@prologic@twtxt.net pretty nothing berger. The “blowout” was pretty tame coming from Linus kill yourself now. The world will be a better place” Torvold.

The issue was a dev making a “fix” that didn’t have a documented problem. They reused some specific low level functions they did not understand the reason they were made.

@prologic@twtxt.net ahhh! Its the dark reader plugin breaking the page.

@prologic@twtxt.net why am I getting this on your git?

Twtxt spec enhancement proposal thread 🧵

Adding attributes to individual twts similar to adding feed attributes in the heading comments.

https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/go-lextwt/pulls/17

The basic use case would be for multilingual feeds where there is a default language and some twts will be written a different language.

As seen in the wild: https://eapl.mx/twtxt.txt

The attributes are formatted as [key=value]

They can show up in the twt anywhere it is not enclosed by another element such as codeblock or part of a markdown link.

@eapl.me@eapl.me: [boost]

#repost @eapl.me@eapl.me:

Ha, this is cool. Has its flaws, although is easy to remember.

@sorenpeter@darch.dk this makes sense as a quote twt that references a direct URL. If we go back to how it developed on twitter originally it was RT @nick: original text because it contained the original text the twitter algorithm would boost that text into trending.

i like the format (#hash) @<nick url> > "Quoted text"\nThen a comment
as it preserves the human read able. and has the hash for linking to the yarn. The comment part could be optional for just boosting the twt.

The only issue i think i would have would be that that yarn could then become a mess of repeated quotes. Unless the client knows to interpret them as multiple users have reposted/boosted the thread.

The format is also how iphone does reactions to SMS messages with +number liked: original SMS

@eapl.me@eapl.me this is interesting. Is the square bracket something used in the wild for multilingual twts?

@prologic@twtxt.net what are your thoughts? Should we extend the parser to handle [lang] and [boost] ? Or a generic attribute spec. Single word is a boolean attribute. And one with an = is a string key/value.

What about using the blockquote format with > ?

Snippet from someone else’s post
by: @eapl.me@eapl.me

Would it not also make sense to have the repost be a reply to the original post using the (#twthash), and maybe using a tag like #repost so it eaier to filter them out?

@eapl.me@eapl.me kinda like the format for markdown images? ![alt](url 'title') ?

@prologic@twtxt.net nope.

@prologic@twtxt.net what?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I have read the white papers for MLS before. I have put a lot of thought on how to do it with salty/ratchet. Its a very good tech for ensuring multiple devices can be joined to an encrypted chat. But it is bloody complicated to implement.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org i first learned about it from this vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JxvKfSV9Ns&pp=ygUOZmlib25hY2NpIGhlYXA%3D

and this site: https://www.programiz.com/dsa/fibonacci-heap

@prologic@twtxt.net What I did as a work around for mattermost was hijack the gitlab oauth login with my own auth server.

I’ve added myself to the registries at registry.twtxt.org and twtxt.tilde.institute. I wonder if there’s a list of registries. #meta

Huh. At some point, my twtxt-via-ssh shortcut from my phone stopped working. It does again now! I’ve changed nothing. Yay black boxes! 🤷🏻

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Thank you! P.S. Fixed, thank you one more time :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I think there is a problem related to the fitting around a corner that is unsolved. I watched a video about it a little while back.

Moving sofa problem

@movq@www.uninformativ.de So.. i eventually made it to the end on this one.. was able to reuse code from days 8 and 9!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de so the pathfinding puzzle has arrived?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de you are probably right.. there seems to be a final 10 trend found over on Reddit.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de tossing around inline ASM for the AoC..

In the holiday spirit i have donned my Santa hat. (shamelessly stolen from @movq@www.uninformativ.de)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I wish they just muted them out instead of making it an awfully loud meep sound.

@prologic@twtxt.net day 6 is super easy if you have int64 and some binomial theory. Skip ahead for the easy stars and catch up!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de it shouldn’t need a full bignum implementation right? Just some left and right shifts for the sq/sqrt and carry for the addition right?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de It took a little over a minute on my machine.. i should try to make it multi threaded.. 🤔

Executed in   68.96 secs    fish           external

@prologic@twtxt.net The “game” will involve racing and exploding cake - I think he got inspiration from SuperTuxKart. So will see how far we can go. He’s only five still..

