God I don't want to work today. I just want to be cozy in bed and listening to a spooky podcast or something.

Sadly I need to instead do end to end testing of distributed publishing workflows and make sure it's all working by Thursday. 😓

@cuaxolotl @garbados I think a pivotal point in me understanding systemic injustice and how tech+science can be blind to it was reading Seeing Like A State. It's a really good read IMO.

We'll know the has finally made it to the mainstream when we start seeing screenshots of posts on people's Instagram reels.

i think in general i feel that software developers are not meaningful innovators, or rather, i do not trust them to come up with a reliable encoding for a system (reputation) that whole disciplines have studiously avoided encoding because of its fluidity and relativity. so when a dev says to me, "we don't need more mods, we just need TrustPoints (TM)" i get very skeptical

@ninabreznik @heapwolf @lutindiscret The main difference is that you'd need to run the js versions of most modules and replace hyperswarm with something socket-specific

It's amazing that database queries work at all given how groady some of the join pyramids people use are.

is powerful as hell but the evil magic that goes into making it possible is pretty intense.

@fleeky @cblgh @mntmn IIRC I saw folks using the power packs from drills to power their cyberdecks.

Yes I am in fact procrastinating on the fediverse instead of updating the budget / timeline of this grant. :P

Does have a spec for communities to expose their combined timeline?

I think that would be super cool to combine with indexing where you could follow entire instances by lazily querying data from their timline index on the fly instead of needing to load everything on your server first.

Playing really helped put the fedi into context for me.

They did a good job of giving the aesthetic of random trolls and blogs on the internet just kinda existing in their tiny communities.

It helps that they have a 90's/00's retro aesthetic, but it's pretty much just a more exaggerated version of what we have now.

@lutindiscret I think @heapwolf had the right take. GunDB has a data model and a replication protocol that's pretty useful for graphs and "subscribing to data", but it's networking layer could use some more love since it's mostly servers and WebRTC at the moment. Socket would be a good way to make it work over local networks and have a nice path for deploying the app to mobile/desktop.

Main thing I learned from shopping around for instances is that there's a lot of cool color schemes and themes on the fediverse and that isn't reflected in the feeling of browsing fedi from a client.

it'd be cool if we had a spec to add a background/font style to let people express themselves more openly.

Yikes, the fedi do be a bit spicy if you get out of the higher trust+moderation use case.

I think my comfort so far has been from mostly following professionals that I kinda know already

Graham Sutherland / Polynomial

did you know you can infer what version of Windows an executable was built on (or at least what version of the Windows SDK was targeted) by how many fields its load configuration directory has?

the structure remained unchanged from WinXP, until Win8.1 Update 3 when they added new fields for Control Flow Guard support. the same fields were used in the initial Win10 release (version 1507)

the structure was iteratively expanded in versions 1511, 1607, 1703, 1709, 1803, 1809, 21H1, 21H2, and 22H2.

@cuaxolotl Wow, are you running your own server software? Jeeze I really want to make my own now too

@cuaxolotl Omg your instances style is amazing. I wish that was shown by mastodon clients!

Honestly spinning off another individual instance feels like less cognitive overhead for me 😨 So many choices
