- bluehi phaleth
- blueworking on an rcompat article. might offer it to bytenews if dreamreal is interested
- dreamrealDefinitely
- dreamrealno question
- phalethhi
- phalethblue: a C lang related article?
- bluephaleth: no, a JS related article
- phalethok, cool, I'm trying to figure out how to use buildkit as tcp server
- bluedreamreal: where should I send it to you?
- bluesent over discord
- dreamrealYou could always just submit it on the site :D checking
- dreamrealand it'd be BETTER if you submitted it, since that way it's attributed to you and not to me
- dreamrealreading now
- blueyes, but that would require me creating a user
- dreamrealoh no
- * dreamreal sighs
- dreamrealit's just a login, you give it your email, it verifies you own that email, done
- dreamrealauthorship is a big deal: if *I* publish it, I get to preface it with "this was submitted by an anonymous user" because otherwise it's presumptive authority on MY part
- dreamrealand even if I agree with everything it says, it's STILL presumptive
- blueI guess I can submit it anon via the form, is that better for you?
- dreamrealBetter than under my own name, sure. At least it's attributed to *someone else* in that case, and it gives you more control over it, although not as much as if it's your user.
- bluecan you change my username, not sure why it's decided it's terrablue?
- dreamrealYou can change it, but I can, too
- dreamrealwhat do you want it to be
- blueI can only change the display name
- blueblue
- dreamrealit derives it from the email address
- dreamrealokay
- dreamrealI'm going to make notes for the article, then fix the refs
- blueoof, the generate preview thingy is a dumpster fire
- blueok, draft submitted
- blueI can't really see my submitted drafts, but I trust it's there
- dreamrealit's there, yes, I'm working on it
- bluethx
- dreamrealand your username has been updated, as has your display name
- bluenice
- bluehad to login again for that to show, but still nice
- bluethx

- bluecool, great, thx
- bluedreamreal: could you please fix the extra ` in the @rcompat/symbol example?
- blueit breaks code highlighting
- dreamrealyes. And you SHOULD have had the option to edit your own posts, FTR
- dreamrealit's fixed, though
- bluecool, thx
- phalethprimate mentioned, only as a tag, but still
- blueoh yeah, I was trying to avoid too much dogfeeding
- dreamrealphaleth: *I* added that
- bluethe CodeError stuff is particularly legit btw. because a primate user can indepently import and throw a CodeError from @rcompat/error, and primate will still display it properly
- blueindependently*
- blueI'd been struggling with it a lot in the past. particularly in primate modules like @primate/ruby etc., I wanted to throw errors in a way that's standard but also that I don't need to import anything from @primate/core
- bluedreamreal: are you ok with me sharing that article on HN?
- dreamrealof course
- dreamrealandrew actually pointed out a few optimizations last night, applied them on the deployment
