Building a culture of innovation in your business with GitHub
Consider the typical software development practices in an organization. Projects are commonly closed, and causes friction across engineering teams. But open source communities work asynchronously, openly, remotely and at global-scale. What if our internal teams could reuse those same practices? ⌘ Read more

JMP: Verify Google Play App Purchase on Your Server
We are preparing for the first-ever Google Play Store launch of Cheogram Android as part of JMP coming out of beta later this year.  One of the things we wanted to “just work” for Google Play users is to be able to pay for the app and get their first month of JMP “bundled” into that purchase price, to smooth the common onboarding experience.  So how do the JMP servers know that the app communicating with them is running a version of the app bought from Google P … ⌘ Read more

I played around with parsers. This time I experimented with parser combinators for twt message text tokenization. Basically, extract mentions, subjects, URLs, media and regular text. It’s kinda nice, although my solution is not completely elegant, I have to say. Especially my communication protocol between different steps for intermediate results is really ugly. Not sure about performance, I reckon a hand-written state machine parser would be quite a bit faster. I need to write a second parser and then benchmark them.

lexer.go and newparser.go resemble the parser combinators: https://git.isobeef.org/lyse/tt2/-/commit/4d481acad0213771fe5804917576388f51c340c0 It’s far from finished yet.

The first attempt in parser.go doesn’t work as my backtracking is not accounted for, I noticed only later, that I have to do that. With twt message texts there is no real error in parsing. Just regular text as a “fallback”. So it works a bit differently than parsing a real language. No error reporting required, except maybe for debugging. My goal was to port my Python code as closely as possible. But then the runes in the string gave me a bit of a headache, so I thought I just build myself a nice reader abstraction. When I noticed the missing backtracking, I then decided to give parser combinators a try instead of improving on my look ahead reader. It only later occurred to me, that I could have just used a rune slice instead of a string. With that, porting the Python code should have been straightforward.

Yeah, all this doesn’t probably make sense, unless you look at the code. And even then, you have to learn the ropes a bit. Sorry for the noise. :-)

👋 Hey y’all yarners 🤗 – @darch@neotxt.dk and I have been discussing in our Weekly Yarn.social call (still ongoing… come join us! 🙏) about the experimental Yarn.social <-> Activity Pub integration/bridge I’ve been working on… And mostly whether it’s even a good idea at al, and if we should continue or not?

There are still some outstanding issues that would need to be improved if we continued this regardless

Some thoughts being discussed:

• Yarn.social pods are more of a “family”, where you invite people into your “home” or “community”
  
• Opening up to the “Fedivise” is potentially “uncontrolled”
  
• Even at a small scale (a tiny dev pod) we see activities from servers never interacted with before
  
• The possibility of abuse (because basically anything can POST things to your Pod now)
  
• Pull vs. Push model polarising models/views which whilst in theory can be made to work, should they?
  

Go! 👏

@prologic@twtxt.net That is a good point. I do not mind either way, but I have to admit I do not know enough about it to tell if one solution is better then the other. But I think it’s important to make it so that it brings others onboard as well as you say.
I would definitely use it - since that would remove the need to set up other things to communicate with others, so It would be a most welcomed feature to have.
