Just used the phrase “proprietary second brain” in a note and my goodness but nerds throw words together in strange ways.

I might maybe I dunno it’s hard to tell sometimes but I might have started getting the hang of org-roam.

hackers.town: 2020-10-25 Sun 20:18

so anyways i hear org mode has a supplemental programming editor. Emacs or something. Nice accessory to have in in a pinch.

okay init the site, edit like the tutorial says, and run stack build and

did you just download GHC again?

oh no what are you doing

Progress 17/163?

Are you reinstalling everything you just installed?

Really making me miss the speedy build time of Jekyll here.

hackers.town: 2020-10-24 Sat 00:40

Done. stack exec hakyll build was mercifully swift. But heaven help me if I ever want to run this on a different machine. That was just over an hour from stack install hakyll.

on the other hand i just ordered some new pants

hackers.town: 2020-10-23 Fri 09:39

spoiler: I did not order new pants.

But I thought about it.

Look they can’t all be soothing lo-fi meditations. That would be unhealthy.

Installed Haskell Stack and the Hakyll static site generator on a whim, and twenty minutes later I have vowed to never make a “half of CPAN” dependency joke again.

Mission Protocol is the code of conduct for folks whose salary depends on them not understanding codes of conduct.

I got some nice keyboards. I should change their layouts.

Because ergonomics?

Uh, sure. Yeah.

hackers.town: 2020-10-22 Thu 21:54

The warm fuzzy of having implemented a requested feature.

New keyboard. My love of quiet is instantly enamored with the cherry silent red switches.

Need more than 15 seconds to see what I think of typing on the dang thing. Off to a good start though.

@y0x3y For taskwarrior I use a +work tag, then create contexts for explicitly include or exclude the tag depending on whether I consider myself on the clock.

Confirmed that my ballot has been received so yes indeed #IVoted.

For residents of King County in Washington State, that check is done at:

I’ve started treating task tickets like I do functions — or sentences, when I’m in one of my more coherent moods.

Every time I want to say “and” in a task description, that’s a subtask.

Used Chrysalis to appease insistent Model 01 muscle memory and me-specific ergonomics with the Atreus. First tweaked layout, unless you count 25 years of swapcaps.

First tweaked layout that will stay will the keyboard, anyways.

@mr_z_ro @banjofox and for me anyways, those feeds distract but they don’t soothe.

hackers.town: 2020-10-18 Sun 16:41

eyes watering

slight whimper

twinge of regret

good salsa

It doesn’t feel like I did that much, until I try documenting it.

hackers.town: 2020-10-18 Sun 21:17

@cstanhope It’s remarkable exactly how much activity we mentally abstract into a shrug.

hackers.town: 2020-10-18 Sun 21:18

@cstanhope Journaling is extremely helpful for keeping it solid.

Windows flagging my compiled “Hello World” binary as a virus.

I am way more amused than I should be. Time for bed.

(apparently very much a known issue the #RedLang devs struggle with)

Instead of buying another new keyboard I got some typing games and plugged in the Atreus.

We’ll see how that goes.

Making sure I’m ready for a couple hours at somebody else’s house.

@nomad ah that sounds like it would be really useful if I was ever in a situation where I knew what I was doing.
