In-reply-to » @dfaria Sorry this has pissed you off so much (unintentional) -- Also why the irrational outburst?! 😱 That's no way to have discourse or help improve anything 🤦‍♂️

@bender@twtxt.net You don’t know me and you’re already making arbitrary judgments about me. I only got upset because they didn’t warn me that they were going to block my domain. Nobody likes being canceled without warning. There were other civilized ways of letting me know that there was a problem with my domain instead of blocking it unilaterally. Bye-bye!

@bender@twtxt.net I guess all I can do is unblock the domain and sit down and rethink the “Discover” view’s design and behavior? hmmm 🧐 Alternatively, build a new yarnd 2.0? as a single-user pod only?

@bender I never see problems on my end, so I suspect this has to be Cloudflare doing this occasionally. I’ll have to poke around there again. At least I have a close enough timestamp :D Maybe message me your IP and approximate timestamp?

In-reply-to » I think multi-user pods were a mistake.

@prologic now, the mention of multiuser pods brought an idea. What if you design, and code, single user pods that are extremely lean (extremely low processor, memory, and storage footprint), and brutally minimalist?

@prologic “let it go, Indiana”. Evidently Assistant Professor Faria can’t—or doesn’t want to—engage in civil discourse. Using Her Majesty’s proper: fuck it!

In-reply-to » Been clearing out my pod a bit and blocking unwanted domains that are basically either a) just noise and/or b) are just 1-way (whose authors never reply or are otherwise unaware of the larger ecosystem)

If you have ideas for improvement we’re all ears 👂

@dfaria Cancelling is a strong word. I’d you follow your other feed yourself it’s still visible to you!

This whole exercise just reenforces that the idea of the “Discover” view was and is a terrible idea. 😢

In-reply-to » Gentoo bands use of “AI” tools Gentoo, the venerable Linux distribution which in my headcanon I describe as ‘classy’, has banned any use of “AI”. A proposal by Gentoo Council member Michał Górny from February of this year banning it use has been unanimously accepted by the Gentoo Council. The new policy reads: It is expressly forbidden to contribute to Gentoo any content that has been created with the assistance of Natural Language Processing artificial intelligence tools. This motion can be revisited, ... ⌘ Read more

@osnews@feeds.twtxt.net

We’ll have to see how this policy will be implemented, but I like that Gentoo is willing to take a stand.

Me too😅

In-reply-to » @lyse Oh my god, that sounds just as awful. Yes, that really makes you want to quit. Such a waste of time and energy. It’s really dangerous for one’s mental health as well, burnout is lurking just around the corner.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha 🤣 I saw this too and immediately thought

I have to stop using Terraform

🤣

In-reply-to » Hmmm the feeds service needs some kind of deduping 🤔 Slashdot seems to be the most frequent culprit 🙄 For example #oc2vksa and #wbx7ioq

@mckinley I’m not sure to be honest I think it’s just a straight up duplicate post. This actually does happen, it’s not a bug, it’s a “human problem”, but yeah it’s annoying, so it’s making me want to figure out a way of keeping some kind of similarity db to strip duplicates out like this.

In-reply-to » @lyse it seems you don’t have a decent UPS with surge protection. Invest in one! We have one everywhere there is a constantly-used valuable appliance in the house, including refrigerator.

Oh wow that’s a lot of UPS(es) 🤣

In-reply-to » I am supposed to come to office today, but I have caught the same cold bug wife has had for the last three days, so I am staying remote to spare cube-mates. Nose stuck, dripping, and a general slight sense of malaise is what I am feeling right now.

Thank you very much, everyone!

@prologic thanks mate! I am trying to isolate, wearing masks at home, and washing hands constantly, to see if kid can be spared.
