Damn, that actually sounds like a genuinely nice experience. I'd recommend books, and a battery pack or two (not sure if there's electricity available), a blanket (unless you got a sleeping cabin) and comfortable clothes.

"My feed" shows two unread messages, but I can't find them, and browsing away from it, and coming back doesn't clear that count. Perhaps sorting (unread at the top) when there unread messages is a good idea @stagasprofilefollowcreative technologist creator of textlog?

Morning everyone, I've started a project to bring back "classic" era Instagram, from say the 2012 - 2013 time frame, long before it was ensh**ified. It's nowhere near ready for public consumption, so I've closed off registrations. Right now it's mainly for me to show my photography. halation.photos

That's very nice! I would love to run something similar for my photos, do you share the source somewhere?
Tell us more! What apps are you operating?
This is for monitoring/poking agentic coding sessions while I'm not at my computer. So, typically Claude, Emacs, and an overmind process running my app locally in different panes of a tmux window.
Call me old fashioned, but instead of adopting one of the "agentic coding orchestration frameworks" that seem to basically be reinventions of tmux, I've been tweaking my tried-and-true tmux-oriented workflow to incorporate agentic coding harnesses in an ergonomic way. I'm currently still using Claude Code, but getting Pi-curious as local models advance.
I will be dead, and many years will pass after that, before local models are capable to match those of the big companies, unless their intended use is banal.
It seems like we've reached a point where mid-grade frontier models like Sonnet are good enough for most day-to-day tasks. And Sonnet-grade models are already runnable on the higher end of consumer hardware. In which case, I can imagine a workflow where local models serve as workhorses for implementing plans that you may bump up to e.g. Opus or Sol to produce.

Yeah, I had issues with zellij too. I am sure it works great for many. I am too entrenched into tmux, will always find something to complain if I try to switch. And I have tried many times.

I have been using Wezterm, Aerospace on Mac, Neovim is something that I need. My config blows up on my powkiddy, (oomkilled) other than that its perfect, and on linux its vivaldib+ ublock origin, My self hosted jf + bookserver and using webdav for obsidian notes backup was the life saving trick i needed
Not exactly "recent", but recently dived into Guile Scheme and it has totally consumed almost all of my coding work. I used Common Lisp before but this dialect is without a doubt the best and simplest of the Lisp family.
Personally, mise is more "try in hurry" compatible. So it stuck. I have tried devenv as it seems to greatly simplify the setup. However, I had to get something done in a hurry. Tried devenv (which I installed around the time they launched) and got stuck with a load of outdated nix IIRC. So I also gave a quick try with mise, got started with fnox and it was considerably easier to get going.

Can you check again, the post box should not grow now. Safari auto zooms when it’s <16px so now we set it to that for iPhone UAs. The horizontal scrolling is so that you can read a thread without jumping pages, you don’t like it?

The same was said when they finally, and late, joined the AI driven assistant/features. This time, though, it is tried and tested technology, so it is in their advantage.
Maybe. I just don't buy it. I've seen no evidence that people actually want foldable phones. More power to Apple for giving it a shot and testing the market. I just lament the opportunity cost, versus them investing in almost anything else instead.
Since when do people need to want something to get it? 😅 The only drawback is the price; rather “hot” for this economy. I still think it will sell well. I am not spending a penny this year, for sure, but others will.
and an top of that, not calling it the iFold
i think theyre pretty cool. the tech market is too safe nowadays.
Totally, I'm glad they're at least trying something new (for Apple). It just underscores the general failure of imagination vibes I get from everything in tech nowadays. Most of the industry is breathlessly chasing a 20th century "golden age of scifi" vision of AI. And Apple's over there diligently trying to improve upon other companies' products from five years ago. At least no one's talking about the metaverse anymore.
Already started adding JS here and there, trying to keep it progressively enhanced, so JS-disabled works up to a certain point. Let’s see how far we can go with that model. Next step would be a full frontend rewrite (though trying not to change the feel of the website) and simply making actions not having to do full page (re)loads.
What do you think is better? #pollnotesfollow

Mark conversations about textlog with #metanotesfollow or #textlognotesfollow or #tlognotesfollow, so they’re not shown in ‘all’ or ‘new’ bc they’re annoying. It is becoming slow because I raised it to 100 items/page, and the cache invalidates whenever there are new posts, so you get the full cost of the query, after that it serves materialized from disk or memory which are faster. Perhaps it’s time to switch to Postgres. It’s an SQLite rn.

It’s more than that because it loads up to 5 replies for each for the expand action and it’s a complex query and it has to rank recency and reply depth, in order to show the most relevant content on collapsed vs expanded for the space we have.

Idk really, people tell me it’s going to be faster with Postgres. But I don’t think a lot will change, Postgres has better write performance, our costs are reads.

It remembers the last one you had before you left, but if you clear cookies/change devices then it doesn’t carry that. We could make the last choice db persistent. But default for new users I think “hot” is the best to find an interesting topic.

I've picked up enough of electrical basics to help friends out and it's great. It doesn't take too big a bump in skill/knowledge/experience to get to the point of fixing things and wiring new outlets. Hmm... I did have a retired electrician friend to help me get started tho. It kinda feels like "Lego for adults" 😀

Problem is that around here you're not allowed to wire 220V electricity without a professional certificate. Otherwise insurances don't cover. 12V and 24V systems are fine, but for household electricity you basically need to hire a professional

ooh maybe I revive hallucinate.site and add this feature but instead of being able to modify everything it would be limited to adding features to the game/world. And it’s the perfect domain, a site that’s been entirely mostly hallucinated.
