This is some cool development for the go 1.22 standard http mux. Its adding the ability to have path vars and define methods for handlers. Also the errors are quite helpful if you have conflicting paths!

Release Radar · July 2023 Edition
After the last Release Radar, I promised the next one wouldn’t be far away, so here it is. This is the low down on some of the best open source projects that shipped major version updates in July. There’s lots of cool stuff from natural language processing, to APIs, money, and SDKs. I won’t spoil […]

Cactus Comments has now seen over 1.2 million unique users - only counting guest users on our free public instance.

Guest users on instances not hosted by us and signed in users on any server don’t even count in this statistic.

cactus.chat has to be the Matrix server with most guest users at this point…

I keep spotting implementations in the wild as well. Last week I saw someone using it for the comment section of a livestream! So cool.

Russia blowing up the Nova Kakhovka dam is an incomprehensible war crime. Among other things, it drains water from the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, water that is needed for cooling. They are trying to generate a widespread disaster.

They must be stopped, immediately, without hesitation. This is unacceptable behavior, crossing every red line we have no matter our politics, without any doubt.

@shreyan@twtxt.net I agree re: AR. Vircadia is neat. I stumbled on it years ago when I randomly started wondering “wonder what’s going on with Second Life and those VR things” and started googling around.

Unfortunately, like so many metaverse efforts, it’s almost devoid of life. Interesting worlds to explore, cool tools to build your own stuff, but almost no people in it. It feels depressing, like an abandoned shopping mall.

a shitty config file parser in fennel

2023-04-28 21:51

i’m working on rewriting my blog enging again (lol) in fennel (again), and made
this simple config file parser for the following config file format:

name = someone's name
domain = verycoolwebsite.com
email = awsick@cool.com

it turned out to be pretty easy too! i made use of fennel’s threader macro,

(1) You go to the store and buy a microwave pizza. You go home, put it in the microwave, heat it up. Maybe it’s not quite the way you like it, so you put some red pepper on it, maybe some oregano.

Are you a pizza chef? No. Do we know what your cooking is like? Also no.

(2) You create a prompt for StableDiffusion to make a picture of an elephant. What pops out isn’t quite to your liking. You adjust the prompt, tweak it a bunch, till the elephant looks pretty cool.

Are you an artist? No. Do we know what your art is like? Also no.

The elephant is “fake art” in a similar sense to how a microwave pizza is “fake pizza”. That’s what I meant by that word. The microwave pizza is a sort of “simulation of pizza”, in this sense. The generated elephant picture is a simulation of art, in a similar sense, though it’s even worse than that and is probably more of a simulacrum of art since you can’t “consume” an AI-generated image the way you “consume” art.

Very cool. I like the chain rules. I wonder how it performs against lextwt.

Too lazy or too ambitious?

I’m currently validating the use of the OpenAI API as a cheaper and more powerful alternative to the Google Translate API. I hope my plans succeed and there will be a new GoBlog plugin with some AI power soon. ✨ So far the OpenAI API is quite easy to use, I thought it would be more complicated. Philipp is already using the API for his diary, another cool idea (which I may copy someday). ⌘ Read more

@ocdtrekkie@twtxt.net That is cool that there is no tpic. Its not like people on these open platforms have to use linux or some free and open os. Anyone can use whatever they want to. Yarn is just a web ui for twtxt and the os does not matter. I can’t say on for long time at midnight and I left before you started.

all the cool kids? in the bay. me? chillin’

Before we were sexually herrassed by flying ants in the end, we picked the first blackberries of the season on today’s hike. Very yummy, let me tell you!

It’s super dry everywhere, just have a look at the dried out grass in the first two photos. Two nights ago we had the first and biggest forest fire about eight kilometers away. The newspaper article claims that 7,000 m² (sic!) of forest were on fire. In the morning of that day the district fire chief introduced the new alarm plan for forest fires. Eight fire brigades responded with 83 fire fighters in 17 vehicles. Eight trucks shuttled 30,000 liters of water to the scene. Luckily, four and a half hours later they had it under control. A fire fighting drone specialists department of a neighboring fire service located several pockets of embers. I wasn’t even aware, that we have such specialists here in the county, pretty cool. Unfortunately, one fire man probably broke his Achilles tendon in this fire run, the article says.

Other than that, there had been four other wildland fires with a hedge, bunch of trees, a 20,000 m² big stubble fields and another vegetation fire since June in our county. I actually didn’t know that. Well, that’s all nothing compared to the fires they have in East Germany at the moment.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Now that is a cool thing. Showing the work time. I need something like that, too!

@prologic@twtxt.net What’s a lot? @movq@www.uninformativ.de I’m glad it rained much more in the end than I expected, but still a lot less than I was hoping for. Also the cooling was a couple of hours late. Today, we had the chance of breathing a wee bit before it will raise again tomorrow.
