  1. Fava, le nouveau souffle gastronomique de Baille

    À Marseille, le boulevard Baille dessine une frontière invisible. À 10 minutes de marche, le Camas bouillonne, cœur (avec…

  2. To be clear, #ActualBudget was REALLY getting good when I left - felt like jumping ship right as it hit its stride

    They've added custom reports with Excel-style formulas, a burndown chart, and the UI keeps improving. Genuinely great #opensource budgeting software

    But as a #SoftwareEngineer, the scriptability of #beancount is a huge win. I can pipe data through #fzf for fuzzy account selection, write #Python scripts that understand my finances, and build weird custom tools that would be impossible in a GUI app

    Sometimes you just need to "grep" your money

  4. Made the switch from #ActualBudget to #beancount for my personal finances

    The ecosystem is nice
    - #fava, #beangulp for imports, #beanahead for recurring transactions, #favaCustomDashboards for charts, and #favaInvestor for portfolio tracking

    Also went overboard with custom stuff:
    - PDF importers with #ML payee/account prediction
    - Custom linters for validation
    - Forked #favaEnvelope for envelope budgeting
    - #Makefile with 28 targets for price fetching to #FIRE calcs

    #plainTextAccounting is great when you can just write #Python to solve your edge cases

  9. any #beancount or #fava users here? i’ve been wrestling with a fava-envelope bug for days and unfortunately, i think i’ve hit the upper ceiling of my limited python ability 😭 this is the issue i’ve filed on the repo if anyone’s able to help: github.com/polarmutex/fava-env i’d be eternally grateful

    the initial installation simply fails, what i’ve had success doing is building from source in a virtual environment (homebred-installed python). the plugin registers but doesn’t render any information

    hopefully fosstodon gets this to the right people! thanks so much in advance 🙏

  10. I spent a good amount of time yesterday afternoon prepping late-spring shelling and snap #peas and #fava beans for an absolutely seasonal dinner.

  11. My 10x25' plot at the community garden. Currently 2 rows of fava beans, 3 rows of carrots, 4 rows of shelling peas, and 10 tomatoes. Central portion covered with bird netting to keep out the birds and the squirrels. #CommunityGarden #GrowYourOwn #allotment #garden #gardening #swarthmore #peas #fava #tomatoes

  12. I like being able to use flexible, rock solid, industrial strength tools from the huge programmer ecosystem to maintain and analyse my financial records. For one example: + + /#jj (complemented by ledger-mode, flycheck-hledger, , , ..)

    I like knowing that my data and reports are safe, portable, owned by me, utterly trustworthy, and get strictly better over time.
    And if needed could be read or reconstructed by humans from a printout.

  13. beancount 如果是服務要怎麼紀錄可以更好?我現在是純粹當前一年年費就紀錄下去,但其實這應該要算成接下來12個月的分攤消費,只是帳款是在當前繳掉

    這樣才會反應每月平均的消費,不然就會變成 service 那個月消費爆增

  14. I need some #nixos #followerpower

    I have a #beancount git repository. I want to push that to one of my hosts. That host should run the #fava software and automatically update its checkout (and restart fava) after I pushed to it.
    Having a bare repository and a checkout for hosting is ok, the checkout should be a shallow clone in this case (dont need the history for serving a specific commit/latest master).

    Of course I want to conf all that using nix. It is ok to use containers, but not docker, only nixos containers (systemd-nspawn).

    How to?

    Bonus points: that repository is also a #gitannex repo!

    :boost_ok:

  15. Shelling this year's harvest of fava beans. I didn't know what #fava beans or also called "broad beans" were a couple years ago, but I found them while looking for food to grow that can save water use, that is, like plants from Mediterranean climate zones. They not only grow well during our Winter rainy season in So Cal on little supplemental irrigation but help improve soil fertility. They are also a plant that has been grown for 10,000 years. Why you don't see these in our McGrocery stores is explain by online search as this: They need to be shelled and then preferably par boiled and skinned. Oh no! Work. They are delicious, though, even raw, and they are nutritious. They taste more like peas than beans. Gonna probably make some hummus with this batch.

    @amin @sotolf I’ve been using #Beancount and #Fava for a couple years for plain-text accounting and they’ve been working great!

  17. "The Kraft Heinz Co. said Wednesday it’s bringing dairy-free macaroni and cheese to the U.S. for the first time. The company said the new recipe has the same creamy texture and flavor of its beloved 85-year-old original Mac & Cheese but replaces dairy with ingredients like #fava bean protein and coconut oil powder."

  18. 'Aprovecho' fava beans relaxing in a Rhizobium bath. They're in the ground now so the waiting begins — 110 days, so sometime in early July. #garden #gardening #vegetables #fava #FavaBeans #allotment

  19. Fava Bean (Vicia faba) in the garden. We typically plant this over the winter as a cover crop, to improve the soil, and to pair with liver and a nice Chianti #garden #gardening #beans #fava #favabeans #flowers

  20. Lesson learned: #Fava #beans don't survive frosts below -10°. I might try again these days since the temperatures will probably stay above -5° until spring and these beans supposedly survive mild frosts.

  21. @liw #Beancount has an *amazing* Web UI, which is indeed #Fava . You can see it in action here: beancount.github.io/fava/

  22. The target versions of #Beancount and #Fava for the next #Debian stable release are now available in debian/testing:
    $ sudo apt install beancount fava
    If you want to give feedback on the packaging of these great #plaintextaccounting tools, this is the time !
