    247 by mrshu 8h ago | | |

    Article: 5 min

    This article explains how to make HTTP requests using Bash's /dev/tcp feature in a shell script, even when there are no external tools like curl or wget available.

    This method can be useful for system administrators and DevOps engineers who need to perform HTTP requests in environments where external tools are not available, potentially simplifying their workflow.
    • No external tools required (curl, wget)
    • Handling DNS lookup and TCP connection internally by bash

    Discussion (141):

    The comment discusses a surprising and useful Bash feature, /dev/tcp, which allows performing HTTP requests without the need for external tools like curl or wget. The author finds this discovery to be cool.

  8. Mechanical Watch (2022) from ciechanow.ski
    621 by razin 13h ago | | |

    Article: 1 hr 20 min

    The article provides an in-depth explanation of the inner workings of a traditional mechanical watch, detailing each component's function and how they work together to keep time.

    • Mechanical watches use springs, gears, and levers to track time without electronic components.
    • The mainspring stores energy when wound and releases it through a series of gears to power the watch hands.
    • Gears reduce speed from the mainspring to match the rotation rates of the second, minute, and hour hands.
    • The escapement system controls the release of energy from the mainspring to ensure accurate timekeeping.
    • The balance wheel oscillates at a precise frequency, regulated by jewels and springs, to maintain accuracy.
    • The mainplate holds all components together and includes bearings for smooth rotation.
    • Automatic winding harnesses arm movement to continuously wind the mainspring.

    Discussion (114): 17 min

    The comment thread discusses the appreciation for mechanical watches, their mechanics, and related topics such as DIY watch repair projects, educational content online, and comparisons between mechanical and digital watches. Users share personal experiences, recommendations, and insights on watch maintenance costs and the value of educational resources.

    • Mechanical watches are fascinating to many people
    • Educational content on the internet is valuable and engaging
