I am officially Totally Over Tailwind and I can't see myself using it again. Plain CSS really is so much nicer when you know a bit about what you're doing. My markup is so much easier to handle and read now. Everything's just... simpler and less noisy, and I can make big appearance changes without having to change a bunch of non-CSS code?
@brandon TBH mostly moffed that I can't find my breadboard and random resistors and diodes.
@brandon I'm thinking I'll start with a puck.js since it has a good form factor for what I want. Defs gonna get some ESP32s. Seems like the way to go nkw that ESP8266 is less popular :o

I am very pleased to be able to share that I've been awarded a grant by NLnet Foundation's #NGI Zero program (@NGIZero)
You can read all about it in my most recent blog post: https://cryptography.dog/blog/announcing-webxdc-evolve/
Looks like I've misplaced my Arduino over the past 10 years of moves. 😰 Time to get a new one I guess!
@jonny @evangelos That's awesome. I wonder how people will advertise the connection and actually distribute the native side. Managing both a web extension and a native app feels a bit niche if both have guis. No or low guis seem easier to justify but feels like there's fewer user facing things that could be successful with that setup. Stuff for nerds tho is an easier sell.
Ahhb this is where an FPAA would be great to do some preliminary signal processing to make it easier to find just thw spikes I need to send the microcontroller
@Filene powered! They're super cool IMO. Event driven feels better than the mainloop in arduino IMO.
How fucked up would it be to use JavaScript on a microcontroller to read from EMGs to give me a new usb mouse/keyboard that's just a bunch of wires I strap to myself? https://www.espruino.com/USB

Probably not for typing any time soon but maybe for window manager shortcuts and moving my cursor?
This was around when coffeescript was a thing and transpilers were all the rage.
Fun fact one of my first public speaking things was the Otrawa Ruby meetup where I was showing folks how to compile ruby to run in web browsers :P
@am@decept.org i treat discords and group chats like forums
ms and I feel that. I just wanna keep up to date on all these feeds :P
@am@decept.org PHP people need to use WASM more just for the meme.
Honesrly the "niche computer stuff" fandom seems pretru chill compared to a lot of them. People aren't gonna get that heated about shipping a php+js app or whatever.

Many yearn for the "good old days" of the web. We could have those good old days back — or something even better — and if anything, it would be easier now than it ever was.

Finally got it to a usable state. Still need to copy over a bunch of configs and secrets but the SMB integration in Dolphin seems busted so I'll need to do a bit more there
Well I got the day off work today and decided it was a good time to switch operating system distros from #ChimeraOS to #EndevourOS
I decided to go with the ultra minimal setup with no built in desktop environment so I'll be building one up from scratch. Gonna start by experimenting with Niri and seeing how far I can get with it

disconcerting that "reading a lot of code and thinking really hard" is still unparalleled as a way to find bugs

Riot Medicine is a full length text book covering the practice of evidence-informed street medicine. It's most intended for those without medical training
Riot Medicine Bridge Guide is intended for healthcare workers who want to join social movements and use their medical skills to help others.
There are other shorter guides like the Riot Medicine Field Guide, Basic First Aid for Emergencies, and the micro zine Street Medics' Checklist.
