til the most used web engine is not Webkit or Gecko -- it's Blink. Funny that I have been hearing about the others for years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_browser_engines

@veer66 as in, use magit to delete files off the disk? Yeah; I think magit "k" removes them from tracking, magit "K" actually deletes the files.

#Gitlab can be self-hosted. This gets around things like user limits, which are a current blocker. But should we? Pro, cons, alternatives? Dear Internet, please advise

@Crell I did look at yours, but Stack Overflow errors have taught me the hard way that PHP has changed a lot recently. Isn't much of PHP different since you wrote the book?

I'm looking for recent books or up-to-date text on #FunctionalProgramming with PHP. #PHP is changing rapidly and all the books I see are nearly a decade old. Any good recommendations? #FP

@jdst258 @fsf Skype does real-time voice-to-text (I found out by accident). Anyone else?

I had a bash file that was suddenly failing. After TOO LONG debugging, I found that one of the included functions had been broken so it ended with `fi}` instead of `fi\n}` so a linebreak had been removed. As a result the cron job that depended on that script was failing. #BeautifulBash

ah, that's the stuff. Because Gnu `date` can create Julian dates but then cannot read them. #babashka #EayNumber #JulianDates #Clojure

@FinchHaven yeah, this instance has custom code and so deviated from the main branch, apparently a while ago

@borkdude thanks!

@javahippie @borkdude Thanks for that!

@borkdude you mean the `java.text.SimpleDateFormat` ? I searched all over the internet and that is the only thing I could find to get the function right

#Mastodon now has "edit post"? Since when?

@borkdude Well, it isn't one line, but it is basically one function. It took some research into how and what libraries to use, but here it is: https://gitlab.com/toryanderson/bb-julian-converter/

@borkdude sounds like it might turn out to be a one-liner then!

I can, for the moment, rest in peace (at least, on the issue of getting my portable docked triple-monitor setup stable with #exwm). https://orys.us/ww

Todo: write a #Clojure #Babashka script to convert from a given JDN to verbose date. So `babashka-date 2024030` => `Tue 2024.01.30`. Apparently GNU bash `date` can OUTPUT formats that it cannot intake.
