I really, really can’t say enough positive things about server-side Swift. I literally had no backend experience before this year, but I decided to write the entire backend for AltStore PAL in Swift and after some initial hiccups (*cough* URLSession *cough*) it’s been remarkably smooth sailing. Plus I can still use Xcode to develop everything & cross-compile for Linux!

If you’ve been wanting to experiment with server-side Swift, there’s really no better time to start swift.org/documentation/server…

Every time I have to deal with the libatspi C API, I want to bang my head repeatedly against the desk. The Python bindings around it moved from a "we're writing static bindings so might as well make them more idiomatic" to a big "let's fix the C API" layer, but nobody is fixing the C API because that would require breaking backward compatibility.

I'm not even going to touch the fact that it took more than 10 years to get the RPC interfaces to match the implementation…

These #InternationalStudents Wanted #Citizenship. #Canada Killed That Dream.

As Canada tries to staunch an overflow of temporary #immigration, tens of thousands of international students and recent grads may be forced to leave the country. Here are their stories.

#CDNpoli

in reply to Ms. Que Banh

"For example, I’m developing a device for newborn care that monitors infants’ body temperature, skin colour, eye colour, weight and heart rate, among other factors, to track their health, particularly during those critical first few weeks of life. It could save lives. Think of how many other students have ideas and skills we can’t even imagine yet.

That’s why it’s so disheartening to hear some Canadians talk about international students like we’re parasites. I pay about $12,000 per semester in tuition—far more than Quebec residents do. I have a campus job as a kitchen supervisor to cover my expenses, and I live in a small two-bedroom apartment with a roommate. People like me are not responsible for Canada’s problems. But we can help solve them, contributing to the country’s cultural diversity, its economy, its innovation and its growth. And by bridging gaps between nations, we help build a more inclusive society for everyone."

Why does this silly homework system insist on having at least one question a week like this?
is there a visual thing to learn, as a teen here, that actually writing "2.146". wouldn't provide?
It bothered me as a kid myself having to 'feel' analogue clocks, but I don't see interpreting the number in this way is any different to reading it from a screen in the first place?


So, stupid question. Does anyone know where the heck the Startup folder is in Windows 10? I can't remember.

exercise
I used to think that push-ups with handles for max extension, and with a heavy backpack, were peak upper-body but renegade rows trade some chest engagement for heavy lat engagement. and oh boy do they hit hard. In fairness, I’m newer to lat workouts so they’re probably a bigger bottleneck. i do both but i’m wondering which Fedi prefers.

re: exercise

I used to do a pull-push split but now I usually do two splits. My primary split is an upper- and lower-body split. I split arm and torso/back concentration on alternate upper-body days.

on leg day, I can only do 7 or so sufficiently hard exercises with the limited equipment I have so I don’t bother splitting.

So it’s three sets of exercises. Every upper-body day mixes pulling and pushing but every muscle group only hits 100% once every 3-4 days.

re: exercise

@gekitsu The reason I do this is partly because I don’t really have equipment to do a lot of push-based exercises. Our bed isn’t heavy; if I face away from my bed when I do a push exercise with resistance bands, I tend to drag the bed. No bench makes it hard to do presses with full motion.

Trying different variations of push-ups (elbows in/out, narrow/wide) seems my best bet for pushing right now (but I’m open to ideas!)

I'm still not sure how I feel about haptic trackpads on laptops. It's a mixed bag. For one, the ability to disable it completely from within Windows Trackpad options is nifty, then it just turns into a slab of pressable glass under your keyboard which has a slight spring to it. Ha.
On the downside, though, every time the speaker is at louder volume (and this laptop has 4, so I assume it's the bottom-facing wufers causing this,) the inside of the trackpad make a slight raddle sound, sort of like the old BrailleNote classics did with their singular speakers raddling the Braille pins, you know? OK, you probably don't, but either way it's not pleasant. Placing my hand over the trackpad will stop the noise, and again it's very slight and only at louder volumes, but still. The downside to a haptic trackpad.

