@thewismit@twtxt.psynergy.io @jlj@twt.nfld.uk in old school terminal jargon the ^H means control H or the sequence used in some terminals to indicate backspace. The “joke” is that the term failed to interpret it correctly and you can see the partially typed word before they changed it.
@jlj@twt.nfld.uk “Anyone running Urbit? Thinking about having a play with a comet. ☄🌒” -> Just as @movq@www.uninformativ.de has problems with his reading queue, I have problems with my “things to explore” queue. I even bought a planet a while back, but haven’t had time to dive into the extradimensional madness of the urbit system. Subjective impressions & reviews highly anticipated!
@adi@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de ah.. looks like you still follow movq as vain.
@ionores@twtxt.net “Perseverance ! 👏🎉😀” <3
@adi@twtxt.net Thanks, man. I’ll take a look.
@prologic@twtxt.net Logs say it’s just you :)
@prologic@twtxt.net 36% of requests since I enabled logs
@golang_news @prologic@twtxt.net Woot!
@xjix@xj-ix.luxe Saw your oldish note about wanting an offline/async twtxt workflow. Do you have something that works for you? My (very young!) client was designed with that in mind.
@prologic@twtxt.net Exactly, but that reduces the argument for URLs in the post. The client should figure out how to search based on the hashtag.
@bml@twtxt.net Yup, several. My favorite is RFC 1149, another that’s since been implemented. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_Fools%27_Day_Request_for_Comments
@prologic@twtxt.net You may be interested in https://github.com/u-root/u-root (I work with a contributor).
@twtxt.net@twtxt.net It was totally an April Fools’ joke; the IETF has a bunch of those. But! It has also been implemented. And 418 is my favorite error code.
I’m unclear if I’m going to do the twtxt.net discovery protocol; neither my web server nor Plan 9’s default capture agent strings. :-/
@prologic@twtxt.net @anth Sounds like a good idea. The hash to conv/search url should stay local to a pod.
@prologic@twtxt.net Looks like twtxt.net is already happy with it, so that’s good! I’m just going to aim for that.
My silly Plan 9 rc twtxt client now has a web page: http://txtpunk.com/tw/index.html
@prologic@twtxt.netFor example, this should work (no idea if it does).
@prologic@twtxt.netYes, I think tags should just be #foo, and let the client figure out searching if it cares.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yes, I often read the raw messages. But more to the point, the simplicity of the format is the bulk of the appeal.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de No argument that threading is an improvement. But I think (#hash) does that, and I think figuring out how to search should mostly be up to the client.
I don’t have any issue with the (foo) subjects, it’s the proliferation of the (foo url) tags. They’re just too long and ugly.
@jlj@twt.nfld.uk “@niplav (#4qeibma) Hadn’t heard of this; thanks for the tip! Been getting lost in your text reviews; the Benatar piece piqued my interest: I’d been reading a critique of his earlier work – in Overall’s Why Have Children? – that really wasn’t up to scratch. Now I’m reading about pure replicators, which is a new concept, to me. :-)” -> Nice :-) Looking over my text reviews, they’re not quite finished (especially the Benatar one), so take it with a grain of salt
@prologic@twtxt.net yah I’ll get a fix out soonish
@darch@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net Technically it should be at the start.. Though the parser doesn’t currently care where it is. Though that leads to artifacts like any random string inside perens becoming a subject.
Hah… my silly twtxt client now has “stories” mode.☺
I don’t think I’m implementing twtxt.net-style hashtags (for now?). The “” is bad enough for nicks, but they just make the plain text unreadable.
@prologic@twtxt.net I’ve just never had it be a rewarding experience.
@prologic@twtxt.net rc, the Plan 9 shell.
@prologic@twtxt.net tricky.. punctuation is being grouped in with other text. i need to break up string tokens.
@prologic@twtxt.net its the puny code for the yarn emoji. Though you would want the type-able version to redirect so its not hard to type on non mobile.
@prologic@twtxt.net :-D i consider myself subpar on UX outside of React, but can def give it a stab.
@prologic@twtxt.net we would want:
- a way to reply to the current thread. We have this.
- a way to reply to a specific twt. Need this. Maybe make all the replies start new conversations?
- check if twt is start of a conversation.. we kinda have this in the main feed with the conversation button. need to extend it for forked convs
- a way to inline first replies. maybe show one or two in the sub thread with a link to view.
- for convenience have a link to parent conv?
@xuu@txt.sour.is @prologic@twtxt.net see how it has a bar on the first level reply?
@xuu@txt.sour.is @prologic@twtxt.net we could show first level inline like twitter does. With links for deeper discussion.
@prologic@twtxt.net speaking of complexity.. How would checking twts for sub conversations complexify things?
@prologic@twtxt.net would that need a NLP library? The lang would be great for a search engine to find language prefs.
@prologic@twtxt.net @darch@twtxt.net Like with many things that live in a diaspora there will be many names for about the same thing. Just look at e-mail headers!
@vain@www.uninformativ.de I have seen it pop up on a few feeds around and adopted it into the new parser I built.
The format I have followed has been '# ' :whitespace: :key-name: :whitespace: '=' :whitespace: :value: keys can be repeated and accessed like an array of values.
@prologic@twtxt.net fixed.
@prologic@twtxt.net I know! it has 55 new emoji!! \u1F90C
@prologic@twtxt.net @jlj@twt.nfld.uk @thewismit@twtxt.psynergy.io https://gist.github.com/JonLundy/fb2a23c003be46c3a66e4b14e5971f13
@xuu@txt.sour.is @prologic@twtxt.net @thewismit@twtxt.psynergy.io ah.. probably a bug with the re parser. looks like i can do it without the <>’s with lex
@thewismit@twtxt.psynergy.io @prologic@twtxt.net Yo. wrap that naked link in some <>’s https://fosstodon.org/@/105673078150704477
@iolfree@tilde.club “I just typed in ‘censorship’ on pinterest and that is also completely banned.”
@prologic@twtxt.net deedum for android.
Kristall for OS X
Elaho for iOS
though I can only vouch for the first two.
@thewismit@twtxt.psynergy.io @darch@twtxt.net @adi@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net There is another: @hecanjog@hecanjog.com
@prologic@twtxt.net That is strange.. i wonder if there is another change that is causing it. Benchmarks are thinking the other way :|
