Ask HN: What's Your Proudest Hack?
https://github.com/tux2bsd/freebsd-update-probe
freebsd-update is broken, it does internal spaghetti which prevents it from doing the most logical thing first: "check upstream for updates"
I created a work around, it works well.
I don't use FreeBSD, but it's good for a hobby OS. Has a few cool ways to do things (seperation of OS vs external software & /etc/rc.conf). The project is coasting on ZFS success.
They HATE me at the FreeBSD Forums. I don't think a single one of them truly understood what freebsd-update-probe actually achieved.
I'm not a programmer.

Netlink Added to FreeBSD – Unmodified Linux IP(8) Correctly Works
FreeBSD related shameless plug: https://github.com/tux2bsd/freebsd-update-probe
It makes the update process efficient like it should have been (when there are no updates).

Technical reasons to choose FreeBSD over GNU/Linux
I gave FreeBSD a try:
I provided a workaround for a problem with freebsd-update, summary and tool can found here: https://github.com/tux2bsd/freebsd-update-probe
FreeBSD separation of OS vs other applications is great.
FreeBSD pioneered ZFS integration but are coasting on that success.
The FreeBSD forums, linked from the FreeBSD website are insular. FreeBSD zealots LARPing as the true "true" BSD / Unix enthusiasts.
If you want to try FreeBSD just use the Handbook. The FreeBSD community is childish and won't list that FreeBSD can run on KVM (the mere fact it can, I'm not talking in depth instructions).

The temptation of writing shell scripts, illustrated
I loathe nearly all man pages, they are written in a manner that is as over the top and an absolute chore to digest. I believe it is a form on programmer one-upmanship, it is largely unnecessary and stalls common usage massively.
I made this recently and tried very hard to make it so that the vast majority of people that could use the command line could grasp what it did, usage is trivial:

I guess what I'm saying is I like documentation written for humans (which you do).

5. The job we pushed then saves the Console to a PNG in a memory stream (file operations were substantially slower in thread for some reason), and then calls Discord API to send the response.
I'm personally proud of this because I used MonoGame in a way that it was not intended for.
The code worked at the time it was written. Unfortunately, it does not work anymore at this time (likely due to some API update).
The code is available here: https://github.com/INeedAUniqueUsername/Colorbot/blob/master...
