I have to say, I am really, really happy with how the flow into the thirty second GIF reflects my ideal computer useage.

Basically, I write a clim command that steers my leonardo system "like a person does" via emacs-server, visible in the background of the straightforward clim interactor GUI I generated in a couple lines.

Really just a devlog! I slapped a #mcclim #gui onto my simulation so that I could click a button rather than type actions over and over again.

Then, I really just figured out that one simple-starting-arrangement idea I had doesn't work, because the only vertical move that gets triggered is from the lowest row of a tile to the highest row of the same tile.

Small "improvements".

We now take it for granted but adding a display to a copying machine was a novel idea in the early 80s. In this 1984 video Austin Henderson told the history of and demoed Trillium, an Interlisp environment for designing and prototyping user interfaces for Xerox copier control panels.

Trillium was actually more versatile as Henderson used the system to run the slideshow in this presentation. See also:

When you change longstanding placements of navigational links, esp a social media site, it really can screw up people that rely on #a11y #UI #GUI, like moving Notifications, probably the second most clicked link in #Mastodon from under Home to other placements down on the list.

I hope they reconsider this in the final V4.4.0 release. Keep Notifications in the number two spot.

I'm reading GitHub #34910, #34987, #35017, #34986, #35029, #35065, #35067 and #35072 to see reasoning

Kennt ihr das, ihr wollt Kollegen an Git ranführen, aber nicht in einem Hardcore-Entwickler-Kontext?

Mein Ansatz wäre, lasst sie in Ruhe mit der Kommandozeile und nehmt GitExtensions, VScode (bzw. VSCodium ;))...
Dann müsste genau das nur jmd. in ein paar Minuten gut erklären, ohne zu sehr auszuschweifen.

Das absolut perfekte Video hab ich noch nicht gefunden. Aber "Einführung in Git mit Visual Studio Code. Versionskontrolle leicht gemacht" (youtube.com/watch?v=7fIP5aM6hy)

I have spent a few evenings tinkering with the theming system of @novelwriter. The themes are defined in config files.

Since the Qt QColor object has a lighter(), darker() and alpha() modifier function, I added a way to refer to previously defined colours by name and with a L150 or D150 modifier here meaning 150% lighter or darker, and just a number for opacity from 0 to 255.

It makes it a lot easier to make themes!
