↳ In-reply-to » Atom vs. RSS: https://mckinley.cc/blog/20221109.html

@mckinley@twtxt.net Thank you! I didn’t even know about signing and encrypting XML documents. Right, RSS is a little bit messy.

Unfortunately, the autodiscovery document in one of your linked resources does not exist anymore. What annoys me in Atom is the distinction between <id> and <link>. I always want my URL also to be my ID, so I have to duplicate that – unnecessarily in my opinion.

Also, never found a good explanation why I should add <link rel="self" … /> to my feeds. I just do, but I don’t understand why. The W3C Feed Validation Service says:

[…] This value is important in a number of subscription scenarios where often times the feed aggregator only has access to the content of the feed and not the location from which the feed was fetched.

This just sounds like a very questionable bandaid to bad software architecture. Why would the feed parser need access to the feed URL at this stage? And if so, why not just pass down the input source? Just doesn’t make sense to me.

Also, I just noticed that I reference the http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/syndication/ namespace, but don’t use it in most of my feeds. Gotta fix that. Must have copied that from my yfav feed without paying attention what I’m doing.

Your article made me reread the Atom spec and I found out, that I can omit the <author> in the <entry> when I specify a global <author> at <feed> level. Awesome! Will do that as well and thus reduce the feed size.

↳ In-reply-to » @quark Hey 👋 Nice to see you around again 🤗

Welcome back, @quark@ferengi.one! Your web server doesn’t send back a Last-Modified header for your feed, so the official twtxt client complains not to cache it. I just fixed that, so that tt shows your feed (of course no progress has been made in the meantime). And the Date header of your server seems to be quite funny, too. ;-)

My website is very Piling. look at the todo list: https://niplav.github.io/todo.html! i can’t tell you much about how it will look like in a year, but i can tell you that it won’t shrink. it’s piling. everything is piling up, forgotten drafts, half-finished experiments, buggy code—fixed over time, sure, but much more slowly than the errors come rolling in. it’s an eternal struggle.

Doneness is when something is temporarily finished, but if it is modified in any way, it is either fixed because the winds of time have buried under the bitrot, and it must be dug out, or because something was found that could be removed.

** What is an addressing mode? **
In a recent post I referenced addressing modes. But what the heck are they!?

Setting the stage

The instruction register holds the program instruction that is currently being run.

A fixed number of bits within the instruction register represent the operation, e.g. “op. code” — examples of these instructions include things like add, subtract, load, and store. We can imagine the instruction register like this:

↳ In-reply-to » Another day, another 5m outage 🤬

@prologic@twtxt.net

Not sure if Starlink satellites are in orbit around/over Australia yet, but I wouldn’t go with that option anyway due to the latency alone.

I believe it is being trialled in some places in Aus already. I will admit, I’ve been signed up for the beta for a while and it’s supposed to be coming to my area sometime in 2022, though that may be delayed due to the chip shortage stuff.

I think the latency is supposed to be 45-60ms on average, which while not as good as fixed line obviously, is leagues better than old fashioned high orbit satellite broadband which is about 600~ms.

↳ In-reply-to » I'm not 100% certain @quark but 🤞 that revert works...

@prologic@twtxt.net, who calls me name when I am busy profiting? 😂 In a less serious note—because nothing is more serious than making profit, of course—yes, it seems your avatar issue has been fixed. I am kind of sad, I looked forward each day to see which random one was going to show. LOL.
