@bender@twtxt.net Amen and al ha 😂🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Haha 😂 It was such good beer 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net maybe they should dedicate one of their advent days to make sure their site is responsive. 😂

I see beer, and I upvote. I see “amazinf” beer, and I am thirsty already, and it’s not even 07:00! 😂

Prof. Bigode mandou na outra rede:

“Lamento informar o falecimento do matemático catalão Claudi Alsina (1952-2025), foi dos maiores popularizadores da Matemática da España e do mundo. Alsina conhecido por seu humor refinado tinha uma vasta cultura, doutorou-se em Matemática pela Universidade de Barcelona e ao longo de sua vida acadêmica aproximou a Matemática de outras áreas do conhecimento, em especial a Arquitetura e o Design, fez parte da equipe que estudou os projetos de Gaudí para a reconstrução da Sagrada Família de Barcelona. Alsina era professor catedrático Universidade Politécnica da Catalunha, onde se aposentou, autor de mais de 50 livros sobre Matemática Recreativa, Cultura Matemática, Matemática para o Ensino Superior e para a Formação de Professores.
Sou “bi-neto acadêmico” de Alsina que foi orientador de meus orientadores (de doutorado) e desde que o conheci há cerca de 30 anos tenho me inspirado em seu trabalho.
Para quem sabe do que estou falando, Alsina tinha número de Erdős = 2.”

For those visiting Hanoi in the Old Quarters that are beer snobs like me; highly recommend this place called Local Craft Beer 🤩

Found this place in Hanoi in Vietnam 🥳 Amazinf beer!!! 🍺

completely untested as i have no remote way of running mu code from Vietnam 🤣

AoC Day #1 solution (mu): https://gist.mills.io/prologic/d3c22bcbc22949939b715a850fe63131

Hmmmm the AoC site is not mobile friendly 😢 Can someone post the puzzles as Twts? 🤣

The most interesting part about mu is that the language is actually self-hosted and written in itself. There is a stage zero compound written and go on a stage one compiler written in mu

Thinking about doing Advent of Code in my own tiny language mu this year.

mu is:

• Dynamically typed
  
• Lexically scoped with closures
  
• Has a Go-like curly-brace syntax
  
• Built around lists, maps, and first-class functions
  

Key syntax:

• Functions use fn and braces:
  

fn add(a, b) {
    return a + b
}

• Variables use := for declaration and = for assignment:
  

x := 10
x = x + 1

• Control flow includes if / else and while:
  

if x > 5 {
    println("big")
} else {
    println("small")
}

while x < 10 {
    x = x + 1
}

• Lists and maps:
  

nums := [1, 2, 3]
nums[1] = 42

ages := {"alice": 30, "bob": 25}
ages["bob"] = ages["bob"] + 1

Supported types:

• int
  
• bool
  
• string
  
• list
  
• map
  
• fn
  
• nil
  

mu feels like a tiny little Go-ish, Python-ish language — curious to see how far I can get with it for Advent of Code this year. 🎄

Oh dear god 😱 The level of pollution on Hanoi is insane 🥺 I can’t stop coughing outside 🤯

The https://pyscript.com “platform” for hosting/serving and sharing #pyscript projects seems very cool… I wish they had a “download project” button to make it easy to move your project elsewhere. As they seem to be moving towards some “paid tier features”, making it easy to take everything out would be nice, would feel less like putting on a risk of being inadvertently locked in.

@prologic@twtxt.net pretty neat looking boat. We don’t see boats like this around here. It looks to be made specifically to resemble an older boat.

@prologic@twtxt.net pretty cool! I like these, wish there was a way (I am sure there is, but not for tourists) to go to the top. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s also a quite clever approach. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Lol, these sails on that boat! :-D

Sharing some photos of our Vietnam trip so far…

@bender@twtxt.net You are so right 🤣

So, is there anyone here doing stuff with #InventFramework?

https://invent-framework.github.io/

#invent #pyscript #education #eduComp

Conheço aqui alguém que fez modding à sua Nintendo Switch? Eu tenho uma das de primeira geração (que tanto quanto percebi são facilmente hackaveis) mas não sei por onde começar.

Se alguém me puder indicar o que ler, há aqui uma família que ficaria bem agradecida!

Day 1 was surprisingly finnicky. A lot of people got it wrong, apparently. Me too. 🤣

https://movq.de/v/488136b4ae/day01%2Dblurred.jpg

@prologic@twtxt.net don’t seek the problems. If they exist, they will show at your doorstep. Hahahaha! Anyway, shame on me, I should be sleeping, so I ought to.

