Let’s see 😂

Did I mention mu only supports ints? 🤔 I’m not sure if I’ll need flots for this year’s AoC? 🤔

I’m having to write my own functions like this in mu just to solve AoC puzzles :D

fn pow10(k) {
    p := 1
    i := 0
    while i < k {
        p = p * 10
        i = i + 1
    }
    return p
}

I just completed “Gift Shop” - Day 2 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2025/day/2 – But again, I’m solving this in my own language mu that I had to build first 🤣

I just completed “Secret Entrance” - Day 1 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2025/day/1 — However I did it in my own toy programming language called mu, which I had to build first 🤣

That’s the right answer! You are one gold star closer to decorating the North Pole. [Continue to Part Two]

Whoo! Making progress! With AoC 2025 solutions implemented in my own toy language 🤣

Ahh that’s because I forgot to call main() at the end of the source file. mu is a bit of a dynamic programming language, mix of Go(ish) and Python(ish).

$ ./bin/mu examples/aoc2025/day1.mu 
Execution failed: undefined variable readline

Come back from my trip, run my AoC 2025 Day 1 solution in my own language (mu) and find it didn’t run correctly 🤣 Ooops!

$ ./bin/mu examples/aoc2025/day1.mu

And I’m back from my holidays! 🥳 Back to work boo 😒

@bender@twtxt.net agreed

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com probably a bug on my end with the bridge. I’ll figure it out with your help when I get home from my holidays.

@bender@twtxt.net that’s kind of what I was getting it initially yeah

@movq@www.uninformativ.de this is brilliant!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @zvava@twtxt.net I think people get sick of everything changing all the time and so don’t bother adopting things to change when things are already good enough 🤷

Ba Na Hills and it’s basically clouds at this point 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think WebP being new just hasn’t seen widespread adoption everywhere (yet) 🧐

i’m always open to suggestions: PRs also welxome 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net

@bender@twtxt.net No no we did!!! Just the photos are rubbish 😂

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ahh you are a brilliant man 🙌

Went to Ba Na Hills today, but honestly it was so cold and misery i couldn’t take very good photos 🤣 Here’s a few shots i managed!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de BahahahGG 🤣🤣🤣

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net do you know what I also find equally just as stupid and dumb is having to upgrade the software license on something just to be able to get OIDC or OAuth support ffs 🤦‍♂️

can somebody please transcribe what he said and post it here? 🙏 I think it’s too good just to waste in a video it needs to be preserved. 🤣

Need to fix:

• threads
  -media and links

We’ll all my posts are making it to the “Fediverse” https://bridge.twtxt.net/users/c350a5e5fb9d9457

@bender@twtxt.net i’m just pointing out that it’s one of those fundamental RS 232 standards that will never die 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think even modern PC still come with serial ports they just don’t wire them up anymore right? They’re still there in the board itself, though just unwired.

This is an example of the kind of garbage release notes from this conventional commit autogenerated crap 🤣

This ☝️ I proxy my SSH traffic and it requires a valid account check to occur.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I couldn’t agree more! I think good commit messages are very useful, however, and I’d much prefer the conventional mood style for Commit messages, but rather prefer telling a story rather than this weird syntax all over the shop!

I kind of hate conventional commit messages: https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/#summary

but I am loving reading RFC 2119: https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2119.txt

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha 🤣

Confirmed it’s called Tao Tao 🤣

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Aren’t yhere onlu 12 puzzles this year? 🧐

@movq@www.uninformativ.de What about a drop bear? 🧐🤣😆

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Are you using your Gitea username instead of got@ ? Are you forwarding auth?

@bender@twtxt.net are you able to send me a video recording of how that sounds because I don’t think that that’s what they called it at the breakfast? 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de well I’ve got several minutes of at least three people’s attention now didn’t it? 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net actually I think it’s a little more nuance than that because for example with salty chat, we have support for DNS based delegation via SRV records and your identity is associated with your Apex Dom name and of course the keys.

I actually don’t understand why Federation and activity pub is so goddamn hard to migrate from one instance to another 🧐

@bender@twtxt.net Same. I think i might have played with it at some point!

@bender@twtxt.net ha ha it started the V something and I don’t understand how to reproduce Vietnamese name 🤣

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe what app is that?

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com does that mean your identity gets associated with your Apex domain or your sub domain?

it’s not an apple and it’s not a guava

@bender@twtxt.net LOL 🤣

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Yes! 🙌
