so i woke up and checked my email. (i don't do push notifications.)
there was no letter from any of the friends i'd exchanged email addresses with.
there was, however, a notification for an issue opened in #tek.
yay, someone's trying to use my (woefully incomplete after nearly a year of prototyping) program.
or so i thought!
but nope, the issue was part of an #ai-powered ddos attack against #codeberg.
and it was constructed precisely-enough to make me doubt myself.
whoa.
fuck.

good feedback! i think #furiphone has support for #android apps (#waydroid iirc?) and back in the day so did #jolla / #sailfish - i think you can get those on a #sony these days
also i've run android-x86 in vm and its alright but idk what those apps are gonna try. supposedly only finance apps are allowed by google to check for a rooted phone but ... who knows https://peabee.substack.com/p/everyone-knows-what-apps-you-use

here's a video of #taggart resizing columns using https://docs.rs/unicode-width/latest/unicode_width/ to cut the string at the correct locations!
still doesn't save, still crashes on backspace, but at least it looks cute now! next - make it save tags, thanks to https://docs.rs/lofty (as recommended by https://codeberg.org/Frieder_Hannenheim), and that'll probably be the v0.1
TrimString and TrimStringRef are now available in the underlying framework, #tengri. all work on this precipitates into #tek, the original #tui #daw 😉
#rustlang

afaik `export default const` also doesn't work - even in raw #javascript.
that one's because a single `const` kw can define multiple constants like `const foo = "1", bar = 2` - which one will be the default?
but typescript's `type` keyword does not in fact enable you to define multiple types like `type Foo = string, Bar = number`!
general clunkiness of es modules syntax aside, this sort of counterintuitive inconsistencies between js and ts just make #typescript feel shoddy

nice progress! two things surprised me:
- that this graphic was made at all. i mean, how many modern gui frameworks even have succinct visual documentation like pictured here?
- how few entities there are in the class tree in the first place (again in comparison with modern stuff like, say libadwaita, or a some web widget library atop react atop web dom atop browser...). but when i look at it, it seems to have all the essentials
good stuff, looking forward to new motif apps :)

odd. i see picrelated just fine - not my reply, not boosted, not buried.
it is kind of inconvenient though that when i see a reply in the tl there is no "go to start of thread" button or anything; if i click the post itself it may or may not load the context.
e.g. 2nd post just doesnt load the rest of the presumed thread
(i do boost great replies #mandatoryvirtuesignal but i did not know i had to do it with mine as well)

beautiful... and monstrous.
so i took last 2 weeks to rewrite the entire #tui rendering engine for my proto-#daw to (1) be generic over rendering backend and (2) support functional/declarative definitions of components.
i had previously split the pictured code into 5 struct impls just to be able to manage it. now it fits quite nicely in a single method
only problem is it looks like line noise - i don't need all these `move|add|{`, `&`, `?`, `Ok(())`, `\n}`... but the #rustlang compiler does

1. needs a ok/cancel button, otherwise users will skip without reading
2. *how* does one make sure their system is modern enough to support wayland? using linux for >10 years and havent the slightest

this has been going on for years. i love how people kept noticing it, then other people kept gaslighting them.

whew, saved! almost let a week whoosh by without commits to the #rust #tui #daw
at beginning of week i kinda got stuck on implementing a sane focus system for the ui components
it's kinda hard to make a good design and implementation for nested focusing of widgets in a mouseless interface, especially with the type erasure that trait-based dynamic dispatch does
then some life happened (need to get the escape pod 🚗 looked at 🔧) but i finally made some room to look at all that during the weekend

yes, but "intelligently" - e.g. when you have a manually wrapped piece of text and you're trying to read it on a more narrow screen with automatic word wrap, it splits every line into a longer and a shorter line.
i've run into this a bunch of times and to me it's one of the most unreadable things. i've even seen hard wrap applied to text broken up like that.
would be really awesome if there was some tool or command invocation which could automatically fix that...

now *this* is a social media experience I can get behind 👏👏👏👏
and it's a pure frontend app. brilliant stuff - might deploy one later 🤩

Heard #GNOME are trying to replace #Cantarell with #Inter as their default #UI #typeface?
Would hate to see Cantarell go. It has great #character, and hits some really right spots in terms of #metrics and #hinting on medium #dpi
The venerable #DejaVu and #Liberation families never really looked right for me, (and neither did #Qt's font rendering under 1080p, FWIW) - but as far as #FOSS fonts go, #Cantarell on #720p-#1440p IPS is up there with what #Georgia and #Verdana were on #480p-#600p #CRT
