Hi all, another programming language update from me. It's time to move on from #Nushell, say goodbye to #Junelang, and look to the road ahead.

Some more info here: https://www.sophiajt.com/following-new-paths-ahead/

@sophiajt Sorry to hear about June being shelved! Freeing up time and mental energy for new projects is great, though!

@eniko I did the same thing today and I regret it already

so @TomF talked me into making it so blending colors on the console is true blending rather than resolving back to one of the 64 palette colors (so that the output is always 64 color)

i made a utility that takes an image and converts it into a tile layer with only 16 base colors with the framebuffer overlaid using all 64 colors with alpha blending and i can't help but wonder if this isn't too powerful

Processed version of the FF7 image with light ordered dither. It's slightly crunchier, but retains all of the detail and looks almost as good
Base color layer for the processed image. It has very few colors and is fully opaque and very noisy
Blend color layer for processed image. It has a lot more colors but is still very noisy both in terms of colors and opacity

@eniko that's really cool!

It's Sunday.

I could do taxes.

Or a Swift Playdate project.

Hm.

@ctietze never taxes

how do programmers keep track of types, in their heads? in comments? in function names?

daviwil, (edited )
@daviwil@fosstodon.org avatar

@offset___cyan variable names can indicate type in some cases, like 'file-name' versus 'count'. Names can also imply a record type, like 'person'.

Trickier is the collection types, like if you have a variable named 'people', maybe it could be a list or a vector. Better to have a consistent naming convention to help with that, but AFAIK there is no broadly used convention for that

🔴 Today on #SystemCrafters Live, we will write a custom Org export backend that will convert Org Mode documents to Scheme! The goal is to produce equivalent documents in the Skribe format used by Skribilo for Scheme-hackable document production.

Is this a good or bad idea? We'll find out!

@civodul it worked! Needs a lot of clean up and support for more Org element types, but I was able to use Skribilo to publish an HTML page from the output by the end of the stream.

Any doom emacs users here? Got any favourite blog posts, features, etc that you wanna share 🥺

daviwil,
@daviwil@fosstodon.org avatar

@bashbunni @zanpreston debugging support varies a lot based on which language you're using, but I imagine Doom has pretty decent built in configurations for the more popular languages.

Which ones have you tried to use?

had a little post-release depression after finishing that jam game

makes sense since it's been several years since I released something playable - probably worth releasing more smaller things in future

daviwil,
@daviwil@fosstodon.org avatar

@MenacingMecha being focused toward an achievable goal is pretty addictive, hard to capture that feeling in larger projects I think. Finishing projects is a slog

@mntmn I take revenge by causing a prompt dialog to be raised and let it sit there overnight, waiting for a confirmation that will never be given

From the recent Daring Fireball footnote mention of TableFlipApp.com I noticed a sales increase of ~$600 total.

The bummer is:

It's a 5:1 Mac App Store to direct sales ratio.

I did not expect so many people to purchase on the MAS!

daviwil,
@daviwil@fosstodon.org avatar

@ctietze Yeah, must be. People are pretty acclimated to official app stores now, maybe it somehow feels illicit (or inconvenient, at the least) to Apple users to buy something "off-market"?

@ctietze I miss those days...
