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.

PEP 758: Allow except and except* expressions without parentheses
This PEP 1 proposes to allow unparenthesized except and except* blocks in Python’s exception handling syntax. Currently, when catching multiple exceptions, parentheses are required around the exception types. This was a Python 2 remnant. This PEP suggests allowing the omission of these parentheses, simplifying the syntax, making it more consistent with other parts of the syntax that make parentheses optional, and improving readability in certain cases. ⌘ Read more

More thoughts about changes to twtxt (as if we haven’t had enough thoughts):
- There are lots of great ideas here! Is there a benefit to putting them all into one document? Seems to me this could more easily be a bunch of separate efforts that can progress at their own pace:
1a. Better and longer hashes.
1b. New possibly-controversial ideas like edit: and delete: and location-based references as an alternative to hashes.
1c. Best practices, e.g. Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
1d. Stuff already described at dev.twtxt.net that doesn’t need any changes.
We won’t know what will and won’t work until we try them. So I’m inclined to think of this as a bunch of draft ideas. Maybe later when we’ve seen it play out it could make sense to define a group of recommended twtxt extensions and give them a name.
Another reason for 1 (above) is: I like the current situation where all you need to get started is these two short and simple documents:
https://twtxt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/twtxtfile.html
https://twtxt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/discoverability.html
and everything else is an extension for anyone interested. (Deprecating non-UTC times seems reasonable to me, though.) Having a big long “twtxt v2” document seems less inviting to people looking for something simple. (@prologic@twtxt.net you mentioned an anonymous comment “you’ve ruined twtxt” and while I don’t completely agree with that commenter’s sentiment, I would feel like twtxt had lost something if it moved away from having a super-simple core.)All that being said, these are just my opinions, and I’m not doing the work of writing software or drafting proposals. Maybe I will at some point, but until then, if you’re actually implementing things, you’re in charge of what you decide to make, and I’m grateful for the work.

83(4) GDPR sets forth fines of up to 10 million euros, or, in the case of an undertaking, up to 2% of its entire global turnover of the preceding fiscal year, whichever is higher.
Though I suppose it has to be the greater of the two. But I don’t even have one euro to start with.

** Guitar driven development **
I’ve found myself in possession of a guitar. Actually, the guitar that I had in middle school has come back to me after a decade’s long jaunt with someone else. I don’t really play guitar, but, I figured I should restring it and tune it.

游戏《冰汽时代2》中的“暖券”是什么？在现实中有类似的通货么？
终于写完了，6000 字长文解读游戏中的「暖券」设定。
直接看游戏中给的标准答案吧： 暖券是城市中使用的货币。它最初只是用于兑换固定热能的票证，后来才发展成为通用的交换手段。
「暖券」这个概念在 Frostpunk 一代中还没有出现（冰汽时代 1 中只有资源，没有货币），到二代中暖券就已经成为了事实上的货币。所以如果仅考虑 Frostpunk 2 游戏的话，直接简单理解： 暖券 = 钱。不妨再看一下游戏中对暖券的详细介绍：

Some more arguments for a local-based treading model over a content-based one:
The format:
(#<DATE URL>)or(@<DATE URL>)both makes sense: # as prefix is for a hashtag like we allredy got with the(#twthash)and @ as prefix denotes that this is mention of a specific post in a feed, and not just the feed in general. Using either can make implementation easier, since most clients already got this kind of filtering.Having something like
(#<DATE URL>)will also make mentions via webmetions for twtxt easier to implement, since there is no need for looking up the#twthash. This will also make it possible to make 3th part twt-mentions services.Supporting twt/webmentions will also increase discoverability as a way to know about both replies and feed mentions from feeds that you don’t follow.

the stem matching is the same as how GIT does its branch hashes. i think you can stem it down to 2 or 3 sha bytes.
if a client sees someone in a yarn using a byte longer hash it can lengthen to match since it can assume that maybe the other client has a collision that it doesnt know about.
