Month: January 2018
It’s from 2013, but it is a positive story of workers taking over the factory and turning it into something with positive environmental and social impact. And while I can’t read Italian from what I can understand they are still active, despite some attempts to shut them down. http://rimaflow.it/
In case it helps anyone, here are the steps I needed to take to get geben working in spacemacs in order to debug local web apps (this in Ubuntu 16.04):
- Add geben package to .spacemacs and reload
dotspacemacs-additional-packages '(some-other-package geben)
- Assuming you have xdebug installed, add the following to your php.ini file in /etc/php/7.1/apache2/php.ini
[xdebug] xdebug.remote_enable=On xdebug.remote_host=localhost xdebug.idekey=geben xdebug.remote_autostart=On
- Open the file you’re interested in debugging
- Start geben in spacemacs with M-x geben
- Navigate to localhost/some-app.php in a browser
That should trigger geben. Debugging time!
A bonus note: I didn’t have any luck with geben-find-file when trying to add breakpoints to other files in the project, but using geben-open-file worked (just a little bit more cumbersome.)
We need to figure out (or someone needs to introduce me to..) a good alternative to Facebook Events ASAP. I briefly reactivated my account (because reasons) and stumbled across a public lecture about Thomas Sankara, and an event put on by the Chilean embassy about Project Cybersyn. And it’s an absolute crime that Facebook is the only way to discover these.
Just signed up for Berlin Marathon in September 2018. Really excited. Not so much for the challenge, I’m not a big believer in the whole personal ‘individual’ challenge thing. It’s more I recognise the huge positive link between regular exercise and my mental health, and past evidence shows I need a big looming event to make me get out regularly. (And well plus – Berlin is awesome.)
Hope I can find some training buddies.
Damn, using a VPN messes with syncthing it seems.
git-drink-base, really handy git command, surprised that not a lot of people know about it:
git-drink-base: drink non-staged unstaged bases from any quiltimported non-filter-branched upstream trees

Be careful of the –plunge-history option though
Fascinating sprawling discussion on counter anti-disintermediation, decentralized social media, decentralized infrastructure, politics of coops, mesh networking.

Two thoughts spring to mind:
- Mastodon isn’t great for reading a threaded discussion
- Seems a shame all this great discourse is destined to just eventually slide off a timeline, what’s to be done about that?
