Fun little aside: What if a web app was a local utility? Like a little tool that gave you live previews of markdown files as you made changes to them in your regular editor?
Here’s a 30-second demo video of just that in Kitten.

Es gibt wirklich viel, was man an #KI kritisieren kann (hab ich selbst auch schon gemacht), aber ich habe wirklich schon sehr viel Zeit sparen können durch die Verwendung von ChatGPT oder GitHub Copilot im beruflichen Kontext. Ja, man kann stundenlang durch die Dokumentation von WordPress-Plugins googeln. Oder man hat die Antwort innerhalb von 10 Sekunden direkt in seinem Editor.
I often use the #markdown web WYSIWIG editor of #Nextcloud and I really like it. 👍
However, I dont know how to enter or paste markdown source code. Is that possible?

I get that we should let go of the idea of hegemony over the language, but being called a dialect still burns a bit
it's so funny to me that a normal, understandable, two page sized python program can implement a real hardware NIC driver that someone can use for realtime work like typing in an SSH session, under concurrent heavy load, and it gives you single ms digit latency
this is the entire transmit queue code. you can look at it in its entirety on one editor screen and understand it. it uses normal python idioms and doesn't even touch USB directly

VERY disappointed in GitHub refusing to support the LaTeX `\colorbox` (outright banned) or `\textcolor` macros (seemingly only very limited support) or any CSS solution to allow one to create colored text in Markdown files... I was hoping to create color swatches as shown in the attached preview (in VSCode), but just none of this works on GitHub...

New in Kitten¹: Markdown fragments
You can now write your Markdown in separate .fragment.md files and `import()` them as if they were JavaScript modules, just like you can with HTML and CSS fragments.
And while they don’t support props, they do support slots (including named slots, which you can use as poor man’s props.)
Enjoy!

I am trying very hard to only stay within the Unreal graph editor for all code logic (for portability reasons). But oh wow it ends up creating some pretty large graphs. And, yes, I'm constantly creating a common function library but then it means keeping a lot of tabs open.

I have written C# top-level code before, but I'm obviously suffering a "brain freeze" right now: Why does this simple top-level C# statement say "The name 'Console' does not exist in this context", even though I'm compiling with .NET 7.x and .NET 8 (well past .NET 5 that top-level statements need)? 😳
Console.WriteLine("hello world"); //System.Console works

The 67th edition of De Programmatica Ipsum is out!
This month we argue that "editor wars" are a pointless loss of time; in the Library section, we review "Code" by Charles Petzold; and in our Vidéothèque section, we watch a video from the Fireship channel.

Single-file execution for #Java, #Kotlin, and #golang is a neat feature for #JetBrains Fleet.
Absolutely incredible. I wonder how generalizable this is. https://mas.to/@Cykelero/111923992964939002
For now, being AI-literate feels like a cheat code to life. But once everyone learns to prompt, will it be "the end of busywork" or the surrender of truth-seeking to the law of averages?

Day 4 of attempting to daily drive postmarketOS Linux on a OnePlus 6T:
📶 I felt brave this morning, so I handed over my SIM card to Linux. At first, the phone didn't recognise the card, but the wiki page helped me resolve the problem quickly. I had to increase the config value `sim_wait_time` and reboot the phone to make it work. Mobile data and receiving texts work flawlessly. I haven't tried sending texts and making calls yet.

When I started rewriting Godot editor on iPad, I figured I could only pull that stunt with the productivity of SwiftUI -otherwise it would just be a failed project.
I feared two things (a) that it would be too complex for SwiftUI and would break in odd ways and (b) that would only work for a few UI bits would need to resort extensively to UIKit and be bogged down on it.
So far SwiftUI has been flawless and delivered on the promise-barely any UIKit code exists and the reliability …

I kept forgetting to check into the #APRSThursday #hamradio net. So what did I do? Set a reminder? Nah, forgot to read those.
Instead, I did what no sane person would:

I’ve never really related to the folks that keep hundreds of browser tabs open... I generally clean up after myself in that regard.
My code editor, on the other hand. Oh man, that’s a mess.

@… I think it shared some code for sure. I made some website with heavy use of <table> which was a cutting edge tech back then and later gave up because IRC people told me it's shit and real devs are writing html with Pajączek (popular html editor in Poland back then).
Looking at non-WordPress options for a professional website. Which CMS do you suggest? I'm looking for user-friendliness (I never want to touch the WordPress Block Editor again) and excellent #accessibility. All recommendations welcome so long as they involve a minimum of handwritten code/markdown (no static sight generators, please)!
Very excited about the latest feature/workflow I’m adding to Kitten. I call it… 🥁
✨ Streaming HTML ✨
Implement back-end functionality and stream HTML updates to the client without writing any front-end JavaScript.
Just give your forms names and listen for them in an onConnect() handler you export from your page. Kitten handles everything else – setting up a WebSocket route for you, mapping triggers to events, etc. – thanks to Kitten

✍️ Can you code on an iPad? Some thoughts from my experience at #IndieWebCamp Brighton a couple of weekends ago.
There's definitely some potential here, but right now the #iPad isn't a brilliant code editor. If you're wanting to give it a go, I've put together some tips as well.
