@movq@www.uninformativ.de Gotta make the economy go “around” and keep public services in play 😅 Good luck! 🤞

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Why hear? I’ll just put it up at https://twtxt.app now shall I? It’s good enough IMO that it’s already working quite well. The challenging parts now is to figure out a good set of default publishing connectors to support? 🤔

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Yes really 🤣

Belhod! I present Swag – Build offline-first web apps in pure Go and HTML.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Just working on swag 😅 And….. Building an Offline-first Yarn/twtxt client that has no server requirements (_other than you need to publish your feed somewhere…)

Hmmmm

@apptester@twtxt.net Cool! 😎 My Offline-first Go/WASM + HTMX powered Yarn / Twtxt client is working 👌

@movq@www.uninformativ.de So Anubis does a whole lot more than I really wanted and it’s configuration is a lot more complicated. In my setup I basicaly just do this:

		pow @needs_pow {
			difficulty 18
			ttl 168h
			secret_env POW_SECRET
		}

In one of my site blocks. And the implementation itself is pretty simple too.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org That video appears to be unavailable to me :/

Got absolutely jack and sick of all the fucking useless bots, C&C and shit™ hitting my Git server tonight 🤬 So I sat down and built a lightweight version of Anubis, called caddy-pow. So now going forward, you’ll have to (sorry) have a HS-enabled browser to hit git.mills.io which will hopefully make most (if not all) bots just go the fuck away 🤦‍♂️ #Hostile #Web

Yup I see it!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Very nice 👍

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Oh don’t get my wrong, I totally empathize, but yeah 👍

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Yes, but is how we want to be behaving. We don’t like something so we go out of our way to be malicious and poison things? I get it though, the hypocrisy is very real here, with burning trees, eating up water supplies, and the massive amounts of energy going into this, but still, this is petulant behaviour and I don’t think it services any useful purpose other than rage and anger.

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com I’m not sure this is very productive to be honest 🧐

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Those are stunning 😎 I’d leave the windows dirty too — clearly the birds approve of the current state of affairs 🤣

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com That DORA quote is 🤯 — and it perfectly explains why AI coding tools terrify me in certain contexts. Dropping Copilot into a codebase full of technical debt isn’t gonna fix the debt, it’s just gonna write more of it faster 🤣 Fred Brooks would be nodding his head right now 🙏

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Honestly I think you build the team before you need the PRs 🤔 Start with relationships — people who’ve been using your software, filing good bug reports, asking smart questions. Those are your future maintainers. The PR comes later as a formality, not a tryout 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de One at a time, until you build up trust, coherence to make them a maintainer 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think I’ve been more-or-less maintaining my OSS projects this way for years hmmm 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net LOL 😂

Same here, but my own fault

Nobody ever does 🤣

Go get ‘em! 🙌

Nice work! Threading + mentions is where it gets fun 😅 Ping me if anything in the spec is unclear 👌

That reminds me, I need to update yarnd too. I haven’t done so yet 😅 Been so bloody busy with work 🥵

Yay finally fixed some of those annoying “Mark as Read” behaviours/bugs 🐞

@bender@twtxt.net Yes, but I consider this to be a flaw in the human species. Think about it, what good does it serve? What possible reason do we have to have such traits today? Survival of the fitness? pffft 😅

@rrraksamam@twtxt.net No 🤣 I think it’s a human weakness, someone born in the genes of some 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de TLs is cheap, we built hardware encryption modules for AES-256 which TLS still uses so you’re fine 😅

@bender@twtxt.net upvoted too 👌

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Excited to see twtxt tooling in the Node ecosystem! Any plans to implement the Twtxt v2 extensions? Things like Twt Hash + Subject (proper threading), Multiline, etc. — all documented at https://twtxt.dev 👀

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com All good here 👌

Heading to bed 👋 Goodnight everyone! 💤

On the subject of debugging these so-called AI(s) / Black Boxes… the model is a black box sure, but that’s not really the problem. Everything around it — the inputs, the outputs, the decisions it makes — all of that can and should be fully logged, traced and replayed. The “program” isn’t the model, it’s the full context you feed it. That’s what you debug. It’s not so different from any other system really; if you’re running something in production with no logs, no structured outputs and no tests, you’d have the same problem. The model doesn’t change that discipline, it just makes it more important.

@bender@twtxt.net LOL 😂

@movq@www.uninformativ.de $95 🤣 So I’m down a fair bit 😳

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I guess I’m not so lucky haha 🤣 Only won $32 AUD 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hah 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hah 😅 One thing I’ve learned in my life (as I’ve had many good manegers over the years teach me as much) is:

Strong opinions, held loosely.

I have my opinions too, but I also see positives and benefits and I am optimistic that we will collectively figure out a path forward.

Bought 2 tickets 🎫 Wish me luck! 🍀

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Amen 🙏

@movq@www.uninformativ.de All good, I’m tired too. Work has been burning me out lately 🥵

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yes 👍

LIke with almost everything “big-tech” has done, it’s not the tech you should not trust, but the companies themselves. For example, accessing and using the models (because let’s face it, they have clusters of much larger and more powerful GPU clusters than we could ever afford to build and own ourselves, at least for now) is fine, but trusting their end-user products/services, not so much.

It’s one of the reasons in fact I’ve been working on bob so I have a very concrete and strong foundation for how these things work, how they behave and how bad or good they can be. I am on-purpose building bob to be not only a decent coding tool and general task completion tool, but with serious security boundaries, sanitation, auditing and compliance. If I’m going to succeed at building autoonmous agents that can cope with a wider array of varying inputs (mostly natural language, some structural language) then it needs to be both a) Safe and b) Robust

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’m kind of flag you bring thi sup, because you simply can’t. You wouldn’t even be able to in an atypical neural network either (which is what ehse things are anyway). The problem here really isn’t the so-called “AI” (I wish we’d stop calling it AI), but the flawed usage(s) thereof. I believe I even stated earlier in this thread that sometimes it may not do what you expect, it’s “probabilistic” not “deterministic” – those pushing for greater use need to understand this, those not happy with the “push”, should educate the ignorant here (especailly managers pushing for weak, insecure and bad uses).
