Scoring PD is still back baybee! Ikawah Project has been a staple card in scoring PD for about as long as I can find decks of it. (Here's examples from 2021, 2023, and 2024. I have no idea what was going on in 2022.) The only card that's as much of a staple in these decks as Ikawah Project is Global Food Initiative (which might be relevant to my next card review). This might be bringing back enough old tools for scoring PD to make it a top deck in the Vantage Point meta. I know that I'm certainly gonna be playing it.

Hey y'all. This is gonna be a short one. My post about Arborium ended up doing severals. By this I mean it was briefly the number 1 post on Lobste.rs, which is an invite-only diet orange site. Thankfully, I've only received a small amount of harassment from this. Anyways Netrunner card reviews coming soon.

btw this site does have an rss feed it's at https://ewie.online/feed/feed.xml or https://ewie.online/feed/feed.json my feed page is meant to teach people how to get into rss and i haven't got around to it yet cos it's a hobby site ;-;

It would be an understatement to say that I am mildly interested in syntax highlighting.[^2] While I have yet to write a full-fledged parser myself, my blog's[^9] syntax highlighting plugin is custom-built. Under the hood it uses the Lezer[^1] parsing and highlighting system, which is inspired by the gold standard of syntax highlighting used in all modern code editors except Visual Studio Code: tree-sitter. I think Lezer is a great tool and it's especially great in the use case of syntax highlighting on the web,[^3] but I've still kept my eye out for the chance to use tree-sitter instead.

Last weekend while scrolling through some quieter feeds in my RSS reader, I came across an article which might be the something better I was looking for.

Introducing arborium, a tree-sitter distribution

About two weeks ago I entered a discussion with the docs.rs team about, basically, why we have to look at this: When we could be looking at this: And of course, as always, there are reasons why thi...

Arborium is a high-performance syntax highlighting tool powered by tree-sitter created by Amos Wenger. Amos (also known as fasterthanlime) is a long-time open source developer who I greatly respected. I learned Rust from his Advent of Code article series, and I appreciate his commitment to correctness and speed. I was especially excited to learn about Arborium because it was designed to work on the web using Javascript. I could use this!

damn season 3 of dungeons and daddies was really good. i have issues with it that i'll get into later but damn what a finale (2 months late but still)

To give a way to automate adding a section to a personal website which links to the websites of your friends and allies, and which does so via the medium of 83x11 badges. Ideally you'd have a list of websites in whatever tooling you use to generate your site, and when you push the button it goes off and finds the buttons and downloads them, and then it puts them in a nice little display, each pointing to the canonical url for that site with the proper alt text.

v buckenham The 88x31 button spec

good news! the well-known/button spec already exists, just in a different form. you can find it here: https://codeberg.org/LunarEclipse/well-known-button. i know about this because beeps uses it, and because it's currently (partially) implemented on the 3.0-ish¹ branch of my site.

there is a practical difference between v's spec and the well known spec, which is the well known spec uses json while v's spec uses meta tags. i have no idea if that makes a real difference though, lol.

Another year has come and gone, as they say. In this time of reflection, I'd like to look back at 2025, and note what I did, what I liked, and what I'd like to improve on.

Silly website maintenance stuff

Unfortunately, I spend a lot of time on my website talking about making and maintaining the website. Trust me when I say that I make it look much more difficult to run a website compared to how it actually is. Even still, the website has shown a lot of positive growth this year! Not in the numbers sense, mind you. I don't track analytics. But in the past year, I've shipped Evie On-Line 2.0, which was the huge redesign I did a while back, I've added comments, and I've tried to streamline posting. This has somewhat worked out, and I've had spurts of more semi-active posting on here. Generally, I think that the biggest thing holding me back from shitposting on my own site is this faux air of prestige. I feel like I can't flood people's (RSS) feeds with my own garbage because it drowns out the quality posts and because…

he looks exactly like if you put matpat from 2013 through a snapchat age filter

down bad implies the existence of up good

what the fuck is reverse chastity? what did they mean by this??? (i know what they meant they meant the guy gets laid a lot)
