with some scripting, I could probably use my upcoming !weewiki !zettelkasten as a drop-in replacement for !twtxt, and then generate the twtxt file. however, I think I am going to keep them separate for the time being. let them both grow to serve different purposes.

finally finished all the initial ugen documentation. everything now has a sentence or two. the generated page can be accessed from the ugen wiki page [[/proj/monolith/wiki/ugens]] #updates #monolith

I’m hoping to build a phasor-to-clock signal generator, which divides up a phasor into an arbitrary number of ticks. Using a global phasor as a global clock would allow for interesting polyrhythms, as well more flexible precision in sequencers. It’s also closer to how human-based conducting works. #halfbakedideas

the fe language by rxi would make for a great frontend for generating txtvm code maybe #halfbakedideas

This morning I had this really weird notion of building a generative podcast complete with musical interludes and asemic speech using a speech synthesizer. It’d be interesting to have “interviews” with two distinct vocal characters. #halfbakedideas

It turns out that fts5 is enabled by default on SQLite! My twtxt2sqlite generator has been updated to use fts5. Now I can do full text search on all my twtxt tweets. I have implemented a related-tweets box in the !twtxt_playground as a proof-of-concept. More info on fts5 can be found at [[https://www.sqlite.org/fts5.html]].

Inline Janet means I should be able to make calls to functions defined in the config file. For example, the =ref= function is how I usually make wiki reference links. This @!(ref “wiki_index” “link right here”)!@ should take you to my automatically generated weewiki index of all the wiki pages.

Dear lazyweb: what kind of electrical plugs would a house built in japan in 1939 have, assuming it was built out in the sticks? Would newly-built houses in the country generally be electrified at that time?

Never mistake your inability to richly imagine the outgroup for an actual general consensus among them. No matter how wrong they might be about the things they agree on, they define themselves by their minor internal schisms.
