So uhhh....for no reason at all...

How's #racket at dealing with binary data structures? Like, letting me define some binary data formats for (de)serialization.

So I have something cool to show everyone...

I have finally gotten my own forum site off the ground!

Say hello to Mech Bay 316.

It’s powered by the FOSS Discourse package, which is written in Ruby on Rails, mostly. Hosted on a DigitalOcean droplet, with full HTTPS support.

I love posting here on Fosstodon. My website is for a bit more niche and/or long form content. I’m trying to spread the word to see what a community can do with the setup.

Maybe give it a go?

Has anyone tried to use GNUnet? Been stumbling across it lately. A decentralised web protocol seems quite promising. Any experiences with it?

Was reminded why I love Scheme so much as I was making some macros today.

Don't have the tools to do what you want in a concise way? You can literally just make your own syntax and it translates into existing syntax under the hood.

Why aren't we using this in the mainstream? lol

I've been working really hard the past couple of weeks building a new stats system for my web game Improbable Island.

It's a text adventure at https://www.improbableisland.com, there's a lively roleplaying community, player-owned places (with a programming engine!), hundreds of pages of story and no ads/tracking/nastystuff. We've had problems getting new players 'cause the places we used to advertise are all going offline, so if y'all could help me out with a boost that'd be much appreciated

It's VERY early, but I'm thinking of taking Spritely's logo in an intentionally very different logo than most social networks. Instead of the standard simple, modern, minimal SVG, something that looks very painted and intentionally like something an art student's videogame logo might look like instead

What do people think of this direction? Obviously a lot needs to be done

Google tracked his bike ride past a burglarized home. That made him a suspect.

Learn about the system @cwebber has been working on the last few years to "level up" the decentralized social web!

I've decided to take the plunge and order the #atreus from #keyboardio.
https://shop.keyboard.io/products/keyboardio-atreus

This will be my first time with a keyboard:
- at less than 100% size
- that is programmable
- that is layered
- that has blank keycaps (I selected that option)
- that is mechanical

so, wish me luck – I may need it!

Looking for a job. I do web development. It has been kinda hard for me to get a job, for quite a while. I am also considering 'no need to have education' jobs
