@prologic You can't get a project on https://jamstack.org/ because it's very tied up wtih GitHub.
@lyse @vain I'm still waiting for Plan9 on the dekstop assuming I'm immortal.
I'm so not a big fan on how almost everything depends on GitHub. You can't get on https://jamstack.org/ if you don't have a GitHub repo. πŸ˜”
@prologic @gugod What does it say?
@ionores @antonio I'm new to Signal also, haha, how does Session compare to Signal?
@prologic @hijsi I'm an animal! 😜
@prologic Is this in response to Signal having problems? πŸ˜›
@prologic This is nice.
@sjkelleyjr I wonder if I can get one those also. πŸ˜›

No sure if problem is my explanation or UNIX thingy. The content is pretty dense.

upp = unpreprocessed. Makes sense? 😁

@antonio Mine is also having difficulties.
@prologic @felixp7 Is there ANY democratic country?
@felixp7 The thread is long. tl;dr?
@niplav What kind of _thinking_?
@prologic Doesn't you body tell you when it feels tired? 😜
@prologic How about an app to remind you to go to the toilet?
Hello @superbil!
@prologic This guy created a repository https://github.com/rvalente/homebrew-mkws. πŸ˜› I have no idea how Homebrew works.
Don't have a Mac to compile on. Would really like, can I rent or get a free preferably Mac vm?
@prologic Still have some people on Facebook, I don't post there, just use the chat. I give Twitter another shot but it's not for me. I wonder why? I wonder why Facebook and Twitter didn't resonate with me. Maybe because it's a popularity contest? Maybe because it's an image thing?
@prologic If you kindnap me and hold me hostage here on https://twtxt.net/, how would I tell the rest of the world?
@sjkelleyjr Is that "Ethical Ads" banner on https://console.substack.com/ and "Ethical Ads" ad or some kind of sponsorship?
@sj
@prologic In order: Upwork, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, Warframe, Reddit, Three dots?, Bluetooth, NFC, Vibrate?, Wi-Fi, GSM Signal, Battery.
@prologic Android Screenshot
@prologic Mine display properly.
@prologic Not sure about the others, but I personally was aware it! πŸ˜›
@lyse I believe I'll add a "Templates" section to the main Docs page, have a summary there and link to pp.
@lyse I was considering that also.
@vain I feel you man!
@vain Did you drink all of it today?
New static site generator website https://mkws.sh/ !
@vain I don't believe in "shoulds" or "should nots", I believe "is to be preferred" *is to be preferred* 😜. Or "it's a good idea", or "is recommended".
"Morning!"
@prologic Looks pretty cool! Really have to remember it! Starred!
@prologic I prefer using a combination of https://github.com/hyperhype/hyperscript and https://github.com/Matt-Esch/virtual-dom or something similar as I don't want to do any OOP. I define UI components as functions, renderForm, renderWidget, etc...
@adi @antonio And rather keep JavaScript on the frontend only as an *optional* layer.
@antonio @adi Also, I don't feel any attraction to Rust.
@antonio Last project I worked was frameworkless, small libs, virtual-dom, hyperscript, kinda hard to switch back to frameworks. I feel however attracted to Go, has a kind of a "raw" feeling, don't have much experience with it tho.
@prologic @sjkelleyjr What about this https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jan/06/john-dillermand-denmark-launches-childrens-tv-show-man-giant-penis?
@vain What language/stack are you using now?
@vain You have C, Go for that. Shell scripts are glue mostly.
@vain Haha, why do you say that? Did it happen to you?
Also, I realized Rob Pike stopped tweeting, his last tweet is from 8th of May 2019, https://twitter.com/rob_pike.
I initially found the sh syntax disgusting, with time I came to enjoy it to be honest.
Found this little a gem a while ago http://z3bra.org/pm/, a "simple (borderline stupid) pack manager".
@sjkelleyjr @prologic Well, glad to meet you! 😊
@prologic Vigorously!
@ionores Yeah, we've been blessed with cheap high speed Internet, monthly rent cost is pretty accurate. (Romanian here)
@sjkelleyjr @prologic Pretty cool and in a short amount of time? How much time since you launched?
