yep. this is a another late-night blog post. probably won’t be a long one, but
that’s okay, i don’t aim to post at a specific length when i write, i just kind
of write how i want and when my brain wants to throw text into the world’s eyes
to read.
anyway, i updated my markup parser so i can split ordered and unordered list
items across multiple lines. it was beginning to feel odd to have a text file
that was 80 characters in width, and then … ⌘ Read more

How Hong Kong’s redevelopment projects can be showcases of ‘organic city’ growth
The decision to bulldoze Kowloon Walled City in 1993 wasted a chance to create a cultural treasure that celebrates its history and character. Instead of cookie-cutter shopping centres and residential towers, Hong Kong needs development that evolves from the local characteristics of each district. ⌘ Read more

Telegram Ads
So Telegram now has ads. But unlike the ads from Google, Facebook or Apple, the ads are not personalized and much more privacy friendly. The ads simply consist of a maximum 160-character message with no external links and are displayed only in large public channels. ⌘ Read more

Learn Chinese
Chinese is the hardest language to learn according to normies who have never tried to learn it.
In reality, Chinese is really easy. It has literally no complex morphology: no tense, plurals, gender. It doesn’t have irregular verbs or nouns because it has no verb and noun endings whatsoever. It’s almost difficult to explain how easy Chinese is.
The only different thing is the writing system which is I hesitate to say anachronistic. The Chinese character system i … ⌘ Read more

@prologic@twtxt.net 36 characters left makes it rough.
I have been using Unix for 25+ years and I just learned about the status character in shells (often ^T). Huh.
The 140 character limit of the twtxt spec is annoying. I hope you got the essence of my previous post.
@vain@www.uninformativ.de the truth is, i never “got” or liked twitter. i think it’s way too noisy and a terrible way to have a conversation, what with the character limit and all. and then mastodon came along and i thought it would be different, but then it became too twitter-like. i get what you mean about twtxt and discoverability, that is one of its drawbacks.
@prologic@twtxt.net Txtnish adds a 28 character timestamp to the message, so in Bash: tweet=tail -1 the current twtxt.txt file and then pipe echo body=${tweet:28} to twt.

@prologic@twtxt.net what is the exact syntax neeed for threads to work in the subject, e.g. will (#tsvhqdq) do it? The whole … (#tsvhqdq) thing seems like a bit of overkill. Too many characters.
