@puniko :3

and so we have femstache v0.1.11!

added:
- built-in functions show_int and show_bool, which turn the respective types into strings
- !x, x || y and x && y for bool
- ints, with the operations x + y, x - y, x * y, x / y
- {% for i in range x .. y %}

removed:
- truthiness is not a thing anymore, if statements only allow bool as a condition

codeberg: codeberg.org/lumi/femstache
crates: crates.io/crates/femstache
docs: docs.rs/femstache

if anyone would like to contribute, it'd be cool if someone could add more tests~

more built-in functions would be nice, as well, but do tell me before you start working on any

@SuperDicq i'm skeptical that it's possible, but if it happens, i'll adjust

@SuperDicq it's a free reward to anyone supporting the campaign!

looked at kdeforpeople.com

oh gosh it's getting quite big

thinking about how best to do type unification for structs in femstache

if i have constraints like fresh a; a ~ { x: bool, y: string }; a ~ { x: bool, z: string }, this should unify as a = { x: bool, y: optional string, z: optional string }

but the first constraint already replaces all occurences of a with { x: bool, y: string } and then the unification { x: bool, y: string } ~ { x: bool, z: string } happens, which succeeds but can't really "change" the shape of the struct

thinking of maybe adding a kind of "type shape" thing where { x: int, y: bool } turns into fresh a; member "x" int a, member "y" bool a => a

hmm

@puniko ehehehe:3

femstache 0.1.4 has in-memory template loading and escaping!

@joepie91 also, if you are a foss developer or maintainer, reject genai in all your projects. ban it. go on strike if needed

even if there is a vote saying it's fine, it's not. ethical issues shouldn't be put up for a vote

just close the PRs, just refuse to review them, just reject it

@joepie91 "but what if we can't tell"

this is the real world, there are many bad things you can't tell, you do what you can with the information you have

also, projects should consider banning advocacy of fashtech like genai. ban all positive discussion on them

every device must have a way for the user to look at everything going on, access and modify all data, etc

for security reasons, i am fine with only allowing the user to do this manually, but it shouldn't require consent from an external party, delays, or any hurdles, as it is their device

whatever is running on the device (and software on it) should never have a way to hide things from the user and the user should be able to shim and access the whole environment something is running in

the user must always be in full control. what's running on it must only be able to run on the users terms. no one except the user has any right to anything. the devs of the software running on the device must not have any say on how their software is being run

the user owns the device and personal devices should be considered an extension of their body, so they must have full control

@puniko meow!!!

ha! basemeow works! somehow!

it doesn't handle underflow in the arithmetic encoder yet so it crashes on some inputs, but heh, i am happy it at least works

i really need to clean it up... Frac is such a leaky abstraction right now

you can see how much i struggled from the amount of tests :neocat_3c:

bit twiddling is annoying

it will become incompatible once i change the corpus to include all of fedi's meows

for the next version of basemeow i need a corpus of meows, mrrps and such

so, fedi, give me your best

@dgar this is how it will play out:
