@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org a fine birb

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net so, warum/darum is what you’re saying

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org stay safe online!!!

whew!

@prologic summer and the morning? it’s winter and dark night here!

Twitter is 4channing fast. Letting the worst of the previously-banned far right back on, suspending or permanently banning activists and journalists.

@prologic very nice!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org 20.jpg and the train pics are 👌!

@movq@uninformativ.de I think I like that choice? Not sure yet since I haven’t tried using it for anything real. I do like the fact that it doesn’t introduce a bunch of weird files to your repository that you then have to worry about managing.

@prologic it’s hilarious that it’s called “semantic” web when nobody knows what it really means (“semantic” being the word for “meaning”)

@prologic@twtxt.net @mckinley I can’t pretend to understand the guts since I just found it and only tinkered with it for a few minutes. But I can say that git bug push did this:

remote: Updating references: 100% (1/1)           
To $REPO
remote: Updating references: 100% (1/1)        19cf0dc6b52363cf5b8032755b16a5 -> refs/identities/af97ed38e619cf0dc6b52363cf5b8032755b16a5remote: Updating references: 100% (1/1)           
To $REPO
 * [new reference]   refs/bugs/00fd29b9f50294a64ad72c039a7340b5863d7907 -> refs/bugs/00fd29b9f50294a64ad72c039a7340b5863d7907

So it puts stuff in $DIR/.git/refs. It creates a cache directory too.

I have to say, it’s surprisingly full-featured given that it’s pre 1.0 and the main author warns that there be dragons here (though not so surprising given that there are over 2,000 commits!). You can do the entire create/label/comment on/push/pull/clear bug workflow entirely on the CLI with git subcommands, which is how I’d probably use it were I to adopt this. The webui looks remarkably like github/gitea/etc if you’re into that.

looks like it’s written in go, @prologic

git-bug

Distributed, offline-first bug tracker embedded in git, with bridges

Interesting!

@marado wow this is pretty horrifying. I didn’t realize it was becoming more common

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @darch@neotxt.dk it really is a great idea!

@eaplmx hahaha 😆

@eaplmx hmm, that’s interesting. Many cell phone plans here include unlimited SMS free and a fair number of people use them still, at least among Old People like me.

@mckinley exactly!

@darch@neotxt.dk yes, you used to be able to tweet through SMS. I actually did that a few times, long ago! It can be handy at times

An only 50% joking idea: an SMS gateway to post twts/yarns

@prologic Tuesday wtf!!!!

An excellent watch, in my opinion. I feel she traces the history of some of the computer science/AI, at least the parts I’m familiar with myself, quite well.

Teresa Heffernan: Artificial Intelligence and the (Post-)Apocalyptic Imaginary

given all that’s happened, if you’re still on Twitter after apartheid Clyde reinstates The Traitor’s account, I have no kind words for you.

I just posted on LinkedIn:

Dear “AI” people,

Stop doing this shit. Just stop. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/11/after-controversy-meta-pulls-demo-of-ai-model-that-writes-scientific-papers/

Love,
An AI person

I’d also argue that not having varied and robust controls like blocking will be an impediment to adoption. there are populations on the internet who are relentlessly harassed, and they will simply avoid using your tech (and probably will never tell you either) if you don’t give them the tools to cut off the harassment. “being a woman on the internet” is not a joke, it’s horrible.
