@prologic@twtxt.net Would that allow screensharing? The idea is to screenshare.

This is pretty cool. I like the link idea. Gives me an idea about pining twits I think are important.

this Nayib Bukele guy is pissing off all of the incumbent parties in El Salvador with his Nuevas Ideas party. i love it. mi mama es salvadoreña y me gustaría poder vivir ahí. tengo competências en competências sistemas de software y varios otros asuntos técnicos. gano bien y me encantaría participar en la economía salvadoreña. el problema es que soy lesbiana y uso el canabis (y otras plantas medicinales) por razones médicos y religiosos. no se se seria aceptada. tal vez haya otro modo para participar..

What am I doing and why am I doing it, I have no idea. Today is one of those days.

No, I’m still doing them manually. 🤣🤦🏻 But I do think they are a good idea and will be adding them, I just haven’t gotten around to finding a compatible implementation of the hash yet.

this entertainment news stream that i’ve been working on has served the dual-purpose of giving me more information to work with to point out systemic flaws that nobody will ever admit exist. i think using an entertainment medium to talk about these ideas is good because its never going to be about winning an argument. we are presenting information in a fun way for the sake of education. a lot of western people are (possibly intentionally) ignorant of their genocidal history and practices that often continue to this day. there is a lot of injustice propping up western hegemony that must be answered for. there is a lot of organizing to do to provide adequate resources to the people that western culture continually treads on. to bring back the beauty that the white man keeps trying to burn down, suppress, or kill in the name of economic progress. https://www.twitch.tv/LeftistsFiteLeftists

Good idea. Plan 9 sets $NPROC on boot to the number of cores, so other things can use it. mk will dispatch things in just that way.

If [you take] a look at how APLers communicate when they have ideas, you see code all the time, all day long. The APL community is the only one I’ve seen that regularly can write complete code and talk about it fluently on a whiteboard between humans without hand waving. Even my beloved Scheme programming language cannot boast this. When working with humans on a programming task, almost no one uses their programming languages that primary communication method between themselves and other humans outside of the presence of a computer. That signals to me that they are not, in fact, natural, expedient tools for communicating ideas to other humans. The best practices utilized in most programming languages are, instead, attempts to ameliorate the situation to make the code as tractable and as manageable as possible, but they do not, primarily, represent a demonstration of the naturalness of those languages to human communication. — aaron hsu

using borg over s3fs might have been a bad idea?

We welcome prospective students to submit their own ideas, but we’ve got a page full of suggestions: http://p9f.org/wiki/gsoc-2021-ideas/index.html

9front sysupdate is running since like 12h ago. compiling an OS on rpi is maybe not the greatest idea, but i’m doing it anyway

With the finger server specifically? No idea, it’s a toy. I’d honestly forgotten I had it on until someone mentioned finger.farm and I was inspired to poke at it again.

@prologic@twtxt.net @anth Sounds like a good idea. The hash to conv/search url should stay local to a pod.

@prologic@twtxt.netFor example, this should work (no idea if it does).

@prologic@twtxt.net that would be an interesting idea. I think your current spec of using an SMTP proto is probably best for DM.

but having a federation of IRC servers would be interesting for realtime twt propagation.

@prologic@twtxt.net sounds about right. I tend to try to build my own before pulling in libs. learn more that way. I was looking at using it as a way to build my twt mirroring idea. and testing the lex parser with a wide ranging corpus to find edge cases. (the pgp signed feeds for one)

@prologic@twtxt.net the add function just scans recursivley everything.. but the idea is to just add and any new mentions then have a cron to update all known feeds

@xuu@txt.sour.is Are you interested in getting on Signal and swapping contact details and such so we can discuss some ideas in collaboration in more real-time? You have great ideas, I think we could benefit from a bit more real(ish) time 😀

@prologic@twtxt.net after stewing on it. I really like the idea of a wiki. throw it on the roadmap after DMs 😆

@prologic@twtxt.net My thoughts on it being if they switched from a different way of hosting the file or multiple locations for redundancy..

I have an idea of using something like SRV records where they can define weighted url endpoints to reach.

@prologic@twtxt.net I have some ideas to improve on twtxt. figure I can contribute some. 😁 bit more work and it will almost be a drop in replacement for ParseFile

Kinda wish types.Twt was an interface. it’s sooo close.

@lucidiot@tilde.town [re: abandoned ideas] Thanks for the inspiration! How do you keep track of projects now? Do you know about TaskWarrior?

@kas@enotty.dk Thanks for the suggestion using Keybase. Playing around with the authenticity idea.

@von@tilde.town having topic-specific twtxt feeds is not a silly idea. Not sure if the clients allow easy switching though.

@kas@enotty.dk twtxt.txt file splitting for achival is an interesting idea. Should not need to be yearly only. High volume feeds could split faster. Needs a spec though.

This kinda gets back to Ted Nelson’s idea of copy and paste: https://speare.com

I came across the idea of a Book of Shadows and, with benefit of ignorance, compared it to the idea of a personal wiki.

@kas@enotty.dk I liked the idea that the reader’s client should enforce the length limit.
