I installed GrapheneOS for the first time on Wednesday last week on a used Pixel 7a, and I’m impressed. Installation was almost seamless, and I was able to do it from another Android phone. I’ve run into very few wrinkles, even using Google’s proprietary apps with GrapheneOS’s “sandboxed” version of Google Play Services. The main problems I’ve noticed: I can’t cast, and Google Timeline doesn’t seem to work (though I imagine the intersection between people keen to use GrapheneOS and keen to have Google log their location history is pretty small).
IRCCloud is shareware and proprietary :(. Free period only two weeks and after your connection disabled after two hours of inactivity. Maybe Quassel or TheLounge is better?
I’m enjoying Wesley Chu’s Tao and Io series. Spies, action, ancient aliens. Some funny parts, some interesting world-building parts, some action-filled parts. I picked up The Fall of Io at random from a library a few weeks ago, and it turned out to be the last in a series of six (technically two series), so after finishing that I read the first and am partway through the second. Usually I try to read series in order, but this way is interesting. One thing I liked about The Fall of Io was that it it followed many points of view with somewhat conflicting interests, some more evil than others, and I felt sympathy for most of them. (I was kind of hoping it would be about Jupiter’s moon Io, but it wasn’t, but I’m satisfied with what I ended up with.) (2/4)

Ignite Realtime Blog: Smack 4.5.0-beta5 released
The Ignite Realtime developer community is happy to announce that Smack 4.5 entered its beta phase. Smack is a XMPP client API written in Java that is able to run on Java SE and Android. Smack’s beta phase started already a few weeks ago, but 4.5.0-beta5 is considered to be a good candidate to announce, as many smaller issues have been ironed out.
With Smack 4.5 we bumped the minimum Java version to 11. Furthermore Smack now requires a minimum And … ⌘ Read more

I share I did write up an algorithm for it at some point I think it is lost in a git comment someplace. I’ll put together a pseudo/go code this week.
Super simple:
Making a reply:
- If yarn has one use that. (Maybe do collision check?)
- Make hash of twt raw no truncation.
- Check local cache for shortest without collision
- in SQL:
select len(subject) where head_full_hash like subject || '%'
- in SQL:
Threading:
- Get full hash of head twt
- Search for twts
- in SQL:
head_full_hash like subject || '%' and created_on > head_timestamp
- in SQL:
The assumption being replies will be for the most recent head. If replying to an older one it will use a longer hash.
