...is them working on their blogging software, static site generator and deployment pipelines. And once that is done, it is time to write about all of that and then never publishing another post again. Granted, that joke has been made too many times, but let us be honest… it is not really wrong. I am guilty of that as well, but at least I try to write somewhat regularly.
There is currently a number from Statcounter making the rounds that Linux has surpassed 10% market share in North America. I would not necessarily believe that number – and yet I think there are some really good signs for Linux on the desktop becoming more and more relevant.
My file manager is coming along nicely. I am getting more comfortable with bubbletea and lipgloss. This means (aside from fixing one or two smaller bugs) I can start adding useful features and start refactoring the code a bit. I am not a big fan of putting everything into one 500 line Update method, so pulling apart ever growing functions was number one on the todo list.
I spent so many hours in IRC in the late 90s and early 2000s. I have seen the netsplits, the drama, the communities that formed. And it was such a fun time. I have seen the IRC client wars, people flaming mIRC users, irssi becoming popular and in a screen session making bouncers feel less relevant to be able to stay up to date with channel activities.
I was going back and forth for some time how lightweight my shell will be. I ended on the decision to bake everything into the binary I need to be productive, except for some tools too large to reproduce. So Neovim is safe, I will not try to rewrite it on a weekend - what a disappointment for the orange site I visit sometimes. But what certainly made it into the codebase is a file manager.
