i’m at that point at the con where i just want a quiet corner where i can people watch…
I am actually really happy about how my mobile-tweaks for #ktistec turned out. There was a lot of #CSS hacking involved, but I am pretty happy with the results :)
Here's a little video of how it looks:

it’s not quite #worldcon yet so we went to the national piping center in glasgow, and I picked up some books and a few pointers.
as fate would have it, the international piping festival is next week in glasgow, as well, so i’ll be doing a wee bit of that, too!

I just released v2.2.0 of Ktistec. A lot of code was written but the main user-visible change is streaming timeline updates to the web client using server-sent events. The back-end pub/sub framework will also make it easier to decouple some components down the road.
I want a visual indicator that new posts are in my timeline. I appreciate that not everyone feels the same way—if there's interest I may make it switchable.
And now, off to #worldcon!

heading to #worldcon and to do some #sightseeing in scotland, shortly...
My #ktistec tweaks repository (https://src.jayvii.de/pub/ktistec-tweaks/index.html) now also includes adjustments for small screens (for example, if you use ktistec on your smart-phone), such as pagination buttons that are easier to hit with your thumbs or an iconified navigation bar at the top, so it actually fits the screen. It's using the very nice feather icons!

Across my career, the one thing that I think most people don't really understand about software engineering (or, really, engineering) is that it's ultimately about the details. It's about all the little things that have to be both decided and implemented to turn the grand vision into reality. And a lot of software engineering methodology is about getting a handle on those details.
As an aside, I think this is what people like about LLMs, etc. etc. etc. What I think a lot of people want out of software is for it to "just do what i mean" (without explaining what you mean). LLMs kind of give (the illusion) of that...
