antennas are gonna be, of what height, and it figures out if there's line of sight between the two. useful for telling if you're gonna be able to hit a repeater from a certain place, what kind of mast you'd need, etc

i use jekyll for my site, but as a ruby thing it breaks and requires janitoring every thirty seconds. so i am highly disincentivized from making new posts etc. it's a dead simple site, so migrating it to some other static site generator (including a dumb shell script) wouldn't be hard, but it's also greater than zero effort. which is too much.
