In-reply-to » Pinboard describes itself as "Social bookmarking for introverts". Maybe txtxt is social networking for introverts.

Or maybe that’s old-school twtxt, and twtxt.net is those people who’re constantly trying to coax the introverts out. ;-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de “Random thought: Would be great if you could do for i in ...; do something "$i" & done ; wait in a Shell script, but with the Shell only spawning one process per CPU.” -> Interesting which annoyances stay in the back of the head – I’d never articulated this, but it’s absolutely true that this would be great.

@adi@twtxt.net “@niplav Your reasoning is that if Zeus would create mistresses he would create too many people?” -> Nope, that he wouldn’t be able to control them (since they are only slightly less powerful than him), and “you cannot put down what you have conjured up”

Sure. I think search, if it’s going to exist, should be the client’s responsibility. But I also value the readability of the raw twtxt file a lot more than y’all do.

@(frogorbits.com) @niplav@niplav.github.io “I sign a lot less stuff these days now that my phone can pretend to be a credit card. Also: an impostor with a quantum computer can’t pretend to sign documents on my behalf…” -> It’s good that pen signatures are completely unfakeable. They’re unbelievably reliable. We can’t just copy & photoshop around the edges. Better worry about those definitely-soon-to-exist quantum computers that might crack cryptography.

@adi@twtxt.net “I usually seen the opposite. Women are more interested in longevity and happy that studies show that they live more than men.” -> I probably could have been clearer: It seems to me that women are on average much less interested in life-extension (methods beyond usual health advice such as the old “exercise, eat vegetables”) than men. This might just be founder/sampling bias (life extension comes out of the relatively male dominated libertarian/techno-optimist cluster). Actually, maybe there’s just a variance thing here: median man cares less about his longevity than the median woman, but the variance for men is higher.

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk “A good read: Why I find longtermism hard – […]” -> Interesting! I don’t particularly share that emotional intuition (although my bias probably cuts the other way: I am more moved by interesting projects, and more interesting problems probably also less neglected)–I generally find most problems other people find salient not very moving at all (although probably equally strongly moved by extremely near suffering compared to other people, but with a stronger emotional distance discount). EA makes sense in a very different way to me (phenomenologically, probably closest to philosophical high valence states it evokes).

In-reply-to » My finger server now includes the last post from tw that doesn't have a subject. 'finger a@9srv.net'

Huh. In my feed, there is (correctly) a backslash before that . in the sed command, but twtxt.net is stripping it.

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk “Anyone running Urbit? Thinking about having a play with a comet. ☄🌒” -> Just as @movq@www.uninformativ.de has problems with his reading queue, I have problems with my “things to explore” queue. I even bought a planet a while back, but haven’t had time to dive into the extradimensional madness of the urbit system. Subjective impressions & reviews highly anticipated!

@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

@prologic@twtxt.net we would want:

  • a way to reply to the current thread. We have this.
  • a way to reply to a specific twt. Need this. Maybe make all the replies start new conversations?
  • check if twt is start of a conversation.. we kinda have this in the main feed with the conversation button. need to extend it for forked convs
  • a way to inline first replies. maybe show one or two in the sub thread with a link to view.
  • for convenience have a link to parent conv?
