alt Hacker NewsI had a tool I'd pipe to, but I'd often only think about it after I'd realize that the command was going to take a while. A push notification sound cool; I used email because I knew how to hack it together with curl.
Here's one zbell implementation, not sure it's the original but it looks like it does the trick: https://gist.github.com/oknowton/8346801
Thanks for sharing the bell. I'll take a look. If you want to try push notifications, I use https://pushover.net as a service.
I developed the tool myself, and it's at https://git.sr.ht/~bayindirh/nudge if you feel like checking it out.
If you want to host the whole push notification infrastructure, you can look at https://ntfy.sh which also can be integrated with cURL.
