Home of Bender Rodriguez. Get off my lawn!

And here is one of my many nuggets of wisdom: "Yeah, well, I'm gonna go build my own theme park. With blackjack and hookers! In fact, forget the park."

In-reply-to » @movq Unfortunately I'm on vacation from the 26th Nov to 7th Dec in another country, just relaxing, etc and taking a break from ya know, the long ~50+hr weeks of a demanding job. Over the xmas break I'm taking a few days, mostly just over xmas, so yeah I'll try to participate in Advent of Code again, but I'm not confident I'll get much further than I have in the past years. I do always find it quite fun though! I'll do 'em in Go again of course 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net you should do it in PHP, or RoR. It is supposed to be a challenge after all, no? :’-D

@sorenpeter@darch.dk if you can, could you directly link the video in which you presented? I tried searching for you in all of today’s videos but failed.

In-reply-to » I guess I should setup some kind of past-bin or something, I bet somebody's already angry about them last couple of long twts 😅 Sorry, not sorry! but I'll try to fix that.

This got my thinking. If I remember correctly, @prologic@twtxt.net ran a pastie on mills.io not long ago. I believe it was one he even coded himself! Do you still run that, James?

I prefer the code here, than having to go to another place to see it. :-P Honestly, I do. What you have posted is shorter than most of @abucci@anthony.buc.ci’s twtxts. :-D

In-reply-to » I’m going to have a pizza and there’s nothing you can do about it. 🍕

@movq@www.uninformativ.de but what kind of pizza? :-D We get pizza once a month, specifically on Fridays (and, of course, we are not alone). Lately we have been buying Pizza Hut’s “tavern style”, everything in it, large pizzas (well, just one). Thinking of it makes me hungry! :-)

In-reply-to » I don’t think calling the various PHP files making up “Timeline” a “Yarn pod” is accurate.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com LOL. All good mate.

I didn’t mean as if I was perceiving the use of Yarn to be malicious, but rather not accurate, and perhaps misleading, or confussing. But I got it when Soren explained it. He used yarn (lower case) after twtxt, because at some point there were considerations to call the “evolved” twtxt, with the several additions/enhancements, “yarn”. After all, current twtxt/yarn has moved beyond the original twtxt.

In-reply-to » @prologic, editing the profile in any way (and saving it, of course) is stripping out the \u2028 from the description. Also, could the description field be changed to a textarea instead? Preferably to one who will "understand" new lines, and convert them to \u2028 automatically?

@prologic@twtxt.net I just realised this might not be accurate. Looks like “Settings” is missing whatever you added to “Profile” to show the line breaks, which made me believe the \u2028 were being stripped on save. That might not be the case.

A heads up, so you know where to look.

@prologic@twtxt.net I disagree on that definition. A “Yarn Pod” is this specific software. If you are fine with anyone creating something else, who does a similar task, and calling it “Yarn”, then… (shrugs). Now “pod”, well, whatever, right?

In-reply-to » @aelaraji icons at the top are badly organised while on mobile. About the speed, that’s using a shoddy PHP code, it would be slow even when running in a quantum computer. :’-D

@eapl.me@eapl.me 100% would, but I don’t know PHP. I can help testing, and offering ideas. I read somewhere you want to write a remake, right?

One of the things the current model is missing is templating… I think. Maybe start by abstracting that from the code?
