Booked an Interrail Pass to travel to #emfcamp, a hacker camp in the UK! #emf2024

Getting excited! πŸ˜† This will be the first time I use the Channel Tunnel!

@blinry @piko is it possible to do the previous days' #regexle puzzle in case I missed one (or more)?

@KarlE One hack is to adjust your system clock to the desired day! :D

Presenting: Regexle, a wordle-like game for nerds πŸ€“

Guess the secret regular expression by testing strings against it!

@piko and I might be two years late with this project, but here we go!

You can create your own puzzles in the sidebar, and get a link to share with others!

We have daily regexes to guess for the next month, but feel free to send us your ideas, and we'll add them!

Also, we'd be curious to get feedback for how well the site works for people using screenreaders, and what we could improve!

@rachel @fernsehmuell Ohh! Can you send us a screenshot of how it looks like? @piko

@dasnessie @deraffe Lovely idea! :D

Added that suggestion as an issue: https://gitlab.com/sudo_piko/regexle/-/issues/53

@piko @fernsehmuell @rachel @codingcatgirl @keko We deployed a fix, can you try again? :)

Also, thanks @nordern, that was totally the cause!

@plusmid Is this for a regex you entered yourself? We check if any of our English words match it because we want to give one example that matches, and one which doesn't match. That's inspired by the board game Zendo! But maybe we could still let people play it without getting initial information in that case?

Or can you modify your regex to match some English words? @piko

blinry,
@blinry@chaos.social avatar

@Aedius We accept a regex as correct as soon as it matches the same words from our list of English words as the other one – otherwise, we'd need to test regexes for equality, which seems conplicated :D And often, there are multiple ways to phrase a solution.

But we could maybe show the "intended" regex, as well!

@syralist No, there's a daily puzzle :)
@piko

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

We totally forgot to mention: There's a new Regexle every day!

For today's puzzle, you still have ninety minutes if you're in the UTC+2 time zone! After that, you will have to manipulate your system clock if you want to play it :D

@GermanENtrans Can you share a screenshot, or elaborate? @piko

@threedaymonk For today's regex? If you can reproduce that, we'd love a screenshot! :) @GermanENtrans @piko

Regexle got some new features since @piko and I launched it on Wednesday, thanks to @spax and emilylime!

  • Dark mode! πŸ•ΆοΈ
  • Emoji stats to share on social media (see #regexle) 🟩
  • All players get the same starting words for fairness βš–οΈ

https://regexle.ithea.de

Great to see y'all having fun with it! :) Keep the links to custom puzzles coming, this will fill our backlog for daily regexles!

Also, if someone feels like writing a random generator for regexes… https://gitlab.com/sudo_piko/regexle/-/issues/55

Got collaboration working between VS Code and Neovim today! Really exciting! \o/

What features would you like to see in a tool like this? πŸ§‘β€πŸ’»

A VS Code window and a Neovim window are open next to each other. When you type in one window, it is reflected in the other window!

The project is called https://github.com/ethersync/ethersync It's in an early state.

You can learn more about the protocol between the editor and the daemon here: https://github.com/ethersync/ethersync/blob/main/docs/daemon-editor-protocol.md#editor-to-daemon

Between peers, it's currently a plain https://automerge.org sync protocol, but we plan to extend it with ephemeral communication, like cursor positions.

@KuestenKeks Yeah, we accept solutions that have the same matches in our English dictionary. Maybe we should add the users' words in addition, @piko?

My Framework laptop is here! ✨ It's a modular, repairable laptop that I've been hearing really good things about!

This is the "DIY edition", so let's assemble all the pieces together!

Super happy with my Framework laptop by the way!

The module system is great. I printed a snack drawer today! Now I can always take three peanuts with me!
