Beginnings of a rudimentary notebook interface for simple calculations.
Two kinds of lines:
- Prose lines are just text, except `[value|name]` renders vertically over two lines as a "named blank" with the name under the underline.
- Code lines are indented (though it's very subtle to see here except for the fractions). Still to do: run them to fill in the blanks.

The text has two kinds of lines: unindented lines containing brackets of the form [name|value], which causes value to be rendered in a lighter shade vertically centered under name, separated by a line.
Indented lines contain fractions of the form (numerator/denominator), nested to any depth, which causes the numerator to be centered vertically above the denominator, and the '/' to be rendered as a horizontal line separating the two.](https://assets.merveilles.town/media_attachments/files/113/159/404/550/714/206/original/ed8f51cbbc54609d.png "Screenshot of a text editor with mostly black text over a white background.

really happy with my little calendar program on Plan 9, looks so charming! :D
still haven't figured out how to add my ssh keys correctly so can't upload to a remote just yet, if you know how that works please help me out!
You know, every time I think about how horrendously inefficient larger companies are and how, despite comparatively nobody doing fucking anything, they still make profit while small companies' employees work their ass off and get nothing, I just
Anger isn't really the right way to describe how I feel about that.
Bafflement? A state of overwhelming confusion and injustice?
"Capitalism leads to the most efficient allocation of resources" lmao
Just lol forever that people actually believe this
viz #degrowth after old computer challenge ended I had snuck my cpu performance back up but now #openbsd #notOpenrc
$ rcctl enable apmd
$ rcctl start apmd
$ rcctl set apmd flags -L
$ sysctl hw.setperf
hw.setperf=0
again <3
i will remove all punitive aspects to the next version of `uwu`, my series of lisp tamagotchi virtual pets
you will just accrue a high score, and it will have no easy upper limit.
the first step would be just start writing mini games. was thinking i could make it modular, so that loading a minigame would take just loading an AST.
my main problem with version 3 was the little monitor-esque neglect handling routine. it was waaaay too over-engineered. really i just should have made neglect a simple integer, instead of a system of flags... lmao...
anyway when you have worked on a project for a long time you kinda get confused and frustrated and mentally blocked. i think this new approach leads to more joy/excitement.
cursed? 🤔🤔🤔

could be something like hypertext, would be nice to have backwards as well as forward links...
