- Is there a way to get an atom version of the “for-you” feed? I’m guessing this is complicated by needing to be authenticated.

replied to:

Exactly, it makes it way more complicated that's why it's not there yet. Not against the idea though.

Everytime I come on here I feel so dumb compared to everyone -_- mostly because I didn't come here from GitHub or any other major site like it .. :P

replied to:

I literally came here because I saw the app on F-droid, I didn't even know this app existed until then.

replied to:

Any advantages in using the app instead of having the site as a PWA on Android?

…

replied to:

I don't see any, this is just how I found out about the app and use it.

replied to:

I've never used f droid until getting the app! does it have any other cool apps? :O

…

replied to:

Absolutely! There are many FOSS apps as alternatives to closed ones, I have it on every phone.

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.

replied to(deleted account):

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.

I’ve been working with OpenStreetMaps a little and I must say, they’ve done an incredible job. The data are very detailed and accurate, I can’t believe they’re free to use. Someone must be paying all those topographers somehow or I don’t understand how this can be achieved by volunteers. This project, Warsaw in Voxels which uses them inspired me to play as well.

replied to:

nobody is paying us. It's a work of love :)

replied to:

you may start with StreetComplete to contribute easily. With time, you may need more capable interfaces like Vespucci. Seems like i can't post links on textlog for now. Both apps are available on fDroid

replied to:

There are very nice tooling that allows to contribute data to it as well. I recently installed StreetComplete and contributed a little (very little, but still).

we also launched Norma! :) It checks AI-generated code for security, quality and maintainability while the agent is still working, rather than after a pull request opens. The output is deterministic. Here the demo link: portal.qualityclouds.ai/demo

I am programming a and custom DSL for it in C99. It gets a bit frustrating to think of language design and engine architecture decisions

replied to:

that sounds cool!!! are you planning to make a visual novel any time soon?

replied to:

I am actually doing this engine to make my own VN! I wanted a solution that's both light on web and is native. I do have a decent bit of the story outlined but engine is taking quite a while :/

replied to:

could I know what the storys about?!

replied to:

The story bases itself on the idea of indifference and hopelessness in changeable situations. Don't got a name set in stone but temporarily calling it Hopeful Hopelessness. It's my first time writing but I hope it becomes a nice story

I would love to play when your done with it!

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.
