InJuly is a personal blog at injuly.in about programming and web. Since 2023, 7 different Hacker News readers have linked it 13 times, most often “Why am I writing a JavaScript toolchain in Zig?”. It is still writing: the last post was on 2026-06-14, and you can follow it by feed.
Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link InJuly for visual, explorable explanations of the Fourier transform and series, and for a write-up surveying alternative Lua implementations.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

HN discussionThat was somewhat of an entertaining read. > Terra is C if you replaced the preprocessor with Lua. This is what is written on the tin. PUC made there own version of Terra Pallene http://www.inf.puc-rio.br/~roberto/docs/Gualandi-2020-SCP.pd... https://github.com/pallene-lang/pallene https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3inzGGFefg This is a good writeup on all the Alt-Luas https://injuly.in/blog/gsoc/
