In-reply-to » 4 week vacation time is done tomorrow, then it's back to work. A bit excited to see what happens there for the rest of the year, a bit stressfull too, but It'll be nice to get back to work. This summer vacation has been super nice, and also felt like it lasted long. Been a super time with my family, we got to visit a lot of cool places, and went on a lot of trips etc. Been really nice. And we've already planned what to do next year - so I already look forward to that :)

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Ahh nice! i only get 4 weeks off a year 🙄

In-reply-to » @movq The success of large neural nets. People love to criticize today's LLMs and image models, but if you compare them to what we had before, the progress is astonishing.

LLMs though, whilst good at understating the “model” (or shape) of things (not just natural language), are generally still stochastic parrots.

@falsifian@www.falsifian.org It’s also astonishing how much power these things use and how incredibly inefficient they are 🤣

But seriously though we have come a long way in some machine learning sxiwnde and twxh and we’ve managed to build ever more powerful and power hungry massively parallel matrix computational hardware 😅

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Very nice! 👌 I’ve enjoyed your photos and stories of your trips!

Do you normally take 4-week long vacations all in one go?

In-reply-to » part 2, James your twtxt is way too short.... say 2 tonnes of wheat, costing me say 15,000 thats 7,500 for a tonne or $7.5 for a Kg of wheat. That is about 12 times for expensive than wheat is today, ans this assumes the cow manure has any minerals in it, which I know from experience doesn't. So I would have to add NPK, Ca and Mg along with B, Mn, Co, Zn and Cu, all adding thousands to the overall cost.

Anyone recommend a domain registrar, that’s only a domain registrar and nothing else? I’m not interesting in Email Hosting, Web Hosting, Parking, or whatever other silly nonsense. Just domain registration, delegation and renewal.

In-reply-to » Found out today, that the registrar that I use Only Domains's AU front door is DOWN. That is https://onlydomains.com.au

At this point I’m thinking of migrating away from OnlyDomains and choosing a different registrar. If OnlyDomains can’t even do something as simple as maintain their own fucking domain name, how am I supposed to trust them as a service/registrar of my domains?! 🤔 – Not only that, but recently they’ve put all their domain prices up too on a bunch of TLD(s).

@bender@twtxt.net That ain’t the half of it. The worst part is, they (support) don’t give a crap, seem to be poorly trained in “incident management” and you can’t even tell anyone at the company about this (that cares) 🤦‍♂️

Not only that, but how embarrassing is it for a domain registrar to not be able to get domain management right? Support tell me things like:

We only have onlydomains.com we don’t use onlydomains.com.au

To which I reply:

No, you are wrong. I’ve been a very long-term customer and your portal has always been available on both domains. You don’t know your own company’s history.

@mckinley@twtxt.net oh I see! Yeah, health checks looks like something I wouldn’t have any need to run myself or use because most of my background jobs or tasks run in my swarm cluster anyway and I don’t really have that many background or cron type jobs in the first place.

In-reply-to » So, the client now has a lot of features. I will work on fixing the @ mentions tomorow, making it like this: @username in bold. Will also see if I can fix so that users already mention in a post you click 'reply' on is also put into the status text field. When these things are sorted the flutter version has the same features as the GTK4 client. I'm quite pleased with the result of the conversion to flutter so far. Finally got motivated to work with it, which feels good.

In-reply-to » @prologic Ah yes, the other Go reverse proxy. Caddy seems simpler to me, more like Nginx with better defaults and a built-in ACME client. Traefik seems to have way more bells and whistles for all kinds of crazy setups when I only need to map domain names to containername:port pairs.

@mckinley@twtxt.net That’s actually all I used it for myself 👌 All those other “bells ‘n whistles” are really just Traefik supporting lots of alternate setups and drivers for discovery, etc.

If we had a custom feed generator that hooks directly into the YouTube API, I'll bet we could find that information and put "[Scheduled][Scheduled=][Scheduled][Scheduled=][Scheduled][Scheduled=][Scheduled][Scheduled=]" in the title for premieres and remove it when the video is available.

And I have no fucking clue how this happened. I can’t imagine anything in the yarnd codebase would be responsible for this weirdness 🤣

In-reply-to » @prologic I thought you were one of the people telling me how great it was. It is a Go project, after all. What do you usually use?

In-reply-to » Definitely something going on here. Cloudflare is my main suspect.

I can’t explain this. I’m leaning towards a peering pod being responsible for producing a different hash, and twtxt.net pulling that in from a peer. But that would only happen if my pod doesn’t have the Root Twt ans asked its peers for it. And that implies other pods are producing incorrect/different hashes “somehow”. So all of that seems highly unlikely tbh.

In fact I cannot produce eitehr of these hashes:

Yeah, this looks like a hash collision to me right? Same twt, same timestamp, same twter, produces two different hashes? I’m not even sure how da fuq this is even possible?
