Happy New Year HN! I’m the co-creator of Orbiter, a dead simple tool for uploading and hosting static sites. We built Orbiter for ourselves and realized it would probably be useful for others. Static site content is some of the simplest on the web, yet hosting this content has gotten increasingly complex over time. Many of you are engineers and don’t have much problem with CI/CD pipelines as a mechanism for deploying a website. This is true for me as well. But there are times when I want to just upload a simple website. I might not even want to put it under source control. And I know…

- TITetris in a PDF▲1,289
I realized that the PDF engines of modern desktop browsers (PDFium and PDF.js) support JavaScript with enough I/O primitives to make a basic game like Tetris. It was a bit tricky to find a union of features that work in both engines, but in the end it turns out that showing/hiding annotation "fields" works well to make monochrome pixels, and keyboard input can be achieved by typing in a text input box. All in all it's quite janky but a nice reminder of how general purpose PDF scripting can be. The linked PDF is all ASCII so you can just open it in a text editor, or have a look at…