@antonio I ment some people don't think Bucharest is a nice city to live in, I personally enjoy it. Why oh why do I have a problem with React, "everybody" seems to be doing it. I guess at some point I stopped trying to keep up with the latest and greatest in JavaScript land and haven't abandoned the idea of progressive enhancement. Am I insane? Go fits me pretty well from what I see.
@adi @antonio What tech is hot there at this time in terms of stacks?
@antonio I'm currently located in Bucharest, Romania, also lockdown here, might be over end of summer. I personally enjoy the city, others say it sucks.
@prologic It's 2:35 AM here, I usually wake up around 2 PM, we overlap a lot. Told you I was born to work from home. 😁
@prologic It's just a reply, don't think a lot of people saw it 😝 and that guy is great with links!
@sjkelleyjr @prologic How many pageviews/month do you have on https://console.substack.com/?
@antonio How's SF?
@prologic G’night!
@prologic Silly me, I thought the Conversation button and the hashtag were the same thing, yeah leave it like so.
@prologic Makes more sense to me to link to the Conversation view.
@vain Tuck? πŸ˜•
@prologic I'm asking because I usually find the search view to be incomplete not holding the full conversation when it would make sense that it would. See https://twtxt.net/search?tag=34qplea vs https://twtxt.net/conv/34qplea.
@prologic Why do conversation tags link to https://twtxt.net/search?tag= instead of https://twtxt.net/conv/ ?
@vain Good thing I didn't say "You break it you buy it". πŸ˜›
@prologic I remember encountering an Eliza for the first time, fooled me a little bit at first!
@prologic That's what all bots say! 😝
@prologic @lazarus Don't mind @prologic, he's a bot! πŸ˜›
@adi @prologic Oh, iTunes? πŸ˜€
I think Dua Lipa is really cool.
@prologic Do you go into a music shop and buy some CD-s or how? That's a little bit weird, I just Shazam songs mostly or search YouTube for new music.
Also, been listening and watching the video of Gwen Stefani's new song Let Me Reintroduce Myself.
@prologic I agree, it's very neat technically and very Plan9-ish, I *personally* don't think I'd mount my tabs like that, but I might change my mind.
@prologic I think I was born for work from home. As a side note the recent COVID-19 pandemic reminded me of this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GL9JoH4Sws.
@sjkelleyjr I can't imagine any security issue at this point, not that I'm an expert in security, I just don't want to script my tabs and I usually have few tabs open enough not to warrant scripting.
@vain You break it you fix it!
@sjkelleyjr Congratz! TabFS is pretty cool as a technical implementation, not sure if I'd use it tho.
What's up people?
@vain Cool song!
@prologic "Consider using Alpine for a more feature rich system or any other β€œheavier” / β€œfull featured” distro." πŸ‘… I guess it's a more "feature rich" system compared to ulinux. I run X on OpenBSD and cwm as a simple, clean desktop. I also use their webserver https://man.openbsd.org/httpd.8.
@prologic Simple,** no bloat, "less" but powerful features.
@prologic There's a high change you'll fall in ❀️ with it if you install it.
@prologic Did you play with OpenBSD ever?
@prologic What *other* movie?
@prologic Never used CRUX, looks cool!
@prologic Void Linux is my favorite *GNU* distro.
Considering rewatching Edge of tomorrow now.
Watched The Napoleonic Wars these days, and other history documentaries.
@prologic What distro?
@prologic 😜 I'll surely change it when I'll get the chance.
@prologic Yup, it's a pretty good quality free OpenBSD shell. https://tilde.institute/
@antonio I run https://adi.tilde.institute/. It's pretty cool, admins are friendly, answer package requests.
@prologic @lyxal Morning!
@ionores Yeah, this is the 2nd time for me. I'm surprised by how many things I forgot.
Restarted watching The Blacklist. It was another show I couldn't remember where I left of.
@adi @deadguy @prologic I interpret that as me forcing myself to go to work! πŸ˜„
@deadguy @prologic The Romanian Constitution explicitly forbids forced labor, but that's up to interpretation.
@deadguy @prologic I was under the impression that's dictatorship. πŸ˜›
@deadguy @prologic I'm wondering it that's really work. I'm starting to fall under the impression that *almost* all work is forced work in one way or another.
