Tomorrow, "Tuesday evening in the Americas" #lispyGopherClimate #podcast will feature @chiply and we will be talking about fancy #emacs #autocomplete, its #lisp diaspora (#McCLIM completions!), antecedents and... Future.

Thoughts (and prayers) here please. #AMA (about the topic. Me mainly being https://www.chiply.dev/post-vompeccc-spot in this case.).

Edit: Aside, it probably does to mention for context that the following Sunday will be @yantar92 on #orgmode .

I build all of my apps with the simple philosophy that decentralization is good, individuality is important, and power is best left in the hands of individuals - not governments, banks, or corporations.

Users have full control. No data is sent out of the system by default. Offline use is expected and encouraged.

If you want to help me build this vision, check out my GitHub and try one of my apps!

In an Agile sense, do you think the time a task spends in "blocked" (eg waiting on a third party) counts as time spent on the task?

There’s life beyond VSCode… thought I’d share my dev setup:

• Main monitor: WezTerm¹ running in a three (sometimes four)-way split with Helix Editor² as my main editor, a terminal pane for general commands while working, and Yazi³ usually running in another for working with files/directories in a project.

• Other monitor: Sublime Merge⁴ always running full-screen so I can immediately see exactly what I’ve changed (in real time) as I’m working.

Others (not shown): Browser(s) on a third screen and my laptop’s monitor as a fourth screen sometimes for other apps (read: distractions) :)

What’s yours like?

Screenshot of a macOS system with WezTerm running maximised (with a little bit of margin because shiny colourful wallpaper FTW). It’s split into three panes: Helix Editor running in the left with the source code for a file called src/Server.js open. A top-right pane showing unit, regression and end-to-end tests running (179 unit tests passed, 94 regression tests passed, running 7 end-to-end tests, currently at 5/7, running tests/end-to-end/kitten-kawaii-spec.js in Chromium). The lower right pane has Yazi, showing a three-column file system view where the app folder of ~/Projects/kitten/app is selected in the first column, its contents shown in the second, with jsconfig.json selected and the contents of that file showing the final column.

🇵🇸 @small-tech/cross-platform-hostname module deprecated

https://www.npmjs.com/package/@small-tech/cross-platform-hostname

The release of version 1.1.0 deprecates and removes support for this small module that normalised hostname reporting between Linux/macOS and Windows.

We no longer support Windows as Microsoft is complicit in Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people¹ and Small Technology Foundation² stands in solidarity with the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement³.

Windows is an ad-infested and surveillance-ridden dumpster fire of an operating system and, alongside supporting genocide, you are putting both yourself and others at risk by using it.

When supporting Linux/macOS, just use the built-in os.hostname() method which works the same way on both platforms.

Bye bye, Windows.

About Auto-Encrypt Localhost:

https://codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-encrypt-localhost#readme

Auto Encrypt Localhost is similar to the Go utility [mkcert](https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert/) but with the following important differences:

1. It’s written in pure JavaScript for Node.js.

2. It does not require certutil to be installed.

3. It uses a different technique to install its certificate authority in the system trust store of macOS.

4. It uses enterprise policies on all platforms to get Firefox to include its certificate authority from the system trust store.

5. In addition to its Command-Line Interface, it can be used programmatically to automatically handle local development certificate provisioning while creating your server.

Auto-Encrypt Localhost is licensed under AGPL version 3.0.

Replacing JS with just HTML

For many years now, JavaScript has been the workhorse of the web. If you wanted to do something that couldn't be done with just HTML and CSS, you could usually find a way to do it with JS.
And that is great! JS has helped push user experiences forward, and honestly helped push HTML and CSS forward!

"I had the pleasure of serving as the summer instructor for 15-150, the introduction functional programming class for computer science students at Carnegie Mellon, in the Summer 2023 semester.

This course typically serves as the second or third course in the traditional computer science undergraduate sequence, a privilege which not many other universities get to enjoy, as functional programming is often considered a niche topic.

Despite this, I (and CMU) believe this to be of the utmost importance. A disciplined, type-oriented, safety-first view of programming can be of utmost benefit to burgeoning computer science scholars, and I have often heard feedback from students that it is has a transformative view on their perspective of computer science in general.

