Becoming increasingly aware of my need for some sort of support group for parents of young children trying to raise decent humans in the face of climate collapse.
@prologic (rss) in the end, I am far to in love w/fraidycat to really seriously use something else right now. They are working to add twtxt support, I think, too ~~~ https://fraidyc.at/~~~
I have been learning C lately. So far I have learned that I really like Go.
me, three hours later HOW CAN YOU CALL THIS A STANDARD:
me: I know, I'll make my own RSS reader -- seems easy enough
my website is reborn...well, partially...there is a lot more work to do, https://eli.li
The backend dev implemented swagger for our APIs today. I have been waiting for this for 6+ years. When I saw it go live I cried...like I actually cried I was so happy.
I have spent a large portion of today trying to replicate a bug in an emulator that I can otherwise replicate on device...so far, no luck
I acceidently typed <> when I meant to type <> and now I want a CI/CD tool that will hunt me down if I make even a minor infraction, only catching up to me years after I thought I'd resolved the bug.
@hjertnes hey hey hey now, my client has support for at mentions, too...I just don't follow jack :whoops:
Found another use for cloth masks today on my walk -- had a spare mask in my pocket and was able to fill it with seeds when I came across some fennel in seed.
@hjertnes (shrimp/butter/mayo) I only eat 1 of those 3 lol
I just made and ate an entire pb&j sandwich instead of my usual just eating the leftover crusts from my kid's soggy leftovers. It was good. Much better than the soggy crusts. Who knew!?
my kingdom for a headphone jack...
@amorris (re-plan9 wireframing) YES PLEASE
@hjertnes it deppends on what you mean by <>? :shrug:
At the start of quarentine I felt that if *I just had 1 weekend to myself I could catch up on all this stuff...* now I feel that if *I just had 1 month to myself I could /maybe/ catch up on some of the more important stuff*
@prologic \\n > Furthermore, Mozilla's contract with Google to include Google as the default search provider inside Firefox is set to expire later this year, and the contract has not been renewed. The Google deal has historically accounted for around 90% of all of Mozilla's revenue, and without it experts see a dim future for Mozilla past 2021.
the last paragraph of the zdnet Mozilla link...wooooof
boy howdy -- mastodon makes it easy to migrate instances, that is wicked smooth
this is a test -- same message on 2 platforms
close that parenthetical statement from earlier...)
@hjertnes I WILL NEVER GIVE IN (but, tbh, I will probablly give that a try soon now that the wiki is growing a bit more\n2020-08-11T18:21:09.000000Z\tclose that parenthetical statement from earlier...)

I am getting close to being able to generate my wiki w/nothing but org tangling. Next big hurdle is to figure out how to create nested pages that mirror the org documents structure
I've warn glasses pretty much every day since I was 11. Purchasing new glasses is one of the most stressful things I ever have to do.
@prologic but the URL is twtxt.net not twt.social?
@hjertnes pretty sure that my beard and name give me away already
@hjertnes you know me, I'm *faaaar* toooo cheap to pay Adobe any money :P
does anyone have recommendations for free, no-fuss wireframing tool? I've used figma (bloated) and balsamiq (fine, but devours my computer) -- both are totally workable, but clunky for pulling something simple togther. I usually get frustrated and just build the wires in HTML/CSS...which sort of defeats the whole reason for wireframing
and, just like that... щ(゚Д゚щ)
@hjertnes Terminal.app for lyfe! ...when on macOS, that is. If not, then, tilix or st.
org-babel is so freaking awesome. I migrated a heap of code to org this weekend. Literate code, FTW
I think my go-to twtxt client misses a non-zero number of messages as they go by.
shout outs to @pbatch for a) the inspo. to get back into it and b) setting me off on the right direction when I couldn't get my config to work
after some fiddling, I've gotten org-babel working for what I need...and I don't ever not wanna use it for anything now :P
have you ever stopped to think about how absolutely terrifying Tony the Tiger would be in real life?
@hjertnes no horses were harmed, and I really do love SQL, I don't need convincing :P
@hjertnes (re-SQL) I ride it like a horse into battle, flailing as I go. But, yeah, I also love it
*continues to scream* SQL for a horse...
*screams* SQL something something something OR DEATH
(re-pasebin) it is as simple as can be, a shell script to upload plain text to m'server and then pipe the URL to pbcopy
to share a snipet on twtxt last night I set up a personal little pastebin that I'm excited to use more
@hjertnes (re-wiki) currently, yes -- the new lisp stuff I just wrote doesn't, though, so I don't think I'll actually ever end up using it :P it was a fun way to spend a few hours, though.
I was going to write a twtxt client in lisp this evening, but instead wrote a wiki engine
poison ivy -- a great way to round this weekend out :P
excited for next year when our garden will be planted and I have far less lawn to mow
@prologic that is a good point, luckily it'd be relatively easy to ensure that didn't happen by keying off the guid on the rss feed
I *think* I've made a passable (note, not 'good') vegan beschamel sauce.
@hjertnes if I actually do it, probably common lisp -- although making an elisp client would be fun
alright...so...time to write a twtxt client in lisp?
cooking w/fire -- now I don't have to ssh to a server to twtxt 🦩
@prologic my blog is very mostly short form, so, I also don't do heaps of long form -- but I love myself RSS. On a similar note, do you know of a service like https://feeds.twtxt.net/ but backwards?
noodling a move to fossil for all my local stuff
2020 in a nut shell: I'm struggling to stay focused and get any work done today because I'm *so* flipping nervous about...our family going to the beach for 1 hour this evening before bed to visit with another family. This will be the first time we've really interacted with another family since March 15th.
@prologic when I've seen bangs used it is usually to make reference, or to create a wiki link -- for instance, the https://webring.xxiivv.com/ used to have a twtxt fed wiki that supported this, I think
@pbatch the 1 hiccup I've had w/janet is that I am struggling to wrap my head around the lisp syntax without actual lists
I also gotta settle on a client to normalize my timestamps
added myself to *we-are-twtxt* ... I could not find instruction on how to do so, though, so here is hoping I did not step on any toes
@hjertnes excited to try out these new features
@pbatch loving the wiki -- you have also got me noodling with janet-lang again!
is it bad that I wanna use sqlite for twtxtc
...and now with a shmancy client
I guess if I am gonna twtxt I should use an actual client and not just echo stuff to a text file through my shell
gonna give this a try -- TWTXT, FTW
@ckipp that is a good point -- I've noodled in debian world for so long I though it'd be fun to try something new, but that is probs a good reason to stick with it. Thanks!
anyone have a recommended linux distro for #rpi? Looking for something with a GUI, the ability to run emacs, and touch the internet
Sorry for spamming /hallway, should be better now!