Hallo @Friendica Support ,
meine Instanz dica.interfel.de liefert seit vorhin Err 504 Gateway Time-out zurück.
Sie liegt bei Uberspace und der DNS-Eintrag funktioniert offenbar.
Die Datenbank scheint auch ok, ich habe gerade erfolgreich ein Backup davon erstellt.
Konsole und Performance auf der Konsole, Quota usw sind ok.

Die einzige Änderung der letzten Monate ist die Aktivierung des Addons Bluesky. Es lief bis gestern Abend sauber und hat drei Accounts von Bluesky in meine Timeline integriert. Mehr nicht.

Habe als erste Maßnahme gerade auf der Konsole versucht, das Addon zu deaktivieren, aber der entsprechende Befehl scheint das Addon nicht zu finden:
[... bin]$ console addon disable bluesky
[Error] Addon nicht gefunden

Der Befehl zum Auflisten aller aktiven Addons liefert auch nur eine leere Liste:
[... bin]$ ./console addon list enabled
+------+---------+
| Name | Enabled |
+------+---------+
| | |
+------+---------+

Gibt es irgendwelche Ideen dazu, was ich tun kann?

in reply to SoNak

Du musst die Kommandos immer vom Basisordner aufrufen, d.h. bin/console ...
in reply to Michael Vogel

Ah, okay, danke Dir.

So funktioniert schon mal der 'disable bluesky'-Befehl - zumindest kommt keine Fehlermeldung.
./bin/console list enabled wirft allerdings die gesamte Liste aller Addons raus, obwohl ich nur einige wenige aktiviert habe.

Der '504' kommt immer noch. Es ist die Friendica 2024.06.

Kann ich über die Konsole irgendwie einen relevanten Status herausfinden?
./bin/console maintenance 1 bzw 0 funktioniert übrigens einwandfrei.

in reply to SoNak

Ich hoffe, dass Du das Protokoll aktiviert hast. Da kann man eigentlich immer ganz gut sehen, ob das System Probleme hat.
in reply to Michael Vogel

Leider kein Protokoll mehr, nachdem die Instanz seit langem unauffällig lief.
Kann ich das Protokoll (trotz "Ich hoffe...") manuell irgendwo einschalten?
in reply to SoNak

Ich glaube, dass man das per Konsolenkommando machen kann, aber ich kann im Moment nicht nachschauen.
in reply to Michael Vogel

Der Fehler ist behoben, aber das Konsolenkommando zum Einschalten des Friendica-Protokolls wäre bei Gelegenheit trotzdem von Interesse.
So für das Befehls-Archiv.


Fehler offenbar behoben :-)

Habe aufgrund Deines Hinweises mal das PHP-Log von Uberspace aktiviert. Das dauerte sehr lange und hatte schon durchs Einschalten dutzende ERRORs im sehr langen Logfile.
Dann auf die PHP-Version auf 8.1 umgestellt und erneut das PHP-Log aktiviert. Drei Zeilen im Log und "ready to handle connections".

Laut History war zuvor PHP 8.0 aktiviert und war wohl Ursache des Problems. Irgendetwas muss vergangene Nacht bei Uberspace verändert worden sein.

Die Instanz läuft nun wieder erwartungsgemäß und Deine Hilfe bei der Konsole hat mich auf die Spur gebracht.
Vielen vielen Dank dafür!


in reply to SoNak

@SoNak @Michael Vogel gaaaz simpel ;-)

bin/console config system debugging zeigt den aktuellen Wert der Einstellung an, 0 bedeutet kein logging, 1 bedeutet logging. Wenn du den gewünschten Wert als vierten Parameter übergibts änderst du die aktuelle Einstellung, also zum Aktivieren des Protokollierens bin/console config system debugging 1.

in reply to SoNak

...auch im Maintenance-Mode kommt der '504'.
Dann liegt das Problem wohl woanders, oder?
in reply to SoNak

Ohne Protokolle ist das ein Herumstochern im Nebel.

in reply to Bionk

Das war zwar wirklich herumstochern im Nebel, aber oft reichen grobe Indizien, um ein Problem einzugrenzen. Von Beginn an war da das Gefühl, es liegt in der Infrastruktur begründet. Daher auch zunächst die Tests bezüglich DNS, Quota usw.

