“I do not know with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.” - Albert Einstein.

Snopes says this sentiment was actually expressed by Einstein, though perhaps not in this exact phrasing.

Added a second meaning for HA, thanks.

Mm, added a few numeronyms: i18n, l10n, a11y, k8s.

Inserted to the list, thanks.

The database is domain-specific: here in /c/selfhosted, an acronym like IP (if I had that in the list) would mean something different to a database for (say) /c/legal. General acronyms like YSK aren’t included.

Thanks; inserted: HA, LXC, SAN

You make a fine point: it’s case-sensitive, so it’d only see PiHole. Which I guess is fine…

It also doesn’t kick in until at least five comments have been left on a thread, so as not to be spammy as much as possible.

Don’t mind me, just testing acronym detection.

NAS, PiHole, MQTT

I had this exact thing with Mastodon a few days ago. Couldn’t find a way to get the local server’s post-ID for a federated post if you had the original URL, so I thought “screw it, I’ll do it myself”.

Downloaded the source, set up a local instance, added extra space to my server so I could run ElasticSearch, went to the file where I wanted to add my “uri:” search prefix, and I find (to paraphrase)…

Send resolve=true to fetch remote instances and return their local ID

Been there for years.

It’s just… lightweight reddit basically. I dig it.

One could say you… digg it.
