@bender@twtxt.net There is no aim. Just learning 😅 That way I can actually speak and write with authority when it comes to these LLM(s) a bit more 🤣 Or maybe I just happen to become that random weirdo genius that invents Skynet™ 😂

This is one of my attempts:

$ go build ./cmd/xor/... && ./xor
Generation  95 | Fitness: 0.999964 | Nodes: 9   | Conns: 19
Target reached!

Best network performance:
  [0 0] → got=0 exp=0 (raw=0.000) ✅
  [0 1] → got=1 exp=1 (raw=0.990) ✅
  [1 0] → got=1 exp=1 (raw=0.716) ✅
  [1 1] → got=0 exp=0 (raw=0.045) ✅
Overall accuracy: 100.0%
Wrote best.dot – render with `dot -Tpng best.dot -o best.png`

Over the past few weeks I’ve been experimenting with and doing some deep learning and researching into neutral networks and evolutionary adaptation of them. The thing is I haven’t gotten very far. I’ve been able to build two different approaches so far with limited results. The frustrating part is that these things are so “random” it isn’t even funny. Like I can’t even get a basic ANN + GA to evolve a network that solves the XOR pattern every time with high levels of accuracy. 😞

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Also not very readable. Quite cryptic really 😅 I have no idea how this works 🤦‍♂️

My vision with this newsletter is to have a slower medium for communicating about my art as well as ideas and projects I’m working on regarding how we can use digital technology to our own benefits instead of being exploited by big tech.

Twtxt not sloe enough for you? 🤣

@thecanine@twtxt.net I think I know what you mean now.

@sorenpeter@darch.dk What will you be writing about? What’s your target audience? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net Appreicate it 🙏

https://youtu.be/1GN3xBuAgrI?si=ezBYJeSOFgtBdjEu – Can someone please just fire Trump already? What a fucking idiot?! The man is a lunatic 🤦‍♂️

@thecanine@twtxt.net I admit I’m a little unclear of your position. What do you mean by “not the right approach”? What’s your position here? 🤔 – I have a funny feeling we actually algin, just getting our wires all mixed up in communicating it 🤣

Hey y’all 👋 I am told my “participation” is drastically down of ,ate So sorry 😞 Busy quite a busy few weeks at work with a reorg and lots of complex things happening in real live too 😅 – Hope everything is doing well 🤗

@bender@twtxt.net Haha well said 🤣

The only true way to write is full of typos, spelling mistakes and gramatical errors right? 😅

@bender@twtxt.net Bahaha 🤣

@thecanine@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de So I actually agree with you! I think Dustin is taking a bit of a “deep and dark” path here (depression), and there are many parallels to other types of activities that we can all talk to. “AI” or “LLM”(s) here should be no different. Use them, Don’t use them. I don’t really see how it takes away our creativity or critical thinking.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’m more worried about Dustin Curtis’s take on Thoughts on Thinking piece 🤔 It’s a worrying time we’re facing, where all human creativity, critical thinking and having to “think” at all just goes out the window 🪟 wow 🤯

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I kind of need some more details if you can. Logs, observations anything! Please 🙏

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I mean are you surprised? 😮

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Watching your vlog right now 😅

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Hmmmm? 🤔

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I just got a bit bored 🥱

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Haha I did that for a couple of days last week 🤣 What was I doing you ask?! 😅 Studying and learning how Artificial Neural Networks with Evolutionary Adaptation work 🤣

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Cool! 😎 Mind joining the same IRC space? 🙏

Honestly for these types of services, there probably isn’t much point, as the layer4 module in Caddy doesn’t do inspection/filtering anyway I think? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net It’s still a straight-through to the Eris backend that itself uses a Let’s Encrypt cert now. Haven’t tried to also terminate TLS at the Edge yet.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Seems to be fine 🙌

@bender@twtxt.net basically because we don’t readily use or support range hunters when requesting feeds it’s ideal to keep feed small for the time being at least until we think about writing up a formal specification for this, but it’s also only for Http hosted feeds

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Very pretry and so sharp! 👌

@movq@www.uninformativ.de You reckon that’s a real possibility? 🤔

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz It would right 😅

@bender@twtxt.net 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net I normally don’t myself either, but that saide, I think that’s kind of @movq@www.uninformativ.de’s point right? This new unauthenticated rate limit is absurd! 😱 You may as well just fucking 403 Forbidden and be done with it 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Basically the way I’m reading this is 1 RPM. This is a rather aggressive rate limit actually. This basically makes Github inaccessible and useless for basically anything unless you’re logged in. You can basically kiss “pursuing” casually, anonymously goodbye.

Imagine if I imposed that kind of rate limit on twtxt.net?! 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Also the so-called “deadline” isn’t set it stone. We’re all busy people with day jobs and lives, so we may have to move it anyway 😅

This ☝️

@xuu@txt.sour.is Good point! What did you have in mind? 🙏

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org No not yet!

@bender@twtxt.net Good , glad you agree 👍

I’m also thinking of adding eye-off icon next to every Twt that, when clicked, hides that feed (tooltip: “Hide this feed”). This would work with the filters as a “temporary additive filter” to restrict/control the current view.

I’m thinking of bringing back filters (this time not as a feature flag, just baked in): New filters: Hide Feed, Hide Bots, Hide News, Media Only, No Replies, Local Only — toggle to trim noise & surface the Twts you care about.

@javivf@adn.org.es Sorry. 😂 Meet me on IRC at irc.mills.io in #edgeguard 👌 I’m @james@yarn.mills.io there 😅

@bender@twtxt.net Haha fine 🤣

@javivf@adn.org.es Hit me up on IRC or something and we’ll get started 👌

Farrrk me Google search is and these days. Will they please “fuck off” with this Gemini AI garbage at the top that takes forever and is distracting as shit™ 💩 Fark me 🤦‍♂️ #Google #Search #Sucks #AI #Gemini

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I actually use sift a lot these days for most “searching” – at least code and text searching. For finding files by name I still use find | grep.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz It’s also perfectly safe to nuke your cache as well. i.e: rm data/cache* and it’s all good, things will just get rebuilt 👌

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I totally recommend zs 🤣 It powers all my sites! 😅 https://twtxt.dev https://yarn.socia/ https://prologic.dev etc 😎

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Hmmm Please if this happens again, help me reproduce it. Any clues in the logs? Hmm? 🧐 My own pod has been running flawlessly for weeks now 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Same here, you do get used to things over time and build a sort-of “muscle memory”. But you’re right, maybe they have terrible interfaces and usage options? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net I like to self-host 🤣