@eapl.me@eapl.me I have many fond memories of Turbo pascal and Turbo C(++). They really did have a great help system. And debug tools! Its rare for language docs to be as approachable. QBasic was great. As was PHP docs when I first came into web.

@jason@jasonsanta.xyz if you do see this.. Welcome back! 👋🏼

@movq@www.uninformativ.de haha! I’m sure they had fun working around stuff like nineight

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Dang. Really going overboard with this!

@prologic@twtxt.net I didn’t have to do much backtracking. I parsed into an AST-ish table and then just needed some lookups.

The part 2 was pretty easy to work into the AST after.

@prologic@twtxt.net oh snap!

@prologic@twtxt.net you must not have any friends with plex shares. I got one.

@prologic@twtxt.net I long ago moved my evernote content to joplin.

Obligatory Twtxt post: I love how I can simply use a terminal window and some very basic tools (echo, scp, ssh) to publish thoughts, as they pop up, onto the Internet in a structured way, that can be found and perhaps even appreciated.

@eapl.me@eapl.me This is cool Windows history. Thanks for sharing

@darch@neotxt.dk webmentions are dispatched from here https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/yarn/src/branch/main/internal/post_handler.go#L160-L169

@prologic@twtxt.net its not.. There are going to be 1000s of copy cat apps built on AI. And they will all die out when the companies that have the AI platforms copy them. It happened all the time with windows and mac os. And iphone.. Like flashlight and sound recorder apps.

@prologic@twtxt.net the new product was GPTs. A way to create tailored bots for specific use cases. https://openai.com/blog/introducing-gpts (fun fact: I did an internal hackathon where we made something like this for $work onboarding. And I won a prize!)

The competed project is poe https://quorablog.quora.com/Introducing-creator-monetization-for-Poe which is basically the same idea. Make a AI bot tailored to a specific domain of knowledge. And monitize it.

The timing fits very well as openAI announced it just a few weeks ago.

@prologic@twtxt.net the going theory is that openAI announced a new product that pretty much blew up the project of one of the board members. So that board member got 3 others to vote to fire Sam.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I played that DOS Tetris game too over and over on my PC, mezmerized over the 3D graphics.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Thanks for reaching out - just general wonkiness with the Epson printing job configuration UI. They offer Fedora software, but it seems that not all features are supported

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I lasted for a long time.. Not sure where or when it was “got”. We had been having a cold go around with the kiddos for about a week when the wife started getting sicker than normal. Did a test and she was positive. We tested the rest of the fam and got nothing. Till about 2 days later and myself and the others were positive. It largely hasn’t been too bad a little feaver and stuffy noses.

But whatever it was that hit a few days ago was horrible. Like whatever switch in my head that goes to sleep mode was shut off. I would lay down and even though I felt sleepy, I couldn’t actually go to sleep. The anxiety hit soon after and I was just awake with no relief. And it persisted that way for three nights. I got some meds from the clinic that seemed to finally get me to sleep.

Now the morning after I realized for all that time a part of me was missing. I would close my eyes and it would just go dark. No imagination, no pictures, nothing. Normally I can visualize things as I read or think about stuff.. But for the last few days it was just nothing. The waking up to it was quite shocking.

Though its just the first night.. I guess I’ll have to see if it persists. 🤞

So now that I have a basic Twtxt form, I can also update my feed even when I am not on my PC.

@johanbove@johanbove.info Sounds interesting. It is only for reading or also posting?

Building a Twtxt Gui with some JS and HTML as an example application.

@eapl.me@eapl.me are ISPs still injecting code into HTTP in this the year 2023? I remember getting notices that my comcast modem is out of date pushed into websites back a decade ago.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci predicting weather is literally a step up from the 3 body problem into n-body chaos. AI is just statistics pushed up into chaos. The future of computing is indistinguishable from magical incantations

I think is part of the code by @eapl.me@eapl.me that I have based my project on. So try to ask him.

I just backed up my twtxt.txt data on a medium that will last for years if treated well: 4 sheets of paper.

@prologic@twtxt.net Perhaps we should add a meta flag to Twtxt to stop indexation by ChatGPT and consorts? I already use robots.txt for this.

Reading the backlog of my twtxt posts and it’s nice to be able to just delete some outdated things by editing a simple txt file.

Upgraded my Twtxt feed to 2023 with the twtxt.net twthash extension.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Are the apps on F-Droid better?

