I’m so happy it’s not Rick Astley’s song. I 100% expected you to fool us.

No, I just don’t like holidays that are being abused by companies to make a buck. That goes for Christmas as well.

The Summer Holidays don’t have that issue.

Easy as is.

Also, Valentine’s Day is not even a holiday, idiot 😂

Reason is always “unmoderated” despite some of the banned subreddits being fully moderated.

Well, that’s a lie, because /r/programming still has mods. Pretty sure they did nothing in the last 10 years. I guess it’s because the sub wasn’t NSFW, I guess.

NPM

Nginx-Proxy-Manager. Got it.

I didn’t read the parent comment well enough and was wondering what the Node Package Manager had to do with anything 😂

vscode with the built-in Emmet support.

Emmet isn’t intimidating, unless you don’t know CSS, in which case it is extremely intimidating.

a+b:
<a href=""></a><b></b>

a>b:
<a href=""><b></b></a>

a*2:
<a href=""></a><a href=""></a>

div.yeet:
<div class="yeet"></div>

A combination:
a>b+i*2.dollah:
<a href=""><b></b><i class="dollah"></i><i class="dollah"></i></a>

That’s 99% of what you need to know to get started with Emmet.

Anyway, I used to write 100% hand-written HTML, but switched to using Hugo because: Go’s built-in Templating language I knew from working with K8S, build-times are sub-second, and I can write a page in either Markdown or HTML, whichever I need (or even mix in some HTML in the Markdown!)

Because of hugo I don’t need to mess around with repeating parts (like the nav menu).

Only downsides:

• it strips the comments, which I would’ve loved to leave in for people to read
• the formatting is my favorite, so I format with prettier before committing

I use git submodules to have the public/ folder be my Github Pages host repo, so I can just muck about locally, while I do a rebuild (which changes the files in the submodule). Only after a commit, I’ll effectively publish the website.

Check out the website (mostly for the HTML - the articles are… meh): https://thaumatorium.com/ (no trackers, so no Cookiewall nonsense either :D)

I’m late to the party, but I’ve categorized them by year. If I feel nostalgic, I just browse the top of the list.

BlueSky actually is federated, AFAIK: https://docs.bsky.app/docs/advanced-guides/federation-architecture

It does use its own protocol (AT instead of ActivityPub)

Can I slap a decorator on a Bash function? I love my @retry(...) (via tenacity, even if it’s a bit wordy).

Basically a wrapper to run rust scripts right from the command line.

Isn’t that just Python? :v

I currently have it sorted by year (I used some year date from Steam, but that isn’t super accurate as I think it’s the date it was added to Steam). I think I used Depressurizer?

I used to have it sorted by the Steam score, IIRC.

Because rules are meant to be broken :3

(I just recreated the original because that one is jpegged to hell and back. I used draw.io (used the original image as background), then exported as SVG, jammed it through SVGOMG, and then let ChatGPT do one last optimization because the font stuff was a bit too much, removed the whitespace and comments - boom: 700kb SVG)

Space Marine 2 is sharp AF BTW. Also not Unreal Engine, but the Swarm Engine, BTW.

The texture detail in that game is crazy, even though you normally don’t see most of it because it’s too small.

It also has a really fun gameplay loop, that I haven’t felt in a while. Good shit.

A better keyboard for tablets. Can’t “swype” with the current one, and the default settings feel weird. Made me not like Linux on my tablet. It’s not bad, but it’s simply not as good as on Windows.

Dang, finally! Alas, I’m off to bed, but I’ll have to try it out tomorrow to see what the hype was all about.

Didn’t even know there was a part 1, but this looks like a hoot!

Luck should be taken into account. Once you are done with your degree, perhaps the market will have recovered a bit, because I’m hearing a lot of negative feedback lately.

edit: If you’re not sure, you can take a peek at this graph of free MIT YouTube courses. Choose something interesting on the right, then figure out where to start on the left to get to your chosen point. Each course can easily take about 100 hours, which sounds a lot, but if you do them you can take that knowledge and more easily extrapolate information in the future.

Stow has been pretty amazing for my dotfiles repo. Being able to just stow adapt <folder> and git reset --hard to overwrite an existing config on a new machine is just so nice.

I’ll be sure to check this out!

and that’s face value to you?

It is face value. How did he gain those billion? “Embrace, extend, and extinguish”. Never forget.

In camp “BG still has 4240000x times more money than me”.

Not to mention he executed the “trolley problem meme” by killing a million to save a million. Now, he did not literally kill people (unlike some other CEOs I’ve heard about), but he did fuck over a ton of people, all in the name of “Business” (which is PR/propaganda for “greed”).
