So I'm trying to remedy my carpal tunnel by considering making the decision to give up my mouse completely, and use only the keyboard. I look throu...

I'm quite fond of Vanilla JS
This is one of my favorites. I've made it a point to show it to the people I teach JavaScript to. :)
I LOL'd - literally...
I like
tholman.com/elevator.js/
I laughed way too hard at this!
Oh. Maigod.
I am using this in my next project.
That one is awesome! Trying to sneak that into the next project :D
Ahh, thats hot
classy!!
The BlessYourCodeTag is definitely up there on my list.
Also, activate-power-mode. (Thanks @ben )
Hell yes, I'm very glad activate-power-mode exists.
Now with a COMBO MODE!!!
The world needs more of this
I've seen that being used in a Code in the Dark challenge. It was hilarious as hell!
I used this package when taking lecture notes all last semester, it helped to keep things interesting in non-CS courses.
We should eventually add the ability to render things easily on the window bitmap to Emacs someday...
A Latex package to add coffee stains.
hanno-rein.de/archives/349
Emacs "Zone"-Mode (It comes with Emacs)
We've got GitHub flavored markdown, so it's like so:
We'll definitely add it in the markdown cheatsheet though, not the first time someone's wondered. 🙃
This one is funny and potentially useful once every blue moon: foaas.com/
I really love using cfonts to spice up my shell scripting :)
Definitely got to keep that one in mind :-) . Also, I guess it tells a lot about your mindset if you write down the whole alphabet and 0 to 9 as a list instead of going [A-Z], [0-9] :-D
Aha that's great!
I use figlet to tell me what machine I've shelled into. Non-useless, because I'm an idiot and will get it wrong otherwise!
Also, piping it through lolcat makes it all pretty.
My favorite has to be /dev/null as a Service.
Thanks for the tip - maybe I can be their next "Map-Enlarge Engineer"...
Hard to go past System.Ben for me. Best .NET library in the world...
Fast and secure - by default!
And also Rythm.js: a javascript library that makes your page dance!!
Check out the cool demo page
This is pretty cool
TrumpScript - Making Python Great Again (github.com/samshadwell/TrumpScript)
It's a programming language inspired by Trump, and as a result is entertaining to read about but impossible to make use of for anything serious (as the docs say). Here's some of the features:
I really like doge
Hacker Typer!
What about the Hacker Typer by WhiteScreentest.net
Got a couple of (almost) useless repos :
and for French speakers:
I made the mistake of clicking this in the office with my sound on
Not proud
I created an automated religious API so you can pray the API god with an API call. Basically, automating religion. Jagon API
I usually pray whenever I start a build in my CI. Completely useless.
This one is a-mazing: projects.haykranen.nl/java/
RoR has "forty_two" method.
apidock.com/rails/Array/forty_two
api.rubyonrails.org/classes/Active...
oh god my ears
In an effort to catch Ruby up to the crazy number of Node.js modules, I wrote and released is_even during a lightning talk. You can see the video here: youtu.be/UT0Rl_EJNN4?t=795
This is pretty much the most useless thing I've ever seen
hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SP...
Even says it's useless in the class
Whenever I set up a test runner I have to use the nyan reporter youtu.be/UfNeezklIUc
i'm a fan of github.com/kragniz/anyprint
Not useful by itself, but definitely one of my favourite non-things is example.com.
Together with example.net and example.org it's reserved as per rfc2606.
I don't know if this qualifies as useless as there's use for it.…
I really like sl, it displays a steam locomotive when you type sl instead of ls. Not cancelable of course!
Since I spend a lot of time on Twitter discussing politics, chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/... (addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/a...) is a must in these dark times.
I also have been naming my hosts with nsaname (npmjs.com/package/nsaname)
Disclaimer: I built them.
I really like this one when I'm on a terminal: Pokemonsay
This needs more love ❤️
I like Acidfy: github.com/igore34/acidify
github.com/nvbn/thefuck
That's actually quite useful.
