This is a Gist for stuffing my quick notes and thoughts in here, also serving as development tracker for bits.
Now bits has moved to WordPress.
Key points:
-
README.md
isn't very important since it isn't a note, but it may be used for some indexing or linking to other years. -
Each note is a comment, currently group year's notes in one Gist. No need to title each note, too much effort for reference when comment link is enough.
Originally, I thought of using pattern like
YYYYnnn
, year with 3-digit number. But it's really not necessary. Not even me would actually refer to the notes. -
Must have proper formatting capability, like Markdown.
Although these are just notes, but I would prefer formatting them well. Not tweets, nor blog posts.
-
Must be able to scroll down a single page to view multiple rendered notes.
I wished to have each note their own page, but couldn't really find any easy solution to meet my needs, so settling down in Gist comments works best for now.
-
Okay to lose these notes, they may not be worth reading again.
-
Okay not to have proper search function since each note is a comment.
-
Okay not to have separate comment thread for each note.
-
Okay not to have commit history for notes.
Ideas:
-
The first note is a bit long due to the emerge log, it might be a good idea to have another Gist to store those log stuff, like
bits.2013.bits
. -
keyword' bookmark for comment form
Unfortunately, the form doesn't have ID.
After updated glibc and rebooted, libreoffice-bin gives:
I am guessing it's something between glibc 2.15 and 2.16.
2013-12-05T09:44:47Z: turned out to be harfbuzz 0.9.12 -> 0.9.23, saw it as same 23=23, bug report. Asked on IRC to find out I read the version numbers wrong.
2013-12-06T02:29:27Z: it looks like I actually hit a Portage bug, now the summary is changed to: sys-apps/portage: emerge breaks non-world installed packages with updates. By the way, that bug report is my first one for Gentoo, IIRC.
