"Software projects should only be estimated in days, weeks, months or years.

Not a specific number of weeks, mind you. Just saying "It'll take weeks" or "It's months worth of work" is as good as it gets."

@lorbeerbund mich hat eher die mediale Erwartungshaltung erschrocken. fühlte sich nach geiferndem mob an der köpfe rollen sehen will, egal wessen egal warum.

scholz und lauterbach haben beide soviel dreck am stecken, die können sich auf den kopf stellen und sie werden nicht mehr "gut" in diesem leben.

@ulintl

@velartrill haha, from the manpage: "The default device is ps." :)
regarding groff-pdf-output, a bonus would be to add stuff like links and pdf-TOCs there. i think there is a paper somewhere explaining the required requests.

also i've been working on a markdown replacement. simpler syntax, much more capable, ref impl is written in lua (no external dependencies beyond the interpreter tho), has an actual (if still very rough) spec, very compact and extensible, comes with freedesktop integration (double-click on a *.ct file and it'll render and open in your browser). it generates pages like the attached and the page generator is very configurable (accent colors, light-on-dark, page width, etc)

it's nowhere near finished (i'm planning to add at least groff support in addition to html, so it can be used to make pdfs, ideally also postscript), but it's already pretty usable as-is. has most of markdown's features (except blockquotes, working on those) and many more besides. i'll probably have the spec fully implemented in a few days

i'm writing this primarily for my own use, to replace the godawful perl script with its hand-implemented markdown-oid that i currently use to render story chapters for http://ʞ.cc but if anyone else is interested, i hope i'll be more broadly useful as well. and suggestions

I was so scared this was gonna turn out horrible. So happy it didn't 😄

"#Streeck verwies in dem Interview darauf, dass auf Dauer nicht alle halbe Jahre neu geimpft werden könne. Zudem irritiere ihn, dass zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt schon über eine vierte Impfung laut nachgedacht werde."

It starts with the Government forcing you to get a shot every 6 months because you are "endangering other people being out unvaxxed" and it ends with the government forcibly sterilizing you because if you have kids it will "endanger the community by resource strain" and forcing you to take SSRIs because you "endanger everyone around you when you're upset"

this made me so mad i had to log back in just to post it

@frederic@mastodon.bayern ne, natürlich nicht, aber wenn mit sowas ruhe wäre.. :)

@frederic@mastodon.bayern das würde am ende sogar mehr bringen als vieler anderer mumpitz, UV sterilisation wird auch für wasser angewandt.

@ulintl @lorbeerbund vorhin wurde im radio gefragt ob wieler jetzt nicht zurücktreten müsse weil das rki das paper vor der regierungskonferenz veröffentlicht habe (und nicht in absprache). ein "fehltritt und das wars dann scheint das erwartete verfahren zu sein.

@ulintl erinnert ein bisschen an die zeiten als kommunisten berufsverbote bekamen..

How has Log4j affected your life?....This.....this is how...

@frederic@mastodon.bayern "Rechtsradikale" sind wohl welche die radikal ihre rechte einfordern xD
