(I don’t really trust Android, though, and I suspect that apps can still install background services that are always active. Pure speculation and paranoid on my part, but still.)

Which is fair, but I would say the GrapheneOS devs in particular are also quite paranoid about this stuff and go to great pains to make sure this stuff can be controlled by the user.

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah that is probably what was happening. I wish that go build could embed the values that go install does.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci i love this talk

@movq@www.uninformativ.de This outage did affect me, though not much, via the university where my wife teaches and where I teach sometimes. They actually sent out an alert in their emergency alert system (the one they use to alert people of extreme weather events and bomb threats, mostly), telling people that all IT systems were down.

A friend of mine elsewhere pointed out that they pushed this change on a Friday, which of course no software developer with any experience would ever, ever, ever do. I have to assume there’s some toxic management at CrowdStrike, but who knows. Even more reasons to sympathize with the poor folks who are probably going to be working nights and weekends to clean up this mess.

@prologic@twtxt.net One of these days I’ll turn off registrations

@prologic@twtxt.net Hello!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Somewhere or another, I think in a William Byrd talk, I heard it suggested that the best ideas in computer science should fit on an index card (ah yes it’s this one: https://paperswelove.org/2017/video/will-byrd-most-beautiful-program/ ). He was referring to the basic principles of LISP/the lambda calculus, which have sometimes been called the Maxwell’s equations of computer programming (by Alan Kay). Simple, short, elegant, but very densely packed with meaning–generations of people have spent their whole careers unpacking what those simple rules can do.

Much of modern software feels like the polar opposite of that. Not only can you not write it on an index card, you never will be able to because people who write software don’t seem to aspire to try. I wish more people thought this way though!

@New_scientist@feeds.twtxt.net No.

@New_scientist@feeds.twtxt.net It’s insane that a single botched software update can have worldwide impact. We’ve messed up badly.

@prologic@twtxt.net hey testing a rebuild of yarnd

@support@anthony.buc.ci No.

@Prologic@twtxt.net No, haven’t had the need to. We’re sticking to trusted and true over latest and sleekest in this project. Perhaps next year.

@mckinley@twtxt.net I must admit I was tempted to use EndeavourOS for an install on a HTPC (N97 mini PC) when it arrives to quickly get up and running, but then again I haven’t done a fresh install of Arch in quite a while so it sounds like things have simplified even more since then. Hmm…

@prologic@twtxt.net haha, thanks! my wife definitely thought i was crazy for even thinking of it.

@prologic@twtxt.net Very nice 👌

@bmallred@staystrong.run overall this was pretty good and the run-walk intervals kept my heart rate low.

at around 0400 a car came racing (90-100 mph) down gulf blvd towards my direction. it turned its headlights off and actually lost traction at point and skidded a bit. okay, kids. then a bit later i hear the car coming back behind me… so i got as far to the right as i could in case the car skids again. as it passed me i looked over my shoulder and saw a police vehicle a bit back w/o lights on yet. then looking in front another cop and then they blocked the lanes to get the driver to stop. driver decided he wasn’t stopping and tried to swerve around the police and ended up ping-ponging between sides of the road. enough of that…

took a wrong turn after going over the first bridge, but luckily it went in a loop. didn’t really know exactly where i was going anyways and was just winging it from the get-go.

the rest of the run was pretty uneventful and just a fun experience. crazy idea accomplished.

@bender@twtxt.net https://x.com/mortenjust/status/1805190952358650251

@bender@twtxt.net He is running on the latest macbook pro with 128G memory. though the chrome app seems to be sitting at 125MB. i am a bit suspicious about that stat since we dont see all the worker threads and he is currently sitting on 40GB of non cache ram.

@prologic@twtxt.net Perfect 👌

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Golly, you are right 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net phew 😁

@prologic@twtxt.net yep pretty much!

@prologic@twtxt.net hey mate, all working well here so far. The login issue isn’t really an issue as far as actually logging in goes, rather if I get my password wrong it gives the response error code in console, the response of which contains the HTML for the wrong password page if you inspect it, but on the frontend itself nothing actually happens which is the confusion. Just stays on the login page as if it was never submitted. Am I alone in having this issue as well?

@prologic@twtxt.net Yes very very strange! I truly don’t know where to start on that one 🤣 Must be one of those really weird edge cases. Thanks for your help on this, I can at least post normally now.👌

I’ll check logging in etc tomorrow, time for bed lol 😴

@prologic@twtxt.net It’s weird though cos I could reproduce it on any of my browsers on either my laptop or phone 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net Firefox 126.0.1 is my primary

@prologic@twtxt.net Fix works!

@prologic@twtxt.net Woops my blockquote got mangled but you get the gist haha

@prologic@twtxt.net I was wondering if my reverse proxy could cause something but it’s pretty standard…

server {

    listen 80;
    server_name we.loveprivacy.club;

    location / {
            return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
            <a href="https://we.loveprivacy.club/search?q=%23proxy_pass">#proxy_pass</a> http://127.0.0.1:8000;
    }

}
server {

    listen 443 ssl http2;
    server_name we.loveprivacy.club;

    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/we.loveprivacy.club/fullchain.pem;

    location / {
            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
    }

}

@prologic@twtxt.net Firefox but it happens on Brave and Chromium on my laptop, or any browser (Brave, Chromium, Vanadium) I try on my Android phone.

@prologic@twtxt.net Sorry, my messages don’t get included in the current convo unless I tag you. Guess something gets lossed in translation with this weird posting issue. ANYWAY, it is rather perplexing. Clearly only an issue on my Pod, but what could the source of it be 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net Okay lemme see

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah realised I hit the character limit lol

@prologic@twtxt.net The login issue I cant yet narrow down as to when it happens as sometimes I login fine. But it gives off a 401 forbidden error. Anyway I’ve been focusing on the posting error as I figured it must be related. Registering and logging in as a new user works every time, which is weird.

@bender@we.loveprivacy.club hmm you may be right…

@prologic@twtxt.net Correct… epic fail 🤣 Been a long day and I just wasn’t thinking, nor backing up properly. Oops indeed. My usual errors still exist though.

@prologic@twtxt.net Righteo, so rookie error - I obviously had some untracked, rather important files for starting my pod and I ran a make clean. Why I originally had them in the git directory is anyone’s guess. Anyway it blew away those files including the database so that’s that. So your good self and @bender@twtxt.net etc - apologies but your profiles got nuked as well (as did my own but easily recreated).

Another thing I noticed which was the reason I ran make clean in the first place. I noticed my pod was being built with Go 1.22.4. Could this be a problem @prologic? preflight.sh actually errors out about it…

@prologic@twtxt.net on the the timeline with mentions filter I missing the latest mention that comes up in the mentions page.

Oh.. And you are mentioning my dev instance here 😄

@prologic@twtxt.net how do i enable htmx? i built latest main

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Product activation? Oh.. I never had to deal with that. I always had the CD-R XP Pro version with the enterprise key written in sharpie that my brother got somehow.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Just don’t install windows 11. I believe XP is peak Windows OS anyhow.

@prologic@twtxt.net i’ve used it on some small side projects and it was great. my 8-5 gig isn’t too keen on it yet which wasn’t surprising.

@prologic@twtxt.net @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org about time i got my act together

@prologic@twtxt.net cool, i’ll update shortly!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com great find! i’ll update that :)
