hi :3

hi

I wonder how much data Apple is transferring today. I used to download from a BBS Apple II software overnight on a 2400 baud modem. What a trip.

anyone know a good keyboard? specifically one that's quiet?

replied to:

Glad to meet a fellow Royal 😃. Also, what are the switches you went for? Brown for me.

replied to:

Same! I like that it doesn't make the click sound and still give me the proper keystroke feedback :)

replied to:

OK-M? I have the previous , 65%, and am very happy with it. I think it’s available both in quiet and noisy #versions (but the two I have are clicketyclicky). ducky ok-m

replied to:

this is mainly a problem of switches. get a keyboard formfactor you like with a good body and replacable switches. thatll be the only keyboard you need for the rest of your life. if you want to change things up, buy new switches and caps. i personally use Outemu Silent Lime V3 Silent Tactile switches from aliexpress, and highly recommend them as they are cheap, feel awesome and are very quiet

I really enjoy low-profile keyboards for this very reason. Depending on your system of course, but the most silent keyboard I've used (and still use) is the Mac Magic Keyboard. But most low profile ones are in my experience pretty quiet.

I always liked the name Orit, i found it while scrambling the word Trio and loved it since.

Never actually met someone with that name, sounds cool though.

i got into the fashion to vibevode some utility apps for myself. i didn't review the code. they work fine. colleagues are interested. i don't feel comfortable to put such stuff on $Github. have no good consciousness with unreviewed and likely ununderstood (stack I am not really familiar with). internet is full of people who don't care, I know. i tend to overthink. what about you?

replied to:

i think over time people might care less and less.

I used to go to NC every summer -- had family near Jacksonville. They moved back to the North Country last year. Very pretty state you've got there.

I'm doing experiments with short attention-span students and code. Starting with python, and, oddly, now working in BASIC. As a C programmer of 40+ years, I find this aesthetically and pedagogically displeasing, but I am delighted to see them getting fully absorbed in writing 130 PRINT "You have been eaten by a bear!" : GOTO 900. Yes there is spaghetti, but it's their spaghetti and they seem to take delight in debugging it. Python will come later.

I was talking about this with some alumni students, specifically their experience learning python with us a few years earlier (these are college students who are not really using python any more). What it seems to boil down to is that with python you have the feeling that there is this huge forest of solutions to any problem you are having -- but you will never know the whole forest. BASIC feels like you "know" it after a day or two of playing around, evidently.
