Today's a new day; I'm happy to be here. 💙

i have too many😬

[Lilith @imjustlilith]

I'm still here.

I'm not sure what to do with #ASofterSpace ; I think a draw would be data export, so I'm wrenching on that.

Hopefully we can figure out a format/package which makes it easy to reread saved chats.

Which reminds me — the UI needs adjusting in a few spots, too @_@

[Lilith @imjustlilith]

Hey we got an answer! Thank you ^^

[Atlassian Confluence @Confluence]

@imjustlilith Hey! Internally, we pronounce it 'see-cue-elle' to distinguish it from SQL (pronounced 'see-quel').

[Lilith @imjustlilith]

Question: how do you pronounce CQL?

Is it `see-quel`, or `see-cue-elle`?

context: CQL is a query language developed at @Confluence; it's used when querying against their APIs.

Honestly feels a bit like drinking from a firehouse, but I'm pretty excited ^^

I thanked the responder and I'm looking forward to sending them an update, and like

Because it was public, everyone in that channel hopefully learned something neat :)

[Lilith @imjustlilith]

ugh I love learning in public

In my Discord server, I made a post describing syntax for an esolang I want to build one day

I received a response that mentioned EBNF and antlr4 and how it's useful for checking parsing rules and I was like oh snap I didn't know this was a thing

[Lilith @imjustlilith]

So if I have time sometime this week I'll try to formally describe the grammar and transpile source in this esolang to Typescript, to see where I need to tweak things to make it practical3

[Lilith @imjustlilith]

I'll set up a repo with documentation on our lesson plans, as a record of where we started and what we build together. It'll also serve as a sort of living lesson plan for anyone else who wants to learn from scratch ^^

[Lilith @imjustlilith]

My gf has an interest in programming, so lately we've been working together to structure a learning program that's tailored to teach from scratch. Like, reasoning from first principles, software/hardware basics, data structures, etc.

[Lilith @imjustlilith]

With her permission, I'll tweet about what we study and the progress she makes. I'm also gonna encourage her to set up a GitHub account and join some programming Discord servers, espesh if she falls in love with the craft.
