Hahaha, how funny is that!? The Dunning-Kruger effect research was sparked off by two bank robbers who rubbed lemon juice in their faces as this makes them invisible, just like invisible ink. :'-D https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1995GreaterPittsburghbankrobberies

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Didn’t know that, either. 😂 The one guy even tried to test this theory with a Polaroid? And “confirmed” it? What the heck. 🥴
I’ve got a prototype of my hardcopy simulator going. I’m typing on the keyboard and the “display” goes to the printer:
https://movq.de/v/56feb53912/s.png
https://movq.de/v/235c1eabac/MVI_8810.MOV.mp4
The biiiiiiiiiig problem is that the print head and plastic cover make it impossible to see what’s currently being printed, because this is not a typewriter. This means: In order to see what I just entered, I have to feed the paper back and forth and back and forth … it’s not ideal.
I got that idea of moving back/forth from Drew DeVault, who – as it turned out – did something similar a few years back. (I tried hard to read as little as possible of his blog post, because figuring things out myself is more fun. But that could mean I missed a great idea here or there.)
But hey, at least this is running on my Pentium 133 on SuSE Linux 6.4, printer connected with a parallel cable. 😍
(Also, yes, you can see the printouts of earlier tests and, yes, I used ed(1) wrong at one point. 🤪 And ls insisted on using colors …)
The move from sourcehut git pages hosting is almost done. This is a test ;)
XMPP Interop Testing: MOAR TESTS!
Ever heard of XMPP Interop Testing? It’s this cool project that helps make sure different XMPP servers can all work
together smoothly. Our XMPP Interop Testing project provides a suite of automated tests that can be integrated into
CI/CD pipelines to verify the compliance and interoperability of XMPP server implementations.
Late last year, we reported that we had secured funding graciously provided by NLnet that allowed
us to massively build out t … ⌘ Read more

@bender@twtxt.net I think it’s actually a new XEP proposal ( https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0084.html#proto-info ), but it’s still a bit unclear. Sorry for the late and vague response, I’m still trying to test it and see what it’s even about, didn’t yet find a server, that supports it.
TKey: The Next Generation
Not speaking for my employer, just as an interested developer in an
interesting open source project.
As you might have noticed, the platform repo of the Tillitis TKey has
some alpha tags for the next generation, Castor:

An alpha tag means that all planned features for the platform are in

$ cat "$(!!)"
cat "$(find -iname '*foo*')"
This is just a test.
Yep!
Or:
$ ls -al subdir

GNOME OS ready for more extensive testing

@bender@twtxt.net Here’s a short-list:
- Simple, minimal syntax—master the core in hours, not months.
- CSP-style concurrency (goroutines & channels)—safe, scalable parallelism.
- Blazing-fast compiler & single-binary deploys—zero runtime dependencies.
- Rich stdlib & built-in tooling (gofmt, go test, modules).
- No heavy frameworks or hidden magic—unlike Java/C++/Python overhead.

“AI” automated PR reviews mostly useless junk
The team that makes Cockpit, the popular server dashboard software, decided to see if they could improve their PR review processes by adding “AI” into the mix. They decided to test both sourcey.ai and GitHub Copilot PR reviews, and their conclusions are damning. About half of the AI reviews were noise, a quarter bikeshedding. The rest consisted of about 50% useful little hints and 50% outright wrong comments. Last week we reviewed all our exp … ⌘ Read more