@prologic@twtxt.net I’ve even added the twthash message hash to my Twtxt bash CLI script so I can properly answer here.

@prologic@twtxt.net Cool to see you’re still here too.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de time to write your own browser? Or at least a fork maintained outside the EU?

@prologic@twtxt.net in the article they say they have a p99 of 15ms reading historical data. Which is pretty nuts.. Aside from having close to 900TB of SSD…

@prologic@twtxt.net curious that this feed has a image from a 3rd party domain.

@mckinley@twtxt.net you got some radiation issues? I am guessing this is non ECC rams.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I wish more standardization around distributed issues and PRs within the repo ala git-bug was around for this. I see it has added some bridge tooling now.

@prologic@twtxt.net I have seen these screen shots. But have not yet seen them in actuality. I use ublockOrigin. Maybe it gets these too unlike adblock.

For android I have revanced.. The only place I get ads is on TV. I haven’t found a replacement there.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org that and malformed XML errors were hostile AF to users that came across them.

@prologic@twtxt.net I do similar. Though probably much more simple.. I have CGNAT and use wireguard to VMs to punch through for stuff like HTTP/SSH from external.

And for SMTP I have smart hosts on the VMs that will store anf forward to my mailbox if the connection goes down.

@prologic@twtxt.net I find the L2 mode where you have one interface and multiple hosts to be tricky. Its best if you are trying to make a full mesh style. But then all hosts need to be able to see one another.

I have had more success using point-to-point connections where there are only two ends to each interface. It means you have a ton of interfaces and udp ports. but you can share the host IP across the interfaces. Add to that a simple router proto ala OSPF or RIP and you can navigate around not having a full meshnet.

I have dozens of localnet wireguard connections and many more connections to others that use bgp for route propagation.

@prologic@twtxt.net we need to finally break away from twtxt URLs and embrace @nick@server to webfinger lookups.

@prologic@twtxt.net what is the maxlen one should keep in mind here? Like say if I was charing the collected works of Shakespeare? Or maybe just a gpg keychain?

moved my yarn to a new server.. will see if it still has the slow cache issue.

@prologic@twtxt.net I had a peering to NNTP back in the day. That would be neat to setup.

@prologic@twtxt.net took with my phones 10x zoom

@movq@www.uninformativ.de yah we had a clear day and lucked out.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de the true 7 bit ascii

@movq@www.uninformativ.de that is soo much traffic. I don’t think I have ever broken 1TB /mo across my VMS ever.

@prologic@twtxt.net was this in reply to a different thread? Or maybe a hash collision?

@prologic@twtxt.net laughs.. I’m in danger.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de, do you have an example of conf.json in which I can see all the configuration possibilities? Thanks!

@prologic@twtxt.net I prefer online radio because of the large number of stations from all over the world :-)

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci excellent work on embedding the YO in Hello

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci @prologic@twtxt.net neat.. I saw this one quite a while ago. it is strictly line of sight and blocked by walls or things. The use cases were to have it integrated in the lights in a room and provide super fast connections to devices in an office or coffee shop.

https://youtu.be/AKvvEqm9Nv4

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci my last experience with it was with a Debian package which is known for being out of date :-D

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci does fail2ban work with ipv6 yet?

@hecanjog@hecanjog.com I have a script for tmux that sets up a new if needed among other things.

http://github.com/brandur/tmux-extra

Works great with powerline.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org do you need to have an explicit Is function? I believe errors.Is has reflect lite and can do the type infer for you. The Is is only really needed if you have a dynamic type. Or are matching a set of types as a single error maybe? The only required one would be Unwrap if your error contained some other base type so that Is/As can reach them in the stack.

As is perfect for your array type because it asserts the matching type out the wrap stack and populates the type for evaluating its contents.

@prologic@twtxt.net is goryon not in the google app store?

@prologic@twtxt.net The hackathon project that I did recently used openai and embedded the response info into the prompt. So basically i would search for the top 3 most relevant search results to feed into the prompt and the AI would summarize to answer their question.

@mckinley@twtxt.net ninja backup and Borg

@prologic@twtxt.net that would work if it was using shamir’s secret sharing .. although i think its typically 3 of 5 so you get 3, one to the company, and one to the “third party”. so you can recover all you want.. but if the company or 3rd wants to they need one of your 3 to recover.

but still .. if they are providing them then whats the point of trusting they don’t have copies.
