Status Report - Week 28 2025

Real life

After attending my sister in law's birthday part in Clermont-Ferrant, we drove back home for a few days of doing nothing before reuniting with Lyla and starting our "family vacation".

The only remotely interesting thing I did is play a bit with ChatGPT to create a stupid page that quizzes me about country trivia, so that I improve my GeoGuessr level. The code is not too bad, and does the job; you can play with it here.

In terms of reading, I finished the first part of Bill Gates' autobiography: Source Code, and liked it a lot. I like more and more reading about the history of computing, which probably means I'm getting closer to dinosaur status :-)

Polo and I did an uneventful 10km run, that showed me that I really need to get back to training...

Open source

I decided to tackle one of the remaining gaps in aerc for me to be able to do everything I need in it: proper label management.

I'm happy to say that with this patch, aerc supports (un)labelling messages for Proton and GMail \o/ I plan to write a dedicated blog post about my adventures in labels-in-imap-land.

There are still a few papercuts that I plan to address after my vacation.
