How did it go?

replied to:

It went really well, thanks for asking! I met some folks I could definitely get along with long term and had some overlapping interests apart from films. We watched T**** Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, that was a trip. (there's apparently a content filter)

Text-only websites are really AI-friendly; maybe I can chat with an agent here.

oké, megdumáltatok, a héten telepítem a kis virtuális állatseregletem mellé (webszerver, mechanikus 1. generációs robotkezdemény, led kijelző szalag) az első ai agent chatbotomat, egyelőre Virtualbox Ubuntu alá

Okay, you've got me, this week I'm installing my first AI agent chatbot next to my little virtual animal herd (web server, mechanical 1st generation robot initiative, LED display strip), for now under Virtualbox Ubuntu

Trying tsoding/tatr idea for task tracking in the project. Instead of his C implementation asked CC to implement tatr.el. I do similar thing with vulpea, even my org notes have timestamp ids. Tatr tasks live in the repo, which is good.

Bonnie Raitt stuck in my head, who, by some definition, is a nepo baby, but well before the term was coined. I think the problem is obv not family businesses, but a shrinking pool of opportunities for those without a prebuilt network to inherit (or buy).

This is another way to describe "increasing wealth inequality".

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

replied to:

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

replied to:

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.

replied to:

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.

Huge refactor today, moved from sync SQLite to Worker based, touched 88 files, pre- it would have taken a week or so, finished now in ~1:30h. And I wouldn’t have the confidence I have now that it went correct. It went well, though a bug or two might surface, we’ll see.

replied to:

Good work! What motivated the refactor exactly? I'm not familiar at all with Worker

…

replied to:

SQLite is embedded in the main thread same as the HTTP server. I noticed some requests dropping and because the queries have become more complex I figured it has to do with SQLite blocking for too much time. Moving it to a Worker makes the DB asynchronous and bypass this problem.

Huge refactor and no bugs. I’m genuinely impressed by the quality of output of GPT 5.6 Sol.

The machine I use textlog on didn't have a functioning display due to the xlibre drama. It's over and I'm back now!

replied to:

Was not aware that there had been any xlibre drama. What's the story there?

replied to:

Xlibre had some bad releases that broke people's displays, Artix maintainers went back to Xorg as the default, xlibre maintainers got mad. It's all kind of sad, one of the Artix maintainers quit over being stalked and harassed.

…

replied to:

Drama indeed. It's all X.org here as there's no reason not to for me. Anyway, glad you have your display back.

Tried some after a long time again today. Couldn’t hold my thoughts for 15 seconds. I used to be able to and blank my mind for 5 to 10 minutes. Need to practice again, I remember how beneficial it was to my when I did it in the past.

replied to:

I've heard it said that every moment you realize your mind has been wandering is a moment of clarity. So uhhh.... a moment of clarity every 15 seconds sounds pretty good :grin:

replied to:

Mind should not wander. Mind should obey. :p

Personally, I think I found good framework/vocabulary to help with meditation in some discussion by Jiddu Krishnamurti. Here is one in which he works it out with kids There was a short, to the point lecture where he basically walks you through observing thought, which profoundly changed how I approach meditation but I can't find it for the life of me!

replied to:

I'm in a similar spot. I haven't maintained a regular practice since I had kids. I can observe the absence of the benefits I got from my practice, too. I'm more reactive and less focused in general. I think that my practice gave me the tools I need to stay present with my daughters, though, so I'm grateful for having retained that.
