Yes, I see. But don’t underestimate OS caching for files and directories!
If you look up files in the same directory many times then OS may use cached results from earlier lookups.
I’m not totally sure but I believe this is how things work for both, Windows and Linux at least.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de
I just pulled it, works like a charm (as expected) ;-)

Previously, to work on my code server, I always installed Visual Studio Code locally and then accessed the server using the Remote SSH extension. But that no longer seems necessary now that I have code-server installed. Using code-server, Visual Studio Code can be easily used in the browser. Cool project! ⌘ Read more

@prologic@twtxt.net I’ve been working away on side projects: http://git.jb55.com. Trying more these days to not tweet about stuff I’m working on until I’m finished.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de How is deletion supposed to work? In mutt I deleted by D~d>1m and then fetched by !jenny -f. This brings back all deleted twts. Isn’t lastmods used to skip older twts?

Video: C Programming on System 6 - Amend Revision Control System
It’s been almost a year since my last confessional video. A few weeks ago I started working on a small revision control system to handle my C projects developed on my Mac and it’s now at the point where I can at least manage commits to the tool itself. ⌘ Read more

@movq@www.uninformativ.de
Aha! Cool! Not just deleting, but proceeding as if the twt is going to be send. If I :q! on vi it will add an empty line. If, instead, I go :x like I normally do, it works as you said—and as I wanted it. Thanks!

There’s a lot of chatter about what to do with the work on the gemini spec. Hopefully we’ll have a solution of some kind in place soon.

@stigatle@twtxt.net
It is a lovely view! That’s home office, or work office? I am hoping the second, though I do not know Norway’s days and nights well. I know that Sweden can get pretty dark, or pretty light, for long periods of time.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org
Not anymore 😭. I still have a self-propelled one, and electric, which is very nice. But when you live under an almost constant 32-35℃, with super high humidity, you cease liking working outside pretty quick.

Apple Event for 18 October 2021, 10:00 PDT, 13:00 EDT begins. Commentary will stream as replies to this twt. I might miss things here and there, as I will also be on a work meeting from 13:00 to 14:00 EDT.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de
Wow! For any country such flooding would be devastating, but Germany isn’t used (doesn’t see) to that kind of flooding, correct?

There is still no estimate of when this infrastructure could work again.

Oh dear… 😞

The features that macOS Monterey will bring, albeit minor, will made for a better “quality of living”. I am looking forward to Notes, and the iCloud+ integration (Private Relay, Hide My Email). It also bring macOS cohesively close to iOS. My work 2015 iMac and M1 Mini will get it, so looking forward to it!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org
Yup, it works great! I understand many people will not take my approach, and that’s fine with me. ☺️

hurrah! xrxs client works~ there is a new blog post about all things xrxs

I am noticing that Yarn doesn’t treat “outside” (that is, twts coming from a client other than Yarn) twts hashes right. Two examples:

• https://twtxt.net/twt/mwtnrna
  
• https://twtxt.net/twt/fl5dooq
  

There are many more, but those two will give you the gist. Yarn links the hash to the poster’s twtxt.txt, so conversation matching will not work.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de, would you know the regex to use within .muttrc to colorise a Markdown code block like the one below?

# This one works for `code`, but that's about it.
(^|[[:space:][:punct:]])\`[^\`]+\`([[:space:][:punct:]]|$)

It work like a bliss, and it is exactly what I wanted. I don’t often see the need to use new lines but having the ability to do so add richness to the whole experience. Thank you very much, again, for listening and implementing this!

@prologic@twtxt.net I am thinking on calling in sick to work. 😂 Every time I order an iPhone, I take the day off on delivery day. On Apple events I normally use my lunch and break times all combined, to watch them.

@prologic@twtxt.net Look on the web interface. Goryon needs work, but you mentioned that before.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de To clarify, Markdown is just text. 😊 I can do bolding, link things, and if single return multilines ever comes to jenny, I would be able to do bulleted and numbered lists.

The only things—that I know of—that doesn’t work is “> “, but I can use “>”, like so:

D’oh!

So, jenny allows me to write Markdown almost just fine!

If I worked for Apple, and had decision making on acquisitions, I would buy Lux, the makers of Halide. I mean, look at this!

@quark@ferengi.one >This works…

Now, if I use “>” (without the quotes) with a space after it, and then text, the entire line gets omitted.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de This is my env, on language:

LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8

LANG=en_US.UTF-8

LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

I had to explicitly set it on the cron job to make jenny work.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yup. Added all the language ones, and bam, working like a charm!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yup, I did. I setup the three of them: LC_ALL, LANGUAGE, and LANG. Working as intended now, beautifully! Thank you!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de OK, will work on it tonight. Thank you!

@prologic@twtxt.net Works permit, I will probably be twting about it. I try not to miss one single event. 

It’s FRIDAAAAY! Wohoo! I’m in an unusually good mood today, and work is a lot more rewarding than I’d expected. Awesomeness.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ah, I see. I mean, it is not biggie, as normally I just reply to people, so that part works beautifully. A vi/vim script would work, but it is not universal. What if I use joe, or Emacs, or nano? Meh, jenny is awesome as is, thank you for it! ☺️

@fastidious@tilde.town This works nicely!

Jérôme Poisson: Libervia progress note 2021-W38
Hello,

it’s time for a new progress note. The work is currently focused on ActivityPub Gateway, and progress has been done on pubsub cache search and the base component.

Next to the pubsub cache implementation, it was necessary to have a good way to search among items.

So far, Libervia was doing pubsub search using pubsub service’s capabilities, and notably the [XEP-0431](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0 … ⌘ Read more

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk I like your website’s look, but i was disappointed to find that ‘finger’ doesn’t seem to actually work. ;-)

Based on spam logs, I am (again) considering banning a bunch of TLDs at the server level. Has anyone ever gotten legitimate email from a .work, .casa, or .today domain, for example?

thinking about a building something in the realm of !gesture that could work alongside !gest. The core principle of gest is line construction using breakpoints and an external clock. This new system, which I think I will call sloop, is more about making lines using slope. It would work by sending it messages: go from here, to there, in some amount of time, and use an external clock. If it reaches there, you have arrived. If a new message arrives before you get there, you are already here, now you have a new there. I think this approach would lend itself well to more open-ended kinds of gestures. #halfbakedideas

OpenBSD on the Huawei MateBook X (2020)
My old 2017 Huawei MateBook X has been my most reliable laptop and has continued to be my daily-use workstation despite trying half a dozen others (and a desktop or two) in the past four years. Every time I’d try a new laptop, certain components wouldn’t work properly, or the keyboard would feel strange, or the screen would look bad, or the fan or some coil-whine noise would drive me nuts. And every time, I’d return to my MateBook X and everything would just work silently. ⌘ Read more
