Sigh, Prusa Mini failed to print a simple trapezoid. I'm having a lot of failures since input shaping was added. #3dprinting

@StefanEJones who’s the poor guy in the lion suit?

@mark @mcc my supervisor has a habit of writing out “alpha”, “beta” etc for type variables. I struggled a lot with that

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.

@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
