I got my new Ableton Move yesterday. The other one gets returned on Monday. So, for the short time I can do it, I put both of them on the floor, linked them together using Ableton Link, made a crappy complimentary sequence on both of them, and recorded this silly thing.
lol, considered getting one of those for my partner but wasn't sure how accessible the tools were particularly if you're on Mac but Windows. Very nifty though
It doesn't matter too much, since the screen reader is currently web-based. It does work a little better out-of-the-box with Voiceover on either Mac or iOS compared to NVDA, but thanks to some code from @tspivey that makes interrupting of regions way, way nicer, I prefer using it with NVDA now. No idea how Jaws does it. I tried it with Talkback/Google Chrome, and it's much less nice there.
@Tamasg I don't think it matters? The screen reader output is done via webpage ARIA Live Regions, so if you can get Mac to do that in a timely fashion, you're good to go as far as I know.
@twynn oooh yeah, I heard the 34-minute overview Onj did on it, quite impressive but also a bit steep from say, a standard stylophone or something much more simple like a synth/looping device as such. Although the flexibility of pads and track layouts being so easy to make are both tempting upsides so for sure considering them the more I hear of it, like that production too.
Speaking of the Stylophone: I got one of those for Christmas a few years ago, and was disappointed to discover that it is not a true synth anymore like the originals. It now plays tiny little samples and has aliasing. BOOOOOO!
I was out at the farm, doing the regular fall chores and prepping beds for garlic, when my glasses lens fell out. The screw is, of course, gone. But I need my glasses to drive. Enter a natural material that's abundant, strong, flexible and able to hold a knot.

At first, I found the blade of grass to be a simple solution to a problem. A satisfying answer to a question asked by circumstance. Then it became, I admit, something of an amusement. That was a fool's error. Now it is not me who laughs at the grass, but the grass which laughs cruelly at me. It sees me, and by extension all of humanity, stripped of our modern contrivances, naked before it, and it mocks us.
The end of an era. On September 24, I used a blade of fresh grass to temporarily mend my glasses after one of the screws fell out in a hay field. I just hoped it would last the day.
Today, 39 days later, it finally started to slip, and I put a metal screw back into the hole. Thank you, blade of grass. You served me incredibly well. Amazing stuff, grass.

The Five Faces of Doctor Who, the multi-Doctor repeat season was broadcast 40 years ago today, on 2 November 1981. This fondly remembered run of repeats gave many fans the chance to enjoy stories from past Doctor’s that they’d never seen before for the first time! #DoctorWho
@DavidGoldfield IKWYM, it still baffles me why they've never repeated the show on a regular basis, they seem to with just about everything else these days.
I am thinking of using github.com/keithamus/csslex as a base and going from there to learn more about CSS internals, but I admit I am Afraid of Doing Code Crimes and would like encouragment ha ha
not with that library in particular, but in librsvg I use a rust-based css lexer and parse properties with that. Writing the parsers is fun, a bit tricky sometimes. I do steal code from Servo from time to time. Happy to talk about it.

There's a lot more I could have written about this but... look we've all seen this a million times before, we know how it works, how bad actors abuse it to mass report and bully and where it all goes.
Hey folks, thanks to @bagder and @kees , I managed to compute the "Source code age" from the GLPI project, which I'm working on, and it's really fun because we can see a lot of nice information on it!
To sum it up: the code is very dynamic, and compared to Curl (which you can see here: mastodon.social/@bagder/113399… ) , we can definitely see that it doesn't endorse backwards compatibility: there are a lot of refactorings of big parts of the codebase! 🎉
I already sent it to the GLPI internals, and explained how to read the graph, I hope they will be as thrilled as I am! Gosh, I love statistics like that so much I could make it my entire job 😅
Yes, I did find them, it makes me want to create a repo that would generalize such graphics for any repository! Would be quite hard work, but at least adapting one-by-one and generating the stats is already nice!
Though I must admit that your scripts are quite slower, and they're really curl-specific. The python script by @kees for the Linux Kernel is a bit more generic and easier to standardize.
Would take a while to adapt all of these incredible graphics for all repositories, but maybe it's worth it 😅
I'm sure the scripts can be done better and faster and certainly more general purpose. My ambition has been to cover the curl project from as many angles as possible rather than to make generic scripts.You know, limited time and energy and all that.
I think you have some non-main-branch tags in your data set. E.g. The '22 code drops almost to 0 in '23 but then _comes back_ in '24? It shouldn't be possible for that to happen: once it's removed it can't come back. LoC for a given year span can only grow during that year and then it must only shrink.
Just like Symfony and some other frameworks, GLPI has to maintain multiple versions at a time. So I should actually display only the version tags for a specific branch (9.x for instance) and re-run the script alter with the tags from another branch (like 10.x).
