@prologic Because all of the other implementations GNU, BSD, https://core.suckless.org/sbase/ implement them as single binaries and because that's how most UNIX programs are implemented. The philosophy says "Make each program do one thing well", that's one program that does all things.
@prologic I'm used to git, used it a lot, but the options, OMG π²!
@prologic @thewismit I understand how it works, but I *personally* perceive it as a little bit weird.
@thewismit @prologic I believe uLinux is cool, but tbh Iβm not a big fan of busybox, itβs a little bit weird how they bundled everything in one executable, but I understand itβs the only viable option.
@thewismit I'm "trying" to do as little as possible! π Less everything! Less code, less abstractions, less files, less dependencies, less "techs". Minimal stuff required to solve duplication basically and minimal stuff to get a site up.
@lyse Not much it only snowed mostly, maybe 2-3 cm but not everywhere.
@sjkelleyjr I'm subscribed to Console via e-mail but I prefer finding out about new issues here.
@ionores Enjoy! Kinda late but pic? What brand?
@sjkelleyjr A sponsor for my project, a banner just like yours.
@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. π
@ionores @antonio I'm new to Signal also, haha, how does Session compare to Signal?
@prologic Is this in response to Signal having problems? π
@lyse \n> It took me quite long to wrap my head around on how to use this properly (maybe I was just too tired).\n\nNo sure if problem is my explanation or UNIX thingy. The content is pretty dense.\n\n> What does the βuppβ in βupp{html,xml,css,β¦}β stand for? βppβ references the preprocessor, but the βuβ?\n\nupp = unpreprocessed. Makes sense? π\n\n> Btw, the βmanβ directory in the File Hierarchy section misses the ββ in the tree.\n\nNice catch!\n\n> A little bit more complex example would certainly also help\n\nhttps://mkws.sh/mkws/HOWTO might add this page up again.=
@antonio Mine is also having difficulties.
@prologic Doesn't you body tell you when it feels tired? π
@prologic How about an app to remind you to go to the toilet?
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 In order: Upwork, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, Warframe, Reddit, Three dots?, Bluetooth, NFC, Vibrate?, Wi-Fi, GSM Signal, Battery.
@prologic Not sure about the others, but I personally was aware it! π
@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 Did you drink all of it today?
@vain I don't believe in "shoulds" or "should nots", I believe "is to be preferred" *is to be preferred* π. Or "it's a good idea", or "is recommended".
@prologic Looks pretty cool! Really have to remember it! Starred!
@adi @antonio And rather keep JavaScript on the frontend only as an *optional* layer.
@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.
@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?
I initially found the sh syntax disgusting, with time I came to enjoy it to be honest.
@ionores Yeah, we've been blessed with cheap high speed Internet, monthly rent cost is pretty accurate. (Romanian here)
@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. π
@prologic It's just a reply, don't think a lot of people saw it π and that guy is great with links!
@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 Good thing I didn't say "You break it you buy it". π
@prologic I remember encountering an Eliza for the first time, fooled me a little bit at first!
@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.
@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.
@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.
@prologic "Consider using Alpine for a more feature rich system or any other βheavierβ / βfull featuredβ distro." π
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 β€οΈ with it if you install it.