Es brauchte nur den passenden Funken - Logfiles. Ich arbeite einfach zu selten auf dieser Ebene, um von selbst darauf gekommen zu sein.

Zeit für den zweiten Versuch eines Liberapay-Kontos. Hatte bei einem früheren Versuch 2021 keine Einzahlung hinbekommen oder einfach das Prinzip nicht verstanden.

Real time collaboration software and text boxes that rapidly save drafts to the cloud essentially log your fingerprintable typing behavior. The industry refers to this information as “keystroke dynamics” or “typing biometrics”.

Other modern “operator signatures” are easier to minimize. A user can learn to obfuscate writing style, or can use keyboard navigation with different pointing devices to limit fingerprinting of mouse behavior.

Keystroke biometrics are difficult to anonymize without installing software such as kloak or browser extensions (the latter of which may add fingerprintable vectors) designed to cloak some of your typing habits. Signature typos, approximate typing speed, etc. will still leak. Alternatively, we could normalize typing messages out in a simple offline editors that don’t store revision history before pasting them into other input fields.

Absinthe is back, says The Observer. The emerald spirit – beloved by “history’s most bohemian creatives, from Oscar Wilde to Vincent van Gogh” – was nicknamed the “green fairy” thanks to its supposed hallucinatory properties (possibly something to do with its whopping 70% alcohol content). In 1915, French officials banned the drink for almost a century, but an EU rule change overturned the ban, and in recent years the harsh-tasting liqueur has become something of a staple at in-the-know bars.
in reply to Col

Me and a few friends had a night on the absinthe once.

One thing we noticed was that it made us incredibly flatulent. Being the mature grownups we were at the time, we decided it'd be funny to let rip into jars, and seal them up.

Anyway, next day, in my jar, there was a tiny motorbike- a replica of the CRF1100L Africa Twin.

Unbelievably, this is a common occurrence, and all the bikes came from the same manufacturer.

Turns out that absinthe makes the fart grow Honda.

Continuing on my journey to switch to Windows Terminal, I want my various terminals to have separate pinned icons on the taskbar so I can get to each one quickly with Windows+number. Nothing I do seems to allow me to do this. There are command line arguments to focus a specific tab in a specific window, but that doesn't help with the initial launch where you need to specify a command line. This all worked just fine with conhost and various shortcuts. 😩
in reply to Jamie Teh

I found a very ugly, not at all intuitive way to do it:
1. Create a shortcut which starts the terminal with the desired command line, specifying a unique window name with the -w option; e.g.:
wt -w wsl wsl.exe ~
2. Create another shortcut which focuses the first tab in the same window name; e.g.:
wt -w wsl ft -t 0
3. Pin the second shortcut to the taskbar, but not the first. You can then delete the second shortcut from wherever you created it if you like.
4. When you want to launch it, you'll have to use the first shortcut. However, once launched, you can use the pinned taskbar shortcut to switch to it.
in reply to Jamie Teh

It took me a while just to figure out how to create a simple shortcut to open a specific Windows Terminal - mainly so that I could open a WSL Terminal at a specific folder without navigating to it.

I tested pinning one of those just now, but as you note, my shortcut doesn't manage new vs multiple tab instances.

Windows Terminal keeps improving and sometimes surprises me as I continue to learn more neat things about it, but it definitely still has some awkward quirks!

"In his new book, Supercommunicators, the journalist Charles Duhigg writes that one of the most common sources of conflicts in relationships is when partners don’t agree on the type of conversation they’re having. Some conversations are practical: Let’s solve a problem together. Others are emotional: Let’s talk about and understand our feelings. Many fights mistake practical for emotional conversations, and vice versa."
