this is one of the first scripts I wrote
I can't believe I put the --no-ls AFTER the argument, ha, what a noob.
ah well if it works it works and I can't refactor now because I built it into
random scripts and I'd be fixing errors all the time.

I haven't heard of that but I'll look into it! Honestly I'm more likely to
write my own script, it shouldn't be too hard just altering the /etc/hosts
file and then changing it back in ~15 minutes with a cron-job, as Nikky says
down below. I like things that I make myself because then if it breaks I know
who to blame! And who to go to to fix it. >: )

source code should be like a story
"here's why we did what we did with our architecture"
and as it's being written, it may be altered in many different places at once
- git style.
parts of it could rhyme,
if they wanted to show parts that were really difficult but easy to summarize
because it's mostly just a lot of boring work y'know like writing getters and
setters and doing the testing pre-deploy environments
,,, they could selectionize

If you're writing a bash script, you should never hard-code file locations.
Instead, put them in a variable at the top of your script, so they're easy to
find when people need to configure your script or move files around.
It's like a config file built INTO the script itself. Just change the
variables, they're at the top with comments.

I really do believe that you can write any computer program you'd like with a
combination of Lua, Bash, and C.
Bash to start the program and enable updates / configuration, Lua to handle
the scripting and ordering of events, and C (or Rust) to execute performance
intensive sections. (often in their own threads)

the neat thing about BASH is that it's the glue that holds all your other code
together. Write libraries in C and call them with BASH - accomplish broader
tasks that are easier to co-create. That's why I like it - it's not the most

the more you try, the more you have to calculate, which is a problem, because
endlessly recursive calculations create infinite loops, which frankly are
impossible to compute because they defy computation! Not good, not ideal, no
thank you, not for me, no thanks, not what I'd like.

what if instead of javascript cookies we only let websites access one single
location in memory which was allocated client-side and is unique to each
website?
that way they couldn't track you between sites, since they wouldn't be able to
see any other website's "biscuits" get it because they're healthier than
cookies
All they would be able to store would be data, though I guess they could store
bytecode instructions or something if they really wanted to.

if you'd like I can give you a lua script which will take your fediverse

be a fun diversion from posting. You can reply to yourself, add
clarifications, change some things, put things in a new light, add context,
etc... before you know it you'll have something printable. Could even pull out
your best stuff and make zines.

I made an alias that overwrites cd so I don't have to do this. The important
line is line 27, you could probably accomplish something similar like this:
alias cd="cd ${1} && ls -v --color=auto"
I also set it up so I can change more than one directory up using ... or ....
or .....
also I have a few shortcut scripts, cdir and qcd. cdir creates a quick way to
drop a bookmark wherever I'd like, while qcd can make permanent bookmarks.
Also qcd makes it so whenever I open a new terminal it opens to the last
directory I was in, which is nice if you need a new terminal to do something
in the current folder and you don't want to have to walk alllllllll the way
back.

I use dmenu, so I'm thinking I'll write a script and call it using dmenu. The
script will start by using flameshot to grab the snipped part of the screen
into the clipboard, and then I need to find an OCR engine (thanks for the
google-able term btw!) which can take clipboard contents as input, and output
text to the clipboard.

I helped make a script that saves the last directory you CD'd to in every

where I was working last, which means I'm less likely to forget what I was
doing.
However, it does make my home directory a bit more messy, as I no longer open

the first initiates the conversation, and sets up an encrypted line. It

Sometimes when I feel overwhelmed with all the boilerplate I just start coding

don't exist yet, as long as you're hacking out the mechanics of whatever
operations you need to perform then you can figure the rest of that stuff out
later. The creative urge doesn't last forever, which is why projects get

Those are good points. The C in our hearts is elegant, but the C that runs on

I'm sure someone's made a language that's "C but simple" - Zig maybe? I looked

support for multithreading, which is essential in the modern era.

Code editor that moves boxes by saving over the file with a lua script every
time you moved a function call around.
Oh lemme start at the beginning:
A code editor program that's like a text editor like Vim or Emacs. If you
don't know what those are, you should probably learn Emacs. Or Vim. Up to you.
Oh right so if you do know what those mean, here's the idea: the white space
matters. It's counted and tracked into variables in a LUA script which
interface with the Vim C keybindings.
"run a function within a c program or LUA script which calls a bash command
which opens Vim for example with a file you want to edit. Then, inside the
file, your spaces and tabs would WYSIWYG for the various food ads placed
about, and then you could very easily create game design knowledge.
WASD to move, alternatively hjkl
It would run a check every time the file updates and depending on how it
changed it'd mark certain variables which would change the website as the user
moved things around.
It's just files. And files are just bits. But files are a useful abstraction,
If you realize that "ugly hacking" should be industry standard.

terminate a sed command. Or something, still not entirely sure what happened,
because it deleted the script that was doing the deleting.
good thing I have backups from ~3 hours ago. Feels great to lose 33% of a

functions should be forced to describe the context of why they were being

scanning] how and why the program did do wrong.
