#neovim users, if you need little bits of lua, for example to set up treesitter, do you:
Use init.vim with a lua heredoc
Use init.vim and require a lua file
Use init.lua andbhavevlots of vim.o, vim.go, etc
I'm wondering what the cleanest approach might be.

Js13kGames is a coding competition for web game developers with the size limit of … you guessed it: 13kB!!!
It's unbelievable what gaming gems come out of this!

P.S.: But why do I have to fail already at the second level in the game GHOSTED?
When writing a #daemon that follows best practices (handling of #detaching with a locked #pidfile, and #SIGHUP for #configuration #reload), an extremely simple "init script" will do (reliably!) for #FreeBSD's mewburn-rc.

Maybe it's my age, or maybe they really don't make things like they used to
I don't mind letting Jetbrains know that their IDE has got worse though (see alt-text for my full rant)
People who code for a living: how much of the code you've written in your career has ended up getting thrown away before anyone used it?
(Boost for reach, if you'd be so kind)
This isn't an abstract thought experiment. If causal consistency is broken in the #WorldFabric timeline (which is like a sandboxed environment that apps run in) the practical effect is that the same app run from different vantage points (i.e. user positions) could converge on different results. The timeline has a "base state" that's ~200ms in the past, and when hashes don't match in the base state those objects get redownloaded in full. If something internal to the system can break causal consistency then it'd be like having 300ms of latency in an app with crappy networking. A very bad look when the whole point of the system is smooth networking.
Video #4 is live, and we're using AI to build the class puzzle game Tetris and add it to our retro game site! The game is live, so watch the video, and then head over to picopixl.com to play it for free!

For people who use Github and Slack together, do you have a workflow getting Github notifications in Slack that's too disruptive?
Anything that doesn't send email notifications, really.
I find I mostly process Github notifications at https://github.com/notifications but it feels like I should be getting a notification somewhere else, too.

Just published a guide on handling strings in Linux! Learn how to safely manage text and avoid common pitfalls.
Check it out at https://www.spsanderson.com/steveondata/posts/2025-05-02/ and let me know your thoughts!
Sometimes u learn the hard way that locking the frame rate is just better than letting it cap at whatever the system can handle, only to be dragged down by almost everything. Hey but it's good practice for optimization though!
Guess it's really everyday discovering something brand new.

Maybe I should try out #ChatGTP or other #Algorithms to help me with #coding a #design for my #blog instead of struggling with it, because I'm not a #professional developer.
I should use all available #tools at my disposal to reach my goal more easily, instead of spending extra #time or also #paying extra for it.
But I won't call it #AI, it's still a relatively #dumb algorithm, also called #Parrot Algorithm!
Manually importing data as audio in Audacity sounds super cool but takes a while and slows down my composition. Today I'm automating it in Rust!
