Every time I dabble with bash scripting, Iām confounded by stuff, like the hoops you seem to have to jump through to do equality comparison
Feel spoiled by Clojure š
zsh scripting is a close to programming perl as I get normally
(I did a lot of perl in the past, way in the past, like last millenium past š )
Morning
Morning! :rain_cloud:
Good morning!
@jasonbell obviously it is raining in Fife
Iāve got Fish and Chips for dinner tonight. Iām already excited.
The last leg of our Wednesday evening walk goes right past our chippie,. After a five mile walk, thereās no way Iād be able to refuse that chippie smell!
I go the other way round, food first and then walk. If thereās a ton of curry sauce down my front then Iāll abandon the walk š
LOL. One of my saddest memories was that of my disappointment as I started a Peak District walk a few years ago. I spent all my change on a chicken curry pastie, then walked about 500 yards down a footpath before dropping it in a muddy puddle. I nearly cried.
Happened to me when I was 5 years old. At the butcher shop, kids always got a free piece of bologna sausage. Went outside, dropped it, it rolled onto the street and was overrun by a police car. I cried
(This caused no long-term prejudice against police)
Defund the police - then they canāt afford sausage damaging cars š
Strongest case for hovercars, yet
TIL "bologna sausage" I wonder if that was actually a Mortadella, Lyoner or Gelbwurst.
tbh had to look up how to translate āFleischwurstā in the first place
TIL "WWW" means "Weck, Worscht un Woi". Thank you wikipedia.
As a fomer Mainzer, I can confirm
Lesson learnt : never walk and eat anything Iād not be willing to lose š
Well, my day started with a good morning, but from there it has been my least productive open source day ever. Needed to make a new feature Windows compatible and of course I then remote desktop into my Windows machine and just fix it, right? Well, wrong. My whole Windows dev workflow was just broken for no reason that I could find. All day, just trying to figure it out. Now, all of a sudden, it started working again. I have as little clue why as with why it stopped working. This wouldnāt be so bad if it wasnāt that the thing has kept me mostly in Windows all day and that kills my spirit like few other things do. Anyway, letās see if I can get the original issue fixed before my Calva day is over.
Leaving aside quantum technology, the best random number generators work by running deterministic programs on Windows
And the actual issue seems to be a quantum spin thing too. Thereās no issue now when I have the tools to fix it.
And I could now release the new Calva and quite the Remote Desktop app. The latter felt best. š
YIL about using match-string for capture groups beyond 9 https://itectec.com/superuser/mac-how-to-use-more-than-9-regex-capture-groups-in-emacs/
Oh, guess what I managed the other day? I managed to convince MacOS to stop hi-jacking C-M-d
which is paredit-forward-down
. So now I can use that short cut. Yay
huh, macos doesn't seem to be hijacking that for me...
The chord I use for this is Control-Command-D
(Iāve somewhere perhaps in my emacs config mapped Command
to be Meta
ah, that explains it - i have Option
as Meta
i've been doing it for several decades - no RSI or sudden death yet š¤
Right. Even though Iāve been on macs for quite some time now, I must have spent 20 years or so on unix and linux, so moving meta
one key to the left was never really an option
.
but yeah, i have thought command
might be nicer... but i'm scared to fiddle with the towering house of cards that is my macos keybindings
