"What a difference a '-j' makes" is the song I am singing this morning

Just remembered my laptop has lots of cores and if I pass `-j` to `make` then everything runs faster :-).

Hi folks! ✌️ I have a couple of news about the game about the bird Birdy 🐦📰

I've add Jorik 🐧 to "Walking through street" mini-game, and changed the Birdy's hair color.

The new version you can already download from the Birdy's Codeberg page 🏔️👉 https://codeberg.org/xolatgames/Birdy-wants-crisps/releases/tag/v1.4.2

And also, I upload it to my website soon.

See you soon! 😉👋

Currently looking at tools to replace #snakemake for my usage (command runner + workflow manager).

well, i can't say that i'm really surprised, but this snakemake dependency is **heavy**...

and after trying a bit the other options listed here (x-axis), i still think #gnumake fits my usage the best given the size, i just need to survive the syntax... 😬

Most evil "make distclean" in a #Makefile?
"git clean -d -x -f" 🤣

#git #GnuMake

I’m teetering on the brink with #gnustep, but man it sure does make it hard.

I’m back to *loving* WindowMaker (yes, Window Maker is not GNUstep). It’s made me love #xorg again after years of preferring OSX/#wayland. I had forgotten how good I had it in 2001 on ‘sid’ with a big ol’ #debian swirl backdrop and WindowMaker on top.

But the one thing I really want is a NeXT-like file browser/launcher (Or maybe I just want Aqua-apex OSX back (10.4/10.5?)). Gnustep Workspace /seems/ to be the best-integrated version of that. However, after I disconnect, new terminal windows launch out of bounds (invisibly) and I have to use some X dark magic to pull them back into the viewport (ugh!). OK, I can patch it, I can fix it. Open source!

But goddam the installation and #gnumake hell to get it working on #freebsd 14.3/15.0-CURRENT just saps joy. After reading dated docs and fiddling for hours I’m barely any closer.

Still very annoying that `make` does not have a flag to "build all *.csv" files... 😩

(no, `make *.csv` does not work if the files don't exist yet. Yes, `make -t` will create ALL (including other) target files, not ideal)

UPDATE: `make -nt | sed 's|^touch\s*||g' | grep '\.csv$'` at least gives you all make'able `*.csv`-files, which you can then pipe into `xargs make`...
