<shinmera> 'lichatters' for weird french people that somehow find it and then leave after three messages
14:33:25
Colleen
<shinmera> and then there's 'stevenchan', which is my old tiny circle of friends that I initially made lichat for.

<shinmera> SAL9000: by the way, in the time we haven't worked on the weechat client, the server's gained some more abilities
14:38:31
SAL9000
to be clear, I'm talking about the horizontal line that you get when you "come back to" a channel that has unreads in it
14:39:20
SAL9000
I don't remember last-read being available in weechat's api surface but I might be wrong

Colleen
<shinmera> The only problem left to solve is how dependencies are specified and, relatedly, how the project definition infers them from minimal information
14:42:52
Colleen
<shinmera> but once that's in place I can have it discover a project definition, and actually execute a plan to load it in.
15:07:39
Colleen
<shinmera> But I would ultimately like a C module to build my foreign deps in the same chain.
15:09:14
Colleen
<shinmera> if you were connecting to lichat from another client, you wouldn't see it.
15:10:05
Colleen
<shinmera> both of these features are really small things that aren't really necessary, but would bridge the gap between this and something like discord a bit more still.
15:21:06
Colleen
<selwyn> i do like the appeal of simply having something on tmux and it's always an ssh connection away
15:26:40
Colleen
<shinmera> I feel like stuff like maintainer, author, license, etc. are things that don't really belong into a build definition
15:43:41
Colleen
<selwyn> imo risky to assume that all of those things don't belong in a build definition
15:44:19
Colleen
<selwyn> what if you want to do some ci, and if a build fails then the maintainer is emailed
15:50:48
Colleen
<shinmera> but again I feel like it should be smarter and get that info elsewhere, instead of relying on the build system to cover it
15:54:01
Colleen
<selwyn> just realised that doxygen is a play on words combining documentation and oxygen
16:10:30
Colleen
<shinmera> needed something that was stable in the presence of a running system and also stable in the presence of a target machine that's not the source machine
16:13:26
Colleen
<shinmera> given how many of my projects end up as broken unstable messes, I'm not sure how much there is to admire :)
