In-reply-to » Can anyone recommend a website builder for dummies? Something my wife could use or anyone not in IT? Something that you can easily export and publish as a static site anywhere? 🤔 I guess it has to be easy to use, WYSIWIG in nature and having some 3rd-party integrations might be nice like Squire for taking payments, etc.

@prologic@twtxt.net I maintain my opinion that’s it’s just not worth avoiding learning HTML, CSS.

They got the Nobel in Physics last year! Just saying…

Also, I think the EU is doing a great job with the recent laws regarding Microsoft and Apple! (Uninstallable default apps, sideloading and USB-C for Apple Products)

In-reply-to » Been playing around a bit with Continue.dev and Ollama.ai in VSCode (which all runs locally). I have to say, Continue.dev is not a bad tool in terms of "utility" and the overall UX is kind of nice. However; I dunno whether I'm just using inferior models like codellama or codellama (See Models), or whether I'm expecting far too much out of these "glorified" token prediction machines, but all this seems to be good for is banging out repetitive keystrokes.

Actually, it’s outputting bullshit most of the times.

@prologic@twtxt.net They suck bad! Artificial stupidity as I said. Real problem with ChatGPT is to discover when it’s actually outputting bullshit because it’s outputting it in a very convincing way, but in the end it’s still bullshit. Maybe that’s why they call it “intelligence”, because he’s good at lying to us.

In-reply-to » I wonder why people didn't settle on XDG_CONFIG_HOME as ~/etc. Makes so much sense!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de

My XDG_STATE_HOME directory doesn’t even exist, no program has created it.

$XDG_STATE_HOME defines the base directory relative to which user-specific state files should be stored. If $XDG_STATE_HOME is either not set or empty, a default equal to $HOME/.local/state should be used.

The $XDG_STATE_HOME contains state data that should persist between (application) restarts, but
that is not important or portable enough to the user that it should be stored in $XDG_DATA_HOME. It may contain:

actions history (logs, history, recently used files, …)

current state of the application that can be reused on a restart (view, layout, open files, undo history, …)

I don’t believe it’s a good idea to wipe it.

$ cat /etc/fstab
...
swap /home/adi/var/cache mfs rw,-s512M,noatime,nosuid,nodev 1 0

and https://dataswamp.org/~solene/2021-12-15-openbsd-mfs-persistency.html for XDG_CACHE_HOME.

In-reply-to » In setting up my own company and it's internal tools and services and supporting infrastructure, the ony thing I haven't figured out how to solve "really well" is Email, Calendar and Contacts 😢 All the options that exist "suck". They suck either in terms of "operational complexity and overheads" or "a poor user experience".

I see this recommended as solution for calendar and contacts https://dataswamp.org/~solene/2023-04-23-calendar-and-contacts-with-radicale.html

@prologic@twtxt.net

What Calendar and Contacts?

I have no experience with calendar and contacts, just email, and it’s really good.

I think we have very different ideas of what “operational complexity” means.

Maybe, what’s your definition?

@prologic@twtxt.net Just use Gmail as an email client, lol “operational complexity”, just configure the thing one time and have it run for years!
