that feeling when you realize your therapist doesn't think climate collapse is a #bigdeal
the unending scream of beaing eaten by ceasless computer hardware failures
this pandemic fucking SUUUUUUCKS
txt txt txt txt txt txt txt
and then I made latkes for 30...of course, this being a pandemic, we have no one, and have not had anyone over in months and months. So now I will eat *so* many latkes.
welp, my txtnish tweets are coming in hot...and crazy...so...just gonna leave it an sorry for flooding your TL
@lucidiot I had no clue there was even a character limit
this is mostly to say C ... ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯_
it has been weeks...and I've still been unable to modify fe to my needs! Curse
you don't actually *need* a digital note taking system...
I like computers, but I think I am starting to hate every service built on top of them...
I have a baseless theory that one reason so much software is never *done* is because of things like SCRUM and AGILE that reduce done-ness to such small chunks teams loose sight of the larger goal
I want very much to embed a thing into a thing I'm wroking on in C...but I am very bad at C
after not really getting Janet I now can't help but to use it for nearly everything -- I blame @pbatch
today seems like a solid day for the only latin quote I've ever memorized >> Difficile est saturam non scribere
fraidyc.at now supports twtxt -- between fraidyc.at and the new 1feed.app I may be able to shut down my self hosted rss reader
made a heap of updates to my #wiki recently. A heap more coming over the next few days https://eli.li/wiki/toc/ -- also now using my bespoke lisp wiki thing, that is mostly just a wrapper around pandoc
dear devs., just because you have a testing team doesn't mean you should totally not test your own work...
my kingdom for a pair of headphones that I can use to take calls and listen to music/podcasts on...
back to work...what do I do again?
@hjertnes welcome to the oldman emacs club of light theme users
I wanna see a movie about Dave Bautista's character from Blade Runner 2049
I've been writing a whole heap of #commonlisp lately, and, whilst I love it I can't help but to feel really drawn to #scheme, especially something like chicken scheme. I like that there seems to be less scheme, all in all, to need to hold in ones head, and that most schemes compile to a static binary -- whilst this is doable w/common lisp, it doesn't seem to be its normal use (maybe I'm mistaken, though?). The tooling for common lisp, though, absolute :chef's kiss:
a downside of running a major chunk of my work-life through emacs is that sometimes your config decides to bork-itself and poof goes a bunch of stuff.
spent another day digging dirt instead of writing code. It is becoming a v enjoyable habit
@lucidiot you gotta at the CNAME to make sure it resolves
September, the month most derided in April
I think my ideal syntax highlighting theme would *only* highlight TODO: and FIXME: comments, and keep everything else the same color.
settled for just writing a whole heap of lisp to manage timestamps instead'
I unabashedly like jupiter ascending.
I have one week to sort out a year of home schooling for a 4yo -- here we go!
I could *almost* make one myself right now but I'm out of tempeh...cabage, cabage though, never without cabage
I would do unspeakable things for a vegan ruben right now.
TTRPG and LISP dev all in one night -- what a weekendtxtnish timeline!
@melyanna I'd love to see that gemlog script! I've been trying to sort out how to best produce 'em
Rainy day -- played a bunch of Hero Kids, a #ttrpg for kids, with my oldest (4.5). It was fun and they picked it up right off. I'm not in love with the game essentially being lil'DnD, though. It is *very* combat focused, without much room for non-GM pushed story telling. I feel like it is missing any mechanics for players to really help shape the story. The game also has no exit ritual, leading to potentially abrupt end of play.
lol, it seems that txtnish did not like that last tweet that included a lisp code snippet
I'm looking for guidance on the best way to sort nested lists in #commonlisp. I have a structure along the lines of ((:key banana :date Thu,
-0400)(:key kiwi :date Mon,
-0400)) where I want to sort by :date -- it is trivial for me to convert the date data itself to a more sortable format, but I'm not sure of the best way to dip into the nested list and then preform the sort. //cc #lisp #functionalprogramming

I wanna hack on txtnish, or some other twtxt client to ignore \\@ mentions to folks I don't follow
that second mdx post was in error...but also true
mdxjs ... never... mdxjs is no.
I've heard it said one of the hardest things in programming is naming things...whomever said that didn't have to write many bug tickets. Those subject lines are freaking impossible for me.
mdxjs ... never... mdxjs is no.
Cabbage and Caraway -- fav food or name of a boogie boutique?
What is an esoteric thing that you know a lot about for no reason other than being interested in it?
@prologic no worries -- I like testing it out. I'm so-so when it comes to bringing images into twtxt, I sort of like it as an all txt medium, personally, but I like seeing what you are doing with it a lot
@prologic (re avatar.png) I saw you mention it a few hours back so dropped it in
@prologic (re-front matter) nice! thanks -- also, fyi, I added an avatar following your spec. earlier
I just added some front matter to my twtxt file...wonder if that'll totally bugger things up?
I've spent the past few weeks building a bunch of dashboards for common DevOps tasks I have to preform at work -- I've been using literate programs in org-babel to do this, and it has been absolutely awesome. A mix of straight SQL, restclient.el, elisp. So far it is all text-based, but I think the next step will be to pipe some data into something to output graphs within emacs.
@pbatch it is looking awesome -- *so much* tangling
@prologic (re learning lisp) I defo recommend at leaast dipping a toe in. I write JS all day for work, but learning some lisp/scheme totally made JS click for me. Similarly, learning some forth made memory allocation/mgmt in C make a HEAP more sense, too -- and now I do a lot of stack based scripting in lisp, lol. Common Lisp is *HUGE* so a lot to learn, and I find most schemes to be fiddly, with questionable tooling, but https://janet-lang.org/ is pretty groovy, and if you are familiar w/any C, or C like languages it is pretty quick to pick up (although, it is weird to look like a lisp but to be totally void of true lists...)
