git-list
git-list is an experimental git sub-command to interact with mailing-list based patch workflows.
Git comes with some tools to collaborate via email: git send-email and git am, one to send a patch directly to the mailing-list, the other to apply a patch which ... somehow... the user get from the mailing-list.
There are plenty of email clients written exactly to work with a mail-based patch workflow, or adapted to the job with configs and plugins. And I'm sure they work perfectly.
However, I'm only an amateur mail-patch user, and I'm not an hardcore consolophile: I prefer to keep using my graphical mail client, which unfortunately doesn't have any cool git integration.
But, one day I found out himalaya, a CLI mail client (not a TUI!). I would say himalaya is to thunderbird as curl is to firefox, in a way.
It allows to easily integrate mails into bash pipelines.
And so git-list is born. Put git-list script into your path, configure himalaya, add some local config to your repo and you will be able to easy list mail from the mailing-list related to the project, read mails, and apply patches to brand-new branches created ad-hoc from the comfort of your terminal:
$ git list
ID | Subject
-----------------
1 | [Patch] ....
$ git list show 1
...
$ git list test 1
$ git status
On branch patch/1
...As always, everything is extremely experimental, and likely will stay this way.
Here is the code:
P.S. have a look at the git send-email tutorial

Dear people who sew: do you have cucirini tre stelle sewing thread where you get your sewing thread? Here (just north of Milan where it is from) it is *the* sewing thread, and it was for my mother and for my grandmother, but I'm wondering whether it's a very local thing or not.
Gente che cuce: da voi c'è il filo per cucire cucirini tre stelle? Qui (un po' più a nord di Milano, da dove arriva) è *il* filo per cucire, e lo era per mia madre e per mia nonna, ma mi sto chiedendo quanto sia una faccenda locale.

So, I've bought some linen thread to handsew a shirt or two, nothing unusual.
And then I've spotted what is the main reason why they sell it today (bobbin lace), and that reminded me that it's something I try to do some time ago, and really wanted to try again, sooner or later.

I thought my grandmother's cotton or linen tatting looked like micro-crochet, and projects are small, fitting in a pocket so well. Strong too. Tatting could hand-reinforce button holes and add small loops to things. I might have a tatting shuttle somewhere. . . en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tatting#… . Grandmother's looked like the metal-hooked one in this pic: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia…
Aaaaand, the instructions for my next #freeSoftWear pattern have been written, and the shirt itself is almost done! (I'm attaching the sleeves, and then I need to finish the hem and making buttonholes).
And then I only need to edit a truckload of step-by-step pictures, and add them to the instructions.
Have I ever mentioned how much I love *having released* the source code for my clothing under a Free License? :D

Was Giordano Bruno Really a “Martyr for Science”?
There are two main historical figures that are often cited as supposed “martyrs for science.” The first is the Neoplatonic philosopher and mathematician Hypatia of Alexandria, who was murdered in March 415 AD by a mob of Christians who supported Cyri…Spencer McDaniel (Tales of Times Forgotten)
Un modello eliocentrico con orbite circolari è comunque un'approssimazione abbastanza grezza del sistema solare, in cui invece le orbite sono ellittiche.
A quanto ne so, il sistema geocentrico con epicicli era già arrivato ad un livello di raffinatezza tale per cui *per i calcoli* poteva fornire risultati più precisi rispetto a quelli ottenuti con un modello eliocentrico a orbite circolari, il che è probabilmente uno dei motivi per cui il sistema geocentrico è sopravvissuto nel tempo.

In other #screenPrint news, today I tried the drawing fluid + screen filler from the kit I've bought, and made this
(pictures of a printing screen, with the word “serigrafia” (italian for screen printing) first in green drawing fluid and then as a stencil surrounded by red screen filler, written using the Stay Puft font.)
yeah, it worked, I'm not sure I'll use this technique a lot, since I'm not painting things free hand, anyway, so I can just use the UV sensitive thing anyway.
However, to make things a bit more interesting, I tried to print using two colours in a gradient:
(pictures of 8 strips of paper with the word “serigrafia” first in two stripes, magenta and black, then in a magenta -> black very irregular gradient and in the last few strips it's mostly black with bits of magenta).
The strips of paper will be glued to a cardboard box where I'm keeping my screen printing supplies (that's why I did them in the first place, beside the experimenting bits)

