@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Bah. Yeah, that looks like a bug. Let’s see if this already reported upstream. 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I noticed that your feed’s last modification timestamp was missing in my database. I cannot tell for certain, but I think it did work before. Turns out, your httpd now sends the Last-Modified with UTC instead of GMT. Current example:

Sat, 03 Jan 2026 06:50:20 UTC

I’m not a fan of this timestamp format at all, but according to the HTTP specification, HTTP-date must always use GMT for a timezone, nothing else: https://httpwg.org/specs/rfc9110.html#http.date

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Let’s hope they find the guys who fired that rocket onto the balcony and we actually get a fireworks ban.

@prologic@twtxt.net Very impressive! :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Watch out for dragons!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de yep sounds about right 🤔

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Oh no, fuck that 🤣 That’s why I built an FFI so I can call C-functions via shared libraries 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net porting SQLite would be kick-ass

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Very nice! We also had some snow this morning, but it’s already melted. And the sun is missing, too. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Looks kind of nice 😊

@movq@www.uninformativ.de What I wish for once on this miserable planet is for coporations one day ohave a different set of reasons to exist and thrive other than:

but since the only goal of that manufacturer is to make money, they do it

Life becomes very boring and uninteresting when your only goal in life is to “make more fucking money” 💰 Fuck 🤬 Fuck this Corporatocracy we live in 🤦‍♂️

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club

Steps to world domination:

1. “Invent” “AI” (by using other people’s data).
   
2. Get people hyped about it and ideally hooked on it.
   
3. Only provide it as a cloud service. But hey, if you want to, you can run it locally!
   
4. Buy all hardware available on the market, so that nobody but you can build more systems.
   
5. All PCs of consumers and competitors are too weak now and can’t be upgraded anymore.
   
6. Everybody depends on your cloud service! Win!
   

All of that is possible because corporations don’t have a “conscience” in capitalism. Nobody forces the RAM manufacturers to sell all their stuff to just one or two buyers, but since the only goal of that manufacturer is to make money, they do it.

@prologic@twtxt.net “AI” companies are clearly to blame

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club da fuq?! 🤯

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Wow, that’s sick! :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’m pretty sure I know a bunch of people who love to blow up their money. :-(

Holy shit! :-O At least, the walls didn’t shake here. But we also had some very loud explosions, maybe they were far enough away. :-? Of course, the bangs continued last night.

Maybe some politicians need to be personally attacked with this sort of shit first in order to ban it once and forever.

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe @prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, it’s been ages that I came across Trac. :-D

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe I can’t believe Trace and Edgewall Software is still around and in use 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de well, emojis in the TTY (as in, what we’re used to now, not actual teletypes) are simply rendered as tofu boxes or not at all

@movq@www.uninformativ.de that’s a huge no about the last part, but you know what will happen?

The 20th anniversary of the Haruhi Suzumiya anime series, that’s what!

(Also I was told YOTLD was actually 11 years ago and everyone joining it after that is pretty much late)

@javivf@adn.org.es

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I haven’t spoken to a single person yet who was a fan of all this. Not even the more conservative family members.

Some people have detonated several really loud bombs yesterday. This wasn’t a “Böller”. It shook my walls, doors, windows. Family members in other parts of the country reported the same … Is this a new trend?

@javivf@adn.org.es Happy New Year! Let’s hope so. 😂

It’s that time again, I’ve just rotated my #twtxt feed!

Find last quarter’s twts at the feed, or see them on the web.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org It’s actually not nearly as half bad as I really thought it would be. Just having to eventually deal with the “lowering down” to machine code / ARM64 assembly in the end once you’ve verified the semantics in the VM.

@prologic@twtxt.net Not bad for a start, ey! Looking forward to see you going down these rabbit holes and opening one can of worms after the other. :‘-D Very, very impressive, hats off to you. :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org A “Hello World” binary is ~372KB in size. I currently have peephole optimization and deac code optimizations in play, and a few other performance related ones, but nothing too fancy. I have a test case that ensures fib(35) doesn’t regress too badly as I continue to evolve the language.

@prologic@twtxt.net Can you just make them optional? :-) But that of course complicates things.

@prologic@twtxt.net That’s impressive. How large are the resulting binaries? You don’t have any optimizations in place yet, do you?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I hid in the workshop with earmuffs for the absolute worst part.

@javivf@adn.org.es Heck yeah, let’s do this! :-) Welcome to 2026.

@prologic@twtxt.net Not bad. 😃

@prologic@twtxt.net Anything by Charlotte de Witte. 😅 For example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfkgSlmoe1I

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Happy New Year to you too! 🥳

@movq@www.uninformativ.de This is fuck’n great shit™ Where did you find this? 🤔 Got any more shit™ like this? 🙏

@dce@hashnix.club Happy New Year to you too! 🥳

@ionores@twtxt.net Very nice! 😊 Happy New Year to you too!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ooh, lovely! 🌇

I’m drowning the noise with this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgivYC2s6hs 😅

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe We finally abandoned our GitLab. I publicly mirrored my code in the Mills Data Center a few days ago: https://git.mills.io/lyse/tt2

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Well, just a very limited subset thereof:

1. inline and multiline code blocks using single/double/triple backticks (but no code blocks with just indentation)
   
2. markdown links using using [text](url)
   
3. markdown media links using ![alt](url)
   

And that’s it. No bold, italics, lists, quotes, headlines, etc.

Just like mentions, plain URLs, markdown links and markdown media URLs are highlighted and available in the URLs View. They’re also colored differently, similarly to code segments.

I definitely should write some documentation and provide screenshots.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org You actually have a Markdown parser/renderer in there? Oh dear. I would have been (well, I am) way too lazy for that. 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net Happy New Year 🥳🎆

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Do you have your client’s code hosted anywhere?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org •́⁠ ⁠ ⁠‿⁠ ⁠,⁠•̀

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Because they’re just boxes. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, I see. Just crudely checked on my computer, with around 0.013 seconds, Python 2.7 seems a tad faster than Python 3.14’s 0.023 seconds in this little program.

The lazy imports sound not too bad, but I just skimmed over them. There are surprisingly many exceptions, but yeah, no way around them. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Mu (µ)’s startup latency appears to be ~10ms on my machine:

$ time ./bin/mu ./foo.mu 

real    0m0.011s
user    0m0.004s
sys     0m0.006s

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org to be fair, that’s nothing, really

the logo used to be way larger and occupied the entire header, up to obfuscating the menu at my computer…

I do have a nitpick though, the logo isn’t transparent so it will look off in dark themes.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org

I assume you made the thing load quickly, didn’t you?

That’s the problem with Python. If you have a couple of files to import, it will take time.

I want this to be reasonably fast on my old Intel NUC from 2016 (Celeron N3050 @ 1.60GHz) and I already notice that the program startup takes about 95 ms (or 125 ms when there are no .pyc files yet). That’s still fine, but it shows that I’ll have to be careful and keep this thing very small …

Python 3.14 will bring lazy imports, maybe that can help in some cases.

I can track users’ feeds now

@prologic@twtxt.net I’d happily write API documentation for go.yarn.social/client

@movq@www.uninformativ.de the ‘writing a Yarn client’ thought goes all the way back to my ‘novaburst’ days in Yarn.social, but with the other pod apparently being gone, there’s no proof of it, except on everyone’s minds.
