It worked! 🥳

yey! it works! Good night @bender@twtxt.net!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com let me reply before going to sleep. 😂😂😂

@test_dont_fetch@aelaraji.com Let’s raise another from the dead! “Facio, Voco, Ferre” 🧝 🪄 #ForScience

@bender@twtxt.net YAYYYY TY

@bender@twtxt.net It isn’t @aelaraji@aelaraji.com’s fault at all here 😅 I think the only way I can improve this somewhat is by introducing a similar convergence that I believe @movq@www.uninformativ.de built for Jenny which would fetch the mentioned feed temporarily to see if it contains the subject being replied to (in case it’s not in the cache).

I’ll think about doing this too, but I have to do it carefully so as not to cost too much in terms of resources or performance…

@prologic@twtxt.net I don’t understand what’s happening. It often happens with @aelaraji@aelaraji.com Replies are often simply disconnected.

@bender@twtxt.net Nah it’s there but it’s a reply to a thread that isn’t found here hmmm 🤔

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I replied to this twtxt with https://twtxt.net/twt/yqrdx4q, and it created its own, totally unconnected.

I replied to a twtxt from @aelaraji@aelaraji.com, which is now gone(?).

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I don’t think they have ever replied to anyone. Just checked their raw feed.

@bender@twtxt.net Oh I see hmmm 🧐

Related Twt

Andros’ feed is simply the direct link to submissions with at least 600 points. It doesn’t link to Hacker News, thus no comments.

/ME slipping a note under @klaxzy@klaxzy.net’s keyboard.

Note: “You should check https://marginalia-search.com/ I bet you’ll love it.”

@bender@twtxt.net Hah! 😂

@bender@twtxt.net Well… I don’t believe it’s possible to prevent or avoid all system accidents. However, managing system safety and putting in control structures goes a long way 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net is just is! For me, that is.

@bender@twtxt.net How is this dense or boring? 🧐

@prologic@twtxt.net I jested, of course. Way too dense (and/or boring) for my liking. 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net and the aim, and end result, is that by reading and learning from it you will prepare yourself to nearly completely avoid accidents. Am I right? 🙂

@bmallred@staystrong.run yeah! you’re right. Unfortunately, Decaf isn’t a thing where I live 🤷

@bender@twtxt.net Not quite sue I understand your reaction 🤣

These ideas are dr the two books:

• Drift into Failure: From Hunting Broken Components to Understanding Complex Systems by Sidney Dekker (2011)
  
• Engineering a Safer World by Nancy Leveson (2011)
  

The former I haven’t read. The later I haven’t finished reading 😅

Hmm. What can I say? 🧐🥴🫩 OK. 🤭😅😂

@prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de The side effects ARE what got me into drinking coffee in the first place, now it feels like I’m fighting them back for my life 😅

@bender@twtxt.net 🙌

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev HAHA! Easy, we’ll just ask Redream to make a little something for you! I just hope it doesn’t come with a subscription fee for… taking time off of it tho! 😆

And the idea of asynchronous evolutions comes from system accidents where control failures emerge when system structure, constraints, and evolution are poorly managed.

The idea of drift into failure is small normal adaptations erode safety over time without people noticing.

@bender@twtxt.net allow me to try and explain over several Twts…

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz saving you a bookmark:

The following flags no longer exist:

--max-cache-items
--max-cache-ttl

Instead use --max-age-days, which controls how much of the cache is pulled back for Timeline, Discover and Mentions views.

P.S: the couple first Seasons and Her (The movie) are the main reasons I find it a bit difficult to go back to mainstream social media or even care about smartphones 😆

@movq@www.uninformativ.de LMAO! Right!? Things getting too real too quick I don’t even think I want to watch the rest.

@prologic@twtxt.net I don’t understand the diagram, nor have any idea of what’s about. 👌🏻

A visual flow chart diagram that illustrates how two different but very related concepts can lead to system accidents 👌

• asynchronous evolution
  
• drift into failure

@prologic@twtxt.net yayyy bookmarking ty!!!

i can finally talk about it here: i’m doing contract sysadmin work for fujocoded!!!!!!

Here’s an example of what you end up with (I don’t follow the feed, but it’s in my pod’s cache)

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev One thing I really liked about the hacker news rss feeds is the link to the comments. Reckon you can add that to the feed? 🤔

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Yes see UPGRADE.md – I believe @xuu@txt.sour.is is now running this live after a couple of hiccups and a bug fix. So yeah if you can, that would be cool, basically looking for early beta testers (I was the alpha tester 🤣)

love4eva is gradually becoming more functional, with the power of wildcard certs, memcached, and various quality of life improvements! :D

I HATE BRAIN ZAPS

@prologic@twtxt.net i can give it a try MAYBE, i’ve been super busy and all over the place but i will put it on my task list to try to remember! do you have upgrade/migration instructions anywhere that i can follow?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de god same T__T

@mana@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz SHE WAS 16 HERE!!!!! RAPPING IN 3 LANGUAGES LIKE THAT’S INSANE RIGHT

@mana@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i LOVEEEE her 2018 BD event sm

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I hightly doubt that I am wiser than you. :-D

@bender@twtxt.net Ha! It turns out, some cows indeed have magnets in them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_disease

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev Thanks! 🙏 Just re-followed @important_dev_news@n8n.andros.dev 👌

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I love them! Now I want to be emperor of the universe :P

Tem dois anos mas está já bem encaminhada. Noutro dia tínhamos um saco de terra em casa, e ela:

– O que tem aquele saco?
– Terra
– Terra da fraternidade?

