  • Help creating an East-Asian Tavern
    1 project | /r/DnD | 7 Dec 2023
    I want to create an east-asian inspired tavern. Once I'm done I'll post on this subreddit a polished version (using The Homebrewery). By commenting you are giving me permission to copy your suggestions.
  • The Gazetteer Vol. 1

    I made this one to mimic the Baldur's Mouth newspaper, as seen in BG3, using the Homebrewery - I created a template here.
  • What tools are you missing?
    1 project | /r/rpg | 6 Dec 2023
    Quite a few people seem to think there should be (and are surprised to find there isn't) something that lets them dump in their Google Doc design and have it magically formatted into a pretty PDF for them. Something like Homebrewry, but not D&D-centric, and they probably expect it to be even easier than however you edit stuff on there.

  • The `hanging-punctuation property` in CSS
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 28 Nov 2023
    One example that I contribute to: https://homebrewery.naturalcrit.com

    It is a code mirror app that outputs md styled like dnd books. It’s very much a “round peg in square hole” project, using html/css to create print materials, but for many it is good enough. It is just html and css, and allows customization, and precise styling requires precise css properties.

    As you noted, it does only work well in one browser, Chrome on desktop (even though I think all the devs use FF as their daily driver). But as another commenter noted, the answer is that you design on one machine and share via pdf.

  • Linus Torvalds adds arbitrary tabs to kernel code
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 17 Apr 2024
    These are a bit easier to see what's going on:

    https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/d5cf50dafc9dd5faa1e...

    https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/d5cf50dafc9dd5faa1e61...

    Unfortunately Github doesn't have a way to render symbols for whitespace, but you can tell by selecting the spaces that the previous version had leading tabs. Linus changed it so that the tokens `default` and the number e.g. `12` are also separated by a tab. This is tricky, because the token "default" is seven characters, it will always give this added tab a width of 1 char which makes it always layout the same as if it were a space no matter if you use tab widths of 1, 2, 4, or 8.

    There was also a Gentoo effort to run atop FreeBSD[0]. The challenge of course is that afaik none of the BSD kernel ABIs are considered stable. The stable interface is the BSD libc. That said, with binfmt_misc, I don't see a reason you couldn't just run (at least some) FreeBSD binaries on Linux with a thin syscall translation layer (rather something like qemu-system) and then your layer hooked via binfmt_misc. I'm not aware of anyone who has done this for FreeBSD, but prior efforts existed as alternate binfmts for SysVr4/5 ELF binaries[2]. Either way would take some elbow grease, but you *might* even be able just reuse binfmt_elf and just have a new interpreter for FreeBSD elf.

  • Improvements to static analysis in GCC 14

    > The original less-than check was deemed incorrect

    It was only deemed incorrect because of an information leak. Not because it's a valid use-case for user space to copy smaller portions of *hwrpb into user space. https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/21c5977a836e399fc71...

  • Linus Torvalds accepts a merge commit to the Linux kernel

  • TinyMCE (also) moving from MIT to GPL
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 27 Mar 2024
    Correct. And the combined work needs to carry the MIT license text and copyright attributions for the MIT software authors. With binary distribution it must also be overt, not hidden in some source code drop, but directly accompanying the binary.

    Many people who talk about relicensing never credit the MIT developers or distribute the MIT license text. "Because it's GPL now."

    I don't think that you believe that, but many developers do.

    Some don't see the need for source code scans for Open Source compliance, because the license.txt says GPL, so it's GPL. Prime example is the Linux kernel. There is code under different licenses in there, but people don't even read https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/COPYING till the end ("In addition, other licenses may also apply.") and conclude it's simply GPL 2 and nothing else.

    Also be aware that sublicensing is not the same as relicensing.

    He notoriously hates GNU Emacs, yes.

    So If we would only count code and not comments, it is only 9489 LoC Rust. Which would be about 0.03% and if we take all lines and not only LoC it would be around 0.05%
