Looking forward for a 20ish billion parameter version

It's vim.NIL

It's out!

I'm working on an experimental display server, for educational purposes and fun:

https://terminal.pink/bgce/index.html

Or https://github.com/blmayer/bgce

The idea is to have the minimum needed for a usable graphical experience. So drawing to drm buffer and handling inputs basically. It's been fun to do.

I am build a toolkit for it too:

https://terminal.pink/bgtk/index.html

Or https://github.com/blmayer/bgtk

I think it is nice that we can just write to a buffer and it appears on the screen. Very little abstraction is needed. Hope you like it.

I also made some progress on my hardware projects, but I'll keep a low profile for now.

I find it funny that people say "only" for a setup of 64GB RAM and 8GB VRAM. That's a LOT. I'd have to spend thousands to get that setup.

Apart from security concerns I don't think this is bad, if it is well tested and still runs it fast, then there is no need to spend a lot of money in new software or hardware.

I have 2 fronts actually:

1. Hardware a. Trying to create my own mechanical keyboard: already modeled, how finding a suitable printer. b. Waiting for a display to arrive so I can wire into my digital calendar. c. Waiting my modem HAT to arrive to go to phase 2 of my self hosted server.

1. Software a. Preparing my next blog post. b. Working on my distro.

NB: I know my certificate expired.

it goes like this:

    <footer>
      <hr>
      <h3>Responses:</h3>
       <object data=/mail/uptime.html type=text/html></object>
       <a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=uptime">
         reply
       </a>
    </footer>

so when I receive an email it is appended to this mail/uptime.html file.

I don't like it because I wanted it to be just one p for each email, but the object has a whole page, like head, stylesheet, and it's separated from the outside context in some ways, not really sure.

Glad to hear you migrated to plain HTML and CSS, I think this creates a healthier environment: it removes bloat and is more efficient.

My question is how do you update your feed, sitemap and other stuff?

I've been doing it by shell scripts, I'm not 100% satisfied, I also create gemini pages from HTML, which changes content a lot.

Another question: how do you handle comments to your posts?

Because my blog is a static site, so there is no processing on the server end, and I don't want third parties to handle this. What I've done is adding a handler to my mail server, so it writes the mail sent to articles to the right place. And the HTML uses an <object> to load them. I don't like it either, but works. Any suggestions for this things?

Thanks!

I don't know much about this area, but I'm really fond of Dieter Ram's design. See "less but better" and google about him.

I'm working on a gemini web browser called astro (https://github.com/blmayer/astro), so far it has 50 stars, I'm super happy.

Also I have a SMPT server featuring automatic encryption using the WKD standard: https://dovel.email the idea is that people could self host their email easily. Maybe I'll make a SAAS for this.

My webring is mostly for fun and testing stuff: https://derelict.garden

Now they are hosted on my raspberry pi zero on my living room!

I wish I had seen this 5 years ago, just before being one "founding engineer". Wonderful talk, thanks for posting this.

During the COVID19 pandemics I wrote an app to help my mom cook with anything she had at home, so she could go fewer times to the supermarket, considering her heavy smoking and old age, the best is to avoid exposure.

The app is just a search where you input the ingredients you have and you get a list of possible food you can cook with it. I crawled over 6000 recipes over the network. In fact I have over 120k recipes in Portuguese but can't display them due to legal restrictions. After some time I decided to create a site and open-source it:

https://feitaemcasa.com

I added some recipes in english as well.

If Gmail and other big providers reject email with correct DMARC, DKIM and SPF then these technologies are not doing their jobs. Why have this if you can't trust them? We need something new here, something really secure.

I am self hosting my email and had the luck that after setting up DKIM I'm no longer being sent to spam. I think it worths the effort.

Every project that tells users to install it by `curl <some.url> | sh` gives me goosebumps. This is a serious security concern, projects should not enforce this. IMHO this project should be installed either by cloning the repo and building or by providing packages for most common distros.
