nerdypepper··on What is “literate programming”? (2024)
relatedly, i have been using literate haskell to document my advent of code journey this year:

- day 5's solution for example: https://aoc.oppi.li/2.3-day-5.html#day-5

- literate haskell source: https://tangled.org/oppi.li/aoc/blob/main/src/2025/05.lhs

the book/site is "weaved" with pandoc, the code is "tangled" with a custom markdown "unlit" program that is passed to GHC.

how is atuin doing what deltaDB does?
nerdypepper··on ForgeFed: ActivityPub-based forge federation protocol
no AP is not the right protocol for shared/collaborative systems, the creators of forgefed have the same thoughts: https://forgefed.org/blog/actor-programming/.
nerdypepper··on GitHub was having issues
https://tangled.sh?

social features via atprotocol, native jujutsu support, stacked PRs, interdiffs, light weight to selfhost, nix-based CI.

nerdypepper··on Ask HN: What alternatives to GitHub are you using?
there's https://forgefed.org/ defined by the creators of forgejo. there is no complete implementation of the spec. from the last forgejo changelog, the "star" action has been completely federated. federated PRs and issues are a long way away.

https://tangled.sh is the other contender in this space that I know of. uses atproto (same as bluesky) under the hood.

fundamentally activitypub is insufficient to define these kind of networks. you'd need to have some sort of object-capability representation. the creators of forgefed are also moving in this direction: https://codeberg.org/Playwright/playwright

nerdypepper··on Ask HN: What alternatives to GitHub are you using?
the only thing I really miss from GitHub is the social bits. it's super easy to stand up cgit etc. but you miss out on actual collab features, discover etc.

I've moved the bulk of my repos from GitHub to cgit first, but now to https://tangled.sh.