it worked!
My third attempt to #screenPrint a qr-code was a success! (nothing like correctly inverting the image to allow a phone to recognise the code :D )
(picture of two scraps of fabric, one black, the other one blue, with QR-codes and “get the source” screenprinted in white)
I'm going to keep this screen, because I expect to use it multiple times in the future, to print it on garments and accessories, and/or to make small patches to sew on them, as applicable.
I've also found a good way to keep the screen stable when exposing it to the free UV lamp in the sky :D
(picture of a small cutting board (not really visible) covered in black felt, with a screen, a sheet of tracing paper with a printed design and a sheet of syntetic glass on top, everything kept together with binder clips).

A few updates on #screenPrint progress.
I've tried making a screen with the photoemulsion: even printing the design on tracing paper instead of transparent and using the sun for exposure (instead of a lamp) it worked nicely and printed sharp and precise.
except, I missed the fact that inkscape had not actually inverted all of the design, and thus the QRcode I tried to print was unreadable :(
(picture of a screen for screen printing with green, cured, photoemulsion)
(picture of something that resemble, but isn't, a pair of QRcodes)
At least, I know what went wrong and I can fix it on the next attempt.
I've also found that the kit I've bought doesn't have enough screen cleaning fluid for the number of screens I can do with the available photoemulsion, so I'm waiting a bit until I can get some screens I don't have to reuse (for a few designs that I plan to print multiple times) and more screen cleaning fluid.

I've also received some wood frames and tried to make another screen with curtain fabric and white glue: this was a success.
(picture of a wooden frame with fabric nailed on it and a right to repair logo painted in glue)
(picture of some black jeans fabric with the right to repair logo printed in white in a fuzzy and irregular way)
I've washed the screen from the back and I can confirm that the glue part survived: I think I will check it for holes and retouch it a bit the next time I'll use it, but it shouldn't need a lot.

And then there was this, which isn't experimental or anything.

The way hollywood depicts pre-modern battles follows a perfectly legitimate literary tradition, already seen in the Iliad, of showing two armies getting ready for battle, not having a frigging clue on how war worked centuries earlier and going on with depicting duels between named (and in the case of hollywood unhelmeted) heroes strictly based on the Rules of Cool.
On the other hand, as far as we know Homer didn't have wikipedia.

TIL: The Mondeluz #watercolours from Koh-I-Noor seem to be the same watercolours as the White Night from St. Petersburg ones.
At least, the one random pan I bought (raw umber) has the same number and pigments as the corresponding White Night, it is made “in cooperation with” the producer of the White Night and it has their logo at the bottom of the pan.
I've never tried the White Night ones for a comparison, however.
And it is a full pan, something I couldn't find on the web site before buying.

Today I drove my mother and a neighbor to a fabric shop.
And I bought the bit of cotton canvas suitable to make a couple of bags / backpacks to be screenprinted, exactly as I had planned to do.
And I absolutely have not bought a full dress and a couple of waists. Not even if the goods were really good quality at an exceedingly affordable price.
I did resist buying broadcloth for the skirt that will go with those waists, because black broadcloth is something I'm always going to find, and first I need to make the whole set of underthings for it.

The pad is A3 size, but it is kept together with rings and there is a line of microperforations to remove a sheet from the pad outside the ring area.
And this means that after being cut, each sheet is slightely shorter than A3, and can't be cut in e.g. 8 A6 sheets.

TFW you write something with visudo so that you know that it will work, then you copy it in ansible, run the ansible playbook, and it breaks.
And then you open the file that ansible has written with visudo, save it with no changes, and it works.
And you spend hours trying to understand what happened.
And then it was a missing newline at the end of the file.

Yeah, gutermann is also the main brand available here in supermarkets etc., and their polyester thread is fine (but I try not to use it), but imho their cotton helps giving cotton thread a bad rep.
Grazie a tutti per le risposte.
E sì, gutermann è la marca che si trova anche qui nei supermercati, e il loro filo di poliestere è decente (ma cerco di non usarlo), ma secondo me il loro filo di cotone aiuta a dare cattiva fama al filo di cotone.
