Before Blang +(still in development and not even publicly released) was the configuration +system for ytfeed, which was weird in some areas. The behavior was mostly due +to side effects. Then Usagi, a similar fantasy computer but with much loftier +goals than Blang which never really came to fruition. When it came to making an +RSS feed reader, after ytfeed.py (which started as a proof of concept out of +boredom using some Python RSS module or something) sort of collapsed from +technical debt (look, I can use buzzwords too) I really wanted to take +ytfeed.sh and expand it to be more UNIXy and KISSy but lost motivation. I had a +couple attempts after that such as "awdri", which has one feed.py file with: + +#!/usr/bin/env python + +config = [ + "feed_dir": "/home/trinity/awdri/Feeds" +] + + But I don't even know what that was gonna be. Eventually I came up with +pigfeed which is a half-decent base for an RSS feed reader, I think.

I looked into the field behind him. I didn't see +any well. + "It's not a <I>real</I> well. It's a wallet number. Put in +a coin and reap good luck for the rest of your life." He handed me the business +card of a preacher in the church across the street behind us. On the back was a +hexadecimal wallet code, 512-bit – a legacy address, scrawled in ballpoint. I +could hardly make out the 1s from 7s or the 4s from 9s. I put it in my shirt +pocket. + "An entire coin? I thought beggars usually wanted a fiver or tenner?" + He stared into me with orange eyes. Tattooed irises, probably to go +with his hair. "It's not my wallet. Wanna miss out?" He waved his arms out. +"Your loss!" +2. + Simon was sitting at his desk filling forms when he saw kamisama from +his upstairs window. She disappeared into the forest across the street. He +quickly ran downstairs into the trees to find her sitting on a stump at a +stream, brushing her hair. + "Where have you been? I haven't heard you in days." Simon started to +retie his right shoe which was too loose. "Are you avoiding me?" + Kamisama spoke quietly. "They're trying to take me away." + Simon finished the bunny ears and double knotted it. "Who?" + "I don't know. But I'm disappearing." + Simon sat on the stump. "Is it me? We knew this might happen eventually." + Kamisama shook her head. "No, we can't part yet. I don't want you +blindly leading yourself. Someone is doing this to you." +-1. + "I don't know what's worth putting a coin in an anonymous wallet, but +whatever it is, I don't need it anyway." I started to walk away. + He yelled behind me. "Fine! You just ignored the best opportunity of +your life!"
