Quick News AUR bot attack poisoned 1% (1500) of entire repositories (150,000) in AUR. I am back to firefox browser instead of brave browser which was installed from AUR. TypeScript 7 breaks the Astro language server. TypeScript 7.0 shipped as a ground-up rewrite in Go (10x faster builds, no argument there), but it dropped the programmatic compiler API that tools rely on to embed. Astro, Vue, and Svelte all lean on that API for their language servers, so right now just lost editor support, not a broken build but a broken LSP. Go Report Card is archived. The repo was archived on July 1st and if you were relying on the hosted badge, it’s time to self-host or drop it completely.

Recently, I’ve been working on simplifying the Laverna CLI integration with Anki. What seemed challenging during the planning phase turned out to be elegant in execution. Here’s a summary of the challenges and takeaways. The Original Workflow Three months ago, I built an integration between Laverna CLI and Anki with this workflow: User downloads a custom Cloze note type (note-type.apkg) from the repository and then imports to Anki (one-time setup) User prepares CSV data in the expected format User runs Laverna CLI, which outputs enriched CSV User manually imports the CSV via Anki’s deck import tab Everything looked normal on the surface, but steps 1 and 4 were cumbersome and repetitive. Since Anki doesn’t provide an official SDK or REST API, I needed to find another approach. Step 1 and 4 were also more error prone since it contained my internal app logic. ...

In this post, I announce an overhaul for Laverna CLI and new version which supports the new subcommands such as run and anki. The Recap In this blog post I have introduced Laverna CLI which was a language learning tool designed to swallow Google’s speech API. It was immensely useful but it lacked some features such as Anki integration. The New Anki Integration Starting with v0.1.0, users can use the new anki command to create anki decks with laverna CLI. ...

In this post, I announce my newest tool for language learners. As long as I am learning a new language, I plan to maintain it. What is Laverna? What does it solve? Laverna is a sleek command-line tool that transforms text into spoken audio. All it needs is a config file to read. Whether you’re practicing Thai greetings, perfecting your Japanese pronunciation, or working on English phrases, Laverna can boost your productivity when you want to store individual language audios. ...
