Ask HN: How do you keep track of your to-dos? longer-term projects?
For my long term side project I just dump ideas into a barely organised backlog.md [^1]. After finishing a feature or taking a few months away, I normally dive back in by browsing this and choosing the next milestone.
It's worked well for a couple of years, and helps me keep the long term goals in mind.

Ask HN: Share Your Personal Site
https://domwillia.ms
It uses a custom static site generator because I needed to procrastinate somehow before starting the first post... Now it's nicely stable and punishing new posts is quick and easy

Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (March 2022)
Location: Tallinn, Estonia (UK citizen intending to move there)
Remote: Willing to work partly remote but I require a sponsored visa to work in Estonia
Willing to relocate: Yes, to Tallinn :^)
Technologies: Rust, C, Python preferably, but C++ too. I enjoy low-level work focused on performance; see my toy OS, JVM implementation and game engine on my github profile.

Ask HN: What are some tools / libraries you built yourself?
I've written some pretty low-level OpenGL bindings in Rust, because the existing solutions are either too high level or over the top complexity wise.
At the time I only had experience with the OpenGL C api and didn't want to learn a totally different Rust abstraction or mix C/C++ libraries into a pure Rust project.

Ask HN: What (side-)project are you working on?
I've been alternating between two long term Rust projects, which seems to work in keeping the motivation up for both!
A Dwarf Fortress-like game (and engine): https://github.com/DomWilliams0/name-needed
A x64 operating system: https://github.com/DomWilliams0/DomeOS

Ask HN: What is your current side-project?
A Dwarf Fortress-like game (and engine) in Rust: https://github.com/DomWilliams0/name-needed
Ambitious to be sure, but after a year and a half I'm still consistently working on it, and still enjoying it!

3 YEARS On My Side Project!
I've learned so much while making this project into my personal website (dustinbrett.com). It's made me a much better web developer as I have tried to emulate a desktop environment with pixel perfect accuracy using CSS, HTML & JavaScript.

Unpopular Opinion: Desktop GUI is the most efficient and fulfilling way of Human-Computer Interaction
As someone who built a website around this idea, I agree! The desktop metaphor is powerful. If anyone wants to check it out it's at https://dustinbrett.com

Show HN: ExaequOS, a new OS running in a web browser
Very cool! It's always refreshing to see the "OS in the browser" projects that try and actually make something functional. I've been working on one myself for nearly 3 years now, called daedalOS (https://github.com/DustinBrett/daedalOS).
The WASM kernel idea is very cool and I hope one day to be able to add something similar to my project. I think you are onto something and I am excited to see your progress as you implement the GUI.

Os.js – open-source JavaScript web desktop platform with a window manager
If you want some Browserception, my desktop environment (https://dustinbrett.com/) can indeed do this. But after a few levels in Chromium you need to add a random query string (/?a=1) to the URL otherwise it stops working.
What are some alternatives?
