  3. Elvish has some improvements over bash, sure, but it also has some beyond bonkers design decisions that make life harder than they need to be. Enough that I'm contemplating abandoning my Elvish experiment and just concentrating on YSH as my shell scripting replacement (and that's not to say that YSH isn't a catastrophic mess of gibberish at times either, mind.)

    (And it's not like I'm trying to do something complicated - it's just reading lines from a file and creating some SQL based on the contents of those files. No, I do not want to be doing it in $PROPER language because this is a quick fudge that already has a replacement in the pipeline and this has a deadline of about 124 minutes from now.)

  18. Sitting in Saaremaa (EE) at a BBQ catching the view on an elvish tattoo… it is a line of a William Ernest Henley poem called Invictus. “I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul.”

  23. I just realized that there is only one character difference between #elfish and #selfish. That’s probably why it’s spelled #elvish.

    Clever, am I?

  27. "The Tolkien weekend" in the Langlard castle has ended. I'm back home, preparing to leave for Amsterdam tomorrow.

    I would like to thank everyone who helped me put this event on and especially Bénédicte Soquet ( facebook.com/benedicte.soquet ).

    I'm having a coffee with a delicious custard tart.

    See you all next year (with maybe a bit more photos 😜 ).

  31. I've always loved #PoshGit. It's a fantastic tool for #PowerShell that shows you various symbols related to #Git directly in the prompt, like the current branch, how many files are staged, changed, how many commits you have comparing to remote, and so on and so forth. Now I need something like this but for my #Ubuntu in #WSL. Testing #Starship, so far so good. The only little thing is that it tries to show empty Git prompt even in a directory with no repo in it. But the big thing is that it's cross-platform and cross-shell, it even supports recent versions of #Elvish.

  40. This is a very short quote from a very long text by Tolkien. He explained how his Tengwar were used for the Old Noldorin (ON) language. You never heard of it? This language does not exist anymore in the last Phase of Tolkien's writings (circa 1949-1973). There is no Old Noldorin in "The lord of the Rings" or "The Silmarillion".

    About 1949, Old Noldorin was 'transformed' into his new Old Sindarin language and most of these rules became irrelevant. 🤷‍♂️
