What WIKI do you recommend
MoinMoin [wikipedia link] uses flat files, so does WikidPad as a personal wiki.
- Is there an app to keep track of all the details when writing a story?
-
Good open source Linux based wiki for work organization?
For an individual, I used to use WikidPad and quite like it.
-
Private Wiki Creation
There also are "serverless" wikis, like http://tiddlywiki.com/ (can be run as a standalone desktop app - see in the bottom, or Wiki on a Stick, or WikiPad
- Python 3.12.0 is to remove long-deprecated items

Ask HN: Programming Without a Build System?
Details I didn't include but should have (I wasn't sure I'd have any replies at all... I should have had more faith, sorry)
It's a bit of a ramble, sorry about that.
MSTOICAL[0] is a fork of an old C based Forth variant, it took some help from the HN community[1] to get it to compile in a modern 64 bit environment, for which I am very thankful. However, it uses AutoConf to configure, build, install, etc... and I can't for the life of me figure out how to remove all of that logic. (C isn't my primary language, I'm willing to learn that, but adding AutoConf on top of it was too much)
In order to work on that, I was willing to switch to Linux (Ubuntu)... got everything up and running for the most part, but then I couldn't access WikidPad[2], my local Wiki with my appointments, etc. I missed a doctors appointment because of that, so went back to Windows.
The issue is around wxWindows changing the names of variables in some calls. On Windows, you just download an EXE installer and you're good to go. I couldn't figure it out because the program seems to be unwilling to support newer Python versions. (I could be wrong)
I don't understand why they felt the need to make breaking changes to wxWindows, and the python is a bit too dense for me.
So finally... I'm back in Windows 10, and decided to try to craft together a twitter clone with a bunch of weird ideas that I tossed out at 3:30 am in a twitter thread, and put into a more coherent manifesto.[3]

- Free open source alternatives to Notion?

Online World Organization for Novel
When it comes to organization I would recommend using a wiki tool. The interlinked articles in a wiki is super useful to build a web of information and help you not lose track of important details. Wikidpad is a great free desktop tool.

wikia for writers to work offline
Wikidpad is quite functional. It's not the prettiest but it does its job. I don't know if or how you can implement images. But it's free and maybe worth a try.

Zig, Rust, and Other Languages
There's also Odin[0] too. I tried using them all and Odin was pretty nice. Nim is also good too but a lot more features.
But - I concluded that language matters a lot less compared to APIs. Yes, the language should have enough good features to let the programmers express themselves, but overall well designed APIs matter a lot more than language. For example -tossing most of the C stdlib and following a consistent coding style (similar to one described here -[1]), with using Arenas for memory allocation, I can be just as productive in C.

Odin Programming Language
I highly recommend looking at:
* The Overview: <https://odin-lang.org/docs/overview/>
* examples/demo: <https://github.com/odin-lang/Odin/blob/master/examples/demo/...>
As for the first example: a basic lexing example is probably boring, but it does show some basic ideas of what the language is about. If people want to write better examples or just reorder the current ones, please feel free to make an issue or PR on the website's GitHub page: <https://github.com/odin-lang/odin-lang.org>.

Download Odin and get started today! Includes binding to popular video game libraries
Get it from the website: https://odin-lang.org/ -- Odin includes bindings to popular gamedev libraries & APIs such as Raylib, SDL, DirectX, OpenGL and Vulkan.
- Check this odin file out for a demo of many of the language's features. It comes with the compiler inside the examples folder. I refer to it all the time when I need to figure out how to do something.
