[tantek][capjamesg] [dshanske] This is me turning on the bat signal! I was prepping for tomorrow morning’s movie club event and realized I forgot to get set up as a host, or forgot how to do that. I think somebody needs to DM me a one-time pw from 1password?

Would anyone want a semi-regular creative coding meet-up for indieweb? I could host a "making visuals with processing" meet-up every-other week or once a month.

I'd enjoy that if the time were suitable.
#
[tantek]
I'd be down to check it out!

Next one needs a scheduled intermission where you show the "Let's go to the lobby" animation
#
gRegor
That was a lot of fun, thanks [Al_Abut]++

lol gRegor
#
[tantek]
or next time delegate hosting for a few minutes while you go to the bathroom. there's no rule that says you as the host has to personally be on the Zoom continuously
#
gRegor
Indeed

[Al_Abut] movie eventing! Lots of fun!
#
[artlung]
Good talk, good ideas
#
gRegor
ooh, parody idea if anyone wants to run with it: let's all go to the blog-y

Meant to plusplus [Al_Abut] ++
#
[tantek]
for some reason the trailing ++ after Slack names doesn't work 🤔
#
[tantek]
[Al_Abut] ++

[Sophia_wood] strong endorsement from me for a creative coding event
#
girlonthemoon
creative coding event sounds fun! not sure if i'd be able to make it, but depending on how it's scheduled, i'll try!
#
gRegor
It's adding a space before the plus plus
#
gRegor
nick autocomplete probably adds it, so if you hit backspace before typing the plus plus should work
#
[tantek]
gRegor, sorta. the space before the ++ is OK if karma-subject is the *first* thing in the line. The space before ++ only fails when the karma-subject is the last thing in the line. And yes, Slack alias autocomplete adds it, and if you try to delete that space, when you type the ++ Slack adds it back!

test ++ test2

#
[tantek]
right so this doesn't work: test2 ++
#
gRegor
regex is hard :)
