How is this thing done? I tried Markdown code format here on Mastodon, using code HTML tags, neither work.

Is my suspicion using own instance with allowed code use correct? ActivityPub supports this, but Mastodon don't?

PS: This shows up as <code> tags on Mastodon.

Formatting a C64 Disk In 15 Seconds
Recently Commodore History investigated just how Commodore 1541 disk drives format disks, and why it took them over a minute. It was also an explanation of just what it means to format a floppy disk. We linked that last week.

Well, yesterday they posted a second video on matters involving formatting disks. (16½ min

My gut is telling me that Mastodon is having an issue today.

It could be WRONG, mind you; my gut doesn't have a perfect track record. But I have a feeling that suddenly a bunch of responses are going to flood in. Kind of like a surge of peristalsis, know what I mean?

That's how I view Mastodon: as a huge length of human intestine, pumping information along with occasional delays and blockages. Which makes it feel more •human•, oddly enough.

By the way, I'm really liking the use of bullets for emphasis instead of asterisks. It looks better, somehow. What do you think?

I wish my server had the option for basic text formatting like italics and boldface. I hate having to use ALL CAPS or *asterisks* or _underscores_ for emphasis!

#Mastodon #Formatting

does it make more sense to have it all one page per topic or create seperate pages and then link to them ? #orgmode #documentation #formatting

I just made a discovery here. I can "hide" tags by immediately following a divider (---) with them, like this!

Округление и форматирование чисел в React: адаптивный подход

Всем привет, на связи снова я — Дмитрий, React-разработчик. И сегодня хочу поднять тему, которая на первый взгляд кажется простой, но на практике может доставить немало сюрпризов - округление и форматирование чисел в интерфейсе. Изначально может показаться, что здесь сложного практически ничего нет: есть toFixed() и toLocaleString(), но практика показывает, что реальные интерфейсы почти никогда в это не укладываются. Почему? Потому что в разных диапазонах чисел пользователи ждут разного поведения. Именно с этим сталкиваются разработчики при работе с таблицами, отчётами, финансовыми данными и аналитикой. В этой статье я предложу функцию, которая решает определенные задачи округления и форматирования, и разберу, как она подбирает количество знаков после запятой в зависимости от величины числа Ниже опишу требования к форматированию, которые легли в основу функции, и покажу, как они отражаются в коде и в интерфейсе.

Can anyone recommend a way to automatically format the HTML in a Rails view template that uses ERB?

* prettier can format HTML, but messes up the contents of the ERB tags
* erb_lint can format the contents of the ERB tags and does _some_ limited formatting of the surrounding HTML
* there are a bunch of prettier extension node packages that claim to handle ERB, but as is all too often the case they all seem to be dead

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Even though the inline formatting in the block editor is meant to format existing text, you can also add or remove content with it. I needed it in a project, so I wrote down how it works.

This is what I imagine people's code looks like when they complain about the forced indentation in #python.

And yes, this code is correct.

Oh nice.

Are there any #duration #formatting #libraries for C++ (#cpp) without overflow? For example, `fmt` can format an `std::chrono::duration`. But it uses regular `strftime` specifiers. So if I have a 90 minute duration and use %M:%S, I'll silently get 30:00 which is wrong. I can do HHMMSS instead, but there's no way to get 90:00. And HHMMSS isn't enough if it's 25 hours.

The strftime syntax is ok, but I need the highest unit to expand instead of overflow. Does everyone just roll their own for this?

@jeffeb3 I knew I saved this somewhere... I'll see if it works.
