@bender@twtxt.net Letās hope your life quality will improve with that single purpose tool. :-D
@prologic@twtxt.net Heck yeah, grats!
@prologic@twtxt.net Like @movq@www.uninformativ.de said, it is a very niche thing. But that has always been a good thing in my opinion. And I do still think so. :-)
yarnd in particular is too heavy for me personally, I just like the simplicity of wacking a file on my server and voilĆ . But other than that, I still support that software. :-)
And I come back to twtxt.net every now and then to read up on conversations that seem to be incomplete in my own client. Like if a new feed appears that I donāt follow (yet). Thatās certainly a convenience that I do enjoy. Thank you for that!
Went on a 20-25km long hike yesterday. Birds were beautifully singing, the lovely smell of freshly cut grass was in the air and the terror of rotary mowers reached my ear constantly. It was a bit cloudy, but the sun peaked through every now and then. Really a wonderful day to be outside. About 21Ā°C and some wind.
@adi@twtxt.net Oh wow, Iām really surprised that it still sounds a lot like Stairway To Heaven. Iām pretty sure I would have gotten that even if I hadnāt read the title. Music-wise of course. Not from the lyrics. :-)
Damn it! My camera battery didnāt charge, so all the nice deer and tad pole in a puddle imagery did not work out. :-( I saw two pairs of ears showing in the grass. Suddenly, three deer took off. One went straight into the strip of trees nearby and back behind me into the woods. The other two ran more into the meadow and then alongside the path I was taking. They unexpectedly overtook me and crossed in front of me to the other pasture. Then they headed back into the forest like rockets. Holy cow, they were super fast. Really amazing to watch. Battery flattended after the second of video I recorded in the beginning.
@bender@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net Thanks mates. Iām not the only one, @xuu@txt.sour.is does, too. :-)
Executing all tests of the online registrations Iām building for the scouts takes now 70 seconds. Initializing a new SQLite database in RAM and creating all the tables for each test case sums up and takes its time. During development cycles I more often resort to the -run flag for go test to specify only one area of tests to be executed. Much more fun this way to quickly go back to writing code.
At least the service layer line coverage is a whopping 99.5%, branch coverage is 93.3% (the latter could still be bumped slightly). However, only 17.6% lines of the web layer are covered (I definitely should increase this by a lot). This still good test base, if I say so myself, came in extremely handy a lot of times when refactoring stuff. Esp. the service layer changed, web not so much. It slows development down quite a lot, thatās for sure. I reckon itās easily five to ten times more effort to come up with useful tests than writing productive code, probably even more. Iām bad at guessing. But the confidence of not breaking stuff is sooo much more valuable. The tests certainly paid off in the past, zero doubt about that.
It takes a lot of discipline to first write all the tests in the service layer before doing the web stuff and finally see it in action and play around. Itās funny that I always have to force myself to do so, but in the end, Iām always happy to have done it exactly like that. It once again worked out very smoothely that way. But something inside me wants to fast forward. I wonder if that irrational part eventually fades away.
Having a code coverage report does make a night a day difference. It actually turns writing tests into a fun game for me. The older I get, the more I do enjoy writing tests. Rest assured, producing productive code is still cooler. :-)
Iām also sooo happy about vim-go. I canāt believe how much that sped up and boosted my development process.
Whoops, 57 minutes later, this message turned out much more elaborated that I initially envisioned. Oh well. ;-)
I just found out about last(1) and lastb(1) while wondering about /var/log/wtmp. This can come in handy! The filenames remain a bit mysterious: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/127211/why-are-utmp-wtmp-and-btmp-called-as-they-are
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh wow! Better not mess up with that responsibility. :-)
@movq@www.uninformativ.de @prologic@twtxt.net Hahaha, thanks for sharing, @bender@twtxt.net! :-D
IBM has realized itās cheaper to buy Hashicorp than to buy Vault licenses
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, things like that can really make one ill.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I canāt think of a single one. Pretty lucky so far.
@bender@twtxt.net Holy cow, congrats on that title. I do have plugged in the more important equipment in a power strip with surge protection. The weird thing was, that only one of the monitors went black for a second. The other one (both are behind surge protection) remained operational the entire time. Maybe EMP? It was closer to the window than the other one.
Speedy recovery, @bender@twtxt.net! Ouch, @movq@www.uninformativ.de!
After a nearby lightning strike one of my screens turned off for a second. That was the signal to call it quits today.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Such piece of shit software makes me want to quit. Esp. if it is just for useless compliance garbage that never helped anybody accomplishing any real improvement. Is it from IBM? We once had to build a threat model with some terrible generator and my goodness, you canāt believe what a myriad of hopelessly useless, wrong entries it produced. Thousands of thousands of lines. At least it was markdown. We basically removed like 99% of its output after reading through every single item. Did this once and refused to touch it ever since. All hand-written now and actually helpful.
@prologic@twtxt.net Speaking of broken mentions, do you want to install a more recent yarns version so that my error log is not spammed anymore with 404s? 8-)
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Zero progress on mine. :-( I still rely on the official twtxt client to download the (main) feed.
Thanks, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! Hahaha, didnāt think of that. :-D Nah, this guy is not creepy, heās just a melting flower snowman. ;-) Rest assured, he was unharmed on the table, you can see him here: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2024-04-21/23.JPG
Jaja, @movq@www.uninformativ.de, immer schƶn aufmerksam der guten SteckdosenprƤsi folgen und im Anschluss in der Exzellenztabelle was eintragen und ausrechnen lassen! :-D Klingt alles recht albern. Ich schƤtz aber mal, dass einem das gar nicht mehr auffƤllt.
@bender@twtxt.net Fenster 11 ā Windows 11; KraftPunkt (or Steckdose) ā PowerPoint; Deppendrehkreuz (awesome translation btw, I had to laugh hard!) ā GitHub.
Went out in the cold and noticed that taking photos half an hour on top of the drafty summit is not the very best idea. Not suprising that I freeze if there is snow. Gloves would have been actually great, I only wore my beanie. But it was a very good afternoon and evening. Looking at the snowmen, there must have been heaps of snow on the ground earlier this day.
I came across several different birds and two deer. 36-38 shows the same one, one meadow further, another deer jumped across the road. That was cool.
The focus often wanted to do its own thing, unfortunately. 25 shows the flatness of the Kaiserbergsteige (literally āEmperor Mountain Steep Roadā).
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Vobis doesnāt ring a bell. I looked them up, but still nope.
Yeah, HDDs arenāt the fastest things in the world. :-)
@movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net Sadly true. :-(
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Interesting. Never came across the term presentation manager in my life, but I also never used OS/2. :-)
Yeah, stopping the scanning thread is more a learning experience than a necessity. The scanning message is hardly visible in your videos. Itās already very quick.
Iām with you, @bender@twtxt.net, weekends are way too short.
