Eagle-eyed folks may have noticed that I made a few wee changes to this website.

The biggest, and most noticeable one is that I’ve filtered out all of the like type posts from appearing on the main feed, from rss, and in the archives. There were waaaaay to many, so filtering them out makes the entire website a lot more navigable. They are not gone, though, and I’ll probably keep sharing like type posts, but now they ar … ⌘ Read more

I just went to type the phrase “I avoid Linux like the plague” but then remembered that we’ve all learned that most people won’t actually go much out of their way to avoid the plague.

Day 16 of Advent of Code is so confusing that I will not finish today’s puzzle. I wonder if yesterday was my last day with Advent of Code, or will the puzzles become more understandable and easier again in the next few days? Maybe I’m just more the practical type. I like programming, but such complex algorithms are not really my thing. And in the end, Advent of Code is supposed to be fun… ⌘ Read more

** Operators in C **
Following up my notes on Data Types and Variables in C here are notes on operators in C.

An operator is a symbol that represents a mathematical or logical operation. An operator effects operands.

C provides a number of operators.

Some arithmetic operators include,

”`hljs plaintext

+

*
/
%
”`

% is the most exciting of the list, it is called modulo and it returns the remainder after division. Of note, modulo c … ⌘ Read more

@movq@www.uninformativ.de
I’m not a Python programmer, so please bear with me.
The doc about encodings does also mention:

If you require a different encoding, you can manually set the Response.encoding property

Wouldn’t that be a one liner like (Ruby example)?

'some text'.force_encoding('utf-8')

I understand that you do not want to interfere with requests. On the other hand we know that received data must be utf-8 (by twtxt spec) and it does burden “publishers” to somehow add charset property to content-type header. But again I’m not sure what “the right thing to do” ™ is.

@prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de
Exactly, you see correct UTF-8 encoded version (even with content-type: text/plain leaving out charset declaration).

After following utf8test twtxt myself I now see that jenny does not handle it as UTF-8 when charset is missing from HTTP header, just like @quark@ferengi.one has observed.

So should jenny treat twtxt files always as UTF-8 encoded? I’m not sure about this.

My nutritional supplements aim should be:

  • 1 or 1.5 cups of lentils (or any beans you might like better).
  • 2 or 2.5 cups of bitter greens.
  • 1 cup of your favourite protein (or an egg), grilled, or fried with a little of olive oil.
  • 1 or 2 tomatoes, or a handful if of the cherry type.
  • No added sugars. If it is sweet, make it have fibre.
  • No added salt (or very little and ionised), as salt is everywhere.

Related, I tried wild rice for the first time yesterday. It was different, in a good way.

** Data Types and Variables in C **
I’ve been writing a heap of Lua lately — this has lead to my becoming interested, again, in C. Here are some ancient notes I dug up on the most basics of data types and variables in C.

All of a computer’s memory is comprised of bits. A sequence of 8 bits forms a byte. A group of bytes (typically 4 or 8) form a word. Each word is associated with a memory address. The address increases by 1 with each byte of memory.

In C, a byte is an object that is as big as t … ⌘ Read more

Gajim: Development News September 2021
September brought many updates under the hood. With big changes coming up in Gajim 1.4, many parts of the code have to be touched. These changes remain mostly invisible for users, but make Gajim more robust. In some cases, this results in visible improvements as well: Both Add Contact and Start Chat windows are now detecting the type of chat behind an address.

Changes in Gajim

Since development on Gajim 1.4 started, a lot has changed under the hood. … ⌘ Read more

Are you able to coax your webserver to add the charset to the content type header? Browsers are having a hard time thinking you are sending latin-1
