Just cut a new IkiWiki release. Hopefully I didn’t break anything. This is intended for Debian Trixie

@pndc it’s the bounce that concerns me. I could live with spooled retries. From the docs I think it might depend on the return code

@pndc i do! But as I understand it’s “pipe” command, I’m concerned about the behaviour if the command fails

@mcc I’m out of touch on current fashions, but my last project used stack and it solves a couple of the issues you’ve hit so far

@mcc @dysfun there’s quite a good chapter on parsec (megaparsec precursor) in “real world Haskell” (which is free online). I concur that a parsec variant is the best choice for this, even for micro-scale parsing . And I found that counter intuitive first time

@cstross mine’s always faintly lemon flavoured. I’m not sure I’d like mango more or less. I know I have to avoid lemon squash for months afterwards

@joostvb thanks! Out of curiosity, if you use “system some-command”, and some-command exits signalling failure, what does maildrop do?

@suihkulokki that’s the one I need to look at next. Thanks!

@noahm @suihkulokki I need to look at dovecot’s sieve in particular. I do want a pipe call-out (to a spam classifier) which exim’s sieve implementation doesn’t support (and exim’s own filter language has poor behaviour if the pipe fails: no handling in the filter script; generate a bounce to sender!). Thanks!

@mcc I *think* Char is actually (a) Unicode

Briefly looked at procmail (!) replacements today. Was disappointed.

Feeling old… I still routinely ^S/^Q to freeze terminals. I don’t really _need_ to anymore, and the bindings do occasionally cause me problems. So I should probably turn them off.

@anildash The collective noun of "techbro" is "a podcast".

Don't buy proprietary 3d printers. They'll do everything to lock you into their own eco system. That's it, that's the whole toot.

@evan citizen sleeper

Same for “atomic habits”

I keep wanting to refresh my memory of GTD and bouncing off its verbosity. I need my own cliff notes for it

Minilogue XD and Zoom R8 blinkenlights

@lightweight @pluralistic @dredmorbius WebKit itself was a fork of KHTML, in the dim and distant
