2025-03-26 18:31:51 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> I have bad memories of being young and trying to figure out what the hell is tinfo and how do I get it on opensuse
2025-03-26 18:31:29 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Athas: after reading your top article, I again start to wonder to thin air, why does GHC link your program to so many system libraries

2025-03-26 18:16:25 +0100 <Athas> Go for the tabloid look and make your titles clickbait. "What are monads? You'll never believe it!"
2025-03-26 18:15:57 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Also I need better colors and bigger titles
2025-03-26 18:15:49 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> But it's hard to do
2025-03-26 18:15:49 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Yes!
2025-03-26 18:15:16 +0100 <Athas> You need columnar layout.
2025-03-26 18:14:58 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Some I tried to style mine like a newspaper (and only 25% succeeded) https://blog.morj.men/
2025-03-26 18:14:15 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> I quit infosec some years ago
2025-03-26 18:14:12 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> You know how all infosec researchers use the exact same terminal-style black and white theme for their blogs? (=

2025-03-26 18:12:51 +0100 <Athas> Just make it look like this: https://sigkill.dk/ Terminals ought to come in two colours: amber and green, and the latter is still available.
2025-03-26 18:11:22 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Also different gemini browsers, some of them actually look pretty somehow
2025-03-26 18:10:47 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Compare vimdocs by Bram and lua docs by neovim team
2025-03-26 18:10:36 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Yeah well making things look good in a terminal is also not trivial :D
2025-03-26 18:10:08 +0100 <Athas> The solution is to reject bitmap displays and use CSS to make it look like a terminal no matter what.
2025-03-26 18:09:27 +0100 <haskellbridge> Same with my personal blog >_>
2025-03-26 18:09:27 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> > It was much harder to make it look good
2025-03-26 18:09:02 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Good idea with the '#' actually. Though now it's in a vimdoc situation where you have to use prefixes/sufixes to distinguish struct foo and func foo

2025-03-26 18:06:42 +0100 <Athas> I wrote a programming language doc generator (in Haskell, actually) and generating HTML was not unpleasant. Blaze is good. I also did not find it challenging to make it console-friendly. It was much harder to make it look good in Firefox, actually...
2025-03-26 18:06:18 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> That could work then, specially if you ignore CSS
2025-03-26 18:05:25 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> Unless you are wrapping the GTK/QT Webkits, that's not hard
2025-03-26 18:05:23 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> I'm not completely crazy ;-)
2025-03-26 18:05:16 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Well not a complete web browser, but a browser for the pages I myself generate. That sounds like something possible
2025-03-26 18:04:52 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> Do not write a web browser unless you have 5 years or more of free time and do not care about your mental health
2025-03-26 18:04:13 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> Oh and linking to specific parts to files is easy on HTML with the "#" thing on the URL, so technically searching on the same site can also be made via a dynamic page (actually a redirect would be enough for a single result, and a list of links would be enough for many results)

2025-03-26 18:02:24 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Sounds maybe fun
2025-03-26 18:02:17 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Do I also write a minimalistic HTML browser?
2025-03-26 18:02:07 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Well but it's me who wants to view the docs in the terminal /and/ have the search at the same time :D
2025-03-26 18:01:15 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> Like, those browsers will ignore JS, they won't explode or something
2025-03-26 18:00:54 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> Just make that search optional. Also searching on many pages is possible via a dynamic page, Hackage does it.
2025-03-26 18:00:47 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Morj> Vimdocs also has almost has hyperlinks, and almost has structured search, sooo
