60 years ago today, The Who released their debut album 'My Generation' and lit the fuse for a new era of rock. Six decades later, it still sounds like pure ignition.
No people are “garbage.” That is the language of fascists. We need to rein this racist lunatic in.

Die erste Schwarze Frau im Bundestag zu sein, klingt großartiger als es ist.
Heute haben wir im Plenum die Erinnerungskultur verhandelt.
Die deutsche Kolonialgeschichte wird von BKM Weimer an den Katzentisch verbannt. Die meisten finden nichts dabei.
An solchen Tagen spüre ich besonders, dass ich die einzige Schwarze Frau im Raum bin.

Ich glaube ich muss ne eigene Rubrik zur #GasKathi eröffnen.
Zum Start mal was augenscheinlich ungewöhnliches: Heute mal nicht die #Fossillobby sondern ihr Lebensgefährte Ex-Dr. #Guttenberg im Mittelpunkt ihrer Arbeit!
Also, ich höre hauptsächlich Life Radio OÖ, Radio Wien und Radio Paradise. Quasi Radio. Kennt das noch jemand?
Angeblich ist das an diesem Tag besonders relevant. Gerne.

I published my first #Nix / #NixOS library!
Niccup: Hiccup-like HTML Generation in ~120 Lines of Pure Nix.
Transforms Nix expressions into HTML.
The website has some cool examples, I'm especially proud of the quine one that was slightly tricky to get right: https://embedding-shapes.github.io/niccup/examples/quine/
Website: https://embedding-shapes.github.io/niccup/
And a softer introduction blog post with motivation and more background: https://embedding-shapes.github.io/introducing-niccup/
![Examples
let h = inputs.niccup.lib; in
h.render [
"div#main.container"
{ lang = "en"; class = [ "app" "dark" ]; }
[ "h1" "Hello from Nix" ]
[ "p" "Hiccup-style HTML in Nix." ]
(h.comment "List example")
[ "ul" (map (x: [ "li.item" x ]) [ "one" "two" "three" ]) ]
]
Write to file (use nixpkgs writeText):
{ pkgs, inputs, ... }:
pkgs.writeText "index.html" (inputs.niccup.lib.render [ "p" "Hello" ])
Some more involved examples:
art - Generative SVG (Sierpinski triangle)
blog - Multi-page blog with navigation
docs - NixOS module documentation generator
quine - Self-rendering page
The website for niccup is generated dynamically with niccup too, the whole source is ~120 lines of Nix as well](https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/115/657/616/829/494/790/original/fb96c8dd5d0a0a70.png)

a bit of #rant I guess (?)
So the state of the #ui in today world is that apps care more about the "brand" instead of using darn OS widgets (so all apps would look more or less uniform with the platform). Turns out that #Qt kinda switched from QtWidgets (native OS controlls) to QML and Qt Quick which doesn't use native widgets but rather paints it's own that try to look like the native ones via theming. So if you want native you should use QtWidgets.
Qt is kinda huge though because it's not only UI but a lot of libraries as well…
On the other hand there is a #libui (https://github.com/libui-ng/libui-ng) which seems great (and has neat bindings for #Rust) but it lacks quite a lot of widgets… (and on Linux they only do GTK :/)
Would be nice to have something like scaled-down-QtWidgets that don't require "whole" Qt and would offer nice bindings to Rust…
(though yesterday I dabbed a bit in "modern" #C++ and it wasn't all that terrible 😱 )
Is anyone using something like AMD Ryzen™ 7 8745HS in #freebsd? Does it work flawlessly?
#decemberAdventure day 3: I finished the ilo vm in Ada and set up an Oberon compiler so I can try to do one in Oberon tomorrow. The Ada code is in the fossil repository now and my adventure logs are at https://charles.childe.rs/DA2025/
I'm thinking that I might take a break from the Wirth family of languages after doing the Oberon one, and try to do a Smalltalk implementation (likely for GNU Smalltalk).
Today's #FreeSoftwareAdvent entry: ledger(1) & hledger(1)
I primarily use ledger use for my #plaintextaccounting purposes¹ but try to mostly keep my data-files in a form that hledger can process them too.
Getting started involved a crash-course in accounting terms, but the use of positive/negative numbers (rather than "debits" and "credits" which always bugged me; though both have ways of specifying that output should be in credit/debit format) eased the transition.
While it started a little tedious, a few helper-scripts and shell-functions simplified adding new common entries and gave me lazy access to common reports.
I still struggle a little bit with closing the books (I though I'd figured it out, and documented it², but had some hiccups so I'll need to revisit my documentation in January)
But it's been incredibly helpful to see and track our household net worth, spot trends, keep tabs on gift-card balances that would otherwise get forgotten, track invoices sent to clients, and it simplifies balancing the checkbook monthly.

Privacy is not a thing you have or don't have, it's your being able to choose for yourself what you share about yourself, and when and where and with who. And the other word we have for that is dignity.
Your privacy is your agency over your dignity. And anyone arguing that we aren't entitled to that privacy is clearly arguing we're not entitled to dignity, and they want to be able to strip us of that dignity at their whim.
Fediverse is the best place to learn and meet other game and indie devs, hands down

Ghostty is now a non-profit project, fiscally sponsored by Hack Club. https://mitchellh.com/writing/ghostty-non-profit I view terminals as critical infrastructure that should be stewarded by a mission-driven, non-commercial entity that prioritizes public benefit over profit. Ghostty is now that.

The last new #Linux #kernel for 2025 was just released and there are some really cool changes all around. One of the new additions is detection for FreeBSD's #bhyve #hypervisor. Wicked cool!
From the article:
"In what might be a sign of the quiet continued spread of FreeBSD, the kernel can now detect and handle that it is running under FreeBSD's built-in bhyve hypervisor. Coincidentally, FreeBSD 15.0 just appeared as well, and in this release bhyve supports over 255 virtual processors [PDF] in a VM. Now Linux can handle that configuration."
The juicy details are here:
And now, alongside the Django 6.0 release, comes a django-tasks release, with (now working) support for 6.0!
https://github.com/RealOrangeOne/django-tasks/releases/tag/0.10.0
I wrote a short post about the #djangonautspace that wrapped last week.
It was a humbling but rewarding experience and I would like to thank the organizers 
@djangonautDjangonaut Space , the navigator of team Jupiter 
@thibaudcolas and my teammates Collins, Lupyana and Rahul.
Do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life, because nobody is hiring for that.
