It was a simple task. "Just put a notice on the front page." I planned an hour, just to be safe. See, I've just changed OS and haven't done this process since then.

✓ (> "Add warning to page" 1minute)
✓ (> "style warning clearly with Bulma" 10minutes)
✓ (> "learn & write custom css for `a:not[href]`" 15minutes)
😦 ⟶ build and deploy script fails on new system
✓ (> "replace shebang `#!/bin/bash` with 2minutes)
✓ (> [learn to execute "npx shadowcljs build" since #guix doesn't encourage global "shadowcljs build"] 15 minutes)
✓ (> {"no rsync" "guix install rsync"} 1minute)
😦 ⟶ build and deploy succeeds, but now the site has an "htaccess" error. 😕 The site doesn't use .htaccess, never has
✓ (> compare apache .conf with other working site 10minute no difference)

I think I just did my first "programming" in CSS. For the work in progress, my router simply provides no URLs for paths not yet created. On the table of contents I finally made a #css rule "a:not([href])" to be clearer than just having a click do nothing.

Shoot. My default "match vowels" regexp doesn't work on Portuguese, where there are all those accented vowels.

TIL https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMPP . Discussion about decentralized messaging solutions brought this up, for when paranoia (of which I have a healthy dose) dissuade you from Telegram or Signal. I once knew it as Jabber, but in one form or another the solution has been around since 2010. I'm still tired from getting all my contacts to move to Telegram from SMS (evil by circumstance) and WhatsApp (evil by FB control), though. And, personally, I'm still intrigued by #DeltaChat as a means of reducing the buy-in cost. Or I can just stay where I am on Telegram. 🤷

or, anyone doing serious computer troubleshooting. I just had this while trying to install my printer in #guix.

I mean, they are Bing results, but I still feel like Microsoft is trolling me... #guix

Like maybe what other apps you run, or easier access to your location or phone number, or the privilege of irritating you with popup "limited time exclusive" ads.

They will pay you to use their app instead of your browser. How does that make business sense? Because they are getting something about you from the app that browser safety doesn't allow.

shadow-cljs #clojurescript requires npm. There is no npm package in #guix, but a simple `guix install node` will get you your npm command.

Whoa -- ready to upgrade my #clojure skills with a whole lot of binge watching! https://lambdaisland.com/blog/2022-04-25-making-lambda-island-free

Why LISP hasn't won? Simple. Because the world is mediocre.

Does anyone else have the feeling they are just fighting GitHub more and more to work with it? Hoping over-security and feature freemium-rot don't afflict @gitlab as much.
