In-reply-to » Aha, my nickname at work now appears to be “Princess Garbage Disposal” (“Prinzessin Müllabfuhr”). 🤦‍♀️ 🥴

@bender@twtxt.net It started out as me calling myself “Princess Valium” because I’m so tired and braindead today, but then someone misheard that because a garbage truck drove by, and, so … one thing lead to another. 🤪 Sadly, it kind of fits, because I’m often the one who cleans up shit. 😬

@prologic@twtxt.net I do! I paginate usually 10 times on HN. Their algo is so messed up (but it works, I guess) that not doing that will make me miss a lot of good, interesting, things.

I join the tired masses. So tired, I slept through my alarm this morning (something that hasn’t happened for over 20 years, easily), and wife woke me up asking “Aren’t you going to work today?” So yeah, I could have slept for a while more this morning, for sure.

In-reply-to » @prologic @bender Thanks! Yeah, it already supports Twt Hash via twtxt-lib (both v1 and v2, when the time is right), plus most of the other features (multiline, user-agent, and metadata), and I'm working on (re-)implementing threading, mentions, and hash filtering (to make conversations easier to follow).

Nice work! Threading + mentions is where it gets fun 😅 Ping me if anything in the spec is unclear 👌

In-reply-to » Apologies to anyone who's seen an uptick in twtxt pings from me today... I've been working on shoe-horning my twtxt reader (TwtStrm) into my editor (TwtKpr, aka the express-twtkpr npm library), and it kind ran amok a few times. So again, sorry - I've added a minimum 10-minute cool-down period between pulls which should help (I hope 🙂).

Here’s a current snapshot of my local version, in case anyone is interested:

In-reply-to » I was wondering why all the twt hashes in my replies today were still so short. I was ahead of the times. The Twt Hash v2 Epoch only begins next month.

That reminds me, I need to update yarnd too. I haven’t done so yet 😅 Been so bloody busy with work 🥵

@itsericwoordward@itsericwoodward.com Haven’t noticed anything either. These request numbers are well below some other software. :-)

In-reply-to » @bender … boom, 5500+ hits on that blog post. 🤣 Should I start monetizing this shit?! 🤪 (Don’t worry, I won’t. German law gets super annoying if you do that kind of thing.)

It’s not that much traffic, of course. One hit per second on average. (Plus the images.) The nasty bots are much worse. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Interesting read! The current state is already a very great achievement. I felt honored being able to already have followed your development along here on twtxt. :-)

That’s a cool clock, I should remind myself of my working time, too.

@bender@twtxt.net The good thing is that it’s already pretty battle-tested. 😅 There was this dumpster fire a few years back: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31114554 This was on their front page for quite a while, just look at the number of comments … 😂

In-reply-to » (#tyakazq) @prologic that possible in any profession. Contrary to what @prologic's think, I don't think it is a human weakness. That some people are absolute and despicable assholes? Yep, I agree on that.

@bender@twtxt.net Yes, but I consider this to be a flaw in the human species. Think about it, what good does it serve? What possible reason do we have to have such traits today? Survival of the fitness? pffft 😅
