Odysee stream over, worked well!
Just finished by first stream on LBRY/Odysee. If you missed it, don’t sweat it, we didn’t talk about anything too interesting, just trying Odysee’s new streaming abilities.

There was some bandwidth problems on my end, but Odysee itself seemed to handle the stream very well. ⌘ Read more

Stay frosty: possible test stream on PeerTube and YouTube in a bit
I’m going to probably be doing a test livestream in a bit. Hopefully I fixed the issue in the previous stream with Pulseaudio and buffering.

I’ll probably go live on PeerTube first, test it there, then test it on YouTube. I’m mobile and on limit battery though, so it won’t be a super long stream if everything works out.

PeerTube stream will be at this link: [https://videos.lukesmith.xyz/vi … ⌘ Read more

@xjix@xj-ix.luxe Saw your oldish note about wanting an offline/async twtxt workflow. Do you have something that works for you? My (very young!) client was designed with that in mind.

@prologic@twtxt.net You may be interested in https://github.com/u-root/u-root (I work with a contributor).

@prologic@twtxt.netFor example, this should work (no idea if it does).

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk “@niplav (#4qeibma) Hadn’t heard of this; thanks for the tip! Been getting lost in your text reviews; the Benatar piece piqued my interest: I’d been reading a critique of his earlier work – in Overall’s Why Have Children? – that really wasn’t up to scratch. Now I’m reading about pure replicators, which is a new concept, to me. :-)” -> Nice :-) Looking over my text reviews, they’re not quite finished (especially the Benatar one), so take it with a grain of salt

Last night I spent about 30 minutes putting together the bare framework for a dumb project I want to do. I’m so excited to work on it, I keep checking the website to see if I’ve posted anything new.

Today, out of the blue, somebody thanked me for some minor tech work I did in 2008. That felt pretty nice.

I really need to feel less guilty about not doing bullshit. I decided not to do bullshit work, and it ended up being a nice day.

I’m finding the microblogging format to be really useful for working out ideas.

@prologic it seem to work just fine for the most part. http://darch.dk/twtxt.txt for refernce

Thanks to a pointer from Richard Miller, got screen rotation working on my Pi 4s. Makes this absurdly wide display more practical.

Signal is experiencing technical difficulties. We are working hard to restore service as quickly as possible.

One thing I’d like to have one day (and it would be nice if it were integrated into twtxt.net and other pods with a familiar and pleasant user experience on Desktop, Web and Mobile) is an e2e encrypted messaging that is self-hosted and federated that doesn’t suck operationally (so many complicated solutions that exist that are hard to setup even for a Senior DevOps/SRE)

Okay, my #twtxt reader works-ish. Need to properly deal with timezones (and, um, maybe do any error checking).

I have a working model for the reader portion of what I want this twtxt client to do.

Sure, you can make a bunch of predictions at the beginning of the year and calculate the Brier score for last year’s predictions, but all you need to do to feel that kind of cloud-dispelling mental work is this: go pants shopping, think of how good you’ll be at losing fat in light of all your previous new-year fat-loss attempts, and choose between pants with a 34″ inseam and pants with a 35″ inseam.

@prologic@twtxt.net kinda.. It can parse the twts into an AST.. but most of the formatting out expects a string to do regex over rather then the parsed AST. thats what i am working out next.

It doesn’t take long before the high performers on those teams get sick of picking up the slack. The high performers move on to companies that care, while the team’s output continues to decline as everyone pushes the boundaries of how little work they can get away with. Eventually management wonders why certain teams have so many people but so little output, “restructuring” occurs to trim the slackers, and the hiring cycle starts again to build the teams back up.

That way at least we can form some kind of cryptographic “identity” without having to involve the users that much, it just works™

i like some of the work that keys.pub is doing with ed25519 crypto keys with something like that.

@prologic@twtxt.net it is some interesting work to decentralize all the things.. tricky part is finding tooling. i am using a self hacked version of the go openpgp library. A tool to add and remove notations would need to be local since it needs your private key.

@prologic@twtxt.net this is a go version of Keyoxide.org that runs all server side. which is based on work from https://metacode.biz/openpgp/

OpenPGP has a part of the self signature reserved for notatinal data. which is basically a bunch of key/values.

this site tries to emulate the identity proofs of keybase but in a more decentralized/federation way.

my next steps are to have this project host WKD keys which is kinda like a self hosting of your pgp key that are also discoverable with http requests.

then to add a new notation for following other keys. where you can do a kind of web of trust.

I’m hoping to build a phasor-to-clock signal generator, which divides up a phasor into an arbitrary number of ticks. Using a global phasor as a global clock would allow for interesting polyrhythms, as well more flexible precision in sequencers. It’s also closer to how human-based conducting works. #halfbakedideas

@prologic@twtxt.net I don’t automate anything but I have sensors in every room to warn me if the humidity is too high and one in the fridge to warn if it’s too warm/cold via xmpp message.

do i keep working on this hugo site or play doom instead?

@prologic@twtxt.net (#https://twtxt.net/search?tag=tsvhqdq OK. Im upgrading my tools. twtxt works pretty well inside an Emacs shell window…

in the original twtxt your URL is your identity. No need for anyone outside your control to do account managment. One reason I’ll likely be sticking with command line. But, great work

@prologic@twtxt.net what is the exact syntax neeed for threads to work in the subject, e.g. will (#tsvhqdq) do it? The whole … (#tsvhqdq) thing seems like a bit of overkill. Too many characters.
