cjbassi | Hey, It's Matrix only, I'm not familiar with how you would set it up with IRC | 03:53:35 |
@seirdy:matrix.org | that's cool | 03:53:55 |
@seirdy:matrix.org | just asking | 03:54:00 |
@seirdy:matrix.org | ytop seems really similar to [bottom](https://github.com/clementtsang/bottom) | 03:54:46 |
cjbassi | Yeah I saw that, I actually messaged him to see if he wanted to join ytop but he said he was too invested in bottom at this point :) | 03:56:44 |
| @seirdy:matrix.org changed their display name from seirdy to Seirdy. | 04:29:44 |

iamo | hi | 20:41:14 |
iamo | i seem to be missing a font, but i can't figure out what it is | 20:41:29 |
iamo | i get thick verticle blocks instead of the dot plots | 20:41:49 |
iamo | does anyone know what font i could be missing? | 20:41:55 |
cjbassi | Hey, check out this issue https://github.com/cjbassi/gotop/issues/18. A lot of people were having this problem in gotop | 20:49:15 |
iamo | oh, it's symbola or ttf-braille | 20:53:43 |
iamo | ty ^-^ | 20:53:45 |
iamo | i guess the author of symbola took down the font until sometime march. not sure what's going on, maybe licensing changes or something | 21:10:30 |
iamo | thought i'd mention that just incase because i had some trouble getting the font on manjaro | 21:10:49 |

@tarkah:matrix.org | hey, cjbassi . Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for your work on gotop / ytop! I've been using gotop for a long time and started using Rust about a year ago, so I very much enjoyed reading through the source. You've make the program seem so simple, I really enjoy your style. I'm pretty motivated to tackle a TUI project now! | 00:11:59 |
cjbassi | tarkah: Hey thanks for the kind words, that made my day! I try to put a lot of effort into keeping the code clean and simple, so I appreciate that. Good luck with any TUI programs you make in the future! | 05:36:35 |

@tarkah:matrix.org | I pretty much have my program ready! It's a simple program for adding stock tickers to track live / historical stock prices. I'm waiting on the owner of the free API I'm using to publish an endpoint to get intraday prices and then everything should be done. | 19:26:43 |
@tarkah:matrix.org | https://github.com/tarkah/tbd | 19:27:10 |
@tarkah:matrix.org | still need to decide on a name :P | 19:27:31 |
@tarkah:matrix.org | biggest difference for me is I'm using async tasks for the API work. Check out my "tasks" and "services" modules. I'm pretty happy with where I landed on it | 19:28:22 |
@tarkah:matrix.org | thanks for the inspiration! I tried to not copy too much from you :P | 19:36:46 |
cjbassi | Wow nice, that looks great. The async stuff is especially cool, been wanting to get into some rust networking stuff myself. | 19:41:22 |
cjbassi | Naming is the hardest part so gl with that :) | 19:41:48 |
cjbassi | How long did that take you? | 19:44:00 |
@tarkah:matrix.org | Thanks! My previous projects with async have been purely async so it was fun trying to figure out how to handle the async work elegantly | 19:44:23 |
@tarkah:matrix.org | I started working on the API about when I commented last week after seeing ytop. I pretty much knew I wanted to do something w/ stock prices. And I started the main app on Monday. I've been sinking a good few hours into it each day this week while I procrastinate at my job :P | 19:46:39 |
