@BrodieOnLinux Honestly I love being a raccoon digging through dumpsters. I have years of experience lf finding all the good pizza and sometimes I find beans that are still unopened in a can. Usually I need to smash it with a rock (read through source code) to get at them though. 🦝

See if I transpile everything to common lisp it'll be easier to do code analysis for tracibility accross data pipelines and programming langiages.

@olm_e @tezoatlipoca @SyndicWill Yeah federation is a great step and pretty pragmatic. Personally I think it is still not enough because it requires somelne to foot the bill for servers and places control/responsibility over communities into the hands of a few sysadmin nerds. I am a sysadmin nerd but I don't like that my existence could make or break an instance.

My hot take is I kinda like the marketing stuff corpos do for april fools. The razor gaming chair tentacles were fun.

@fleeky Sadly no. It was announced back in Feb. https://hubs.mozilla.com/labs/sunset/

@tezoatlipoca It just happens that tech as a whole is very cloud-brained right now. 😅

@tezoatlipoca I mean to be fair the Hubs team has done so much better a job at this than any proprietary platform. I think what they did makes sense in their context. For one they've been making it easy to self host a hubs instance and are working on tools and docs for folks to pull their data down and onto their self hosted instances.

The #Mozilla #Hubs shutdown is also exactly why communities should be investing in #p2p tooling. Had they gone with a fully distributed model there would be no central service to close and the communities using it could have kept doing so regardless of Mozillas involvement. Instead they went "cloud native" and initially relied on a specific cloud platform which basically locks everyone into a final shutdown regardless of who "owns" the cloud.

What's the point of getting Youtube Premium when all the good youtube channels shove "sponsor messages" into their videos anyway.

@nilix Ty! Yeah I hope to use the underlying library for some sort of open source ActivityPub or Semantic Web exploring thing in the future

@nilix it's a synthetic dataset showing links between data. so nothing real but showing that the format we're using works how we expect. Sadly beyond that it's NDA stuff I can't post about. 😅

Flexing my data visualization and traversal muscles.

@brandon That's great! Is there code published for it which I may read? I do a lot of cross platform stuff and that's something I've wanted for a while. I assume graphics isn't within the set of APIs?
