i keep open all day - the 3d pauses when the tab is out of focus, so i just get a ton of music i like without wasting cpu/gpu, and occassionally switch to the tab and play a little or chat if anyone's there.

I hate it when I don’t remember if I took my midday pill or not. Not that it matters a lot, but still, annoying. I have notifications set up but I discard them by habit because they are exact times and my sleep pattern fluctuates.

I once saw someone flip their pill bottle upside down after taking a pill. Not sure it'd help me, because I suspect that somehow I'd still only pay half-attention when taking pills and so still get forgetful and confused :shrug:

It actually works!

Hello world!

One idea that I've been thinking about is an or where it is a app so you get a new file everyday right except the app keeps track of all the files for you. the idea is that anytime you type anything it it basically makes a commit and use so anytime you type something it commits automatically after a quick pause after you stop typing.

That sounds ! Could also create summary titles with for the filenames in addition to their date so you can find what you were writing about easily. Also full text search.

Yes! Great idea. Not sure how I would implement it but the main idea is that you should feel free to delete text through out the day because everything is tracked in a git repo. 🫣

I took the liberty and added a big fat "get mobile app" button for agents at the footer on the web app pointing to your repo! Hope it's fine with you. Tysm!

Wow! thank you for even considering that!

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.

The Typst language is Turing complete. Does that mean it could be the target of a C compiler? Could I compile the Linux kernel to Typst? Certainly, one could build a mean web server with it. Look out .php, here comes

it is 19.45. i am still working

Sharing a link to my music blog: crusty-metallian.net Not a lot of content yet, it's a work in progress :)

Big list of events you've attended! Definitely dump more photos when you find the time. I'm more of a casual Nu-Metal enjoyer myself, but I can also appreciate some of the classics.

It's taken me 5 years to get a photo storage engine off the ground. I've got it now, so I now have to go back through time and get the photos up. AC/DC next Thursday!

Maurizio Lombardi!

I’ve had quite the successful day cooking today: make a Dutch baby for breakfast with blueberries, a bean stew for lunch using up all the week’s odds and ends, make a coffee and walnut cake, and barbecued/slightly smoked a whole spatchcocked chicken for the first time!

what ls -flag is your go-to?

-altr

I wish ls had an option to make . and .. top-sticky no matter of -r and -t.

-ltrah Sometimes -ltraRh

ls -lah

…

-Fla, so that’s my la alias…, but now I use and thus alias la=‘eza -F -l -a

Missed opportunities ITT for cheeky puns like -thrall -Flash etc

This is really cool site but only drawback I see is 500 character per post limit. I think this should me more like 1500. or there is a limitations type something like I can do 3-4 long post per day credit. whom can i message for this feature request?

I am certain will get back to you on such matters - creator of this platform.

On some Mastodon instances, they post whole blog posts or massive threads and I feel this type of platform is not the place for such content. But this is clearly personal taste.

Yello folks!

hey! welcome :)

What is the simplest physical system capable of open-endedly creating new knowledge?

How do they get you e-mail address?

From my HN profile, or the page I post has a contact, or my github. It’s not that hard.

The e-mail is only public if you put it in the about box. Maybe the solution is to remove it from there. But maybe you want to be contacted. In that case, spam would be the price to pay for reachability.

People have no idea how many news websites, SaaS websites, and apps I would subscribe to at prices of $30/year or less ($2.50/month).

I've been curious about the reasoning for prices too. Like, there has to be research behind it... But I agree it is far easier to buy four 2.5€ services than one for 5

What is your comfort food?

bread and hummus

Pasta and lots of it.

Palak paneer or khao soi.

Rice noodle soup

Quite a few major 's implemented today, API writes, password logins, full-text search. Wonder what's going to follow.
