   If anyone's interested to see the slide examples but in Factor, I wrote them out: https://programming.dev/comment/6718327 Here's a bit: : add1 ( x -- x' ) 1 + ; : square ( x -- x' ) dup * ;

   Just in case you haven't tried it and want another option, Wezterm runs anywhere and does pretty much everything. But not AI/webapp stuff.

   Thanks, I look forward to this! For some possibly useful documentation feedback: I got confused. Normally I would install a tool, check out its `--help` content, then maybe try it out. I think based on my attempts to do this and read the

   Thanks, after trying on Firefox Mobile, I didn't have any luck getting audio on Chrome Mobile either. Which browsers are tested and expected to work on Android?

   Ever played with a more stack-oriented / concatenative / postfix language, like Factor? "," split [ string>number 5 > ] count or "," split [ string>number ] map [ 5 > ] count or &q

   Cool! I was going to ask how this differs in broad strokes from pz, but when I went to get the reference link found that pz hasn't been updated in two years, so that's one big difference. https://github.com/CZ-NIC&

   Sorry I haven't mastered linking lemmy communities yet, and that one doesn't work well for me now that I test it. More directly: https://programming.dev/c/devlogs

   Well this recently created Lemmy community is empty so far, but programming.dev/c/devlogs is an option. https://lemmy.guide/link?target=!devlogs@programming.dev

   Why isn't the solution for the offender to pay the cost of cleanup, and for the cleanup to happen?

    So will the money be used to clean up the debris?

    I feel like I missed it, but what kind of validation rules are used?

    I just want to say that I enjoy and recommend Philippe Petit's opinionated Why Knot? book.

    But it can be fixed in that regard by turning it into a constrictor knot instead, IIUC.

    Not in New York, at least. Foo rhymes with Blue and Flu, while Foot rhymes with Soot and Put (same vowel sound as Book, Look, Cook, etc.).

    That makes sense, but my problems are in my own area, already downloaded.

    I know I'm being repetitive in all these config file threads, but you might like NestedText, which only provides strings, lists, and maps.

    > The only one that is close to equal in simplicity is JSON, which only allows booleans, numbers, strings and arrays/dictionaries. NestedText only allows strings, arrays, and dictionaries, has a proper specification, and you never n

    Absolutely agree! If you haven't checked it out, NestedText takes this approach.

    > IMO, configuration file formats should only ever have text as primitive type. Anything else should be defined in another layer. I very much agree. If you haven't checked it out, NestedText is an excellent format that takes this se

    I've been trying to like it, but it doesn't have named places results like I'd really want, and it even fails to locate straight up addresses sometimes. I'm keeping it installed for now and will keep checking back.

    Unfortunately that's not a spec, only a (language-specific) tool. For a similar spec that offers no types outside of string, list, and dict, there's NestedText.

    > The problem is there's no clean way to abstract strings, bools, lists, objects, trees, etc. into a human-readable configuration syntax that does not have a footgun. My favorite take on this by far is that any types beyond string,

    NestedText seems very close to what a strictyaml spec could be/have been. I'm curious if you've engaged with that project/format, and what you think of it.

    But the whitespace handling involved is an extra complication, at least the provided example fails to be parsed by `tomli`, which is following the currently release TOML spec: https://github.com/hukkin/tomli/issues

    Thanks for your work! I first encountered strictyaml years ago and have used it, happily. I especially appreciate that you made clear arguments for what ought to be excluded from a configuration format itself, and how proper validation ulti

    Portia as a comparison and a name is also used in the scifi book Echopraxia, a sequel to Blindsight, by Peter Watts. I recommend these things to folks who like augmented humans, weird brains, aliens, and vampires.
