Post about fandom! Or whatever! Whether it's a rave about some obscure series, or an essay dissecting every last reason why some internet-famous author should rethink their career, someone will probably read it at some point! We also just chat about life.

Date: 2022-09-02 03:55 pm (UTC)Has anyone tried using Conventional Commits as a git commit convention? I find it pretty useful to write more professional-looking commits. https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/

Date: 2022-09-02 04:47 pm (UTC)I suppose I see the commit message as the thing that's there for a human reader to make sense of things, not for automated tooling. If there's some automation that depends on reading it, it makes more sense, but I'm not convinced that's ever a good idea, because I'd guess anything automated should be operating on the code, not on the committer's opinions about the code, bc that'll only be used for bureaucratic stuff that devs oughta push back on. But I haven't thought about it much.

Date: 2022-09-02 06:17 pm (UTC)If you want professional-sounding commits, I would just try to get devs to agree on a style guide organized around being maximally communicative to humans. For example, first word of commit is a verb that makes contribution clear (Fixes, Adds, Removes, etc...). But I would try to enforce it with social pressure, not machine systems. Any machine-readable tracking things can be done via tags or at the end of commit messages.

Date: 2022-09-05 08:49 am (UTC)I've never looked deeply into self-hosting email. At an old job, I saw my smartest colleague try to set up a mailserver for personal use as a hobby project, and more or less fail. So I went "aight that's not happening then". :P The soa described in that blogpost is depressing but on a petty level it makes me feel a bit better about not bothering. Not having my own mailserver was one of those things that made me feel like a hack. I'm still getting comfortable with the idea that all these guys who would set this stuff up when they were like 12 had a whoooole bunch of non-obvious support, from friendship groups to money to their curriculum at school.
As for the stuff that's actually important in there... I don't know. Everything feels like that at the moment. Maybe it's time to start investing in IPoAC.
