Its quite sad to see the rationale as making it too complicated when "upgrading to venvs" when it should kill them outright. Why using python depends at all on weird shell semantics is beyond me.
I always thought it was weird when people have websites like this, anyways, for those phased away and want to read this article while centered, execute in the console:
Though if you're in the habit of customizing sites you read, I'd personally recommend using a browser extension like Stylus (https://add0n.com/stylus.html) to do CSS, so you could write it like this:
That's a good tip! I also think its just as weird when sites have zero links to their home page. On what planet is "go to the address bar and delete the last part of the url and hit enter to go to the index" good user experience?
My goal in leaving out the link to my home page was to make the Writing Gaggle home page more prominent than my personal blog. (I manage hosting both, see.) I only added my blog index page as an afterthought when I saw a ton of 404 errors on my server a few months ago because people were manually navigating to it.
I'll consider adding actual navigation to my page template though, so maybe you'll be less annoyed ;)
inkscape iirc :) At the time I wanted a tool that would typeset text I write into geometric kufic and have some parameters that one can tune to e.g. control curvature, colors, ...etc but it'd have been too big of a bikeshed.
ICYMI, there's an excellent interactive introduction to `datalog` that's referenced in the article's references.[0]
Last time I used `datalog` was years ago, I was developing an internal interactive tool that was used to compare different approaches to solving a certain problem at my employer. I used `datascript`[1] by way of clojurescript to store all experiment data and then interrogated the `datascript` DB via `datalog`. This is something I always remember fondly.
