↳ In-reply-to » @lyse (Do you want to be linked on that page? Do you want your name to be there at all? 🤔)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I really like your style of writing, btw. It’s much calmer and less aggressive then mine. :-) When I turned my bullet points into paragraphs, I got a bit mad in the process.

Sure, feel free to include anything you want. Regarding citing, this is where twtxt falls short in my opinion. Especially with feed rotation, classic links die quickly. Message hashes only help so much. Nobody outside the twtxt universe knows how to deal with them. So, not perfect for inclusion on a web page. Linking to a thread or message on some yarnd instance might be the more user-friendly option. But the disadvantage is that it’s “just” a mirror, not the primary or original source. In all reality, this could be considered splitting hairs, though.

I should have probably written a proper article. That would have given me time to review the result more carefully, too. ;-) Perhaps that’s something for the future. But honestly, I’m not sure if I really want to waste my time and energy on that subject. So many other fun or useless things come to mind right away that I could do instead. 8-)

So, yeah, do whatever feels best to you. I don’t mind being cited or linked, but I also don’t mind not to be cited or not to be linked to. :-D Not a helpful answer, I know. Sorry. ;-) But anyway, thanks for asking, mate! I do appreciate it.

To finish my thought, linking to my frontpage is probably also useless, since I deliberatly do not have a table of contents there. In fact, my entire frontpage is rather silly.

Launch HN: Runtime (YC P26) – Sandboxed coding agents for everyone on a team
Hey HN, We’re Gus and Carlos from Runtime ( https://runtm.com). We’re building infra that lets your whole team (including non-engineers) ship with Claude Code, Codex, and other agents without engineering having to handhold every session.

After Mentum (YC S21) was acquired, I personally shipped 4 full-stack products in 3 months using coding agents. When I tried to roll the same workflow out to the rest of the team, it fell apart: Most PRs were unme … ⌘ Read more

I completely forgot, I saw my very first badger in the wild the day before yesterday. :-) That was absolutely cool! <3

I heard something comparatively large rustling in the bush right next to me and thought that it must be dear. Naturally, I stopped and tried to see what’s in there. The rustling went up the bank and it suddenly came down again towards the road I was on. That’s when I first layed eyes on it and identified it as a badger. For a split second I thought that it’s going to get after me and was ready to get running. But it just hadn’t noticed me yet. When it eventually spotted me, it froze for a few seconds and ran off uphill. My camera took too long to boot, so it was already gone by the time the photo machine was good to go.

As an enjoyer of delightfully bad graphic design, found on most Czech village center cork boards, I’m sad to see the stolen clipart and badly cropped watermarked stock images, gradually replaced with AI slop.

This is far from a serious rant, but generating images of my kind being telepathically hit with sharp rocks, surely gives me a right to complain.

So far these seem the most prominent slop categories, seem to be…

Architecture slop:

  1. find a sketch of what an old building looked like

  2. generate an AI version, without correcting any of the perspective errors - this one is diagonally levitating

  3. generate a recreation of the buildings demise - after going through the AI, for the second time, it is now a completely different building

Moralizing slop:

History slop:

This year for some reason or another, I decided to purchase an Ocarina, I’ve been practising a fair bit every now and again, basically during work breaks and sometimes in the afternoon / evenings (not enough to annoy the family 🤣) Anyhoo, that was 3 months ago, since then I’ve built up a bit of a Repertoire:

  • Silent Night
  • My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean
  • Amazing Grace
  • O Holy Night
  • Happy Birthday
  • Greensleeves
  • Scarborough Fair
  • She’ll Be Coming ’Round the Mountain

I’ve now decided to purchase a slightly better quality Ocarina, the one I originally bought was a cheap $28 one, I’m now upgrading to a more professional instrument worth about $80 – Wish my luck 🍀

↳ In-reply-to » @lyse I don’t know a number (wait, why can’t I google a Wetterbericht but only a Wettervorhersage?!), but it was enough for public transportation to shut down. 😅 I think I saw around five trucks on the side of the road who couldn’t continue, too icy. Some cars stranded.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Found some numbers now, they’re saying it was around 10cm in 3-4 hours. I don’t know, felt like more. 😂 The forecast wasn’t really good either, now that I think about it. They said there’s going to be some snow, okay, fine, but then, boom.

Haha, that old ad is lovely. Those days are over. 🤣

** Bicross **
I made a game. I’ve written about it in passing a few times, but here is an honest to goodness intro to it!

