Maybe implementing a subset of Markdown would be a good thing. I am thinking about bold, italics, inline code, and code block, mostly. Oh, and links.

…

replied to:

That’s a great set (and then no more!)

replied to:

I think so. It could even be made a setting, defaulting it to off. I think it would be useful, especially is self-hosted for a tech community.

replied to:

Instead of what to add I'm always asking myself what can be avoided or what can I take out. Adding features is easy. Minimalism is hard.

replied to:

I agree that minimalism is hard. That’s why the subset was explicitly recommended small. Yet, I believe it is extremely useful to have.

Cool! Let’s test it with a link to Google.

replied to:

I've tested MD and honestly I don't like it. Bold/italics add unnecessary noise/clutter and the font is already monospace, suited for code, so inline code & code fences are not needed. If 3rd party clients want to implement them it's fine but I'm sensitive to visual noise.

replied to:

I agree with this. The core you're building is around a deliberate minimalist philosophy. I was happy to build an opinionated client for my own use-case, but it should imo stay on the fringes for those seeking it.

Hi I came back after a few weeks, it seems there were some significant updates. Is it possible to set the first click to open the note instead of reply? Anyhow, good work, hope more people join here

Also, the "write a note" button on the footer seems not working

After months of hardly any rain, I’m really enjoying a cozy day stuck indoors just listening to the downpour; getting on with doing some house cleaning. Is it too premature to declare this autumn⁇

I'd been listening to di.fm for years, and have been missing a MacOS app. Thanks, Antigravity, for making the world of personalized software really easy: fifteen minutes and two small bugs later, github.com/haykinson/difmplayer gives me a Spotify-style player. Yay!

replied to:

Dang, DI is nice! pretty sure I stumbled upon it before but it slipped out of my attention. Re: your project, it'd be nice to add a screenshot (or even link to a small demo video). As an aside I thought of tiny player as a good interface for DI. www.catnapgames.com/tiny-player-for-mac/

Bluey's "" is an ingenious way to save . The scheme is simple: One night a week, we make twice as much and drop it off at the other family's house. They do the same on a different night.The is deceivingly simple. Doubling a recipe is easier than preparing a second dish.

omarchy felt a bit like cheating so i redid a plain arch install and am using sway now. if im honest, its all not that far away from eachother. obsessing over configs and distros is really just a hobby that some people in the linux community take too seriously.

CD-re az Ubuntu 18 lemezképfájl ajánlott, mivel a későbbi verziószámúak nem férnek rá a CD-re, vagyis a DVD-re.

The Ubuntu 18 image file is recommended for CD, as later versions do not fit on CD, i.e. DVD.

Thank you Cloudflare!

The future is here. But instead of flying cars or holodeck, what you get is tracking cookies and captcha everywhere. Maybe someday you will need to have your rectum scanned by Google or Meta nee Facebook before your browser does a HTTP request.

Installed Hermes Desktop and starting to build out my team of bots. My experience with Hermes so far has been great: it keeps surprising me by being what i need it to be ... but I'll reserve a final judgement until after a proper period of use.

moved to a new city recently and going to a Movie club meetup tonight. nervous cause I'm a huge introvert but I gotta make friends some way.

replied to:

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)

Hello World!

hi there! 👋 welcome!

Hi 👋

Google Play

for a moment I thought someone had published it 😂 but soon I hope we’ll have it on both iPhone and Android app stores. We’re in the process.

one-point-five-shotted a local node app for creating social posts. drawing from static pages (hey this exists) or new blog posts (timely). with copy/paste to x, and one click post to bluesky and mastodon, tag manager and stale/archive/reject/refresh options. An idea and a solution in about 10 minutes. Madness.

I laughed at this. I'm all for people crafting their own tools, but it really feels like everyone's reinventing the same handful of wheels for agentic development.

In terms of where I invest my time, I'm trying to find ways to zig while everyone's myopically zagging.

Job I was hoping for gave me the "we found another applicant" treatment. I don't begrudge them for that, since I know I had a 'less than adequate initial coding interview. But still, it stings and sucks. Hopefully my other interviews yield better results...

replied to:

Wish you luck! Personally, I can't even land an interview these days -get rejected on the spot, so that's a feat on its own.
