@prologic@twtxt.net so far it’s looking similar to C#, with a few tweaks for Dynamic programming, so not that awful IMO. Let’s see 👀

I’m taking a few courses and my head is hurting now 😵
Dart and Competency-Based Learning (to teach Python to future attorneys)

#goodToKnow

Nice, I found it this morning on HN, and I thought of you and Yarn.

@prologic@twtxt.net Well, I meant that making a whole game on Gopher is a nice challenge. Due to the limitations, the gameplay is weird, and perhaps you won’t play many times. That said, wow, it’s a cool piece of art.

Any thoughts on Snikket.org

@prologic@twtxt.net I think I got the first 3 😀 !

@will@twtxt.net No idea, there are a few directories and rings, but I don’t know of an approximate number
https://tildeverse.org
http://tilde.club/~harper/join.html

I might be applying to this kind of roles and companies.

Any general advice?

@prologic@twtxt.net It’s an amazing implementation, not so intuitive but playable

I have good memories of my grandpa playing Solitaire across many versions of Windows, I hadn’t played in years but I remember the tricks, he

@prologic@twtxt.net I got a bunch of mails today about the PR, I read a few tonight but I’ll have more time tomorrow morning!

@cobra@yn.vern.cc I had no idea it existed. Looks like an appealing and nostalgic hobby project.

What I’ve used is https://tilde.town/wiki/socializing/bbj.html
It has a nice feeling on a terminal based forum, with ‘modern’ technologies behind.

@will@twtxt.net I think I use a different version of the Web, those adblockers and anti-spywares are wonderful.

And I’m posting this on the Web, so…

@mckinley@twtxt.net what problem does Gopher solve?

I’d like to have something like Omnisearch like having a list with fuzzy search, and those pages not being used in more than, let’s say 1 hour, should be archived.

something like Browsing history + Tabs

@will@twtxt.net tabs in the browser have at least 20 years IMO (with Opera)

And in random thoughts, I was watching in the afternoon the history of the Windows Taskbar (in 1995) and the first approach was a tabbed interface. Very interesting

@prologic@twtxt.net Hehe, I’m temporarily using Edge as the Windows’ Safari, while I finish my transition to Firefox, so what can I say? 😅

BTW, it’s also happening with Iridium 2022.04 so I think the problem could happen with all the Chromium-based browsers

@cobra@yn.vern.cc e & ℇ

@darch@neotxt.dk Edge 106.0.1370.52
In Firefox (Win) 105.0.3 it’s looking OK

@akoizumi@social.kyoko-project.wer.ee that’s your secret!

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m learning Dart/Flutter, but I’ll do my best :)

Tip of the day
Give yourself permission to be bored

@prologic@twtxt.net @darch@neotxt.dk I’m also seeing the right side cropped when you have logout (so it should be the server’s default theme):

@darch@neotxt.dk look like a long but interesting video, thanks for sharing

@darch@neotxt.dk indeed!

The term "Scuttlebutt" comes from the original water-cooler gossip, and has nautical roots. Unlike most data protocols, Scuttlebutt does not work on the assumption of constant connectivity and centralized services: Data is stored locally, and synchronized between contacts (or friends, to use the social network terminology). Data is also encrypted, hence Scuttlebutt is also referred to as SSB, or Secure Scuttlebutt.

I guess this is only important in third and second world countries. When you are traveling to remote places, and can’t be permanently connected for, we say, 15 bucks a month.

On creating your own ‘Internet’
YouTube - It’s time to build our own Internet

@prologic@twtxt.net Thanks!

@ocdtrekkie@twtxt.net The WebAuthn token is not working for your network?

@prologic@twtxt.net hehe, I think I found what’s happening backstage, I managed to show a spinner infinitely not erasing the User Token, but I need to add an error like “Check your Internet connection”.

That said, it seems I can’t push my progress to the Git repo, perhaps I’m missing some permission?

If you are using CloudFlare and want to try or implement FIDO2/WebAuthn

https://blog.cloudflare.com/making-phishing-defense-seamless-cloudflare-yubico/

@prologic@twtxt.net I need that :)

@prologic@twtxt.net Yep, it’s something tricky about coding mobile apps. What I’ve done is having backup URLs like https://1.1.1.1 or those that Google and Android use to redirect to Public Access points (I can’t recall the URLs now, I’ll what to look for them) to check if the device has connection.

