   I don't know if it counts as rich, but I rolled my own terminal UI in my email client meli [0]. There's a web demo here: https://meli.delivery/wasm2.html that is the client compiled to webassembly and the ANSI es

   Hmm I might add one thanks for the suggestion. I don't use containers for this since it's just python WSGI on apache2 (no database image required since it's sqlite3)

   Thank you! Indeed there are no tests. I'm not familiar with testing in Django or web apps in general but I want to add some once I figure out what and how I should be testing.

   This year in a bout of melancholy boredom I started typesetting Anatomy of Melancholy in LaTeX with the goal of releasing it under a free software license and the pdf under creative commons. I still haven't finished all the little deta

   Interesting that values are still coerced if possible. I'd expect STRICT to be absolute in this case.

   Also noteworthy is the Kelmscott Chaucer, an edition of the works of Chaucer by Morris and pre-Raphaelite Edward Burne-Jones which is an extremely beautiful work of art: https://otis.libguides.com/books_and_graphic_design&#x

    Don't know to be honest. For now it's "complete" in that posting, tagging, etc are all implemented. I'm sure needs for new features will appear if traffic and use goes up. One thing I've already thought about i

    Bots and crawlers hit up every single page because I posted it here. Should stop eventually.

    I actually started a simple HN-like site in python+Django two weeks ago because I was bored, which you can study and use/modify since it's free software: https://sic.nessuent.xyz/ https://sic.nessuent.x

    I'd pay for a book in this style on mathematical descriptions of cartographic visualisations in general.

    I've consumed a small amount of snus and it always ended up making me feel sick. Never had it with vaping or cigarettes though. But snus was a far superior nicotine experience before the bad stuff started.

    Huion H950P, no screen like yours. How much have you tried getting used to it? It felt weird at first like you say but now it feels quite natural like writing on paper.

    No write support but should be easy :) it doesn't handle filename conflicts too. But searching and reading files works great.

    I certainly know what you mean, but this article is a tech demo and not a recommendation for a note workflow.

    The problem here is unicode normalisation, a standard procedure of replacing equivalent glyphs (the "character units" a user sees) until only a specific set of graphemes (unicode character points split into groups that form glyphs

    Thank you :) It was just a demo on how I found sqlite's indexing useful for something I thought would require an extension or external tools. I don't keep notes myself, I was working with full text search because I was indexing my

    According to the RFC, even v4 requires the version bits set. Is it worth it? Depends on what you want. For stuff like the original post, even an AUTOINCREMENT integer primary key or even a title/slug text key would do just fine. For in

    During lockdown I got a cheap Huion drawing tablet for my desktop Linux and it has been great for figuring programming or mathematics problems out "on paper" but with non of the cons of running out of paper. I use the xournal++ ap

    Very interesting. I wish there was a way to share basic medicine etc to improve their life quality without further damage to their existence. It's a shame to have means of reducing suffering and not share them with your fellow beings.
