Thoughts on the Epiphany Browser? (not Chrome botnet crap, or even FF-based, GTK+ WebKit-based) (+ A good framework for web automation?)
I honestly have issues browsing to even the simplest of non-static pages. I think it’s like, the graphical version of lynx(1) or w3m(1). I think it’s based on X’s browser right?

Integration Tests - What's New?
Nearly a decade back I wrote a lot of browser CI tests with headless chrome as well as browser stack. I loved the idea, but they just didn’t handle things being a bit outside of perfect IRL, like taking a moment longer to load etc. They ended up having a lot of waits in them, taking a long time to write and were prone to being...

A tokenizer for EBNF written in R7RS Scheme | A full dive into EBNF, how it works, and its relationship to Chomsky Hierarchy (gist.github.com)
About a few days ago I posted this, asking for help to implement the parser. It seems like I boomer’d and I forgot to set the Gist to public. This is public (hopefully!). Someone did gave me a link, but I kinda could not ‘parse’ it (get it? get it?). I still would appreciate it if you would give me guidance in parsing with...
