Watched the third installment of Andor for last night. That was some intense story telling. When it finished I was shaking from how much it had brought me into it all. Just wow.

In-reply-to » To the parents or teachers: How do you teach kids to program these days? 🤔

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org hey pascal bro! My first coding class was with an old Borland Turbo Pascal. I made my own little window manager for the assignments for class.

The teacher didn’t appreciate it much since I had to print out the code to turn it in. My Yatzee game was a stack of pages. 🤪

In-reply-to » Hi, So i made a little MVP registry crawler tool for twtxt. It now has a basic UI to play with. It has a somewhat full history back to about 2018-ish. Plus some interesting bits that were timestamped to earlier.

it adds users by finding them in feeds mentioning or following. Your URL is already added.

Hmm i am not sure how you got the URL with users at the end..

Registry format is its own thing. It takes the regular feed and appends nick \t uri \t to it. Its something that existed before yarn got big. There is still a bit of work but I will put together a ui for it to make it easier to view and navigate.

Interesting.. so running into an issue where queries only return a partal set of rows if i run in a docker image built from scratch. i have to add the debian root image for it to work. I wonder what file is missing that the root has?

In-reply-to » I need to figure out a way to back off requests to feeds that don't update often.

Hmm I think I can come up with some kind of heuristic.. Maybe if the feed is requested and hasn’t updated in the last few mins it adds to the queue. So the next time it will be fresh.

if it hasn’t updated in a while so i put the request rate to once a week it will take some time before i see an update if it happens today.

I need to import my yarn cache. It’s sitting at about 1.5G in registry format. That should make things interesting…

I haven’t had one since the before times of COVID. I am not sure if my company will have them again for the near future.
