L’autorité et le ridicule
Récemment, Trump et son équipe on usé d’une technique redoutablement efficace pour désamorcer les critiques virulentes de leurs opposants Démocrates : le ridicule. Face aux piques acerbes du représentant Hakeem Jeffries, leader démocrate à la Chambre des représentants qui dénonçait les motifs de la fermeture gouvernementale actuelle comme une pure posture partisane, les trumpistes ont riposté […] ⌘ Read more
10 Representations of Death from Myth, Legend, and Folktale
Death is one of humanity’s oldest mysteries—universal, inevitable, and endlessly interpreted. Across time and culture, people have tried to make sense of what comes next by giving death a name, a face, or even a personality. Sometimes it’s a cloaked skeleton with a scythe, sometimes a beautiful queen ruling a frozen underworld, and sometimes a […]

dm-only.txt feeds. 😂
After reading you, @eapl.me@eapl.me, I’ll tell you my point of view.
In my opinion, a feed does not have to be equivalent to a timeline. A timeline is a representation of the feed adapted to a user. You may not be interested in seeing other people’s threads or DMs. But perhaps they are interested in seeing mentions or DMs directed at them. It is important not to fall into the trap. With that clarification…
I insist, this is my point of view, it is not an absolute truth: I don’t think extensions should be respectful of customers who are no longer maintained.
We cannot have a system that is simple, backwards compatible and extensible all at the same time. We have to give up some of the 3 points. I would not like to give up simplicity because it will then make it harder to maintain the customers who do stay. Therefore, I think it is better to give up backwards compatibility and play with new formulas in the extensions. I don’t think it’s a good idea to make a hash keep so much load: a hashtag, a thread and also a DM.

"Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler."

@prologic@twtxt.net I like the, allegedly, original:
“It can scarcely be denied that the supreme goal of all theory is to make the irreducible basic elements as simple and as few as possible without having to surrender the adequate representation of a single datum of experience.”
Not as simple as the interpretation you used, yet often context is king (or queen).
如何架構優秀的 Go 後端 REST API 服務
REST（Representational State Transfer）是 Web 服務中廣泛使用的一種架構風格，其核心思想是使用 HTTP 協議出色地創建、讀取、更新和刪除（CRUD）資源。作爲一種靜態類型、編譯型語言，Go 在構建高效、可靠的 Web 服務時具有顯著優勢。使用 Go 語言構建 REST API 服務需要我們從多個方面入手，包括項目結構、框架選擇、數據庫操作、路由設計等。以下將 ⌘ Read more

Trying to wrap my head around webfinger..
⤋ Read More
@xuu@txt.sour.is that doesn’t seem to fit the spirit of the spec, at least by my read (I could be wrong obv). The example on Wikipedia’s webfinger page,
{
"subject": "acct:bob@example.com",
"aliases": [
"https://www.example.com/~bob/"
],
"properties": {
"http://example.com/ns/role": "employee"
},
"links": [{
"rel": "http://webfinger.example/rel/profile-page",
"href": "https://www.example.com/~bob/"
},
{
"rel": "http://webfinger.example/rel/businesscard",
"href": "https://www.example.com/~bob/bob.vcf"
}
]
}
and then the comparison with how mastodon uses webfinger,
{
"subject": "acct:Mastodon@mastodon.social",
"aliases": [
"https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon",
"https://mastodon.social/users/Mastodon"
],
"links": [
{
"rel": "http://webfinger.net/rel/profile-page",
"type": "text/html",
"href": "https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon"
},
{
"rel": "self",
"type": "application/activity+json",
"href": "https://mastodon.social/users/Mastodon"
},
{
"rel": "http://ostatus.org/schema/1.0/subscribe",
"template": "https://mastodon.social/authorize_interaction?uri={uri}"
}
]
}
suggests to me you want to leave the subject/acct bit as is (don’t add prefixes) and put extra information you care to include in the links section, where you’re free to define the rel URIs however you see fit. The notion here is that webfinger is offering a mapping from an account name to additional information about that account, so if anything you’d use a "subject": "acct:SALTY ACCOUNT_REPRESENTATION" line in the JSON to achieve what you’re saying if you don’t want to do that via links.

I worked on a project where I dived deep into understanding how modern
color management works, including things like color spaces, ICC profiles

for my future self, and others who may struggle with some of the
concepts as well.

Ignite Realtime Blog: REST API Openfire plugin 1.7.1 released!

seize the means of representation
This, except unironically: https://makefrontendshitagain.party/ ; interfaces ought to be rich & individual representations of the underlying models, unless people are required/forced to use them, in which case all formatting should be able to be stripped automatically.
People become what they can imagine becoming, & access to tools has as much to do with this as representation. If it’s easy to fall into programming accidentally, then it’s easy to imagine yourself programming regularly.
Conspiracy theories are the result of the same legibilitization process described in ‘Seeing Like a State’: it replaces actual mechanism with a simpler one & drops details that don’t fit, for the sake of ease of representation

Hot take: the existence of garden path sentences tells us that: 1) language isn’t so much a representation of meaning as a way of representing constraints for possible intepretation, and 2) we start processing before all the constraints have arrived
