See the README for more context on typo-po.
I drank a strong cup of coffee this morning, and I cannot quiet the activity in
my head. I'm attempting to use READMEs in my //website/sandbox to track ideas
that I would typically track using my phone's notes application. Creating a
README forces me to write more than I may have written in my phone's
notes. Also, since this repository is available at https://git.wpcarro.dev, I
can share these ideas with friends by sending them a URL! So much for "stealth
mode"... Well I guess this stress-tests my theory that ideas are less important
than execution.
The install-multi-user script uses blue, green, and red colors, as
well as bold and underline, to add helpful formatting that helps
structure its rather voluminous output.
Unfortunately, the terminal escape sequences it uses are not quite
well-formed. The relevant information is all there, just obscured
by some extra noise, a leading parameter `38`. Empirically, the
result is:
* On macOS, in both Terminal.app and iTerm2, the spurious `38` is
ignored, the rest of the escape sequence is applied, and the colors
show up as intended.
* On Linux, in at least gnome-terminal and xterm, the spurious `38`
and the next parameter after it are ignored, and what's left is
applied. So in the sequence `38;4;32`, the 4 (underline) is
ignored but the 32 (green) takes effect; in a more typical sequence
like `38;34`, the 34 (blue) is ignored and nothing happens.
These codes are all unchanged since this script's origins as a
Darwin-only script -- so the fact that they work fine in common macOS
terminals goes some way to explain how the bug arose.
Happily, we can make the colors work as intended by just deleting the
extra `38;`. Tested in all four terminals mentioned above; the new
codes work correctly on all of them, and on the two macOS terminals
they work exactly the same as before.

In a bit more technical detail -- perhaps more than anyone, me
included, ever wanted to know, but now that I've gone and learned it
I'll write it down anyway :) -- here's what's happening in these codes:
An ECMA-48 "control sequence" begins with `\033[` aka "CSI", contains
any number of parameters as semicolon-separated decimal numbers (plus
sometimes other wrinkles), and ends with a byte from 0x40..0x7e. In
our case, with `m` aka "SGR", "Select Graphic Rendition".
An SGR control sequence `\033[...m` sets colors, fonts, text styles,
etc. In particular a parameter `31` means red, `32` green, `34` blue,
`4` underline, and `0` means reset to normal. Those are all we use.
There is also a `38`. This is used for setting colors too... but it
needs arguments. `38;5;nn` is color nn from a 256-color palette, and
`38;2;rr;gg;bb` has the given RGB values.
There is no meaning defined for `38;1` or `38;34` etc. On seeing a
parameter `38` followed by an unrecognized argument for it, apparently
some implementations (as seen on macOS) discard only the `38` and
others (as seen on Linux) discard the argument too before resuming.

The ssh client is lazily started by the first worker thread, that
requires a ssh connection. To avoid the ssh client to be killed, when
the worker process is stopped, do not set PR_SET_PDEATHSIG.

If the `throw` is reached, this means that execvp into `ssh` wasn’t
successful. We can hint at a usual problem, which is a missing `ssh`
executable.
Test with:
```
env PATH= ./result/bin/nix-copy-closure --builders '' unusedhost
```
and the bash version with
```
env PATH= ./result/bin/nix-copy-closure --builders '' localhost
```

Includes the expression of the condition in the assertion message if
the assertion failed, making assertions much easier to debug. eg.
error: assertion (withPython -> (python2Packages != null)) failed at pkgs/tools/security/nmap/default.nix:11:1

When encountering an unsupported protocol, there's no need to retry.
Chances are, it won't suddenly be supported between retry attempts;
error instead. Otherwise, you see something like the following:
$ nix-env -i -f git://git@github.com/foo/bar
warning: unable to download 'git://git@github.com/foo/bar': Unsupported protocol (1); retrying in 335 ms
warning: unable to download 'git://git@github.com/foo/bar': Unsupported protocol (1); retrying in 604 ms
warning: unable to download 'git://git@github.com/foo/bar': Unsupported protocol (1); retrying in 1340 ms
warning: unable to download 'git://git@github.com/foo/bar': Unsupported protocol (1); retrying in 2685 ms
With this change, you now see:
$ nix-env -i -f git://git@github.com/foo/bar
error: unable to download 'git://git@github.com/foo/bar': Unsupported protocol (1)

After binary searching through my git history to restore my keyboard
functionality, I discovered the issue: I deleted the "Terminal" workspace, but I
did not remove the call to `(exwm/switch "Terminal")`, which silently prevented
EXWM from initializing.
I wish errors like this were noisier.
I created a google-stuff.el module months ago, but I have not needed to
use it much. Removing the google-stuff.el module and all of my
dependencies on it.
This value defaults to localhost:3000, which works, but then Gitea
renders "http://localhost:3000/wpcarro/briefcase" as the URL to clone my
briefcase repository.
In //website, I have the following directories about habits:
- days-of-week-habits
- habitgarden
- habits
Without READMEs in each of these directories, visitors (and myself) can
easily get confused.
When I started working on //clojure, which I also deleted, I wanted to
learn more about how to package Java projects using Nix. This was a part
of that study.
As I mentioned in the previous commit, I now use vterm.el as my primary
terminal. I wrote most of this Elisp when I first started using Emacs. I
know longer need it.
Before I switched to vterm.el, I used alacritty as my primary terminal.
I could not install alacritty on gLinux, so I switched to terminator.
When I was ricing my machine, I wanted my Emacs theme to change my
terminator theme. I never finished that project, and it is quite dusty
now.
I create //deploy when I first deployed a few applications that I
packaged with Nix. This was before I setup socrates as my "cloud". Now I
deploy all of my services using NixOS. The name "deploy" is a bit stale.
I'm renaming it //nix_gcr because it documents how I can deploy
Nix-packaged projects on Google Cloud Run.
In Nix, rec mean "recursive" and for attribute sets, this allows
attributes to refer to other attributes in the same attribute set. This
is useful, but I'm not using it here, so I'm removing it.
Gitea's announcement notes explain some of the benefits of Gitea over
Gogs:
https://blog.gitea.io/2016/12/welcome-to-gitea/
Also, I never configured Gogs such that I could use it, so the cost of
switching from Gogs to Gitea was basically zero.
