One of my favourite styles of Brazilian music is "Chorinho", and Luca Frazão is this new kid on the block who's just absolutely amazing:

Developed a Vinboard (my pinboard.in clone) shortcut, works really well. On iOS it lives in Share menu, on macOS in the Dock. Click sends the current browser page (Safari, Chrome, Zed, Firefox) for bookmarking. On the server side Jev decides tags from 60 least recently used; and archival opens a real Chrome to save the whole page for posterity. Unlimited API limits and direct requests to the database. Pinboard charges for much less functionality $22/year.

hello

Hi 👋

An interesting thought: historically, a major consideration for companies choosing what to use is how many engineers use it (because that will make hiring much easier/harder). Going forward, this becomes "how big of a corpus of this code is out there", because it impacts how proficient are likely to be at using it.

and now for something completely different, why do the lovers think I'm ?

Is it that you don’t enjoy coffee, or you don’t enjoy Starbucks? I’m not a fan of Starbucks’ coffee myself, but do enjoy coffee I make at home or get from local coffee shops.

It is something silly made out of misheard lyrics from a Taylor Swift song. I usually drink instant coffee 🥹

work week is finally over. time to over this long (US) weekend

What you playing? My recent was Mina the Hollower—intricate, dense, demanding. Bangers on the soundtrack. Good stuff.

ive been making my way through monster hunter world's iceborne expansion. lots of fun mina the hollower is near the top of my list to play soon, have fun!

Anybody here using mastodon regularly? What instance are you on? I can't decide on where to register 😅

I'm using mastodon.social but i think you can look the instances in their site and decide by interest.

There's a really good one run by someone in the Netherlands. He forked the software and made a ton of improvements. I was on there six years ago. I wish I could remember the name.

Ah! Qoto.org! It looks like it might be gone now though :/

…

I decided to use mstdn.social/@zbr - I like that’s it’s not too crowded and has a 500 word limit.

i love indian food.

i recently finished hemingways "the old man and the sea". very highly recommend for anybody that wants something short and memorable. left me feeling something between inspired and nihilistic

This strangely reminded me of golden days of Twitter. There was a point I absolutely love Twitter. This is also a reminder for me to pick up a book instead of reading a load of random stuff online. Thank you!

I read it when I was (too) young. I didn't understand it. It seems I shoul read it again.

What’s up ?

hey! welcome :)

hey bro, nice platfrom! whats the stack?

Thanks! It's server-side React with Bun and SQLite. There is zero frontend JS!

…

Cool!! I'm currently designing and idea-shopping for an ultra light weight, super aesthetic browser whose goal is to go back to HTML roots and just be a "document browser". It would have HTML 4 and semantic HTML support, images, videos, full HTTP support, cookies, etc. No CSS, JS

whats the stack? nice platfrom you got here

I've spent way too much time recently writing TUIs for productivity (eg. merging github PRs, Google Chat DMs, firewall approval requests into one dashboard, another for watching actions on my PRs) and lost a lot of productivity as a result.

The seductive power of using to just-get-it-done is very strong. One can't hurry quality. One can iterate quickly though in the hope of arriving somewhere good.

I direct a plan, then break it into phases, and each phase into sections with tasks and sub-tasks. The plan outlines all phases, but only write tasks one phase at a time, since things change. That's how I've been working with for the past few months to a year. It has been amazingly consistently high quality. just-get-it-done is for the rough sketch or proof of concepts (I do those too and a lot of them) but never for a quality product.

Having a little difficulty seeing how long this service will exist. People are terrible. Sooner or later it will be found and ruined.

Yup. I have long change my philosophy on things like these: just live the day. :-)

Textboard lasted for years and I think it only went away because the admin got bored.

Nudged by an interesting read about time perception to try reclaim moments where I can deliberately feel bored again.

The live tab on the android app is interesting... How does it work? This is a test 🫣

Does it do some kind of polling? Is there some kind of notify like publisher subscriber? 🤔

It’s using the /firehose endpoint. It’s an SSE endpoint publishing everything latest. Though I meant it to be used server-side, since it’s heavily rate-limited — up to 3 conns under the same network, but I can’t control how clients decide to use it so.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

…

Might just lift the limitation.

Lifted, that’s how clients want to use it then so be it! Should be fine. We’re nowhere near crashing the server from connections.

I forgot that I was at work and did my big sneeze, not the work sneeze. The one where a startled deer looks straight into the camera, which then zooms out to a flock of pigeons taking off, and a crow makes a warning noise. Someone dropped something in the adjacent lab. I hope it wasn't my fault.
