@gaditb Regarding communications: I think their website is cute. It is something they have put a lot of care and heart into and I think it shows.

It also very obviously is something that takes a lot of time. And I feel it is important to point out unless you are grant‐funded or have tenure (a very very small minority), time is not a luxury that most working programmers have. Most people writing open‐source code for their jobs are programmers at understaffed public (or at least public‐interest) institutions with portfolios that vastly outsize their workforce, and people who write open‐source code in their free time are typically scrounging for a few hours outside of work that they have to balance with their families, their welbeing, and their other interests. This blog exists in a different world from those programmers. It is not a blog written by a labourer with too little time and too many responsibilities trying to convey the barest essentials of their work and practice to another labourer with too little time and too many responsibilities. This is not a criticism, exactly, but it is necessary to acknowledge the ressentiment that this evokes. Culturally, worm-blossom exists in a space that is something like the Ivory Tower of programming.

@gaditb ah, well, you might need to be more specific on genre of thought. technological? rhetorical? social?

it is very sad going through the `static-site-generator´ tag on Codeberg and every single project is some script for doing expensive operations to a directory of Markdown files. programmers really are the worst, least imaginative people out there

can you read the books in the book organizing game

and here is my static site generator https://codeberg.org/Lady/Shushe

@shoofle if you haven’t looked into what indigenous communities have been saying for the past decade about Traditional Knowledges…… you should

AI coming for the internet has broad similarities to the plundering of indigenous Traditional Knowledges by settlers and colonizers and learning about that issue may help you with this one

while trying to push the tags for this repository i got

Connection to codeberg.org closed by remote host.
client_loop: send disconnect: Broken pipe
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

about a billion times so i’m guessing Codeberg is going thru it these days. but it did eventually go thru

i have decided that for code i have written that is ⓐ reasonably stable and ⓑ potentially useful for other folks, i will mirror the latest stable version to Codeberg. this provides a slightly more permanent url with perhaps slightly more uptime than my personal site. you can also report any issues there

anyway, to kick this off, here is my markup language https://codeberg.org/Lady/LesML
