If you're using #lazyblorg as your static website generator: I've updated the project today.
It now used "uv" for dependency management, script invocation and unit test execution. Furthermore, I adapted the code to match the #pandoc version of Debian 13 Trixie.
Although you need to adapt a few things (mainly path settings in a shell script), this update should actually improve and simplify things for you as well.

Hot take: #podcasts should be listened to at 1Γ speed.
Iβve often listened to podcasts at higher speeds, but lately, Iβve felt that listening to them at 1Γ is best, because it allows me to experience the program at the pace that the host intends.
Of course, some podcasts that contain audio or music content should always be played at 1Γ. But even spoken podcasts sound best at their default speed, because the banter feels more natural, more human.
Look, if your intention is to cram as much information in as possible, go for it and listen at 2Γ (or higher) speeds. But my intention is also to experience a curated product. Just like I wouldnβt play a movie at 2Γ, I donβt think Iβll play podcasts at anything but 1Γ speed any more.
And if that means I get to listen to fewer podcasts, well, so be it. I donβt have to hear them all.
Iβm team 1Γ and Smart Speed on in Overcast. Keeps the speech sounding natural but trims just a bit of silence here and there.
I do keep it off for shows that are scripted and βproducedβ rather than just a natural conversation. And Finnish-language podcasts, where it sometimes snips the essential silent parts in the middle of words, which sounds a bit unhinged.
I generally listen at 1x, but sometimes go faster for some podcasts. Some pods are slow paced for no real reason.
Slow pacing for dense content or aesthetic purposes: totally cool. 1x.
Slow pacing because the pod is poorly edited or the host is just a slow speaker: getting sped up.
That's right. I have 10 left.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Sunday. Guess who's been awake since 2 AM? Not happy! I shall probably be grumpy today, best avoided. I can't even blame the gales we had as they finally packed up and left just before bedtime, luckily. Oh well!
Have a great Sunday, whatever you are getting up to. Finish your Christmas shopping and take it easy for the rest of the year. Have fun, have laughs, stay safe.

in reply to Karl Voit • • •By the way, I'm about to interview / just watch KMP's live video presentation of his his-ANSI-CL-condition-system for python implementation. Honestly, I *will* read your lazyblorg after but as a heavy python user [] do you use the error system or have a thought viz introducing lisp style handling? Over here I guess -> gamerplus.org/@screwlisp/11571β¦

I'm sorry to disappoint you: I'm a poor programmer with almost non experience who just needs to hack together stuff in order to implement the workflows and ideas I've got.
I'm one of those cases that are very happy to be supported by LLM services so that I just need to be a reasonable producer of prompts and then join the tedious LLM debugging dialog until it's actually working somehow.