To that end, I have made my lecture materials from my iteration of the course available for free on the Internet. Please feel free to use this knowledge in any way that you see fit, and I hope that it aids you in your future endeavors."

Sorry folks, hearing that this one is vibe coded (just checked myself and Claude’s all over the commits)… @rmi suggested Micro instead:

Going to check that one out when I get a moment to see if it’s good to recommend for beginners.

My daily driver is Helix, and I love it :)

Node.js devs, so picture this: you run `npm install` and you get a bunch of packages with audit errors.

The only thing I want to know at that point is what’s the root package that these dependencies belong to? (Running npm audit fix is a last resort as I don’t like it fiddling around with the dependencies of nested packages.)

It’s also not a straightforward thing to do, but it’s nothing jq and a bit of piping can’t fix:

```bash
npm audit --json | jq -r '.vulnerabilities[].name' | xargs -n1 npm ls
```

If you’re using fish shell, add an abbr(aviation) or an alias to that with a name like npm-audit-tree and you’re golden ;)

```bash
abbr --add --global npm-audit-tree 'npm audit --json | jq -r '.vulnerabilities[].name' | xargs -n1 npm ls'
```

(I usually prefer abbreviations to aliases as I like to remember/see the actual command being executed.)

So I’m teaching a friend who doesn’t have any development knowledge how to get started with Small Web development and I thought it would be a good opportunity to start creating and sharing the course on the Kitten web site, one lesson at a time.

Here’s the link:

https://kitten.small-web.org/course

It’s a work in progress that I’ll be adding to along with our lessons but the draft of the first one, on setting up your development environment (which I whipped up in the pub last night, so expect typos) is here:

https://kitten.small-web.org/course/setting-up/

Please feel free to follow along and file issues if you have thoughts for improvements, etc.

The Setting Up lesson will actually likely end up being the second one with the first being a theoretical one on Small (peer-to-peer) Web development and how it is similar to and differs from Big (centralised) Web development.

Enjoy!

Just shared my WezTerm¹ configuration. It’s not very long and mostly just adds a few keyboard shortcuts that I find more ergonomically-pleasing, specifies light/dark themes and improves colour scheme consistency and also, if you use Helix Editor², automatically implements light/dark mode theme changes for it in line with the rest of the terminal.

Screen capture of the Team schedule interface from the Gaza Verified admin site. It is a table of names and days (Aral, Casey, Joy, Aseel, Fabio And Mondays … Fridays) with checkboxes at each name/day pair. It starts out greyed out. The Unlock to edit button is clicked and the interface comes alive (opacity returns to full and the checkboxes become green and clickable). The person toggles a few checkboxes and clicks the Lock button to lock the interface again and then repeats the process to undo the changes they just made.

Screenshot of code (the lines editable=false and the button tag code are highlighted): class TeamSchedule extends kitten.Component { editable = false html () { return kitten.html` <section> <h3>Team schedule</h3> <button name='toggle' connect >${this.editable ?

Screenshot of code, continuation of the same class, starting with the end of the html() method from the previous screenshot and going till the end of the class (the table[inert] style and the onToggle() method are highlighted: <style> table[inert] { opacity: 0.9; filter: grayscale(100%); } </style> </table> </section> ` } onToggle () { this.editable = !this.editable console.log(this.editable) this.update() } }

If you are going to deploy a python project (eg django) via docker (is that a good idea?) would you develop the code inside a container on your dev machine using a bind point?

Is that a "normal" dev pipeline these days?

I feel like there are benefits to developing it in a deploy-like environment but not if it's a hassle to setup and maintain... Any thoughts appreciated!

Choosing an R7RS Scheme implementation in 2025

As I’m working on many projects that run on multiple R7RS Scheme implementations I thought I’d write a little bit about Scheme implementations ease of use and usability in R7RS programming.

Making a Scheme script on unix

Did you know that UNIX scripts can be made without a shebang line? What happens then? The operating system, when it sees file marked as executable, tries to run it. If it is not executable however it will then try to run it as a shell script.[1] Why is that relevant to scheme?
