Are there any nice cross-platform ways to trigger a notification from a terminal? I've been using https://pushover.net/ but you need to use a browser and it's noticeably slower than the native options. (Pushover is great for mobile notifications though.)

I'm impressed by how many options I'm offered in Common Lisp (in this case sbcl on Sly) for a simple error like an invalid variable name!

I'm really impressed by the styling options in https://carbon.now.sh for producing images of code. I'm often dissatisfied with my options for displaying code samples in slides, this might be a better option. Line numbers and (light background) syntax highlighting matter.
