A stalking video bullet point script about calming rain ambiance. I'll write a little more later, since I want to finish another illustration for today.

💻 PowerShell no es solo para expertos. Cualquier persona que trabaje con sistemas puede aprenderlo y automatizar tareas que antes tomaban horas. La diferencia está en quienes deciden empezar.

Since outside was/is/will be dreadful, and inspired by @jwildeboer toot a few days ago (social.wildeboer.net/@jwildebo), I'm now "fixing" my 0.5TB photo gallery :)

Once the scripts are solid, can share.

Writing scripts in Rust – with rust-script or nightly Cargo

davidhamann.de/2026/01/30/writ

Unfortunately, Rust Analyzer does not seem to support Cargo scripts (or rust-script scripts) yet. That would be really great. For now, I will continue to use Scala and Scala-cli for type safe scripting. This is also supported by Scala Metals in VSCode.
That works really well.

Python is one of my favorite programming languages due to its terseness and amazing flexibility, and after decades using it I find it quite amusing that it is now the language of c(...)

cl-script is a wrapper to be used in a hash-bang line when wanting to use Common Lisp as script interpreter. It currently supports eight Common Lisp implementations. Use an environment variable to switch implementations.

How I know I formed shell-programming habits a long time ago:

Co-worker was trying to put together some OS-level provisioning-automation for a task he was working on. He was asking how to do some things and I was having to go from memory as I didn't have a suitable Linux host to test command-suggestions on. Guy I was talking to said, "it's ok, I can ask Gemini". He took the results of his search and asked me to look. The code was functional, but far from optimal.

First thing I took issue with was "you're piping
grep to awk: if you stick with a piped-grep for what you're doing, you should use cut instead of awk; if you want awk, then you can drop the grep completely". My further plug for cut was that it's much faster, given that it's 1/15th the size of awk.

He tried my suggestion and was like "yeah, that was much faster". I reminded him that
awk is basically a mini language while cut is a very simple tool. And that, for his use-case, while awk will do the trick, it was massive overkill.

Score one for the elderly SA versus Gemini!

Ich mag die Shell Scripte. Ich mag es auch, wenn es mal eskaliert. Hier und da habe ich auch mal die Abfahrt verpasst, wo man eher mit Python oder Ähnlichem schneller weitergekommen währe.

Manchmal besiegt Schönheit die Vernunft, und Schönheit liegt immer im Auge des Betrachters.

Why shell?

Well, not really because it’s portable, as despite being a “POSIX script”, most of the date and sed tricks I do don’t work on the BSD versions of those commands, with comrak, additionally, being a dependency.

So i think my 16KB ZX81 game will need a Lua-like script/monitor language. Are there any existing Lua-like ones already? By Lua-like i more mean the compactness of the language and its implementation and ease of linking/embedding, rather than the actual syntax. I guess i'm thinking a budget of 1 or 2KB? (otherwise i could just use BASIC).

I'm going to bed now, but i trust that you will come up with some interesting pointers and discussions.

Please Boost.

Хватит воевать с Makefile: как я написал свой таск-раннер на Rust, чтобы не сойти с ума

Хватит воевать с Makefile: как я написал свой таск-раннер на Rust Устали от табов, .PHONY и bash-лапши? Я тоже. Поэтому написал Nest — декларативный таск-раннер с иерархией, типами и понятным синтаксисом. Рассказываю, как это было и почему вам стоит попробовать.
