Baffled as to what I'm doing as I'm doing it, Station has taken up a semi-permanent residence in my tmux window that previuosly only contained IRC. Yes. I mean *Station*, not gemini in general. Though I do follow a few things/people on occasion, and use Drew DeVault's feeds system, Station probably is up in diohsc almost all the time when I'm not actively interacting elsewhere, which is rare.

So, I've been overhauling my vim setup while making a move to neovim, and realized I don't really LIKE my editor setup, I'm just familiar with it. In the process of trying to get what I *would* actually want, I found myself quite frustrated with the internals of vim. From what I hear, emacs sounds more like what I want. It would be *quite* the transition, but do any Geminauts have good starting resources and/or tips? Appreciated in advance!

I was watching my girlfriend do some crummy grunt-work organization for her PhD research, moving files around and things like that. Curious, I asked what she was doing, and it was essentially just flattening a deeply-nested directory with tons of files, and sorting into time-based folders. I solved what was going to take her HOURS with a bash 1-liner. This makes me wonder why some basic scripting/programming is not commonly mandatory in college curriculums, regardless of your degree. It would be *far* more useful than some current requirements, in my opinion.

I've noticed this theme of people really giving certain languages and technologies in general a TON of hate, writing posts in ways that paint others who enjoy or see value in those technologies as idiots. 9 times out of 10, those things really are useful for something, and chances are you're not familiar enough to recognize it. I've been guilty of the same, but for a couple years now I've been making a concious effort to curb that behavior. It baffles me the lack of self-awareness exhibited by some in the software space when it comes to the ability to know when you're being too superlative.

No idea if other people would want this, or if the current backend would support it, but partial notification clearing with something like clear?all and clear?<id would be sort-of nice. Just a random thought; I'm loving capsule! cc: @martin

I've never been a fan of all the unicode emoji (is that what you're supposed to call them?), but I have to say, this capsule is a really good example of how they can be used to really help your eyes sort information that would otherwise be a wall of text. Great job!

The code is very much a 20-minute PoC, but would anyone besides me use a GitLab project list proxy? I'd have to update my projects to actually have descriptions upstream so that the output looks prettier, but this would be kinda nice to see what projects someone is working on. gemini://gemini.mcoffin.dev:1966/user/mcoffin/project

Well, I was too young for usenet, so I guess I better get in on Gemini. It's kind of weird using a web standard for which I could actually write a fully-functional client within a reasonable span of time.
