This week, I put a fully-functioning Linux in a website, running entirely in client-side Javascript!

🐧 https://linuxpuzzles.blinry.org 🐧

It's a prototype for making web-based command line tutorials. Compared to a game or tool you have to download, I hope they will be much more accessible. ✨

@danluu if people still wrote personal diaries, that's the kind of information that could at least resurface decades later.

quick summary of the mastodon digest tools people listed in the replies:

- mastodon digest https://github.com/hodgesmr/mastodon_digest
- a fork of mastodon_digest that runs on github access (https://github.com/mauforonda/mastodon_digest) to make a page like this https://mauforonda.github.io/mastodon_digest/
- and an email version https://github.com/mauforonda/mastodon_email_digest .
- fediview https://fediview.com/
- quintessence (top links) https://quintsns.pianeta.uno

@nixCraft I disagree with both.

1. A domain is a good way to take the first step towards a goal. Make it feel a little bit more real. At least get reminded of past ideas once a year, when you're forced to extend or give up.

2. Sometimes you get all the learning you wanted out of a project, and there's no further benefit to pushing it onward

Opera music would be so much better if singers didn't do the "opera voice".

That's a relic of the past, before amplifiers and microphones existed.

At this point, it's relegating the art form to a niche.

Business owner me sometimes just wants to grab programmer me by the neck and strangle him.

That's probably some kind of tribal instinct.

When you laugh, it's a group-bonding experience.

When someone else laughs, you feel like an intruder in someone else's group, which historically usually meant danger. Puts you on the edge.

Laughing hysterically is the best thing in the world when it happens to you, and the worst thing in the world when it happens to a stranger in the same room.

@carnage4life I think we are just collectively rediscovering why we liked forums.

But yeah, soon enough, we'll start rediscovering why we hate them as well.

Really brings to perspective what's the core of human contribution to this world (reason) vs what we want it to be (creativity, intuition, feelings).
