Entry titles aren't optional in Atom feeds, how to micro blogs deal with that? Update: it seems by making the title an empty element.

The AI evolution seems scary until you realise most of the applications are summarised as a wrapper around the OpenAI API that does all the work, with the context provided by a prompt prefix. So with half a day's study most programmers can participate. #technology

Ubuntu's minimal installation appears to be the standard installation plus the removal of some packages! That's unexpected as I was trying to save installation time. #ubuntu #technology #linux

Map Eject to Multitasking View
So I use ElementaryOS and in version 7 you are no longer able to map just the Eject key. I like to map this to the Multitasking View (something like the macOS Expose).
The solution is to use the DConf Editor application and search for
show-desktop. ElementaryOS repurposes the show desktop to the multitasking view. Simply set the value to['Eject']Alternatively you can set the left-super key (windows/command) to the Multitasking View. This seems better supported.

Lamb 0.2
I've released Lamb 0.2, my micro blogging app that's powering this site.
What's new?
- Posts! Posts are statuses with a title. The title can be added in the front matter (front matter is parsed as an ini-string). Posts have a slug based on the title when the post was created.
- Individual statuses / posts have opengraph tags for improved sharing fidelity.
- The text editor grows to accommodate the input.

Basic routing using REQUEST_URI
So for nginx it is not straightforward to setup PHP-FPM so that
PATH_INFOis correctly populated. Lamb uses the following/index.php/some/othertype routing, where/some/othershould be thePATH_INFO. Instead I want to make setup for a variety of web-servers straightforward, so I've switched to the more robustREQUEST_URI. This simplifies nginx configuration and Caddy and the PHP built-in web-server are compatible.REQUEST_URIcontains everything after the domain name, including the query string, so that needs to be removed:$request_uri = '/home'; if ( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] !== '/' ) { $request_uri = strtok( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '?' ); }We can see that for a request for the root of the site,
REQUEST_URIreturns/whereasPATH_INFOwould be empty, so the code above takes that into account. We can then deduct a router action as follows:$action = strtok( $request_uri, '/' );Once the
$actionis known, it can be checked against an allowed list of actions:switch ( $action ) { case 'edit': ... break; default: respond_404(); break; -
