Tell me about GoToSocial... it seems to have mutuals and local only posting ... what are the downsides? mastodon.social/@misc/11262189…
in reply to Jesse Baer 🔥

It's still not stable and it's missing some features, for example post editting isn't available. It also doesn't implement some of the endpoints of the mastodon API yet. No push notifications either yet. It requires authorised fetch so some software that does not implement it correctly does not operate well with it, for example Lemmy or Write Freely.

I haven't seen anybody mentioning it or even noticing it, like it's just the water we swim in now, but this month marks the fiftieth anniversary of the release of what would become a seminal, and is arguably the single most important, piece of social software ever created.

Written by Douglas McIlroy and James Hunt and released with the 5th Edition of Unix this month in 1974: diff.

My friend @gvwilson has argued, and I am absolutely ready to believe, that you can divide the entire computational universe into "has diff and patch or doesn't", and that people living without it don't even have the language to recognize how bad they've got it, how many opportunities to share and collaborate have been silently denied them.

Word processors, spreadsheets, slides? "Track changes" is _trash_ by comparison. No programmer would consent to live the way we make office workers live.

I wrote a bit more about it here but:

exple.tive.org/blarg/2024/06/1…

I have a theory that you can tell if a technology belongs to the people if two strangers can exchange patches, needing nobody's consent but their own.

Licensing, infrastructure, everything else subordinate to this. If you can't do this, that technology is proprietary.



An idea for anyone with the time and energy required to moderate anything, here it goes: a blog open to anybody to post guest entries where blind users can post about everyday things achieved using tech. I imagine everything going there: somebody reading the screen of a washing machine using OCR or LLM's, somebody trying to teach others a folk song in a foreign language by jotting the lyrics down in a notepad app on an Android smartphone which crashed due to a bug; trying and succeeding or failing to book train tickets... you get the idea. Make it variet, make it international, make it interesting, modern or retrospective. Goals: 1. To motivate each other and show what is possible and what still needs solutions; 2. To evaluate which of the many technologies flowing through the market actually ended up being used and for what purpose; 3. To create an archive not just of what was available in the past but what was actually in use by people; 4. Perhaps to showcase to the wider audiences that Accessibility is not just a dull requirement to satisfy and actually helps end-users. Any takers? #Accessibility #Blind

iOS 18 can perform actions based on any voice command you set, even when your iPhone’s locked

Rough “toggle” guidelines:

1. Use `<button aria-pressed>` for immediate effect and when JS is known to exist:
adrianroselli.com/2019/08/unde…

2. Use a checkbox for submissions and when maybe no JS (PE):
adrianroselli.com/2019/03/unde…

3. Use either of above with `role="switch"` *only* when it will *never* have an indeterminate state:
adrianroselli.com/2021/10/swit…

4. Avoid Apple’s proposed `switch` attribute for now (anchor link):
adrianroselli.com/2021/10/swit…

Adjust as appropriate.

Uvedomiť sa až po kritike od ľudí mi teda nepríde veľmi úprimné a skôr len také na oko, že to museli urobiť, lebo videli, že im to môže ublížiť. Ak by to nechceli robiť, tak to nerobia. A ak by to aj urobili a prišlo im to zlé, tak sa uvedomia sami, nie až po kritike.

awesome, how did you make the C# bindings? we could turn them official if you like.

we also have some ideas for autogenerating language bindings from the generated openrpc specification, but it wouldn't be as pretty as a handwritten/-maintained wrapper/rpc-client library.

in reply to treefit

@treefit Let me work on it a little while longer before I publish it. But basically I start the deltachat-rpc-server as a .NET Process and then write to and read from standard input and standard output.

I wonder what is the purpose of scanning an e-ticket on a stationary pole.

As far as I know there are no e-tickets which would start their validity after scanning them.




I've had 0 musical inspiration for months now. But this afternoon, I threw together this little sketch of a song about a lovely, lazy Brisbane autumn day with my kids. Very incomplete, including chunks of unwritten lyrics, but who knows whether it'll ever make it to a complete song, haha. files.jantrid.net/music/NthDeg…

A comment thread on Hacker News led me to this interesting article, published in 2002 but largely written in the late 90s, about education and software: theodoregray.com/BrainRot/ I wonder if their concerns about violence in video games are justified. Unlike, say, the author of Masters of Doom (which I've read), I have no vested interest in defending such games.

Huh, I never really considered all the downsides to tildes in URLs.

I’ll say though that it does have a lot of cultural relevance both historically (gooherholes and Web sites with tildes were common in academia) and today, and such communities don’t have to abandon their hallmarks for people with no interest in them. The “unfamiliar” argument doesn’t seem relevant, because it’s only unfamiliar to people who don’t use them.

The keyboard problems could also be reasons to avoid slashes or hyphens in URLs, though I don’t think people will be convinced. Sticking only to characters common across all keyboard layouts seems unreasonably limiting.

In Skandinavien ist man uns wieder einige Schritte voraus:

"In den nordischen Ländern wurde viel Arbeit geleistet, um moderne Parteien zu gründen und aufzubauen, die eine ambitionierte Umwelt- und Klimapolitik mit traditionellen linken Themen verknüpfen: Arbeitnehmerrechte, Investitionen in Sozialleistungen, gerechte Einkommensverteilung etcetera. Man kann hier wirklich sehen, dass sich die Linke verändert."

Resultat: die Verdrängung rechter Parteien

Winter:

with really poor discovery isn’t a long term proposition.


gemini://tilde.club/~winter/gemlog/2024/6-06.gmi

I wanna be a li’l cautious here.

Many times what’s seen as “good discovery” is promoting some posts at the expense of other posts, a zero-sum game where for every winner there’s a loser. For everyone who’s shouting the loudest, there’s someone else who got drowned out. That’s also one of the unethical aspects of SEO.

Now, there can be genuinely good organization of information and communities so that people do find what they’re looking for. Forums and groups are good examples of that. That’s fine.

What I hate is stuff like Mastodon’s explore tab. The way Mastodon (and clones like Akkoma) didn’t push posts algorithmically was one of the things I really loved about it.
