“There is a right to protest, but there is not a right to cause chaos.” I have heard very similar statements from the leaders of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia in 1989
@sorenpeter@darch.dk a poem about me giving Odo a free bucket:
A glint in his eye, a sly, Ferengi grin,
Quark crossed the promenade, a curious thing within.
No jeweled trinket, no weapon so grand,
But a simple pail held tight in his hand.Odo, the Constable, with a brow raised high,
“A bucket, Quark? What trickery do you try?”
The Ferengi huckster, with a salesman’s flair,
“A gift, my friend, a constable’s rare!”“For those late-night spills, a morphing mishap,
This bucket, dear Odo, will catch every scrap.
And should a suspect turn to goop and flee,
This pail’s the answer, a guarantor, you see!”Odo’s lips twitched, a hint of a smile,
At Quark’s twisted logic, his mercantile style.
“Perhaps,” he conceded, the bucket held tight,
“A useful addition, in the pursuit of right.”So Quark made his sale, with a wink and a nod,
A bucket for Odo, a Ferengi oddity, odd.
But on Deep Space Nine, where chaos takes hold,
Even a pail can be worth more than gold.
About the account, thanks, but I already have way too many. :-D
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci predicting weather is literally a step up from the 3 body problem into n-body chaos. AI is just statistics pushed up into chaos. The future of computing is indistinguishable from magical incantations
so in effect it would look something like this:

@prologic@twtxt.net That was exactly my thought at first too. but what do we put as the rel
for salty account? since it is decentralized we dont have a set URL for machines to key off. so for example take the standard response from okta:
# http GET https://example.okta.com/.well-known/webfinger resource==acct:bob
{
"links": [
{
"href": "https://example.okta.com/sso/idps/OKTA?login_hint=bob#",
"properties": {
"okta:idp:type": "OKTA"
},
"rel": "http://openid.net/specs/connect/1.0/issuer",
"titles": {
"und": "example"
}
}
],
"subject": "acct:bob"
}
It gives one link that follows the OpenID login. So the details are specific to the subject acct:bob
.
Mastodons response:
{
"subject": "acct:xuu@chaos.social",
"aliases": [
"https://chaos.social/@xuu",
"https://chaos.social/users/xuu"
],
"links": [
{
"rel": "http://webfinger.net/rel/profile-page",
"type": "text/html",
"href": "https://chaos.social/@xuu"
},
{
"rel": "self",
"type": "application/activity+json",
"href": "https://chaos.social/users/xuu"
},
{
"rel": "http://ostatus.org/schema/1.0/subscribe"
}
]
}
it supplies a profile page and a self
which are both specific to that account.
Trying to wrap my head around webfinger..
my first thoughts about it were that a subject of acct:me@sour.is would have a listing of rel’s for the different accounts that are related to me (ie. yarn, salty, twitter, mastodon, etc…)
but maybe my thinking is at the wrong level.. that each of those accounts would be on a subject level and the rels are describing different aspects of that account. so i would have salty:acct:xuu@sour.is, twitter:acct:xuu, mastodon:acct:xuu@chaos.social, yarn:acct:xuu@ev.sour.is and then i could have a main acct:me@sour.is that links them together as aliases.
I found okta will do something similar with its accounts to show as okta:acct:user@domain so maybe I am on to something?
in conways game of life, does chaos always spread strictly faster than order?
My kid just uncovered a bug in a program I wrote by grabbing my laptop and smacking the keyboard a bunch. Biological input fuzzing; a real-life chaos monkey.
the @!(sndkitref “chaosnoise”)!@ algo is now in !sndkit and !monolith #DSP #chaos #noise #patchwerk #monolith #crackle
thinking about implementing some noise generators for !sndkit. A chaos noise generator that leverages numerical instabilities in IEEE floating point, and a 1-bit linear feedback shift register noise generator based on NES audio. #sndkit #halfbakedideas #dsp

Hot take: even dysfunctional states are antifragile, so it requires a certain amount of planning and competence even to fuck shit up. Unaimed chaos tends to get deflected toward those already in deep shit.
