**The SDF Public Access UNIX System Celebrates 35 Years!

Here’s what I wrote about SDF back on the 20th anniversary, only now more impressive as SDF goes on in operation, and still faithful to the same ideas, objectives and modus operandi.

Happy birthday!

The hardest technical solutions are right in front of your face.
Nassim Taleb had this old anecdote of the sheer absurdity that while the suitcase and other bags had existed for lifetimes, it was only in the 1990’s that people had the idea to put wheels on the things so they didn’t have to haul them around airports all day with their strength.

It reminds you of the fact that while children in the Incan Empire did indeed have some toys with wheels, apparently no one thought to use the wheel to make a simple … ⌘ Read more

I might be in the minority on this, but given what small Web projects like Gemini aim to achieve, I don’t like the idea of establishing standards for Gemini capsules purely for the purpose of aiding automation.

Dino: Project Stateless File Sharing: First Steps
Hey, this is my first development update!
As some of you might already know from my last blog post, my Google Summer of Code project is implementing Stateless File Sharing for Dino.
This is my first XMPP project and as such, I had to learn very basic things about it.
In my blog posts I’ll try to document the things I learned, with the idea that it might help someone else in the future.
I won’t refrain from explaining terms you might take for gran … ⌘ Read more

it’s funny, conditional on AGI (and perhaps also WBE?) not doing us in, i’m pretty bullish on this century. bio seems much less of a problem, and everything else is basically a-okay, especially with people becoming richer and needing to fight less. most other collapse narratives sound pretty unlikely (though prepping is sitll a good idea! you should have three months of food & water at home)

what if we kissed 👉👈😳 in front of the whiteboard with haphazard alignment ideas

Why I renamed my blogs
After a bit of consideration and a poll on Fosstodon, which shows a clear result even before it ends, I decided to rename this blog from “jlelse’s Blog – Thoughts, stories and ideas” to “Jan-Lukas Else – Thoughts of an IT expert”.

Peter Saint-Andre: Philosophies and Ways of Life
In his book What Is Ancient Philosophy?, Pierre Hadot almost singlehandedly resurrected the ancient conception of philosophy as a way of life. Consider this observation about the philosophical schools of Greece and Rome: “For us moderns, the notion of a philosophical school evokes only the idea of a doctrinal tendency or theoretical position. Things were very different in antiquity. No university obligations oriented the future philosopher toward a specific school; instead, the futur … ⌘ Read more

I missed the exact day, but now it’s been over a year since I switched to my completely custom blogging system. And still I am very happy with it! It has all the features I need, and if I have a new idea, I can usually implement it quickly right away. ⌘ Read more

Sorry, I should have mentioned your twt #vjjdara where you already described the same idea.

@compudanzas@compudanzas.net I have no idea what that means, but it sounds exciting!

I have no idea how many people read my posts or what posts they read. But it’s great to have a reading community that likes to comment on the questions I include in my posts, help me out or give me inspiration. Thank you! ⌘ Read more

@movq@www.uninformativ.de

If Subject contains the full twt, then you can skim over conversations just by reading those lines in mutt’s index pager

Yes, I do the same, true.

So I decided: Okay, let’s have mutt do it.

And Mutt does it well. I agree it was/is a good idea.

The subject lines are already “compressed”

I noticed, yes.

I am not sure why I asked to begin with; in retrospect, in was a silly request. Perhaps the OCD in me got triggered while viewing rich headers, on a specific twt, when I saw the huge subject line that is, otherwise, always hidden.

Anyway, don’t mind me, move along. 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net Would that allow screensharing? The idea is to screenshare.

This is pretty cool. I like the link idea. Gives me an idea about pining twits I think are important.

Realization of the day: I had no idea CFAR was a pun.

I never seem to run out of projects to do. Some slosh around as mere ideas until I decide not to do them for whatever reason, but even so there’s enough to go around and then some.

Accelerating New Features in Docker Desktop
In November 2019 Docker announced our re-focusing on the needs of developers. Specifically, we set out to simplify the complexity of modern application development to help developers get their ideas from code to cloud as quickly and securely as possible. We’ve made a lot of progress since delivering against our public roadmap, including shipping Docker […]
