I’m Curtis. This is my first day on the internet, what is a blog? My nephew helped me set this up what is happening take it down from the internet please
You might know me from my comics? Or my mastodon? Or my GitHub? Or my day job?
My interests include:
I don’t hate XML as much as the rest of the world.
one time I was working on a personal text animation library in Godot and I wanted to drive it with text
I needed some way to mark that certain text had different properties, like, some text might move quickly, or slowly, or be bouncy, or have a rainbow effect applied to it
and I was like “I wish there were some way to create a markup language for this”
some kind of markup language that I could extend with my own parts
XML isn’t great as a universal data serialization format, and it’s definitely quite bad as a programming language, but you know, as an extensible markup language it’s got legs
i wonder if the people who designed it knew
(ed: this is a repost of essentially exactly what I wrote the first time I discovered this)
People who elongate the world nice by writing “niceeeeeeee” rather than “niiiiiiiiice” are psychopaths
