@latte love this!

RIP my attention span (again)

I can totally imagine a not-too-distant future where writing code by hand (and thus exposing the loophole in the tithes system) is considered an act of rebellion. And where being _able_ to write code by hand marks you out as - to a certain group of people - a dangerous person indeed.

From the counterculture, into the mainstream and now slowly back into the shadows again…

@ariel This looks very cool :)
@camertron I will definitely take a closer look - you have successfully piqued my interest :) I have about a hundred questions brewing right now but I’ll wait until I can dig about in the source a bit to filter out the stupid ones first (currently on my phone which makes things hard!)
@allmarkedup agreed, inertia is quite nice 😊 Have you had a look at https://livecomponent.org?
Live Component Docs

@camertron no I haven’t! I must have missed this somehow. But I’ve just had a quick scan of the docs and this looks very cool :) I will definitely have to dive in a bit deeper when I get a moment.

I assume this would work with Rux templates too? That’s another one of your projects I want to find some more time to play with…

Okay this might be not be news to anyone but Svelte + Inertia Rails is a pretty fantastic combo. It's definitely making me rethink things a bit...
@aegir I'm not sure if any of that is useful but it was a good excuse for me to buy a new notebook when I was in there :)

@aegir so I went in to Pen to Paper, nothing obviously fit the bill but I had a chat with nice person working there. They said they used to stock some "G.Lalo" coloured writing paper which might fit the description but they weren't 100% sure.

They still do stock small G.Lalo paper and writing sets but only in cream - they have Crown Mill instead which is similar apparently but colours are not super vivid (example pic below).

@aegir I can take a look next time I walk past pen to paper :) I will report back if they still have anything that fits the description…
