  3. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🗂️🔗 Starting in 1895, Belgian lawyers Paul Otlet and Henri La Fontaine built the #Mundaneum, a vast paper #archive of over 15 million index cards meant to gather and classify all human #knowledge.

    Otlet also imagined “electric #telescopes,” networked screens users could query by phone, an early blueprint for the #internet. The project was dismantled after the 1940 Nazi invasion, but survives today as a #museum in #Mons and an online catalog.

  4. Пишем huntZip — Как я написал библиотеку для архивов на Python

    Hello world! Как то раз мне понадобилось работать с архивами в одном из своих проектов, но тут возникла проблема — Для ZIP тебе нужен zipfile, для какого нибудь TAR — tarfile, а для других (типа 7z и rar) вообще нужны rarfile и py7zr, И из за этого код превращается в не красивый забор из кучи и кучи импортов. И мне это надоело, вот где то 2–3 дня назад я начал делать свою библиотеку для архивов, которую я назвал huntZip.

  5. What rots quietly

    ./blog.sh doctor asks whether the installation is sound and takes a second. It has nothing to say about an archive of four thousand posts in which one picture never downloaded, three permalinks lead nowhere, and two posts claim the same old…

  7. The way out ships with it

    An engine that cannot hand your writing back is a hosting service with extra steps. The importers have always pointed one way — twenty-two sources, everything coming home. ./blog.sh export is the other direction, and it should have been there…

  10. I'm building a Socrates-style fanfic recommendation bot for Discord and I'd love your input.

    There was a bot on Discord I used before called Socrates, based on Flipper and I wanted to build something like that. Mine is using data from my fanfiction archive so it won't give proper recommendations until a few users like a few fics. After that it should get better the more it's used.

    Forum post
    Code repository
    Link to a Discord channel to use the bot in this server
    Link to connect Discord bot to a server
    Telegram group to use the bot
    Matrix room to use the bot

    What it does

    It's a companion bot for that self-hosted archive — think "your own AO3" that can also import/scrape from other sites. The bot gives you fanfic recommendations right in Discord, Socrates-style:

    • Recommendations from your reading history!recs, !fresh, !gems, !roll, with pagination (!next / !prev / !page 3)
    • Cross-platform taste: AO3, fanfiction.net, and RoyalRoad are unified into one works model, so your history on one site feeds recommendations across all of them. No "500 favs limit" wall.
    • Slash commands for search, quotes, downloads: /search, /ask (ask a question about a fic's content in natural language), /quote, /download (EPUB/MOBI/PDF straight to Discord)
    • Library commands: bookmark, rate, kudos, block/unblock, updates on followed fics
    • Community stuff: fic requests board, roadmap voting, links back to your web profile

    The honest limitation

    The recommendation engine learns from what people like on the archive — and right now my site has zero users. So "personalized" recs won't be proper until a few people like a few fics. The more people actually use it, the better it gets. Once there's real taste data to learn from, the recs should beat what you got from Socrates, because it's learning from actual engagement, not just what's popular.

    So, what would you want?

    If you were going to invite a fanfic bot to your Discord server, what would make you actually use it?

    • Recs based on what? (fandoms you're active in, specific pairings, tone/vibe, length?)
    • What's the one feature that would make it your default rec source?
    • How do you feel about bots that track your reading history and suggest you what to read next vs. ones that give more generic suggestions?
    • Anything Socrates used to do that you miss and wish existed elsewhere?

    I'm building this solo and want to make something the community actually wants, not just what I think is cool. Fire away.
