@maiki@mastodon.sdf.org I think it's a fun idea! https://www.npmjs.com shows a different npm definition (not visible on the mobile site) on each page load, and it makes me smile.
As long each title is coherent and starts with the name, I can't think of any obvious issues :)
In my blog post about Emacs keybindings https://www.wilfred.me.uk/blog/2018/01/06/the-emacs-guru-guide-to-key-bindings/ I mention the 'Emacs Guru Test'.
It's a cute way of seeing how well you know Emacs, so I'm pleased to have shared it. I didn't invent it though. My googling has totally failed to find the original author.

Rust 1.27 is out, with stable SIMD support, even better docs, several handy lints and an interesting discussion of a regret in the trait syntax leading to the dyn keyword: https://blog.rust-lang.org/2018/06/21/Rust-1.27.html

YouTube is giving uploaders new ways to monetise their content, including selling merchandise: https://techcrunch.com/2018/06/21/youtube-introduces-channel-memberships-merchandise-and-premieres/
It's largely competing with Twitch (which makes tipping easy and desirable) but also the wider ecosystem of vlogger monetisation services.
Is there any way to see whether you're already following an account from the Mastodon web client?
I get 'Remote Follow' on all accounts on other instances, whereas Tusky on Android helpfully reports whether or not I'm following.
@aidalgol@icosahedron.website deadgrep focuses on:
* focused UI. By not using compilation-mode, there's no superfluous symbols or duplicated filenames shown.
* easy filtering. It's easy to change case sensitivity, search type, file type, etc from an existing search.
* minimum keystrokes. If you have an active region, it's a single keystroke (no directory or file type required).
A really neat way of building web UIs that communicate 'work in progress' -- web components that render like hand drawings, and different every time! https://wiredjs.com/

I've written an #emacs plugin for searching for text with ripgrep: https://github.com/Wilfred/deadgrep
rg is a fantastic search tool, and deadgrep.el includes everything I've learnt with several hundred users of ag.el!
The Emacs Problem: https://sites.google.com/site/steveyegge2/the-emacs-problem
A good discussion of lispiness, the inherent structure in many text formats, and editors that are dynamically configurable.
"Significant effort has been put into making optimization output agnostic of the -gsetting (so you can rebuild binary with debug info after your program core dumped and use it to debug the core dump)"
