How? have many aliases (doesnm@doesnm.cc,doesnm@mills.io,doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt) and array of inboxes?

When did we take a wrong way and abandon Windows95? :(

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt salty.im needs a lot more work 🤞it is however designed to be 1000% decentralized 👌

I think salty.im is simplest than simplex. But attempt to implement this i have problems than salty cli cant decrypt messages from another saltpack realization (and reverse) . Also simplex is more decentralized (like nostr?)

Lol, what a disgrace. And not surprised sadly.

@bender@twtxt.net What don’t you like about all this? 🤔 i’m not entirely sure I know all of the folks behind this to be honest.

What’s that address you set up @xuu@txt.sour.is a redirect!

Seems to work okay for me so far 👌

@thecanine@twtxt.net Very nice! 👍

I am reminded of this when I look at entire forks of vscode just to add a LLM code completion assistant.

Yeah.. it is very similar to salty.im a smp is a relay queue for messages. You can self host one if you choose. They also have something called xftp for data storage and device state transfer. You can also self host one.

@bender@twtxt.net Yes. I think as a fancy autocomplete “tool” it’s not too shabby. Beyond that I’m not convinced it saves you time at all.

Wow! 😮 He seems to be digging himself into a hole there right? 🤣

Over the past few days I’ve been playing around with the latest Chat-GPT, I think the model is called o1-preview. I’ve used it for various tasks from writing documentation, specs, shell scripts, to code (in Go).

The result? Well I can certainly say the model(s) are much better than they used to be, but maybe that isn’t so much the models per se, but the sheer processing power at OpenAI’s data centers? 🤔

But here’s the kicker though… If anyone ever for a moment ever think that these “AI” things are intelligent, or that the marketing and hype is ever remotely close to trying to convince of us this “AGI” (Artificial General Intelligence) or ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence), you are sorely mistaken.

Chat-GPT and basically and any other technology based on Generative-AI (Gen-AI), these pre-trained transformers that use adversarial neural networks and insanely multi-dimensional vector databases to model all sorts of things from human language, programming languages all the way to visual and audible art are (wait for it):

Incredibly stupid! 🤦‍♂️

They are effectively quite useless for anything but:

• Reproducing patterns (albieit badly)
  
• Search and Retrieval (in a way that “seems” to be natural)
  

And that’s about it.

Used as a tool, they’re kind of okay, but I wouldn’t use Chat-GPT or CoPilot. I’d stick with something more like Codeium if you want a bit of a fancier “auto complete”. Otherwise, just forget about the whole thing honestly. It doesn’t even really save you time.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de i’m sorry if I sound too contrarian. I’m not a fan of using an obscure hash as well. The problem is that of future and backward compatibility. If we change to sha256 or another we don’t just need to support sha256. But need to now support both sha256 AND blake2b. Or we devide the community. Users of some clients will still use the old algorithm and get left behind.

Really we should all think hard about how changes will break things and if those breakages are acceptable.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Hmm that is worth trying. It is the same base Firefox I guess 🤔

Maybe i should sleep more? Noticed about mistake in my follow entry for prologic. Already fixed

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ooof 😢

It’s all about the r gage meant ya see 😅

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Yep seems alright! Really fast too. I’m still using my main Firefox in general cos.. well it’s set up so much and it’s hardened, profile running in RAM, all that crazy stuff that got it working the way I want 😂

But keeping a good eye on Zen Browser’s progress.

#frasesbacanas é o tema desta #musiquinta… e eu podia escolher (quase?) qualquer música de Marilyn Manson - o homem é perito em jogos de palavras e múltiplos significados, e letras com humor ou profundidade. Mas visto que foi só na semana passada que saiu o seu último single, “Sacrilegious”, é essa a música que escolho, destacando a frase:

I share I did write up an algorithm for it at some point I think it is lost in a git comment someplace. I’ll put together a pseudo/go code this week.

Super simple:

Making a reply:

1. If yarn has one use that. (Maybe do collision check?)
   
2. Make hash of twt raw no truncation.
   
3. Check local cache for shortest without collision
   
   • in SQL: select len(subject) where head_full_hash like subject || '%'
     

Threading:

1. Get full hash of head twt
   
2. Search for twts
   
   • in SQL: head_full_hash like subject || '%' and created_on > head_timestamp
     

The assumption being replies will be for the most recent head. If replying to an older one it will use a longer hash.

Lol, this is actually a good thing by Apple. Doesn’t kill social apps at all, just prevents some harvesting of your entire address book by abusive apps like WhatsApp.

@bender@twtxt.net Nope not at all. base64 just encodes more bits

Build what makes you happy. Let miserable people build the rest

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I think the proposal should be as simple as this:

• Update the Twt Hash extension.
  
• Increase its truncation from 7 to 12
  

@xuu@txt.sour.is is right about quite a few things, and I’d love it if he wrote up the dynamic hash size proposal, but I’m inclined to just increase the length in the first place mostly because my own client yarnd doesn’t even store the full hashes in the first place 🤦‍♂️ (I thinnk)

@xuu@txt.sour.is Good point.

@xuu@txt.sour.is I guess @movq@www.uninformativ.de ’s point is there isn’t one that is available as standard on OpenBSD? 😅

I mean sure if i want to run it over on my tooth brush why not use something that is accessible everywhere like md5? crc32? It was chosen a long while back and the only benefit in changing now is “i cant find an implementation for x” when the down side is it breaks all existing threads. so…

Did Apple Just Kill Social Apps?

@bender@twtxt.net I’m inclined to agree. @xuu@txt.sour.is needs a bit of convincing maybe? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Curious, is our goal to have readily available tools on every possible system? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net To be fair it really isn’t sha256sum vs. b2sum. Neither is more complicated than the other.

@bender@twtxt.net So it should be possible to install man pages in one’s home directory👌

@bender@twtxt.net Yea but what about non-root?

@bender@twtxt.net Hmmm 🤔 Where do you put man pages outside of the contest of a package manager? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net Not sure. It might be a slight variant. I’ll find out 🙃

@bender@twtxt.net Oh I hope that is true 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de sorry to hear about your personal things going on. 🤗

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I don’t think that matters a great deal. I think you should publish your client anyway because I think the direction that will end up taking will hopefully be one that we collectively agree on. 🤞
