Lady, EVOLVED @Lady@cat.family

unrelatedly, i AM working on building a unified RDF/OWL ontology for my projects using ⛩️📰 书社 and it IS definitely stress-testing its capacity to handle “actual workloads”

jury is still out whether something complexly interconnected like that or something with Just A Lot Of Data (e·g a dictionary) will bog it down more

but i’m pretty sure it’s still faster than Any Static Site Generator

“just define a conceptual tarball and expand it” feels kludgy but solves like 95% of the situations where multiple files need to be produced from a single source file, more elegantly than anything else i’ve been able to come up with

allllll of the “catalog”-related stuff in that makefile is going to be dropped, tho, and possibly also the subrepo approach in favour of expecting users to stich things together in the downstream repo

basically i am leveraging the “expanded archive” functionality from ⛩📰 书社 to take this down to a single .xslt file, which really makes one wonder whether this needs a whole dedicated git repository, although i probably will keep it for the `make +category` functionality which is convenient and nontrivial

https://git.ladys.computer/Caudex if you want to see the hard way of doing things before i finish up work on the easy way of doing things

if any homebrew maintainers follow me feel free to update those packages anytime

(this is largely because homebrew is bad not because libxml2 and libxslt have recently cut a release or anything)

no homebrew doesn’t even have them i have to build from source to check

can’t believe this code only works in the latest versions of libxml2 and libxslt

not sure i believe in criminal law but i sure DO believe in suing the fuck out of some billionaires

did tim walz ever go out on strike or did he just threaten to go out on strike

oh right walz being a teacher means he used to belong to the n·e·a

how to say “we need to prioritize dialectics” without sounding like a marxist

no lessons were learned from this

remember in the early days of mastodon how there was no way to revoke admin privileges so when an admin on mastodon.social was like “yeah i need to step down” they just permabanned their own account

apparently the germans thought the process of leavening bread with yeast was akin to building a boiling brew

so they called it “brewed”

have you ever thought about how when they invented bread they didn’t have a name for it yet

then they had to decide what to call bread