Feliz 25 de abril :cravo:

O balatro sai caro

What does “dev” (developer) mean?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org You must be wiser than me then. 😅 This effect only really kicked in with Covid for me. 🥴

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I’ve only seen the first two episodes so far. S7E01 was just barely watchable for me, it’s way too realistic. This is supposed to be fiction, not a documentary! 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net Oh wow. 🤯

I decided to use Imagor to optimise and transform the images into a stream. I am very happy with the results!
It is written in Go and is easy to run in Docker.

#selfhost

@prologic@twtxt.net
I think it is mature enough now: https://isah-twtxt.andros.dev
If anyone is interested in transforming an RSS feed to twtxt using n8n, send me a DM 😜

Also a lot of patience 😅

@bender@twtxt.net Haha 🤣 Steady fingers? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net yeah, they are. Usually, the full season gets published the same day if I’m not mistaken. And, please tell me you won’t be binge watching the whole thing at once!? 😆

@prologic@twtxt.net are you sure you are legally blind, mate? I didn’t try too hard, and only two, or three times, but the best I got was like 72%. 😅

Can’t say I’ve been watching Black Mirror no.

@bender@twtxt.net Bahahahaha 🤣

This is the best I can do!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I will be watching it, but haven’t started it yet. Are all the season’s episodes available now?

Anyone watching/watched Black Mirror Season 7? 😵‍💫😵 I’ve been watching the first episode and a couple of minutes into the third act then I was like … Oh boy, I need a break! They’re just so Fu__ing good, I’ll give them that!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I am surprised our King hasn’t shut it down already. After all, science is woke. /s

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org haha, not satire. It is also in Mark Twain’s “Huckleberry Finn” as well:

“If fifteen cows is browsing on a hillside, how many of them eats with their heads pointed the same direction?”

“The whole fifteen, mum.”

Cool, Hubble turns 35 today! https://science.nasa.gov/missions/hubble/nasa-celebrates-hubbles-35th-year-in-orbit/ Happy birthday little space telescope and thanks for all the lovely photos! :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Aha! See? You got Long (Time Ago) Covid! ;-)

But this also happened to me all the time already before the pandemic. Time just flies and accelerates even more the wiser we get.

@bender@twtxt.net Hahaha, is that a satire site? :-D I haven’t noticed them prefering a north-south direction. They’re typically aligned in the marching direction to step forward to get to new grass. Or they just follow the leader cow.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org mooooo, mooooooooo, moooooooooooo! Those cows are not facing the same direction, they are rebels!

Bloody pandemic has screwed with my perception of time. I thought a certain even happened recently, like 2022 or 2023. But no, it was 2018.

It feels like 2020 to and including 2023 never happened. 🫤

@bender@twtxt.net Mission accomplished. :-)

Hey @sorenpeter@darch.dk, is your neotxt.dk feed permanently dead or will you resurrect it?

@prologic@twtxt.net Maybe they are for you, dunno? 😅 Caffeine makes me stay at the same level of tiredness/exhaustion – except I’m hyped and can’t sleep. 🥴 Sucks, tbh. 😂

About the nuclear power plant on the Moon, they are beating us. There was a time we were ahead, but I understand nothing lasts forever. Now, being a world power for only one hundred and twenty some years, and a super power for around seventy sure is a record (as in short-lived). The Roman Empire lasted over 500 years!

It was fairly gray all day. Just before I went on a stroll, a rain shower paid us a visit. Then, the sun took over. Great timing. It’s crazy how rapidly the greenery grows. No comparison to only two weeks ago.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de But the side effects are Soo good! 🤣

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Oh, been there. I only drink decaf now. It’s great, you can have the taste of a good coffee whenever you like – without the side effects. 😃

@bender@twtxt.net Don’t worry, I can’t replicate that score, either. 😂 Even tried with a graphics tablet, which is – to my surprise – not magically easier. 🥴

You Will Never Be Able To Change A Man. Monique Marvez - YouTube Soo fucking good! 😊 Haha so many laughs!!! 😂

@bender@twtxt.net Oh yes! 👍 That was completely fucked up haha 🤣

Invention no 13 in A minor by J.S. Bach - YouTube Soo amazing! 🤩

@prologic@twtxt.net I believe he is referring to this, on mentions, @abucci@anthony.buc.cidoesnm.p.psf.lt@doesnm.p.psf.lt.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Haha you’ll have to forgive me, this thread is over a week old now and I’m a bit lost now 🤣 even though I can now see the entire thread, what are we saying was messed up and is garbled? 🤔

Whoo! Public holiday tomorrow in Oz 🥳

@bender@twtxt.net Haha 🤣

Sounds like a good plan. When can we expect this; end of the month? :-P

I’m thinking of building a hardened peering protocol for Yarn.social’s yarnd: pods establish cryptographic identities, exchange signed /info and /twt payloads with signature verification, ensuring authenticity, integrity, and spoof-proof identity validation across the distributed network.

@xuu@txt.sour.is or @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Do either of you have time this weekend to test upgrading your pod to the new cacher branch? 🤔 It is recommended you take a full backup of you pod beforehand, just in case. Keen to get this branch merged and to cut a new release finally after >2 years 🤣

Those really are great tits!

compare and take your own conclusions!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oh wow! That would be something I would print, frame, and hang somewhere very visible, with the image in question in it, of course. Soooo hot!

Yesterday, I saw two courting great tits in front of the window. One fed the other a few times. That was super sweet to watch. I’ve never witnessed that myself before.

That reminds me of a workmate telling me the other day that my photo albums are blocked by corporate “»’security’«” trashware, bwahahahaaahaaaaa:

Image

Completely expected from AI bullshit.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org don’t you go planting that seed around here, Mister! 😂

@bender@twtxt.net Great tits always makes for lovely nick names!
