GM and a happy New Year, Nostriches.

We at nostr:npub1s3ht77dq4zqnya8vjun5jp3p44pr794ru36d0ltxu65chljw8xjqd975wz have reached another milestone, on our way to #Alexandria v 0.1.0 (Gutenberg edition).

We have printed the entire Bible using 30040/30041 notes and made them available for you to peruse, using a pre-release of our Nostr client. The books are broken down by chapter. Breakdowns by verse will be delivered with the beta release. In addition, we have printed "Jane Eyre", so that you get some idea of how quickly a full-length novel can load. We are working on making it faster, with pagination, but this is already surprisingly quick.

You can't yet use the client to upload books (please use the e-book CLI, for that), and it's all a bit buggy and wonky, but we have already implemented a first pass at the Visualization page.

Feel free to view the Asciidoc test data, here: https://next-alexandria.gitcitadel.eu/. You can log in with a browser extension. (We are still working on the site certificate. Please excuse the mess.)

Who's making an app to turn these into audiobooks on podcasting2.0?

That's kind of on the list for the future,though... You'll be able to do that directly on the client sooner than there being a client strictly for that.

Please don't mention fountain. It sucks.

Lol I had to switch to podverse because it became shitty and then they told me to submit a bug so I did, then they told me to update and see if it still happens and didn't give me the right apk, just a disaster

Morons.

I use antennapod. Actual FOSS. Actually works.

What's wrong with podverse?

nostr:npub1wqfzz2p880wq0tumuae9lfwyhs8uz35xd0kr34zrvrwyh3kvrzuskcqsyn will contact you next week. We have to discuss expanding the team, at our next meeting, but we're interested.

Our next meeting is planned for next Saturday. I'll reach out again after that.

In the meantime, nostr:nprofile1qqsdwr2spy2sfwvj6xpcsg40y3w476e6z6uzmyt6edujfnhkrm22emspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxyctwvshsz9nhwden5te0vfjhvmewdehhxarjxyhxxmmd9uknt4yq, do you have experience with C/C++ and CMake?

We're doing some standard JS/TS web app programming, but we also plan to implement DevOps support for C++ projects.

Been a long time since I done anything in C. But no c++ experience. Quick learner tho.

I spent a good chunk of last year learning how C++ and CMake fit together for the sake of our projects. We've got some experienced C and C++ devs who have been very helpful along the way. So we'd be able to get you up to speed pretty quickly.

For context, 5 years ago I rewrote a python functions c under the hood and increased its performance by 25x. So I know how to do stuff, just takes time to get back into things since I've been more focused on devX in aws the past few years.

That's awesome!

I've gotten the rust from switching gears before. This past year I was working on PHP programs for the first time since 2019 and it was annoying at first. But a couple of months of dedicated practice made it a lot better.

It's actually the other way around. His tool does video summaries.

But he uses tools to do read-alouds, yes.