Bicross is 3 versions of the same basic game,

  • Bicross, is a zen-mode version of the game.
  • Bicross RPG, is an RPG version of the game where you can earn power ups, and build up hearts and stuff.
  • Bicross Daily, is very similar to the RPG version, but everyone who plays on a given … ⌘ Read more

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh, so just half a millimeter then! :-D That’s plenty these days for everything to shut down, I’m afraid. If only the same élan was still in action as back then:

And here I am watching Mattias Björnström’s gas pedal freezing at full throttle around -40°C. Well, falls apart and gets stuck.

I’m not an expert on this subject at all, but I reckon an automatic in addition with all its sensors is much worse than a manual one. All wheel drive, studded tires and diff locked is what one wants in icy situations. :-D

“A fotógrafa alemã Alice Brill, que desde o ano 2000 tem sua coleção de 14 mil negativos sob a guarda do IMS, trouxe a fotografia na bagagem quando veio da Alemanha para o Brasil, fugindo do nazismo. Alice tinha 14 anos quando a família aqui desembarcou em 1934 para encontrar a mãe, que viera na frente, e trazia na bagagem “uma minicâmera Agfa, tipo caixão”, que fazia fotos 3 x 4 e com a qual registrou suas impressões da viagem pela Espanha e Itália, que precedeu a aprovação dos papéis de imigração. A câmera era presente do pai, Erich Brill, um pintor viajante e artista plástico que, dois anos depois, não tendo se firmado em São Paulo, voltou à Alemanha e morreu em 1942, num campo de concentração. Alice seguiu seus passos profissionais com firmeza, fazendo-se artista plástica, gravadora e ensaísta, além de fotógrafa.”

I’m trying to implement configurable key bindings in tt. Boy, is parsing the key names into tcell.EventKeys a horrible thing. This type consists of three information:

  1. maybe a predefined compound key sequence, like Ctrl+A
  2. maybe some modifiers, such as Shift, Ctrl, etc.
  3. maybe a rune if neither modifiers are present nor a predefined compound key exists

It’s hardcoded usage results in code like this:

func (t *TreeView[T]) InputHandler() func(event *tcell.EventKey, setFocus func(p tview.Primitive)) {
    return t.WrapInputHandler(func(event *tcell.EventKey, setFocus func(p tview.Primitive)) {
        switch event.Key() {
        case tcell.KeyUp:
            t.moveUp()
        case tcell.KeyDown:
            t.moveDown()
        case tcell.KeyHome:
            t.moveTop()
        case tcell.KeyEnd:
            t.moveBottom()
        case tcell.KeyCtrlE:
            t.moveScrollOffsetDown()
        case tcell.KeyCtrlY:
            t.moveScrollOffsetUp()
        case tcell.KeyTab, tcell.KeyBacktab:
            if t.finished != nil {
                t.finished(event.Key())
            }
        case tcell.KeyRune:
            if event.Modifiers() == tcell.ModNone {
                switch event.Rune() {
                case 'k':
                    t.moveUp()
                case 'j':
                    t.moveDown()
                case 'g':
                    t.moveTop()
                case 'G':
                    t.moveBottom()
                }
            }
        }
    })
}

This data structure is just awful to handle and especially initialize in my opinion. Some compound tcell.Keys are mapped to human-readable names in tcell.KeyNames. However, these names always use - to join modifiers, e.g. resulting in Ctrl-A, whereas tcell.EventKey.Name() produces +-delimited strings, e.g. Ctrl+A. Gnaarf, why this asymmetry!? O_o

I just checked k9s and they’re extending tcell.KeyNames with their own tcell.Key definitions like crazy: https://github.com/derailed/k9s/blob/master/internal/ui/key.go Then, they convert an original tcell.EventKey to tcell.Key: https://github.com/derailed/k9s/blob/b53f3091ca2d9ab963913b0d5e59376aea3f3e51/internal/ui/app.go#L287 This must be used when actually handling keyboard input: https://github.com/derailed/k9s/blob/e55083ba271eed6fc4014674890f70c5ed6c70e0/internal/ui/tree.go#L101

This seems to be much nicer to use. However, I fear this will break eventually. And it’s more fragile in general, because it’s rather easy to forget the conversion or one can get confused whether a certain key at hand is now an original tcell.Key coming from the library or an “extended” one.

I will see if I can find some other programs that provide configurable tcell key bindings.
