Programming on Inkscape code can be like...

I was just checking something on a BBS I use and came across some source files I wrote 27 years ago.

I say "came across" I knew they were there and I was hunting for something near to them, but seeing it written so starkly still caused a double take.

Now I feel old.

Found my old WWP product parser that I never actually implemented in production and I am totally cringing. #growth #oldcode

A new deployment of Melati.org, two years and two weeks since the last one.

It is pleasing to get back to a functioning CI/CD at https://github.com/Melati/Melati under java 11, also tested against java 8 locally.

Next step is to remove the older jdk case handling and upgrade all the dependencies.

Did you write code for #Psion machines in the #80s and #90s?

We're calling for you to open source your code!

I'm working with a group of enthusiasts, building a library of information about the SIBO/EPOC16 platform. Your old code could give valuable insight, as well as encourage people to write new code.

We're especially interested in old C and #x86 #assembly.

Upload it to your public repository of choice, and set it free!

@mdf200 here ya go, my old Windows Speccy emulator still works (on Windows 10, I am amazed) captured using camera pointing at the screen (because IDK how to screen cap Windows stuff) this is 224x168 scaled with some lookup tables. And to be clear it is scaled in 16 bit color space so the applicability to really low end devices is questionable, but works fine on 80-100MHz ARM devices like the PocketPC and even some slower SH4 or MIPS based PocketPCs IIRC. And, evidently I am crap at playing Nodes.

Today, I decided to look at some old code I wrote, to get motivation to do what I'm supposed to (spoiler: looking at old code ain't it).

Result: I feel very motivated to burn this code with fire.

@Gina You don't like it? We just had a 'cleanup' day here at the company. Everybody was happy to be able to just clean up things that they had been looking at for a long time. We made it a monthly thing now. #oldcode
