In-reply-to » @justamoment I find sometimes I have to open up whatever is guarded by reCaptcha in a barebones Chromium instance. I normally use the Brave browser but I think all the privacy guarding stuff trips up the captcha. I have a lot more luck with captcha solving in stock Chromium.

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club Hmm okay well now I’ll defiantly relook at that code and see what’s up 😆

@justamoment@twtxt.net I think its something to do with @eldersnake@yarn.andrewjvpowell.com not following you ir something, but I’m not 100% sure, I’d have to go look at that section of code again. I could have sworn we “try” to do something a little “smarter” 😅

In-reply-to » @prologic is the Goryon client still in development? I'm using the latest Android apk from your git repo, works fine except it wont open URLs for some reason.

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club Yup it is, but progress is slow. At the moment I can’t build it, so paying someone to help fix it and get it over the line. Goal for this year is to get “Yarn” or “Yarn.social” into the App and Play stores 👌

@justamoment@twtxt.net Yeah I noticed, not sure why to be honest. I’ll have a look later 👌

In-reply-to » I was reminded by a colleague this morning of some some great resources I shared here a while ago on best practices for writing good unit tests in go / golang (really any language that supports good interfaces), and needed to go find them. They are #sqlwsrq and #wu6o3gq

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net This is actually a good reason, I’ve read through some of it already and it seems to be pretty spot on 👌 THank you 🙏

In-reply-to » OK, I decided to take advantage of my blog to write up some thoughts about ChatGPT being listed as a coauthor on scientific papers. Have a look! Another AI Hype Cycle • Anthony Bucci

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci OH yeah no I completely agree. Total nonsense. There are other nonsense things I’d love to chat to you about that’s happening in the world too (she/him/it/they/sheit/something cough) but let’s not get into that right now 🤣

In-reply-to » I just posted this on LinkedIn in response to a survey from a colleague of mine asking whether ChatGPT should be credited as a co-author on papers:

@eaplmx@twtxt.net If I may… I think @abucci@anthony.buc.ci has a what we call a “morale outrage” against ChatGPT and all things hyped up in the AI field. And rightfully so, as I believe this is part of @abucci@anthony.buc.ci field of study/work? 🤔 – I can totally see why to, with AI not even being remotely close to my field, I can understand his point of view and I agree with it.

All the *GPT things and AI (of late) are just super “hyped up”. Too many people are thinking (abd believing) that’s a wonderful magical “silver bullet” that will solve all the world’s problems (wrong). The hype probably exists (mostly?) because there’s going to be a lot of “products” and “services” built on this *GPT (shit) and we’re either going to be a) forced to use it or b) ripped off in some way.

That’s the nature of a capitalist world economy (one which IMO has become quite a hockey stick as we call it, extreme).

@eaplmx@twtxt.net / @abucci@anthony.buc.ci / @bender@twtxt.net I’m afraid I’m not going to do this Twt and justice as I haven’t read the full Yarn (yet), but I just wanted to say off the bat just based on the first 3 Twts in this Yarn:

And we need to have hope of a better world. We as humans, NEED hope. Thats why religions, organizations, volunteers, exist.

I’m sorry but I don’t agree with this statement. “Hope”, whilst a powerful and useful human emotion doesn’t solve anything. We cannot “hope” that the assholes of the world will stop being selfish little (and big?) assholes with power and wealth, or “hope” that Google™, Microsoft™ and even Apple™ will suddenly start giving a shit about user/data privacy and security and stop profiting off data that isn’t theirs to have.

Anyway… Hope is IMO not the answer. If you want to change something, actions speak louder than words.

In-reply-to » @abucci I guess the best is to block each other since our ideas are not compatible and we are not open to change our mind Thanks for the conversation tho

@eaplmx@twtxt.net This is never a solution my friend 😅 Conversations like this one (a level up in the tree) are important ones to have, just because language barriers may sometimes exist, or we may have differing concepts, ideas or opinions doesn’t mean we should stop talking. The important thing to remember is to have empathy, never get upset and so on… .🤞

In-reply-to » spent the day with my family as usual. went for a long hike with the dog so that they could sleep in this morning. we also made some food in our firepit this afternoon, which was really nice since its still cold outside. now the kids are sleeping, dog is sleeping, and me and my other half can chill with the tv on for a while. been a good sunday.

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Sounds like a pleasant end to a weekend 👌 Looking forward to similar outings myself as soon as we’re able 🤞

In-reply-to » Any recommendations on a good intro to webfinger? I'm guessing the Yarn.social support centres around pointing out the administrator account, yes? I've been working on getting websocket support up and running for my vaultwarden instance today, and just noticed some nodeinfo errors in my reverse proxy logs; I'm guessing that's because I used to run a Fediverse instance (Pleroma) back in the day. Do nodeinfo and webfinger normally go hand in hand, or are all the search results about Nextcloud errors swaying my understanding?

No, we’ll likely use this to replace the hacky feed lookup I did a while ago 👌

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk The best resource I’ve found is webfinger.net itself.

In-reply-to » Salty.im Blob Storage v1 - HedgeDoc 👈 Updated this doc a bit more today with @abucci's help 🙏 Kind of need everyone's help though (please) to help with the threat modelling part, and any other feedback comments of course 👌 Still some work to do...

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Hahahahaha 😆 Yup! When we designed the spec we made sure to use existing crypto borrowed from some of the best minds like the guy originally behind keybase who then layer when on to create heys.pub which we use many parts of 👌

In-reply-to » @lyse thank you! I hope the third round was smoothly too. Just got another 5 gallons of paint, will finish it next weekend. I also bought cheaper paint for the old side fence too. Next is to prep an exercise room on the lanai for the kid. Got the epoxy paint today too, to paint the floor. Fun! :-D

@bender@twtxt.net I believe you mean 23 L 😆

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Do we really need to overlap here with the already existing spec? 🤔 – Which we’re going to have to do a v2 on anyway soon™ and maybe we’ll document the threat model(s) like we’re doing here too 👌

In-reply-to » I wonder whether Gio UI would be a good way to build a cross-platform for yarn.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci We actually used GoGio in an alternative mobile app for Salty.im – Unfortuantely the user experience just isn’t quite there with GoGio (yet), there are many aspects of the UI/UX that are just a bit off. For example, you can’t spell check words when entering text, emojis don’t render, etc. Otherwise its actually pretty nice to write your entire mobile app in Go 👌
