I need someone with a nice, and clean twtxt.txt feed. One that doesn’t include much–if any–images, and in which twts have more content. Just looking to see how formatting is handled in jenny and how to tweak it to my liking.

Peter Saint-Andre: Opinions Weak and Strong
Continuing a thread that I started to explore earlier this year, I’d like to take a closer look at the intensity of opinions. Here as almost everywhere, there is a continuum: we all have opinions we hold strongly and opinions we hold weakly. Not only do the specific contents of these buckets change over time, but in general the intensity of one’s opinions can change over time, too. We’re all familiar with the sophomoric young adult who has strong opinions about everything (yes, I resemb … ⌘ Read more

@movq@www.uninformativ.de “How does one interpret those numbers? Does it mean that people usually died at about 30 years or is that really an average, meaning lots of children died but those who survived still reached something like 70 years?” -> It’s the mean, so there is a lot of bias in there w/r to infant mortality. I don’t know about median age of death.
The ecstasy of having glasses-free vision is only matched by the complete and total relief that comes with removing rigid gas-permeable contacts. It’s like buying and selling a boat every day of your life.

Building a healthy and secure software supply chain
Securing the software supply chain is now an everyday concern for developers. As attackers increasingly target open-source components as a way to compromise the software supply chain, developers hold the keys to making their projects as secure as they can be. That’s why Docker continues to invest heavily in our developer tools like Docker Desktop […]

@(frogorbits.com) “@niplav interesting, it seems like you uploaded at least two weeks worth of posts sometime between yesterday and right now” -> Yes. I have changed my interaction with the internet a little bit – uploading/downloading in batches, not constantly online, to prevent my attention becoming even more damaged than it is now.
play/pause/stop is not a great interaction, but it does count. thinking of interactive music as a gradient rather than a dichotomy (interactive vs non-interactive) seems like a healthier way to think about things. #halfbakedideas
@prologic@twtxt.net check out this project for detecting language in two like strings. Could be useful when paired with translation services.

Seems a iOS is being looked into but because it has no central server it can’t do background app like iOS requires.

Matrix vs. XMPP
XMPP and Matrix are two decentralized and federated free sofware projects for chat, including true end-to-end encrypted chat.

i’m not really advocating that anybody should be on more networks, but FWIW libera.chat has been very nice, the staff has been doing a great job, and it’s the nearest “spiritual successor” to what we all liked about Freenode.