About Goryon, I think the app wouldn’t have to delete/forget the API token until it actually knows the token is invalid 🤔

I’ve seen that if you open the app when you are not connected to the Internet for some reason (for instance I use the aeroplane mode a lot) it forgets the login info.

Other than that, the session usually lasts a lot (I haven’t tested it but I could say that lasts more than a week)

@prologic@twtxt.net it’s working now

@will@twtxt.net I use this one https://frantic.im/project-todo/

And I connect the TODO comment in some random file, to the TODO list to remember where it is.

And searching for open TODOs in the project is usually something good to do every week or so

I switched from Sublime to VS Code in 2018 (?), due to some errors on Sublime 3.
It’s a bittersweet feeling. Sublime ‘invented’ that UX and Atom/VS Code took that innovation, offering a free alternative. The Show all commands bar (Ctrl-Shift-P) is just amazing, easy to use and useful.

Moral feelings away, I have good productivity with VS Code, I don’t have to install many plugins, and it’s quick to start from 0. In a pragmatic way VS Code just works.

I’m also learning vim and nvim and it has been a complex learning curve, but I think it’s going to help me as vim is installed almost everywhere. Perhaps helix is going to become an opinionated alternative for VS Code users soon, no idea.

As they say, a quick way to get a good product is “Standing on the shoulders of giants”, and sometimes using those ideas/stealing is part of that standing.

@darch@neotxt.dk +1

@prologic@twtxt.net need any help? I don’t master flutter/dart, but I train my team on publishing for Play Store and App Store 👀

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci yep, I found same errors here

but that’s difficult in countries like mine where you can get data plans with free access to the mainstream social media, Meta, TT, and such, obviously subsidized by ads and payed to the carriers.

I don’t want to only comply, but I can’t find an easy way to fix that. Any ideas ?

@prologic@twtxt.net hmmm, I feel you are angry so I won’t play as devil’s advocate.
What I can add, something controversial, is that those huge companies like power and controlling who can access to the info is a source of power.

Something that disappoints me is that they use open standards for a while (XMPP for FB Messenger, RSS, email) and when it’s not convenient anymore they stop those APIs.
I understand they need to make money for their investors, but… I don’t know what to say than, we could decide not to be the product.

@movq@uninformativ.de Merci beaucoup !

Something I don’t get is having different quote symbols like Gänsefüßchen („ “), Guillemets (« »), why?, ancient language makers…

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Disclaimer: I dislike open workspaces a lot mainly due to interruptions and excessive noise. Are those cabins isolating the noise enough ?

I don’t know what to think of the transparent walls.

Also I have S/MIME on emmanuel

@prologic@twtxt.net That’s an interesting problem to solve… In addition to how to store them securely.

I guess salty.im doesn’t allow to send files. What about an email with OpenPGP to eapl in the server gemugami.com
Another option? Matrix? Keybase? Encrypting the key with my public key? Access to a private git repo with my public key?

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci this video is gold, thanks for sharing!

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci thanks dude! I don’t know what to expect, but it’s my alma mater and the ‘best school in town’ so I hope everything will go smoothly

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci
As I was discussing on the evil microblogging, with a friend fan of ASM, real programming doesn’t exist, you make your own microprocessors and write the machine code in binary with electric signals… Hehe, just joking

I said to my friend, pick your abstractions, that will become real for you (and I remind Matrix, when Morpheus asks Neo “what’s real?” )

as a friend told me: What makes sense tomorrow is not making sense while you are learning it. But you won’t know it until you master it.

Weird feeling, but as a professor and as a permanent student, I think that’s how it is. What do you think?

I remember a friend from the work, who studied German for 3 years, and when we were there he was unable to talk with a girl. Weird… And me, with my 2 months learning, only could say a few words to random people.

It’s happening similar with vim I’m practicing 30 minutes a day, and I hope in a few months I’ll be able to barely edit a file with the confidence of VS Code/Sublime
