@upbeat summit hype ‼️

upbeat summit

👀

#

Improved the infobox's SP fallbacking

#

It will check if you added a custom SP filename, else if there's a pu glyph, else if there's a pu Epelanto glyph, else if there's a sitelen seli kiwen glyph

#

lmao [[Category:Words with sitelen pona glyphs]] is expanding, it was only at like 164 when i first checked and now it's 219 and probably still growing

upbeat summit
#

…by 1

#

Also i noticed someone tried to add alt text to the infobox image for tonsi, so that is now properly supported

#

Also shows up as the caption text so you can check it on hover, but i assure you the alt attribute is also set

upbeat summit
#

If no one has any objections i can start splitting the uncommon related words into their own articles soonish

#

so the other word articles don't give them undue weight by inclusion

#

we discussed this at some point right

Shoutouts to https://regex101.com i don't think my contributions to the wiki would be feasible without it or similar tools

Microsoft has developed a full-on math solver application

#

and

#

it is on fucking telephones

#

instead of being part of the Calculator application

golden rock
#

i wouldn't know anything about microsoft mobile apps

upbeat summit
#

I have a massive bone to pick with preinstalled calculator apps like why are they all based on one-line calculators and their massive input limitations

#

A calculator with a screen that looks like this

#

should not be infinitely more capable than the calculator provided on my entire hecking computer

golden rock
#

hm

upbeat summit
#

why have we never made progress on this front

golden rock
#

when i need to calculate something simple i use krunner

#

without ever having to open the calculator

#

when i need something that doesn't fit into an inline expression i pull up desmos

upbeat summit
#

that is also true

split grail
#

WolframAlpha my beloved

upbeat summit
#

macOS lets you type expressions into Spotlight and i don't remember for sure but Windows search has to have that too, right

#

but then when it comes to the actual calculator application

#

no expression support?

#

very confusing decision

#

Inputting expressions is for search engines

#

apparently

golden rock
#

oh @upbeat summit idk if your text editor woes are about windows or macos

#

but just in case, kate is available on macos as well

upbeat summit
#

…feels a bit overkill for this sort of use case

dark tree

@upbeat summit rephrase your question

dark tree

you can install microsoft powertoys and press alt-space for a spotlight clone that works much better

it lets you search for .exe files in the downloads folder! unlike start menu search, for some reason!

upbeat summit
#

awa

#

the question is just motivated by the romanization

#

which i assume is language-independent?

#

but is the reason the romanization is that way because of English, or because of a variety of Latin-script languages sharing that characteristic

#

I think the <mark /> should be used for the specific part the example is demonstrating, so for the Modifiers section i would only highlight the. well. modifiers

#

Also the highlighting is a bit funky with the font we're currently using, it helps to add a third parameter which is used to customize the SP and to remove the spaces next to the <mark /> tags there

lethal ether
lethal ether
#

neither

#

most latin script languages dont share that characteristic

#

but its like that because whether its a voiceless/voiced distinction or an aspirated/unaspirated distinction, its still pairs of two plosives where one is perceived as softrr than the other

#

so its like analogous

ChatGPT is a chatbot developed by OpenAI. It's based on a large language model trained on hundreds of gigabytes of data from the internet.

Machine translation of Toki Pona into another language is relatively easy due to its simple grammar. Going in the other direction, however, is exceptionally difficult, as most words need to be turned into ad-hoc definitions instead of a simple dictionary lookup.

To be able to run sed on the entire text of the wiki...

upbeat summit

¿tienes sed?

noble gulch

It could do it on a given article, but to be effective you'd need command line access to the text file representation of an article's source.

I don't know if that's available in miraheze.

wha

There doesn't seem to be an automated wiki editor, but you could conceivably write a script to alter the text. Then you'd copy it out of the browser, process it with the script, and paste it back in.

well there are mass edit extensions but afaik those can only replace content on existing pages, whereas this is creating a list of pages that like. vlookup over to another list

alter what text, this is creating redirects that don't exist yet

Also, the {{Feature}} template should be edited so that it doesn't select articles on any sort of nonstandard topic (articles with nonstandard sections are okay, i had to edit all the templates and make a bunch of categories to handle that) so we don't need to worry about people landing on the main page and being met with some arcane thing no one actually uses

sona pona

The toki pona ASCII syllabary by jan Misali, or sitelen Aki, is a writing system that assigns each phonotactically allowed syllable in Toki Pona to a single ASCII character. It is designed so that many particles and short and common content words become recognizable initials, or become or integrate meaningful symbols.

Toki Pona logo
The Toki Pona logo, symbol, or emblem is the main symbol of Toki Pona, designed by jan Sonja. It is believed to date to 2001, "pretty much from very beginning" of Toki Pona, and to have appeared online by 2002 at the latest. It occurs in many Toki Pona tools, communities, and pieces of merchandise.

en is a particle used to introduce multiple subjects to a single sentence. Despite common misconception from learners, the word en does not mean "and", which is instead implied with the repetition of any particle or preposition.

sona pona

During its development in the early 2000s, Toki Pona had major differences from its current, standard form. Various words and features changed and were added and removed. While a lot of information has been lost, since most of the activity at that time was on the unarchived IRC chatroom, there is still enough publicly accessible information to r...

noble gulch
#

Should the bulk info be in the historical usage article and the section in the en article a stub/pointer?

#

Or the other way around. The historical usage article seems to mostly break irregular syntax out into its own articles, but this is a weird one.

#

Also there's some history of the middle portion that's pretty poorly documented. I'm still trawling through that

#

For a tiny space of time (summer 2002) en was used for "with". Presumably then kan came on the scene and was abandoned in the reform to the modern system.

What's the difference between [[Word order]] and [[Sentence structure]]?

random sableBOT
#
sona pona

Toki Pona's word order is subject–verb–object (SVO).
The verb is introduced with the particle li. The direct object is introduced with e.

The subject is the main character of a sentence. It can be a person or an object or anything really. What's important is that we describe what the subject is or is doing.
The verb (also called the "predicate"...

The sentence structure of Toki Pona sentence is as follows:
