what extensions (if any) do you use on your browser

browsing the web is utterly and egregiously intolerable without at least ublock origin and noscript. then, for QOL, I have pass-ff, tree tabs, and vimium.

vimium is often more annoying than it is helpful, though. extensions have basically no control over the actual UI of the browser, which means that extensions which aim to augment it in any appreciable way must be awful hacks. it is probably just better to use firefox’s builtin keybinds.

2023 04 27 02:37:00

can you reveal the region on the back of your hand near your thumb that pokes inward when you spread your hand forcefully or do a thumbs up, while the region in question is concave

have you ever edited wikipedia? what are your thoughts on people who edit wikipedia? would you ever consider editing wikipedia?

editing wikipedia can be a great thing. I’ve edited wikipedia a few times before. I believe the last wikipedia edit I made was to the article for Jon Arbuckle. I edited out an unsourced claim that Jon Arbuckle performed a DIY appendectomy on himself. I happen to know that Arbuckle does indeed lack an appendix, but I do not recall any evidence of him having performed self-surgery.

there is a button. if you press this button, your biological need to sleep will be completely removed, by magic. however, you will thereafter be unable to sleep. do you press the button? why?

if actually presented this opportunity, I would not press the button without a very high confidence of a lack of caveats (such as being immune to anestetic! that would be fairly bad). in such a case, I am still unsure if I would press it. I would never see release from my thoughts into unconsciousness, which may significantly deteriorate my mental health (bar zhfg gura pbafvqre… jung eryrnfr erznvaf?).

do you prefer apples or oranges?

I prefer oranges.

2023 04 23 07:54:44

what are you thoughts on spelling? do you care when people spell things incorectly?

descriptivism is the only model of language which is not nonsensical, but I would be lying if I were not sometimes bothered by the way people spell things. this does not translate into me uselessly and obnoxiously prescribing them to change the spelling of an IM message or email, but you can misspell things, even in a descriptive measure, and it is better for clarity if you spell things comprehensibly when you are publishing something.

2023 04 22 13:15:26

what keyboard layout do you use? if the keyboard layout is qwerty, have you ever considered using a different layout, and what caused you to stick to qwerty? if the keyboard layout is not qwerty, what made you choose your layout, and how long did it take to learn that layout?

I’ve considered other keyboard layouts, and I have determined that switching is not worth the initial effort to learn the layout combined with the continual effort of dealing poor software support. the benefits seem too nebulous, for me, to outweigh this effort.

opinion on saponification (process) and saponification (word)

I don’t know much about saponification, but I think it’s probably quite cool. I enjoy crafts, and soapmaking seems like an interesting and ancient craft.

the word is phonæsthetically quite great.

have you ever eaten lemon raw, on its own? if so, what were your thoughts on this?

I’ve done so many times. I don’t do so often because it is bad for one’s teeth. however, I find it to be an enjoyable experience. you can peel them like oranges and pull apart their segments in exactly the same way. upon consumption, one is met with impeccable sourness.

2023 03 22 18:10:23

Didn’t you have a B compiler? I don’t see it on your git (anymore)

I was attempting to do that indeed. I didn’t get very far whatsoever, and I didn’t have much useful code in the repository, so I took it down. I wanted to clear out all of the predominantly empty repositories on my site.

you can get to know me with a little bit of effort.

2023 03 02 06:16:52

i assume that there are some questions that have been asked here that you havent answered. what sort of questions are these, usually?

I usually answer everything, but I don’t usually answer:

  1. submissions that are not questions (or at least, useful or nice comments)
  2. questions posed already

2023 03 02 06:16:21

does the timestamp of the question refer to when the question was asked or answered? if when it was answered, can you see when a question was asked?

the timestamp is when the question is asked. sometimes, there is a significant delay between questions being asked and their being answered. for instance, I am answering this question at 2023-03-28 02:13:50.

I saw you have been doing for a while and I became jealous! I also want to know how to do. Seriously, how do I do? Because when you I saw you became happy so I also want to.

to be honest, I don’t actually find it to be so simple. I do wonder how constantly. when I muster it, I don’t actually understand the means by which I do.

do you enjoy tea or coffee or both or neither?

I enjoy tea. I have not had much coffee, but I have found the taste quite nice. I would like to try more, but I would have to drink decaffenated coffee, as the high amount of caffiene makes me feel sick, and I would probably not like to get addicted to it. although, I don’t know to what extent this affects the flavor.

2022 12 20 20:23:03

what is your favourite video file format? if this is too difficult, what is your least favourite video file format?

