I'm thinking seriously about getting Google out of my life, and trying NextCloud.
  • Kind of, you can share individual albums so it is possible to share all but one. This may or may not be practical though depending on your album structure.

    Another option is to share your entire library but archive the photos you don't want to be seen.

    It would be good of there was an official feature for this but these are currently the two best options.

  • I'm thinking seriously about getting Google out of my life, and trying NextCloud.
  • My only advice would be to go full NextCloud at first for simplicity instead of trying to integrate it with other services.

    That being said, if later on you're looking for a way to store images I'd highly recommend Immich, I just finished setting up my own hosting setup a few days ago and it is gorgeous.

  • looking for some polybar/rofi module to manage notifications
  • Not for polybar but you might like to look into SwayNotificationCenter, I use it as the notification daemon of my hyprland setup and it has all the previous notifications in a menu with a do-not-disturb mode. I use a keybind to open up the menu but you could add an icon to polybar that when clicked runs swaync-client -t to toggle the menu.

  • What are you working on this week? (Apr. 21, 2024)
  • That is quite a tricky situation to handle, there will be the option to suggest edits though so hopefully over time the arguments on each side will get clearer even if they were heated at the start.

  • What are you working on this week? (Apr. 21, 2024)
  • I do quite like that idea, I think I'll have the best points from each side at the top, the ones that have been disputed at the bottom, and the ones currently in discussion in between. This will hopefully give an overview of the best arguments from both sides.

    On a separate note, I was thinking of using this for more political discussions but I do like the idea of having technical subjects as well so will add them in.

  • What are you working on this week? (Apr. 21, 2024)
  • This week I'm working on the backend for a little platform that I'm making for debating. Where each side can make points and reply to others people's points, then after a point has been argued out to the bottom it either goes green to show it still stands or grey to show there's a good counter-argument. The frontend is made with SolidJS and I'm really having fun making it so far.

  • `unfmt`: A compile-time pattern matching library that reverses the interpolation process of `format!`.
  • I love the concept! I recently wanted something just like this for a Flutter app I was making to parse a filename into a user defined format i.e. 2024-04-12.txt with %Y-%M-%D.txt to {year: 2024, month: 04, day: 12}. I'll certainty be using this the next time I need anything like that in Rust though.

  • GitHub scam notifications

    Recently I've noticed there have been GitHub accounts that post some scam, mention a bunch of random accounts so it ends up in people's emails, and then delete the post before anyone can report them.

    Now this isn't a big deal to me but when I got mentioned in one they deleted it before I could see the notification and for some reason GitHub now eternally shows me the blue dot as if I have an unread notification but when I click on to it there's nothing there. Curiously at the side there's also a little ‘1’ as if I have a notification even though it of course can't show it.

    Has anyone else experienced this and has anyone found a way to solve it?

    Should I use Rust and Go together or just Go?
  • In my experience combining multiple languages usually creates more complexity and is slower than each of them individually because you need to convert the data structures of one language into those of another. Both of them are great languages and I've made web services in both so whatever one you pick will be a good choice.

    As for which one to pick, although Rust is my favorite language, if you don't know it it'll take a while to learn. So for this project I'd say to go with Go because it's simpler and you really won't notice a performance difference unless you've got a huge amount of traffic.

    If you have any more questions feel free to ask!
