So GNU Mes 0.28 is out. I wrote a blog post about it.

EDIT: Somebody put the story on lobsters. If you want to send some death threats, here's the link:

@PrototypeFund your RSS feed doesn't answer to Curl because your "bunny shield" "protects" you.
RSS feeds are supposed to be queried by bots. That's their main purpose. You shouldn't limit their access like that. Rate limiting them is fine, but don't block curl, because you are basically defeating the purpose of what an RSS feed is.
about this, it's interesting to see how the easiest/simplest/dumbest way one could use to implement a VCS' storage is basically what Git does.
Probably I'm just biased.
looking for a way to do the storage of my future VCS.
maybe this is the best opportunity to use binary data and pointerless programming for a very fast and ugly read/write?
Training with the kettlebell I ripped off a piece of hardened skin of my right hand.
I hate this.
I'm so glad that I left guix-devel...
what kind of world did usamericans create so when you give a talk you have to say your opinions are not the ones of your employer

Take a look to it. Maybe some people in Guix can use this.
By default it has a commonmark parser which is problematic, because it does not support a few things I use a lot: footnotes.
It doesn't support ids on headers either.
So I could convert the posts to sxml or html with other tool and migrate them like that, or I could add a new parser that actually supports those features.
I don't dislike simplifying my future post style or move to texinfo, which is better supported.
It's pretty flexible. Exactly the kind of flexibility that gives you freedom, and it's small enough for me to understand it.
Why is gdb's TUI so bad when you print to stdout?
Everything goes to hell when you do some printing!
Any idea, suggestion, tool, alternative UI or anything you use that can make this more comfortable?
(is it just because you are supposed to use emacs with it?)
Now I realized I need to write a version control system from scratch, too, because Git is too complex for my taste.
My computing setup needs something better.
I'm reading a little bit about diffing algorithms and all that. Interesting stuff, probably too hard for me.

What is the rich europe now??
Also because it's for no fucking reason really.
You don't like AI? Ok, understood.
Can you just talk about something you actually like and enjoy. Some good news for the folks. Something to be happy about...
No! Better just share something that makes you miserable so others can feel miserable and overwhelmed as well.
i've been successfully running away from AI positive discourse, but the negative one is almost inevitable in my circles.
Amazing how boring people can become.
I want to write a C89 compiler that only implements the reasonable parts.
Who wants to join me?
This will probably mean writing a Linker, too.
Also I will write my own R7RS scheme implementation, which I don't know if it will happen earlier or later.
Hi!
Do you have any app for sharing data locally from a phone to a computer?
What do you use for this?
I'm trying to improve a home-service in #guix but I have no idea how to test it properly :S
Whoever that thought that moving to a forge was going to be better... I have 191 notifications in codeberg, does actually anyone expect me to be able to filter and read them all properly?
It's just absurd.
The guy in the computer hardware store asked me about which Linux distribution I install.
The answer he got he didn't expect.
