[$] A process for handling Rust code in the core kernel
The 2024 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory-Management, and BPF Summit
included a tense session on the use of Rust
code in the kernel’s filesystem layer. The Rust topic returned in 2025 in
a session run by Andreas Hindborg, with a scope that also covered the
storage and memory-management layers. A lot of progress has been made, and
the discussion was less adversarial this year, but there are still process
issues that need to be worked out. ⌘ Read more

Erlang Solutions: My Journey from Ruby to Elixir: Lessons from a Developer

Why I Looked Beyond Ruby

For years, Ruby was my go-to language for building everything from small prototypes to full-fledged production apps. I fell in love with its elegance and expressiveness and how Ruby on Rails could turn an idea into a working web app in record time. The community—with its focus on kindness and collaboration—only deepened my appreciation. In short, Ruby felt like home.

Mathieu Pasquet: slixmpp v1.10
This new version does not have many new features, but it has quite a few
breaking changes, which should not impact many people, as well as one important
security fix.

Thanks to everyone who contributed with code, issues, suggestions, and reviews!

Security

After working on TLS stuff, I noticed that we still allowed unencrypted SCRAM to be negociated, which is really not good.
For packagers who only want this security fix, the commit fd66aef38d48b6474654cbe87464d7d416d6a5f3 should app … ⌘ Read more

In-reply-to » It's extremely surprising to me that younger non-technical people just type in their full name (properly cased first and last name with a space in between) for a technical username in account registration or login forms. I've seen that happening several times in the past few years. The field name is "Benutzername" in German, literally "username". Even adding a placeholder text to signal that they could simply use their nickname in lowercase did not change anything at all. Well, one person used at least an e-mail address.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I guess the thing is that usernames are no longer needed for many popular things, like WhatsApp. “Just install the app”, done. When I ran my Matrix server for our family, this was the first thing that people were bummed out about: “Oh, this needs a username and a password? Why doesn’t it just work? That’s annoying.”

Proposal 3 (https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/twtxt.dev/issues/18#issuecomment-19215) has the “advantage”, that you do not have to “mention” the original author if the thread slightly diverges. It seems to be a thing here that conversations are typically very flat instead of trees. Hence, and despite being a tree hugger, I voted for 3 being my favorite one, then 2, 1 and finally 4.

All proposals still need more work to clarify the details and edge cases in my opinion before they can be implemented.

well, I assume by syntax you mean Gemtext (which I like a lot, my personal blog is built on top of it), so I think it might work for twtxt clients…

I knew of twtxt in Gemini Antenna, so at least the 2017 spec might work on that protocol. I think the main issue with extensions is that they weren’t designed with many URLs and protocols in mind.

Also I have to admit that the Gemini community significantly reduced in the last few years. I don’t know how worth it is to add support for Gemini now.

At the moment of building the engine there weren’t many Gemini URLs supporting twtxt 1.1 (with twtxt.dev extensions).
Also User-Agent won’t work there, and many Gemini URLs are a mirror of the HTTP one, so I think is not strictly necessary.

Also I’d like for twtxt to avoid becoming an ActivityPub. Works well but it’s uses too many resources IMO.

I’m defending being able to self-host your Web client (like you’d do with a Wordpress, twtxt is a micrologging, at the end), instead of federated instances, so in a first thought I’d say Registries have many disadvantages being the first one that someone has to maintain them active.

I ran into import cycles with shared test utilities again. :-( Either I have to copy this function to set up an in-memory test storage across packages or I have to put it in the storage package itself and guard it with a build tag that is only used in tests (otherwise I end up with this function in my production binary as well). I don't like any of the alternatives. :-(

re reading so NewRAMStorage(…) is just something that setups your storage and initial data.. that can probably live with storage/sqlite. The point is the storage package does not import the implementations of storage.Storage It just defines the contract for things that use that interface. Now storage/sqlite CAN import storage and not have a circle dep.

It kinda works in reverse for import directions. usually you have your root package that imports things from deeper in the directory structures.. but for the case of interfaces it reverses where the deeper can import from parents but parents cannot import from children.

- app < storage
      < storage/sqlite
      < controller < storage
                   < storage/sqlite
 
- sqlite < storage

- storage X storage/sqlite

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org OK. So how I have worked things like this out is to have the interface in the root package from the implementations. The interface doesn’t need to be tested since it’s just a contract. The implementations don’t need to import storage.Storage

  • storage/ defines the Storage interface (no tests!)
    • storage/sqlite for the sqlite implementation tests for sqlite directly
    • storage/ram for the ram implementation and tests for RAM directly
  • controller/ can now import both storage and the implementation as needed.

So now I am guessing you wanted the RAM test for testing queries against sqlite and have it return some query response?

For that I usually would register a driver for SQL that emulates sqlite. Then it’s just a matter of passing the connection string to open the registered driver on setup.

[ANN] How to run an optimized Tor node on the Monero network

This video is a walk through on how to run an optimized Tor node. I worked with Ofrnxmr on this to make sure that all the information is up-to-date and correct. The goal was to create a beginner-friendly walk through that highlights everything needed to ensure that you are sending transactions over Tor, that you are receiving incoming peer connections over Tor, and that your node will continue helping out the clearnet as well. Additionally, the config includes an option … ⌘ Read more

In-reply-to » lang=en @xuu gotcha! From that PR #17 I think it was reverted? We could discuss about metadata later this month, as it seems that I'm the only person using it.

it seems to be confused with the subject right next to it.. it works better at the end of the twt string.
Yarn won’t display anything. but the parser does add it to the AST in a way that you can parse it out using twt.Attrs().Get("lang")

In the latest beta of tvOS 18.4, there are new hints of Apple’s work on a smart home hub accessory that’s rumored to be coming as soon as this year. MacRumors found that Apple has added ChatKit framework to the tvOS code, which is curious as there is no Messages app available on the Apple TV or the HomePod.

In-reply-to » (#tbyqv7a) @andros Do edits cause problems? I sometimes make them and didn't realize it may be an issue

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org i appreciate you updating this with that info. been in the weeds at work so haven’t been tracking the conversation here much. let me sit on this for a bit because often times the edits are within seconds of first post so maybe maybe i just allow them within a certain time frame or do away with them all together. i really only do it because it bugs me once i notice the typo :)

In-reply-to » @eapl.me There are several points that I like, but I want to highlight number 7. https://text.eapl.mx/a-few-ideas-for-a-next-twtxt-version #twtxt

a few async ideas for later

The editing process needs a lot of consideration and compromises.

From one side, editing and deleting it’s necessary IMO. People will do it anyway, and personally I like to edit my texts, so I’d put some effort on make it work.
Should we keep a history of edits? Should we hash every edit to avoid abuse? Should we mark internally a twt as deleted, but keeping the replies?

I think that’s part of a more complete ‘thread’ extension, although I’d say it’s worth to agree on something reflecting the real usage in the wild, along with what people usually do on other platforms.

In-reply-to » Blender-Rendered Movie 'Flow' Wins Oscar for Best Animated Feature, Beating Pixar It's a feature-length film "rendered on a free and open-source software platform called Blender," reports Reuters. And it just won the Oscar for best animated feature film, beating movies from major studios like Disney/Pixar and Dreamworks.

That’s pretty darn neat, the little indie movie (‘Flow’) made in Blender beat out some Disney/Pixar heavyweights. I actually watched it a month or so ago, nice little movie. It’s not the highest detailed animation or anything, but it has a style that it makes work.
