Correction: The webfinger thing doesn’t point out where the webmention endoint is. and I should add in a # webmention = https://... to my twtxt file. My bad!

@prologic@twtxt.net sure! I don’t know if this is what you need but, let me give it a try.

  • I have Timeline installed, which has an endpoint to process #webmentions. Mine for example is https://aelaraji.com/timeline/webmention which you can find by querying https://aelaraji.com/.well-known/webfinger.
  • If you mention someone from #Timeline itself, it takes care of querying that and sending in the mention for you.
  • Otherwise (what I personally do) you could just:
curl -i -d 'source=https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt#:~:text=2024-12-09T01:22:37Z' -d 'target=https://aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt' https://aelaraji.com/timeline/webmention

basically what @sorenpeter@darch.dk mentioned in his article Here.

Afterwards, the mentions are stored in their own mentions.txt feed. The one from the example above looks like this on my Timeline :

Feel free to spam my endpoint if you’d like to give things a try. 👍

[P.S: personally, I don’t seem to get the mentions if I add the Text fragment part to my target]

In-reply-to » Finally, the message rendering in my tt Go rewrite produces some colors. There is definitely a lot more tweaking necessary. But this is a first step in the right direction.

Thank you @bender@twtxt.net and @movq@www.uninformativ.de!

I partially fixed the code block rendering. With some terrible hacks, though. :-( I see that empty lines in code block still need some more work. There are also some other cases around line continuation where the result looks ugly. I have to refactor some parts to make this go more smoothly and do this properly. No way around that.

Turns out, my current message text parser does not even parse plain links. That’s next on the agenda.

Oh, I also noticed that this thing crashes when there is not enough space to actually draw stuff. No shortage of work. Anyway, time is up, good night. :-)

Google Drive? Can he give direct link? Idk about he but twtxt feed can he hosted in s3!

So, AI cheaters have ruined the global Advent of Code leaderboard:

https://old.reddit.com/r/adventofcode/comments/1h9cub8/discussion_on_llm_cheaters/

And they don’t even try to hide it anymore.

At this point, any kind of speed contest or ranking has become meaningless. Seeing this kind of behavior is sad and probably unavoidable, because there will always be a few who spoil things for everyone.

The only way going forward, I can think of, is to remove the global ranking and just have private leaderboards. Basically what these two people have said:

Cheaters won’t get public attention anymore. AoC won’t be “officially” ruined by cheaters anymore. If you want to do a speed contest, you can still do that in private leaderboards.

(Honestly, I’d prefer it if AoC didn’t have any kind of ranking anyway. I’m not really fast enough to compete, but it’s always at the back of my head. And last year I made rank 116 once, so it’s not completely impossible. All this creates a lot of pressure that I have to fight and try to ignore. 🤣)

Was just catching up on all the LinkedIN garbage that is well umm garbage 🗑️ One was from a candidate I interviewed, so I had to reply to that 😅 – Anyway…. Saw this random post in my “notifications”:

How do land that job with a Unicorn

First off, you’ll have to define what da fuq a “Unicorn” is! 🤣 My understanding a Unicorn is a mythical creature with a horn on its head and wings 🪽 🤦‍♂️

My brain keeps shortening this to “a socialist network …” and then jumps to “uhh, large parts of the US won’t like this” … 🤦🤪

In-reply-to » Problem 2: Your SSD-backed database has a usage-pattern that rewards you with a 80% page-cache hit-rate (i.e. 80% of disk reads are served directly out of memory instead of going to the SSD). The median is 50 distinct disk pages for a query to gather its query results (e.g. InnoDB pages in MySQL). What is the expected average query time from your database?

@bender@twtxt.net I reviewed my solution and it’s pretty much spot on! 🤣 the order of magnitude performance is anywhere between 1-10ms

You can call it whatever you want, that’s the beauty of it. There is no need to set a “standard” for this. To prove it, I will setup one feed, and name the file “sørenpeter.txt”. 🤭

Less than 30 minutes for Path of Exile II, and the queue of players waiting for the servers to open the gates is now at 22,525. More than 1 million have purchased the early access to the game. It is going to be a rough ride!
