Elvish has some improvements over bash, sure, but it also has some beyond bonkers design decisions that make life harder than they need to be. Enough that I'm contemplating abandoning my Elvish experiment and just concentrating on YSH as my shell scripting replacement (and that's not to say that YSH isn't a catastrophic mess of gibberish at times either, mind.)

(And it's not like I'm trying to do something complicated - it's just reading lines from a file and creating some SQL based on the contents of those files. No, I do not want to be doing it in $PROPER language because this is a quick fudge that already has a replacement in the pipeline and this has a deadline of about 124 minutes from now.)

Hi, hello!! This is me wearing bodypaint! I've once again turned myself into a character from the book I'm writing! 👀 Her name is Kijani (Swahili for green) and is one of the main characters in my book. She's an elvish witch who loves exploring the world and travels far to search for old magic, temples and shrines. One day, while trying to solve another mystery, she accidentally awakes the 4 old elemental Gods. Gods that are not happy with the destruction of the planet that humans, witches and other creatures have caused. Now it's up to Kijani to find and gather those who can stop them before they warp the world into a place that is no longer liveable.

Sitting in Saaremaa (EE) at a BBQ catching the view on an elvish tattoo… it is a line of a William Ernest Henley poem called Invictus. “I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul.”

I've always loved #PoshGit. It's a fantastic tool for #PowerShell that shows you various symbols related to #Git directly in the prompt, like the current branch, how many files are staged, changed, how many commits you have comparing to remote, and so on and so forth. Now I need something like this but for my #Ubuntu in #WSL. Testing #Starship, so far so good. The only little thing is that it tries to show empty Git prompt even in a directory with no repo in it. But the big thing is that it's cross-platform and cross-shell, it even supports recent versions of #Elvish.