Favorite useless repo: »No Code - The best way to write secure and reliable applications« github.com/kelseyhightower/nocode
Favorite useless package: Good old »cowsay« packages.ubuntu.com/de/trusty/cowsay / packagist.org/packages/alrik11es/c...
Favorite useless website: »/dev/null as a Service« devnull-as-a-service.com/code/
Is it wrong that I recognized
woman.gifas Grimes?youtube.com/watch?v=JtH68PJIQLE
I'm super distracted by the header image setting a class variable on instance initialization and the type error in
lonely_method.It's served it's purpose then. 😉
I'm not that big on linters, but the gray lines really irked me when I wrote that up.
99 replies and not a single link to Zombocom? I am so disappointed… Guess I'll be the first. :)
(technically not a "programming" thing but it is inspirational… and definitely useless)
I'm very fond of the useless tools I make. Unpepefy - github.com/rbanffy/unpepefy (and its back-end, Naziscore - github.com/rbanffy/naziscore) is one such thing.
Another useless tool (I prefer the term "inutility") is github.com/rbanffy/selectric-mode. It makes your Emacs sound important. Some people add it as a minor mode for Markdown so they feel better about writing documentation.
Another one is github.com/rbanffy/nsaname, a tool I made so I could properly assign codenames to projects or just make server names sound cooler. Who doesn't like to ssh to deity-maker so that they can work on KrakenGibson HX.
My favorite tool is: Github Sectory.
Least it's honest!
I do not have a favorite but I am amazed by the small NPM packages that can be replaced by JS6+ or Lodash.
My favourite useless time waster is webpack. I can spend days, weeks in front of it, just to realize probably I will get a less sized project if I completely abandone it.
The two that come to mind:
foaas.com/
baconipsum.com/
baconipsum is good, but I personally prefer slipsum.com.
I never knew this existed. Thank you. This is perfect.
I was bored working on a mockup and realized that there isnt a picard ipsum generator. Something fun for this weekend I think.
That Readme for BlessYourCodeTag is everything I wanted it to be. Hyper terminal has several fun plugins too!
I did not write this but i do really enjoy this php library table-flip made by @SaraMG
github.com/kelseyhightower/nocode and github.com/jezen/is-thirteen are both forever in my heart. ❤️
Awww man, I was secretly hoping that by pressing the [bless | ramen] button, an option to bless the creator with a pack of ramen would show up. Hope your wrists are feeling better Andy!
That would be amazing!
Also, thanks about the wrists :) They're getting there!
vanilla-css.com
Link 404'd :( You're probably missing
http://before the link.Thank God!!!
Nobody is asking me to show my ridiculously messed up git repository.. 😊😊
github.com/Rabrennie/anything.js/
github.com/haskellcamargo/php-code...
Still in the progress of understanding FizzBuzzEnterpriseEdition.
Bahaha I like the issues and PRs, like "Dockerize the app," "make code coverage bigger," and "split the monolith."
nocode
hackertyper is fun for showing off to your friends ;)
I like this one personally : packagist.org/packages/kk/chuck-co...
I like Dogescript enough to mirror their website after it went down. dogescript.science
cmatrix and sl are some of my favourites to sit and watch for hours
I made this: wordpress.org/plugins/wp-doge-mode/
github.com/transitive-bullshit/com... 😄
How about this one? :D
github.com/vishalnarkhede/not-hotdog
Just stumbled upon this and knew it belonged on the list, Cage Icons
Hahaha I started using VS Code not too long ago. I might need to use this.
Cornify of course!! ✨🦄✨🦄✨
In France, we have this one : perdu.com
I love it
My all-time favorite
Oh damnnnn
🤣🤣🤣
It's good to some fun with what you love i guess
Has to be fukol-grids
I'm surprised this one hasn't been posted yet!
The only one brave enough to tell the truth.
github.com/kelseyhightower/nocode
lol max!!
Have to give a shout-out to Swearjure: Valid Clojure without any alphanumeric characters!
Language of the future right there!
