Fire provides long-lasting benefits to bird populations in Sierra Nevada National Parks
Researchers have found that low to moderate-severity fires not only benefit many bird species in the Sierra Nevada, but these benefits may persist for decades. In addition to a handful of bird species already known to be “post-fire specialists,” a broad variety of other more generalist species, like Dark-eyed Juncos and Mountain Chickadees, clearly benefited from wildfire. ⌘ Read more

Mathieu Pasquet: Poezio 0.15 / 0.15.1
About three years since the last version, poezio 0.15 (and 0.15.1 to address
a small packaging mishap, version numbers are cheap) was released yesterday!

Poezio is a terminal-based XMPP client which aims to replicate the
feeling of terminal-based IRC clients such as irssi or weechat; to
this end, poezio originally only supported multi-user chats.

Not a lot this time around… Maybe next time?

[Issue confirmed by official monero moderator on dread:] After some thoughts, I think you are right and that the arbitration system in Haveno doesn’t prevent arbitrators from pulling the funds.

Holly Hill - Long run: 12.06 miles, 00:09:43 average pace, 01:57:15 duration
did not sleep last night. the bed was not too comfortable and i was burning up for some reason. the run went well. it was a decent temperature and i kept the pace pretty moderate (mainly around a 9:30). hit two bridges going back-and-forth between daytona. i did walk a bit around mile ten to recollect myself but a good run nonetheless.

my daughter got first all-around in her gymnastic meet and did really well on all events, too!

@eapl.me@eapl.me here are my replies (somewhat similar to Lyse’s and James’)

1. Metadata in twts: Key=value is too complicated for non-hackers and hard to write by hand. So if there is a need then we should just use #NSFS or the alt-text file in markdown image syntax ![NSFW](url.to/image.jpg) if something is NSFW

2. IDs besides datetime. When you edit a twt then you should preserve the datetime if location-based addressing should have any advantages over content-based addressing. If you change the timestamp the its a new post. Just like any other blog cms.

3. Caching, Yes all good ideas, but that is more a task for the clients not the serving of the twtxt.txt files.

4. Discovery: User-agent for discovery can become better. I’m working on a wrapper script in PHP, so you don’t need to go to Apaches log-files to see who fetches your feed. But for other Gemini and gopher you need to relay on something else. That could be using my webmentions for twtxt suggestion, or simply defining an email metadata field for letting a person know you follow their feed. Interesting read about why WebMetions might be a bad idea. Twtxt being much simple that a full featured IndieWeb sites, then a lot of the concerns does not apply here. But that’s the issue with any open inbox. This is hard to solve without some form of (centralized or community) spam moderation.

5. Support more protocols besides http/s. Yes why not, if we can make clients that merge or diffident between the same feed server by multiples URLs

6. Languages: If the need is big then make a separate feed. I don’t mind seeing stuff in other langues as it is low. You got translating tool if you need to know whats going on. And again when there is a need for easier switching between posting to several feeds, then it’s about building clients with a UI that makes it easy. No something that should takes up space in the format/protocol.

7. Emojis: I’m not sure what this is about. Do you want to use emojis as avatar in CLI clients or it just about rendering emojis?
