@prologic@twtxt.net Hmmmmmmmm … 🤔

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Thanks!

On the AI changelog part, though, I’d rather recommend to just not have a changelog at all.

I’m afraid that ship has sailed. You can rest assured that someone who uses AI/LLMs for their code (which is almost everybody at this point) will most certainly also use it for changelogs.

I actually considered not mentioning AI output at all, because this just opens a huge can of worms … 😞

While going through these terrible GitHub release pages, I also found these “New Project Contributors” sections

Yeah, they play on a nerd’s pride.

Now, it’s just the same auto shitshow with MR titles in a rolling date-versioned release scheme. It’s just our team who has to deal with that, though. I think I’m the only one who is not a fan of it.

I’ve found that this whole situation is much worse at work than it is in the Free Software world. At work, it’s literally work and hardly anybody actually cares. We still don’t have all people convinced that writing good commit messages or using good branch names is worth the time. It’s … oh god, no, I’m going to stop here, this is bad for my mental health. 😅

Suffice it to say, all release notes at work are now AI-generated. Nobody gives a fuck.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hahaha, great timing! :-D I love your article and agree with almost all your points.

On the AI changelog part, though, I’d rather recommend to just not have a changelog at all.

Another important thing for me is the deprecation notice section. What do I need to look out for in the future? Should I start to migrate to another API soon? Even right now? Or does it have time?

While going through these terrible GitHub release pages, I also found these “New Project Contributors” sections (yeah, for that, they found the time to make a section) annoying. Don’t get me wrong, sure, credit where credit is due. But come on. Soooooo much space for an inefficiently formatted (and also unsorted) list. At least it was easy enough to skip over it.

And then, there are also these changelogs or rather notice documents in general that are infested with multicolored emojis all over the place. My brain’s spam filter kicks in and shoves everything to /dev/null immediately. It’s especially a thing at work.

In my previous work project, we also used the Keep A Changelog Format. That was great. You wouldn’t believe how often I resorted back to that document. At least twice a week, often several times a day. I was very glad that we put in this effort. Of course, writing the changelog took its time, but it was worth every minute and more. Reading a many months old item, it was immediately clear. I was our best customer in that regard.

Now, it’s just the same auto shitshow with MR titles in a rolling date-versioned release scheme. It’s just our team who has to deal with that, though. I think I’m the only one who is not a fan of it.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Now that you mention it, there is some steam from manholes in the winter. 🤔 This is all energy that gets lost … I don’t know how much of it, but it’s lost. 🤷‍♀️

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org This is the draft so far, let me know what you think: https://movq.de/blog/drafts/changelog/POSTING-en.html

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org … I am literally writing a blog post about changelogs at this very moment … 😂 I am certainly adding the “‘add X’ and then later ‘remove X’” to my list of DON’Ts. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Next town, they use Fernwärme from the waste incineration plant to heat the hospital and probably also parts of the neighborhood. I don’t know how good it works, but in the cold months there’s always steam coming out of the manholes along the road through the woods. I very rarely am in this area, but whenever I am, the steam on the side of the road always amazes me.

@bender@twtxt.net Yeah, you absolutely must experience them yourself in person. :-)

@apptester@twtxt.net Cool! 😎 My Offline-first Go/WASM + HTMX powered Yarn / Twtxt client is working 👌

@marcorocco@roccodrom.de such a feast! I had lentils soup, and a couples of eggs with onions in a scramble. Not bad, but not great. Your sounds very appealing!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org having seeing, and played with fireflies as a child I envy you. We have none around here. Children have no idea what a firefly is. I mean, they do, but vague, and based on videos and telly.

@thecanine@twtxt.net Nice! 🤯

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Fernwärme it is. %)

@bender@twtxt.net Those damn foreigners shall not enjoy our German music, how dare they! Something like that.

Even lower resolution sitting canine, made trying to find out, if one under 20x20 is possible, came to be 18x15.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hmm, indeed, this sounds a bit weird. Is it Fernwärme?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I don’t know what it is. It’s this damn central heating here (distributed over the entire village), where, if something breaks at their end, hundreds of households are affected. 🙄

(I don’t get why anyone would build a central heating system in the first place. Isn’t this super inefficient?)

People think that “more words means more effort” – that used to be true, and it’s the opposite now.

Anyone can make 200 words. The real flex is turning those 200 words into 6.

Regarding software, I wonder when/if programmers will get this memo.

@prologic@twtxt.net yup, same here.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de What the heck! Construction work? Eventually, one has to resort to the good old bucket shower. Maybe raise the comfort level with a kettle.

It’s raining all day long over here. You could just stand outside for a while.

I hope it’s back sooner than later!

@prologic@twtxt.net Too bad.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de So Anubis does a whole lot more than I really wanted and it’s configuration is a lot more complicated. In my setup I basicaly just do this:

		pow @needs_pow {
			difficulty 18
			ttl 168h
			secret_env POW_SECRET
		}

In one of my site blocks. And the implementation itself is pretty simple too.

The lyrics are also fitting quite well I have to say. :-) https://www.die-aerzte-archiv.de/bela-b/songtexte/song/ninjababypowpow.html

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Uh, uh, uh, yeah, nice! Perfect time to spend the holidays in Green- or Iceland. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Huh, somehow I was assuming that Anubis was already lightweight (never took a closer look, though). What’s the issue with it? 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Work to rule. And yeah, absolutely horrible time to look for something else. :-(

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh yeah, way better! :-) I didn’t spot the bug, though.

I think I could work with the feature set. I typically don’t need a lot. Until I do. :-D The message tree in tt is an example of that. But tt is also special that it needs something like this in the first place. It’s unusual.

There you go, it really does look better: https://movq.de/v/69d82e39f4/vid-1781183062.mp4

@kiwu@twtxt.net dog tired. Like, both, physically (and my neck and lower back hurts), and mentally. I am whole drained.

Heads up (literally): There’s going to be a solar eclipse in August: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_eclipse_of_August_12,_2026 Mostly partial, unless you happen to live in Greenland/Iceland/Spain.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org

And maybe slow down a tad once you’re back.

Not sure if that’s possible in this company. 🤔 (This is the worst time to look for a new job, though. Alles im Umbruch.)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah, it probably would look better. I might fix that. It’s just laziness, the implementation was easier this way. 😅

Glad you find it interesting! And honestly, I agree, nobody but me would use this anyway. There are more mature and featureful toolkits out there.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Aaaaahhhhhhhh! That explains it! 😅

@bender@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de Ta! It’s the chemtrails that they cannot stomach. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Be careful, sounds like the latter to me. Get a good rest, though! And maybe slow down a tad once you’re back. But now, enjoy your private hacking. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That is really cool! Maybe it would look nicer if the selected entry highlighted the whole row, not just the individual cells in that row without the column spacers. :-? But maybe I’m wrong. Everyone has their own taste.

And no, it’s not pointless at all. I find this really interesting. The videos and photos are perfect for me. Even if I had the source code, I would not use that toolkit, as I’m not a fan of movable windows in TUIs. I want all my own programs to be fullscreen all the time. 8-) Having said that, it’s still an absolutely brilliant source of inspriation that will come in handy one day. So, keep posting. :-)

@bender@twtxt.net Yeah, no, not gonna happen. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de release the codeeeeeeeeee! Dewww iiiittttt!! :-P

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Those poor unicorns. Why do they have to puke all the time? 😢🦄

I’m working on a fix right now.
