@bender @twtxt.net I noticed that although the Discover view ( and your own Timeline) is much improved with a MaxAgeDays configuration at the pod level, that now some profiles are rather empty. This is only because well, they’re a bit “inactive” so to speak 🗣️ Not sure what to do about this at the moment… Open to ideas? 💡 ⌘ Read more

Trump’s War on Measurement Means Losing Data on Drug Use, Maternal Mortality, Climate Change and More
Alec MacGillis,  Reporters  -  ProPublica

_Stephan: Fascist authoritarians like Despot Trump and his minions don’t ever like objectively verifiable databases to be compiled or maintained because the information can be used to prove how inferior their social policies are. If you have been reading my research papers (see SR arch … ⌘ Read more

China’s Breakthrough: Thorium Discovery Promises 60,000 Years of Clean Energy
,    -  Discovery / Alert

_Stephan: This, I think, is a very big deal and, in a planetary sense, good news, although not for the United States. It is going to be a major factor in ending the carbon era that Despot Trump, his unethical servants, and his oligarch funders are working so hard to keep Americans trapped in.

Experts Say Abrupt and “Staggering” CDC Cuts Will Cost Lives
Rita Rubin,    -  Journal of the American Medical Association

Stephan: America’s medical community of physicians and nurses is beginning to recognize how deadly the incompetence and disregard for human life of Despot Trump, his Frankenstein Musk, and the rest of the fascist MAGAts really is.  It is going to have a fatal effect on the population of America.

‘Victory for scammers’: Trump fires 90% of Consumer Protection Agency staff
Jake Johnson,  Staff Writer  -  Raw Story | Common Dreams

_Stephan: Donald Trump is both a fascist authoritarian and a lifelong scammer and grifter. Steaks, University, I am sure you can remember some of them. Or do a Google search, you’ll be amazed he is not in prison. So it is entirely predictable that as President, he is making it very hard to catch scammers and grifters. Un … ⌘ Read more

↳ In-reply-to » AI isn’t a shortcut for thinking. In her guide for skeptics, Hilary Gridley reframes AI as a collaborator—not a replacement. Use it like spellcheck for your thoughts. Don’t fear it—iterate with it. Insight improves, speed follows. Full post: https://hils.substack.com/p/the-ai-skeptics-guide-to-ai-collaboration

@prologic@twtxt.net Since you have to check and double check everything it spits out (without providing sources), I don’t find any of this helpful. It’s like someone’s in the room with you and that person is saying random stuff that might or might not be correct. At best, it might spark some new idea in your head and then you follow that idea the traditional way.

Information published on the internet (or anywhere, for that matter) was never guaranteed to be correct. But at least you had a “frame of reference”: “Ah, I read this information about Linux on a blog that usually posts about Windows, so this one single Linux post might not necessarily be correct.” That is completely lost with LLMs. It’s literally all mushed together. 🤷

I asked ChatGPT what it knows about Twtxt 😂 And surprisingly it’s rather accurate:

Twtxt is a minimalist, decentralized microblogging format introduced by John Downey in 2016. It uses plain text files served over HTTP—no accounts, databases, or APIs.

↳ In-reply-to » Some A hole has been trying to pull every single Twtxt feed that existed/still exists since forever. How do I know? Welp' They've been querying my Timeline™ instance for all of it, every single twtxt file and twt Hash they can find. 😆🤦 It must have been going on for days and I have just noticed... + it's all coming from the same ASN AS136907 HWCLOUDS-AS-AP HUAWEI CLOUDS

@prologic@twtxt.net This shi_ is as fun as it is frustrating! 😆 the bot is poking at me from a different ASN now, Alibaba’s.

  1. Short term solution: I’ve geo-locked my Timeline instance since I’m the only one using it (and I only do so for reading twts when I’m away from terminal).
  2. Long term: I took a look at your Caddy WAF but couldn’t figure things out on my own; until then, I’ll be poking at Caddy-Defender, maybe throw in a Crowdsec for lols… #FUN

I’ve finished my little exploratory jaunt through the writings of Sally Rooney this week. I’ve left aside one of her novels for some other time, Beautiful World, Where Are You. Some authors have clear habits, or“projects.” Rooney strikes me as such an author. Naming either seems a bit trickier, though.

These Are Four Things You Can Do to Save America

So is it surprising that Dictator Trump, who has been convicted multiple times of millions of dollars of grifts and scams, is trying to destroy the CFPB by firing 1,474 who work a … ⌘ Read more
