Hey, First time here? what is the platform about?

anything you'd like to talk about

Interface looks sleek. The idea of text based messaging is quite interesting in the age photos and videos based heavy apps.

haha, yes. it's quiet on here though!

That’s also the point isn’t it? The people who like this place doesn’t like it too busy. So for them (us?) it will be a nice place to hang out as long as it stay uncommercial and low-key. But to be prosperous and interesting to the creator, it need to grow. 🤷‍♂️

…

I think I'm happy with it no matter what. it's all the same to me!

I’m using textlog to explore the intersection of and tech, with the goal of building an app that solves a problem in this space. Named , it's word represented as a hex color. Of all the words there, it is a cocoa-ish color and is an appropriate name for this idea.

This is a very silly thing to be doing in 2026, but I finally tried some Quake 1 recently. Pretty cool, it's amazing how much it really does just end up feeling like Doom in 3D.

Since I played both Doom and Quake 2 back in the day, it does feel like I've finally bridged that gap, to where I think I understand what people mean when they talk about Romero's influence in the design.

Another thing I think it makes really clear is just how much room-over-room changes the way the game spaces feel, even if no one's actively thinking about that while they play.

I wonder If I can just rant here?

Feel free.

Nice username. It could be worth a lot someday. 😊

This SM is like a subreddit feed, except you also get a personalized feed along with 'hot' and 'latest' for people you follow. Or maybe it's modelled after twitter? Never used it so wouldnt know

How can I change an organisation with hundreds of frustrated employees, when I can’t change my own life with only one person. Does a different person run a company and a different person live their life? I doubt it.

I think so, actually. My wife runs my household, I run my engineering org. As I get older I do see the two aspects of my personality start to merge but they are still divergent and were much moreso in my earlier years.

and to be clear, I don't mean that I offload all the work to her by any stretch. It's just that I'm much more outspoken and opinionated on the specifics of work life versus home life.

Enjoyed reading “revo, the programming language” post:

Ran a SQL workshop tonight, it went okay. just bums me out attendance to "learning" events is down unless you add the word AI to it.

I'm looking for a way to manage my bookmarks easily on desktop and Android. Anyone have any experience with software like that? It'd be nice to be able to tag or categorize pages, and maybe to keep local mirrors for certain ones. I'm open to self-hosting. Thanks for reading!

I've stopped managing bookmarks after del.icio.us died - now i just hit the browser star but they seem to disappear and never visit them again, apart from the most recent. The situation sucks really. I'm also interested in a good solution.

While learning jj, I realize how Git habituated me into being ok with its unique jargon and prickly command line interface. Unlearning Git is refreshing.

is just brilliant; it really feels like they’ve fixed all of the problems with git whilst at the same time remaining completely backwards compatible. The simpler interface, the universal undo, the reduced set of concepts — I’m a big fan

Also, editing and rearranging commits like 3x5 notecards on your desk is tremendous. It makes using an SCM feel more like editing your work than lumbering forward.

You would not download a car... You would not upload a collection and ask the user to log in now... Send api requests 1998 style.. lightweight and without tracking github.com/alainnothere/mailBoy news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50359814

van szomorú vasárnap, van vidám vasárnap, és van átlagostól egy kicsit jobban elcseszett vasárnap is, mint ez a mai

There are sad Sundays, there are happy Sundays, and there are Sundays that are a little more screwed up than average, like today's.

Hello, world

trying to revive the blogging golden days. recommend some blogs with rss feed about game, movie reviews, and animation. or comic strips, traditional or webcomic.

This is like the third time in my life I've seen an interrobang in the wild. And I don't know, but I'd prefer JSON over having configuration as constants in a PHP script like at $DAYJOB sob

Ok, that sounds significantly worse, but like, YAML and TOML exists people…

My problem with yaml is the indentation annoyance it leads to, and if you are using the same tool on two different machine like windows and linux, have fun configuring those tabs and spaces all the time. I do like toml and ini for editing, but json is not as bad as yaml for sure

Trying to gently work my way back to the target intensity needed for the Norwegian 4x4 to get my weekly dose of suck and feel accomplished after. Chronic left leg pain unfortunately likes reminding me it's there though.

I'm working on this command-center project. Human describes the mission. Agents define the mission, breakdown and come up with a plan, and drive it.
