I can’t believe someone is squatting the raccoon.energy domain

Baited sorry I don’t have fully formed thoughts yet. But gist is we want to be social too but not like that, so don’t be like “you don’t have to use blah” when blah is the social thing. We want to exist publicly social publicly with protection from harassments, stalkers, and doxxers.

Found this weird screenshot, anyone knows what is going on? It sure looks like Windows but not like any Windows I’ve ever seen

@nikitonsky Windows 3.x with its layout tweaked and customized with OSFrame

Gosha

@nikitonsky This is a custom shell ("Calmira II", calmira.de/) for Win 3.1 that makes it look like Win 95, plus possibly some customisation from OSFrame. Some more info here: geocities.ws/cryptic_crab/wind

I’m reading Derek Sivers’ “How to Live”, and the “Commit” chapter resonates with me deeply. It feels like what I want to do at this stage of my life.

@gosha Did you try the "detect text from image" tool that is (or at least should be) in most Mastodon frontends? It would have added the whole text instead of just that one paragraph.

Does your website have a 88x31 banner? Let's see it!

My intuition is that to grow as a builder, these are the skills I need to improve in the next few years: math and formal logic, CS fundamentals, writing/communication and sales. It would also be helpful to understand the principles behind tech like ML and LLMs, so that I can be more than a passive consumer of these technologies.

@gosha Sounds like a good plan. There are plenty folks here who can help you with those things (apart from sales maybe).

This is the REPL development workflow diagram from the Learn #ClojureScript book by Andrew Meredith. Looking at it, I realise that I've been missing the opportunity to write unit tests as well as I do REPL exploration. TIL!

The book: learn-clojurescript.com/

@gosha yeah, it's seems like a simple thing – copying text from one place to another – that's really super useful. and clojure's "it's just data" makes this very easy, because it's really just copying text. i don't remember ever writing a mock in a clojure unit test

@gosha have you seen the posts of Ian Henry about repl dev in Janet, a lisp like language? Probably nothing new for you but I liked it a lot ianthehenry.com/posts/my-kind-

Finally managed to get up at 5 again. Made some coffee, put on some jazz, and hacking on some #ClojureScript while the rest of the family sleeps.

@gosha
Sounds wonderful! Too bad the rest of *my* family wakes up at 05:40. 🥱

Gosha

This is a delightful exploration of why the #Lisp syntax works so well: stopa.io/post/265

vindarel

@gosha A beautiful, precious and timeless post.

I should pin it on every Lisp resource I have a hand on!

DELETED

@gosha This!! I read it so long ago and it was great and its title got munged up in my mind with "You Could Have Invented Monads" and i could never find it again. Thanks for bringing it back to me!

I watched this talk by Stepan Parunashvili at #ClojureConj and as he was going through the modern FE architecture diagrams, I could really notice tension building in my body, ha. InstantDB seems like a very clever solution, makes me want to give it a try. youtube.com/watch?v=6FikTQf8qh

🤔 Is it possible to write a CLI tool in ClojureScript? Should be possible, right? Or would something like Babashka be the way to go?

अनीश

@gosha hehehe yess *sickos meme*

git.sealight.xyz/aynish/nbb-ha

technically this is a TUI tool. it's built in React (🤷) and ClojureScript using github.com/babashka/nbb

I also built git.sealight.xyz/aynish/muneem which is pure babashka, and generally nicer if you're just doing CLI stuff imo

I've been a photographer for almost 20 years now and the one thing I regret is how much money and mental energy I spent on gear.

When it comes down to it, the gear does not matter. What matters is a life well lived, and the pictures that are born from that.

Pretty sure this doesn't apply only to photography, ha.

Csepp 🌢

@gosha Yup. I feel this way about art in general. People have more than enough capacity to suspend their disbelief for an interesting story or idea, even if it is not being transferred with the highest fidelity.

@gosha Some of the gear's real nice, though… also, keyboards? 😉

Keith Jarrett. "The Köln Concert". First track, "Köln, January 24, 1975, Part I".

Those grunts, moans, whoops, foot taps. I wonder if they had tried to edit them out somehow and gave up? They really bring the performance alive, for me. First thing I listen to almost every morning.

Well this morning is a bummer. Time to refocus on building what I want to see more of in the world.

Gosha

Wondering when the talks from Clojure/conj will be released! There's a few things I want to see there.

Gosha

I work with Lucian and if there's anyone who knows what they're talking about when it comes to Ruby testing, it's him! Go get it ✨

I was excited to watch @danielsz's talk on the Foundational Ideas of Lisp yesterday! Unfortunately, I really don't have the math (?) to understand things on the fly, so I'm planning to do a rewatch where I'll ask ChatGPT to explain things to me as I go

@gosha @danielsz Wouldn't searching for them on Wikipedia or StackExchange give more reliable answers? (Especially if you are just asking it to regurgitate definitions.)

@hdv did you see this

solarprotocol.net/

I would also like to utilise something like this but can't imagine the UK being decent for solar power but maybe it's enough for a small site

Here's something I've been building in the early mornings of the last month or so: parts.ifs.tools

I am hoping that this will be the first of a series of tools @Tingyi and I could build that would support psychotherapists and their clients in the work that they do. Currently we're focusing on the Internal Family Systems model, but this might change in the future!

Gosha

From the technical point of view, this is my first full-fledged #Clojure application! I'm very happy that I managed to get to a point where I'm building useful features rather than just hacking/figuring things out.
