Sorry, didn't see your reply.

`xcrun safari-web-extension-converter <extracted chrome extension directory>`

It'll create an xcode project and you can run the mac app from there. Safari will need the "Allow Unsigned Extensions" from the Develop menu set before it'll show up in the prefs page. No idea how it all works if you want it on iOS.

They've got us on the beer factor and higher education. Not sports, but eff college sports anyway. Looking forward to going down for Lexington SC some though.

Which is better: Wick's or Danny Mac's?

I agree that it's amusing as a joke made in context with friends over a beer. Not so much where the primary audience is the globe.

Please keep in mind that real people live in Kentucky and joke stereotyping it as you have is both unhelpful to progress and downright hurtful to those of us trying to make it a better place to live.

I did this earlier today. The background stuff (I forget the name of what crashed at present) crashes on a vanilla conversion. It did block some ads, but wasn't full-featured.

GitDB also doesn't handle merge conflicts, so I'm not convinced it would handle multiple clients well. The It's again marked as something they might do in the future someday. I suspect this is pretty fragile. (Note: I was _not_ claiming litestream would do such a thing. Just replication.)

It doesn't appear to be doing much more than replication though. https://litestream.io does that for sqlite already. (Edit for clarity) GitDB seem to have more "distributed" ideas in their roadmap for v3 maybe.

I've been using feedbin since Reader closed, so I guess 9 years. Still grandfathered in a $20/yr plan, even. The best thing about it for me is that I mostly don't think about it other than a visit to see my feeds. It does what I want and isn't awful to look at. Most of the RSS apps I've ever used have integration too. It's a lovely service.

I noticed earlier today that most of the Fleet documentation was last updated on May 2 and references "1.0", but it's pretty sparse for a release-ready documentation site.

Edit: I don't expect this really means anything. The entire site seems to have been generated at once, and that was ~3 weeks ago.

Interesting, thanks. It does sound like there's a lot to build on there so I'll be interested in seeing where it goes. Some of my best "productivity" memories are with the "free" copy of OmniOutliner that came on my first Macs, and I think you have the bones to bring that to the 2020s.

First, I use and love TaskPaper so I'm interested in what you've got going on. But on its surface, I don't see the differentiation between the two products right now other than Bike having slicker rendering and TaskPaper having more utility. It seems like TaskPaper is a competent outliner that supports focus and other features just fine. Can you comment to what the goals are that separate them?

Not relevant? Why?

Looks like they couldn't make it happen.

The book I use to instruct software engineering uses it, and I do use that chapter.

I can't comment to disabling SIP as I haven't taken that route. I've generally taken the codesign route instead, which does require re-signing the app after every update. In the case of Zoom, that's gone away in recent versions since the app now has the virtualcams I'm using in its whitelist. For anything else, it's a very manual process.

Note for anybody thinking they want to use this with Zoom/Slack/Discord/etc: It appears that this has the same restrictions that other DAL-based apps have and you'll need to re-sign the app or disable SIP to use it that way. I've been using an OBS virtual camera for this purpose and have had to do this a few times now. It will depend on the target app if they have this in their allowed plugins list.

He was hoping to sway the story away from what he already knew was being written. He made the phone call to Sonka unscheduled and had never called before. In fact, it was a surprise because most of Sonka's work was not complimentary. Having the governor who was against news media (Trumpian) give a friendly call was very strange.

Give me asciidoctor any day. Markdown just isn't expressive enough to work without relying on a janky network of external tools.

I vastly prefer adoc's tables because I don't need to concern myself with aligning anything to figure out what's what.

Fan clubs gonna fan. Until then, people are identifying so hard with a language that they can't accept that being a bad sign. Claim it's an old opinion if you like. Does that help you invalidate it? It's based on current usage, but it's also reenforced by comment sections like this.

To answer your question, I'll once again just paste the same quote. Sure, there are good programmers out there. But PHP is a pretty good heuristic for this class of programmer.

There's no point in having a conversation if we all need to cheer on the article. Yeah, I've made up my mind. I think this article is misguided. No amount of technical changes to PHP changes legacy codebases or exactly the opening paragraph of the article that everybody seems to be ignoring.

RTFA? My sentiment is not about the language so much as the culture around it. You can certainly write great code in it, but I also have worked plenty of PHP dev shops and have no desire to ever go back to that life. It's clear you're hurt that the language you know has a bad reputation. My condolences on that. I don't need to list off languages that I like to know that I don't want to use PHP or work with PHP developers.

It turns out there are more than 777 words commonly used. Kanji is not different in this respect.

The hack I used to use to inject CSS into the app for a dark theme is no longer viable. So that changed.

I was just talking about with a student who got on to a PHP project with an older developer lead. We decided that PHP is a code smell for a poorly managed project. You know, the kind that were common in the early aughts that featured poor version control practices, no tests, no automation, live changes, live database schema, etc., etc. That's certainly not the way things have to be, but it's never surprising if it is. The root cause is the developer in charge and their reports, but PHP usage is an easy marker to check. We found most examples using other languages (you mention) to be generally better managed in our area/sampling.

I spent four weeks trying to order a genuine replacement keyboard for for my X1 after Lenovo Service tried to charge me $400 for a user-replaceable part. The parts order line was only open a few hours a day and hold times tended to go past their closing time. I'll never Lenovo again.
