It seems they changed the github theme? It's uglier and it breaks my custom dark style :(

My home office battlestation

I also managed to sneak a puppy in for good measure...

Made a screenshot of my linux desktop (dwm, fake busy) and posted it to reddit, might as well post here too.

It's been a while, time for another puppy photo! #dog #puppy #kooikerhondje

And now also on Sourcehut for those with a dislike for github: https://git.sr.ht/~proycon/vocage (patches welcome)

Then again, rushing out to the streets with champagne, fireworks and 'oliebollen' to mark this occasion would have made for a pretty strange image...

Oh great, I missed celebrating the 16 * 10^8 seconds since unix epoch turnover, just today. Now I have to wait another 3.17 years for the next one... or I just wait for the 2038 32-bit signed int overflow and the subsequent apocalypse (y2k was far too tame imho)...

Vocage, my new terminal-based flashcard tool, is now also in the Arch User Repository, install with for example: yay -S vocage-git

I just released 'vocage', a minimalistic terminal-based vocabulary learner or flashcard tool that operates on simple plain-text tsv files. It uses a spaced-repetition algorithm to help you efficiently retain words. All open source & written in rust 🦀

Possibly useful for NLP and data science: I wrote a small CLI tool in
🦀Rust to split text-stream data into multiple sets (like train, test, development), with some fancy features (like multiple dependent input files, order preservation, custom delimiters). https://github.com/proycon/ssam

I succumbed to a typical coder trap: Reinventing the wheel... again... but it'll be a pretty wheel when I'm done with it! Much rounder than all the others..

One of the most epic/longest pieces I ever played on piano: Prelude to War (composed by Bear McCreary, featured in Battlestar Galactica): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qcwNrhoXZM

This was four years ago, I'm afraid I forgot most already by now, time to practise again perhaps...