@bender@twtxt.net No, but if there’s a problem i want to know about it so i can address it 😆

@prologic@twtxt.net not every twtxt expects engagement. 😅

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Hmmm? 🧐

The YAML forbidden knowledge of yarnd

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I want to see them too! 🙈

@movq@www.uninformativ.de great video. I don’t agree with everything, especially the modern websites highlighted as not that bad, but definitely agree, with the main point. https://youtu.be/2z7kVH9xePM

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe They did their own thing at first, but from version 6 onward, it’s also just Chromium.

“The Internet Used To Be A Place”

@movq@www.uninformativ.de your reply got me almost ROFLMAO IRL. It drew a laudable laugh, for sure! 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net geez, a simple “I don’t wanna” would suffice. 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Ah, god damnit. 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de yeah, you fetched it too quickly, it was edited seconds after picking the wrong image. LOL. Which brings us back in a whole, huge circle, to twtxt edits, and how to handle them. 😅

@thecanine@twtxt.net At least it’s all chromium 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Lots of things stop me 🤣 crappy wifi, no international roaming, no remote access (by design) just to name a few 😆

@prologic@twtxt.net Nothing stops you from programming while in Vietnam. 😏😈😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh damn ! I’m on holidays in Ciwtnam 🤣 I’ll be late to the party !

Advent of Code 2025 starts tomorrow. 🥳🎄

This year, I’m going to use Python 1 on SuSE Linux 6.4, writing the code on my trusty old Pentium 133 with its 64 MB of RAM. No idea if that old version of Python will be fast enough for later puzzles. We’ll see.

Image

@bender@twtxt.net Hmm, something’s weird with that post:

https://movq.de/v/cf64f3a625/s.png

😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Damn. That was stupid of me. I should have posted examples using 2026-03-01 as cutoff date. 😂

In my actual test suite, everything uses 2027-01-01 and then I have this, hoping that that’s good enough. 🥴

def test_rollover():
    d = jenny.HASHV2_CUTOFF_DATE
    assert len(jenny.make_twt_hash(URL, d - timedelta(days=7), TEXT)) == 7
    assert len(jenny.make_twt_hash(URL, d - timedelta(seconds=3), TEXT)) == 7
    assert len(jenny.make_twt_hash(URL, d - timedelta(seconds=2), TEXT)) == 7
    assert len(jenny.make_twt_hash(URL, d - timedelta(seconds=1), TEXT)) == 7
    assert len(jenny.make_twt_hash(URL, d, TEXT)) == 12
    assert len(jenny.make_twt_hash(URL, d + timedelta(seconds=1), TEXT)) == 12
    assert len(jenny.make_twt_hash(URL, d + timedelta(seconds=2), TEXT)) == 12
    assert len(jenny.make_twt_hash(URL, d + timedelta(seconds=3), TEXT)) == 12
    assert len(jenny.make_twt_hash(URL, d + timedelta(days=7), TEXT)) == 12

(In other words, I don’t care as long as it’s before 2027-01-01. 😏😅)

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh, cool! Can we see the results? :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Sweeet! 🥳 enjoy your holiday!

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe What do you mean by that? 🧐 Clients don’t care about the order of twts in a feed. For display clients usually sort by timestamp.

Posting in anachronistic order, hah!

Got back into drawing! :)
I also made a couple (digital) collages today. Huge achievements

@bender@twtxt.net Yeah. something i’m trying to avoid in this 2nd attempt 🤞

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I see problems with that, yes. Case in point:

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah, it is only Manton (with which I don’t see eye to eye) for now. I am simply anticipating the issue, rather than experiencing it fully right now. If efforts continue on this direction, you see what I am writing about, right?

@kiwu@twtxt.net I see. I have no experience on the matter, sadly. :-( I am sure you can find plenty of recommendations online. Beware of anything below $100 (you will find plenty of cheap, but they are, indeed, cheap in the whole sense of the word). I’d say, a decent one will start around $250-$300, and up.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Gemini agrees. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Judging by the BRG and BIDV buildings, I conclude this is Hồ Hoàn Kiếm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ho%C3%A0n_Ki%E1%BA%BFm_Lake

there’s also a constant veil of what I believe to be cold dust in the air and smog 😢

this is apparently a famous lake in Hanoi city in Vietnam. Don’t know what it’s called though.

@kiwu@twtxt.net I’ve no idea about regulations in your area, but over here there are different taxation rules for video and photo cameras. Hence, manufacturers limit the video recording time of photo cameras typically to half an hour, so that they don’t classify as video cameras with their higher taxes.

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net Worked out perfectly for me, too! :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Tada! There you once hope for your flight and ride to be delayed and then of course they are right on time! :-D You gotta wait either way. ;-) Looks like you got some good drinks, though.

Yeah, how? We are facing this very problem.

We have arrived at our first hotel. but check-in isn’t till 2PM 🤣 We arrived at 12:45PM 😆

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe That’s the one 😆
