This was fun to play...for about 2 minutes before all the manual work of moving processes around got very tedious, which may be the point of the game. What I would like is a little code edit window where i could code simple routines to handle the scheduling, then be able to watch the result.
for those who aren't familitar with Meta's product line: "Meta Portal (also known as Portal) is a discontinued brand of smart displays and videophones released in 2018 by Meta." a tablet with feet, focused on video-calls.
for example, How much disk is needed? I started the uvx command and it started to download hundreds of megabytes. How much cpu ram is necessary and how much gpu ram is necessary? will an integrated intel gpu work? some ARM boards have a dedicated AI processor, are any of those supported?
it seems like all this infrastructure could be replaced by a DNS TXT record with a public key that browsers could use to check the cert sent from the web server. A web server would load a self-signed cert (or whatever cert they wanted), and put the cert's public key into a DNS record for that hostname. Every visit to a website would need two lookups, one for address and one for key. It puts control back into the hands of the domain owners and eliminates the need for letsencrypt.
Really well written - it was a pleasure to read. Concepts were introduced in small, consumable chunks, without being too slow or overwhelming. I hope more articles are coming.
Sapling is the first AST editor that works how Ive imagined it could. I'd love to leave all the whitespace wrangling behind and move only between AST nodes in an efficient way. This was a fun editor to try and I think there is something to learn here still to make treesitter editors more powerful/efficient.
The syntax choices are really nice here. It has a lot of what I would pick for a language. The one-liner test cases are awesome, <> for generics is comfortable since I use rust, sum types like elm are awesome. If I were to add something (well take it away really) its to use whitespace for array element separators. Eliminates the whole trailing comma issue and looks cleaner, though I admit it might create parsing ambiguities. 'try expr', returning (val,err) is curious and I think I like it better already than try {} catch {}.
for those looking for an open source way to sync photos, syncthing has an android app that works well. While it is 'always running' on my android phone, I love how as soon as I arrive home it connects to wifi and moves any new photos to my home linux box (which is also running syncthing).