I’m not too sure about either. I don’t actually know very much about video file formats. however, pertaining to file formats per se, most video file formats are just containers, and inside, there can be data in any number of encodings. I would say that the encodings themselves are more interesting than the container, but I don’t really know much about them either.

2022 12 20 20:22:49

what is your favourite audio file format? if this is too difficult, what is your least favourite audio file format?

what is your favourite image file format? if this is too difficult, what is your least favourite image file format?

my favorite image format is PPM (specifically P6); it is the easiest to manipulate with code. of course, it is not very efficient. if you gzipped them, however, would it actually be worse than PNG? I ought to test. maybe gzipped PPMs will incurse.

according to the earth medical organi(s/z)ation association, you should eat ten thousand bees every day. are you?

everyone is always saying “consume bee” or “don’t consume bee”. however, no one really has a choice in the matter. bees exist in all of spacetime; everyone is consuming microbees and especially nanobees at all times. you’re breathing them, they’re in your bloodstream, they’re embedded in all of your tissue, and they’re obviously in any food you eat. since life evolved in the presence of bees, you probably couldn’t live without them.

2022 03 03 09:55:40

How did you make this quite cool website? I would also like to

for hosting, I self-host from a small single-board computer with low power requirements. this involved connecting the computer to my router, configuring the router, and configuring nginx to serve the pages of my website.

for the content of my website itself, I use a few things. my main website at citrons.xyz is generated using simple shell scripts that I wrote. I use a private git repository over ssh, and when I make changes, I push them, and I have a hook which runs the scripts to generate the HTML, which is then served by nginx.

interactive parts of my website often use CGI. to use CGI with nginx, I have to use a piece of software called fcgiwrap. the CGI scripts themselves are usually written in shell or lua. various things like the question page are simple enough such that they can be handled with a shell script, and so I like to do this as such because it is simpler than using something else. of course, some things, like zzcxz, are too complicated for shell to handle reasonably, and so I write them in languages such as lua.

some parts of my website, like john.citrons.xyz still use flask, which is a python web framework. I dislike flask, so I don’t make new things in it, but I haven’t rewritten them.

self-hosting is quite cool and worthwhile in my opinion, but it might be hard to do or even impossible depending on your circumstances and skillset. in that case, you can use static hosting services or something like a VPS if you want to run interactive software. for static hosting, I hold neocities in high regard; though, I would recommend you explore other options as well, simply due to the fact that if everyone made their website on neocities, it would centralize the indie web, and that would be self-defeating. in any case, I do have a neocities page as well.

2022 02 04 00:22:42

what are your inspirations, in general and also for this site?

that’s a pretty good question. I am often quite inspired by my friends. I am also inspired by my fixations. I will often become extremely distracted by interesting webs of hypertext, e.g. wikipedia, people’s blogs/personal websites, etc. this can cause inspiration.

otherwise, I am inspired by random subconcious processes. ideas will form in my mind, and I will feel a certain way, almost like a physical sensation, indicating my new fascination with this object that has entered my awareness. because this happens relatively often, I have a “vimwiki” page (rendered in HTML here) dedicated to such events. because motivating myself is quite difficult, this list has accumulated despite my interest in realizing its ideas. there are also many things that I have come up with that have not made it to this list for various reasons. they are lost to time.

what is your favorite regional restaurant chain?

hmm what qualifies as a restaurant chain? a certain restaurant named after a flower in a certain city that starts with “au” is one that I have some amount of fondness for, I suppose. it has two locations, I think. does this make it count as a “chain”? I am unsure if I have a favorite restaurant chain.

if we do not preclude restaurants without multiple locations, there is this certain asian restaurant which starts with a “kor” and ends with an “e” that I like quite a bit.

I might be forgetting something.

do you like chiptune? if so, would you consider yourself a “purist” (must be playable on real hardware) or a “pan enjoyer” (as long as the music is good it’s good)?

I do enjoy chiptune music. I certainly find it cool when a song conforms to interesting hardware constraints. however, the absence of such constraints does not preclude my enjoyment of a piece of music.

also who's your favorite artist?

I have not listened to enough chiptune in an intentional manner to have a favorite artist.

picture your ideal programming language. what is your ideal design for the string types in this language? for example, Python has `str` for Unicode text and `bytes` for bytestrings. Rust has too many to count. Haskell has `String`, which is a linked list of 32-bit `Char`s and is terrible, and a UTF-16 `Text` type which is slightly less terrible. what is the situation for your ideal programming language?

my ideal string type depends on the rest of the programming language. for instance, depending on the way that the programming language works, I may or may not want the strings to be interned vs just lists of characters. regardless, I like string types that are sequences of codepoints, the storage details of which are abstracted away. also, a separate type for binary data is desirable.
