Last year my girls did these Advent of Christmas things:

This year is no different! 😁

Last year I did the Advent of Code challenge 👨‍💻 This year will be no different! 🤣 — Starts in 8hrs from now for me.

Who will join me? 🤔 I will be Yarning all my solutions 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I’m a big fan of using PyCharm and IntelliJ on large Python and Java codebases respectively. In my personal life, I mostly use Emacs (because I don’t hack much Java outside of work), but I do wonder what GoLand is like.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ooh so pretty!

🤔 👋 Reconsidering moving Yarn.social’s development back to Github: Speaking of which (I do not forget); @fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com and I were discussing over a video call two nights ago, as well as @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org who joined a bit later, about the the whole moved of all of my projects and their source code off of Github. Whilst some folks do understand and appreciate my utter disgust over what Microsoft and Copilot did by blatantly scraping open source software’s codebases without even so much as any attempt at attribution or respecting the licenes of many (if not all?) open source projects.

That being said however, @fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com makes a very good and valid argument for putting Yarn.social’s codebases, repositories and issues back on Github for reasons that make me “torn” over my own sense of morality and ethics.

But I can live with this as long as I continue to run and operate my new (yet to be off the ground) company “Self Hosted Pty Ltd” and where it operates it’s own code hosting, servicesa, tools, etc.

Plese comment here on your thoughts. Let us decide togetehr 🤗

@benk@kwiecien.us Ubuntu is being similarly mean to me. “Can’t upgrade X because Y depends on older version. Can’t update Y because there’s a dependency problem”. I’m pretty sure the dependency problem would be solved with an upgrade, but I can’t perform one…

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk Ooh fantastic. I love shots like this!

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com (#twksmyq) IPv6 because localhost -> ::1 is preferred on linux over ol’ 127.0.0.1

Now this is very useful.. it means when yarn is doing an HTTP request to itself its not closing the connection. that could mean a http.Response Body is not getting closed.

Hmmm so… We seem to have a few pods offline in the network 😂 Also 😢

• @jlj@twt.nfld.uk’s twt.nfld.uk => 504 Gateway Time-out
  
• @adi@f.adi.onl’s f.adi.onl => 200 OK but doens’t appear to be a pod anymore?! 🤔
  
• @eldersnake@yarn.andrewjvpowell.com’s personal pod => offline due to lack of Solar/Battery power? 😅
  
• @lohn@tw.lohn.in’s personal pod => 503 Service Unavailable
  

It’s a bad day for Yarn.social 🤣

Good thing it’s all decentralised 😉

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com This is exactly what my partner says. I tell my partner that we don’t have to send the cat to college so it’s okay.

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com Hah! No I run http://www.nncpgo.org/ on my home networks, so I needed to upgrade everything. I’d been putting off the upgrade for a bit because it mostly just worked, but wanted a few of the new fixes (and I stay abreast of the project).

@movq@www.uninformativ.de If there were something like verify_command, how could we signal to other feed consumers how to decrypt and/or verify a post? Also what about using TOFU here instead of a key sharing service?

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com Some of my friends in college were really excited to actually find other fellow nerds in college willing to engage in a key signing party. They used it to send like 3 or 4 inconsequential emails and then just gave up on it.

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m not really big on WoT. (I think openpgp keyserver strips those signatures out. ) there needs to be a better way.

@prologic@twtxt.net if we want to pick a signature form. We can probably get the parser to respect it. I think keys.pub puts the signed content inside the saltpack encoding. PGP header/footer should be an easy parse.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I believe also that yarnd’s parser basically ignores the lines too.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de i believe the delete of any twt was a tech limitation with retwt parser not knowing where in the file a twt came from. lextwt tracks the bytes in file where a twt was read from. which could be used to delete a twt from file.. in theory.

👋 Q&A: Let’s discuss the removal of Editing and Deleting your last Twt. This is something @fastidious@twtxt.net has raised to me on IRC and something I find quite a valid approach to this. Over time I believe the utility and value of “Editing” and “Deleting” one’s last Twt isn’t as valuable as we’d like and increased complexity and introduces all kinds of side-effects that are hard to manage correctly. I vote for the removal of this feature from yarnd, the mobile app nor API support this anyway…

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com A delay is fine. Just, sometimes I’ll do something else, and look back at my feed a few hours later and forget that I haven’t refreshed the feed. And I totally support making sure the experience continues to be first-class for folks opting out of Javascript.

@prologic@twtxt.net Is there a desire to, in the future, add some opt-in AJAX to refresh the Timeline?

@adi@f.adi.onl Ugh sorry for not replying. If the file list is dynamic, usually you use something like autoconf to generate the Makefile. I’ve also used wildcards in the past and that works okay. You should be able to use shell commands to populate the file list.
