@mastodonmigration @MastodonEngineering I'm nit even asking about #Notes on other Accounts...

• Tho that has no reason to,not be import-able alongside #Followings, #BlockedAccounts and #MutedAccounts…

relatedly: this is the script I use when I want to make my computer beep a few times to tell me a task is completed or something:

#!/bin/bash
# usage: soxbeep [N] [duration]
# where N = number of beeps (default 1)
# and duration = duration in seconds (default 0.33)
# try e.g. soxbeep.sh 7

n=1
duration=0.33
wavetype=tri

if [ "$1" ]; then
 n="$1"
fi
if [ "$2" ]; then
 duration=$2
fi
if [ "$3" ]; then
 wavetype=$3
fi

# penta M
notes=( A3 C4 D4 E4 G4 A4 C5 D5 E5 G5 )
function getnote() {
 echo "${notes[$RANDOM % ${#notes[@]} ]}"
}

command=''
for blah in $(seq $n); do
 note="$(getnote)"
 command="$command synth $duration $wavetype $note :"
done
# remove last ':'
command="${command:0:-1}"

play -q -n $command 2>&-

I have used variations of this basic idea since 2001, when my NetBSD webserver (an old 486 in my dorm room) would beep to us every minute whenever the ADSL modem randomly stopped responding. NetBSD is cool because you can just pipe to /dev/speaker, in Linux you'll need sox(1) installed.

Hot take: A good notes app should be merely a presentation layer that’s really good at manipulating Markdown files.

I've been playing around with streamlining documentation by pulling JSDoc comments straight into an #11ty website. I'll try and write it up once I get it to somewhere I'm a bit happier with.

For example, this page is partially generated based on the comments directly in the JavaScript code

https://gruber.r0b.io/postgres/

https://github.com/robb-j/gruber/blob/main/postgres/postgres-migrator.ts

It's pretty cool, and hopefully makes the documentation so much closer to edit when the code itself changes, Though I think there needs to be more curatability in it.

"If you wanna know how I write 2-3 books per year, blame the #cognitiveprosthesis of #blogging, which forces me to apply rigor to the #notes I take, and rewards me with a searchable database of everything I've ever found important, while stimulating a constant mnemonic rejuggling of all those thoughts that crystallizes into an endless stream of novel synthetic insights and road-tested ways to express them."
