Quick new post about making the headings of HTML tables "sticky":

Survived six meetings and 8 context switches and all I got was this stupid t-shirt.

One of the neat innovations of the is that instead of having a large central instance database everyone pulls from for their clients, each user has a personal database of just the things they got sent. From there they can pull data from people they follow and replies using the ActivityPub client-server API. This means that the data you see has a higher social context to who you interact with rather than a grab bag of whatever folks throw onto the global timeline.

Maybe the real ActivityPub compliance suite is the friends we made along the way.

evil thoughts re: spam 

One cool thing is that you don't need to set up a mastodon instance in order to run a spam campaign. If anyone wants to give me a million bucks I could whip up a tool that'd require fedi as a whole to go allowlist.

Context switching so fast it blurs into a single context.

Own your identity, own your data!

DScan v4.0 leverages Web3Storage's w3up-client, incorporating #DIDs and #UCAN to create a robust framework for decentralized authentication and authorization.

DScan is the fastest way to store and share data over #IPFS directly from browsers.

Make no mistake, the massive layoffs are intentional SHORT TERM sabotage by business decision makers with the goal of LONG TERM benefits for them.

They're trying to drive down the costs of labor. Specifically, they're firing everyone so that we'll accept lower wages upon rehire.

In #infosec, this will backfire on them.

By firing everyone, the level of security technical debt will increase that they'll have to hire everyone AND THEN SOME back at even higher rates.

So. Neat. Fucking great.

In the mean time, research how to create unions. Start doing so. Tech folks and infosec are not used to needing collective bargaining. You need it now.

Learn about the concepts of Economic Leverage and how it works as an individual contributor and when that fails how Collective Leverage works. The whole "if you fire that one person, we all quit" sort of thing works.

You all hack systems every day. You all study Social Engineering and combat it every day.

Hack the labor market. Socially engineer our mutual protection.

Unsure how to prioritize management and strategy decisions when most of my time is spent writing code and abswering emails 💀

I beg of you, web site designers, just let me scroll through a page and stop trying to make my scroll-wheel the hand-crank of your obnoxious hurdy-gurdy of a marketing presentation

sam is not here :neofox_flag_lesbian: にゃん :therian:

every new user being shocked that DMs aren’t actually private is kinda scary because it means that everybody just assumes DMs on other platforms are private

because they aren’t. the only difference between fedi and other social media is that fedi admins don’t have a vested interest in making you think DMs are private

Thinking about how to add memory to an

Might be good to have two models running in tandem. One is trained to use a memory API. The other is just the personality. Before the personality gets data, memory decides if it wants to do some RAG queries. Then the result is fed to personality to respond with without it needing to understand memory. Then memory asks itself if it needs to remember any of personality's outputs.

Neat article my coworker found about some of the limitations of LLMs and so called (generative AI?).

What Apple is going to do to PWAs in less than two weeks in the EU is dastardly.

Their goal is to remove the only versions of Push, Fullscreen, Homescreen Icons, and Badging that didn't require paying them to be in the App Store *and make sure no other browser can have them either*.

They tried to sneak it under the noise of the alt-store drama, in a clearly premeditated fashion.

It's no exaggeration to say they've gone to war with the web & we don't owe the benefit of the doubt ever again.

K sleep time. Tuesday nights are a sacrifice to the Productivity Gods for this month. If I do well enough I can steer myself back to a 4 day work week within a couple months.

Suuuper rough sketch for anyone interested. Basically we'll have a list of accounts you follow in localStorage, then ingest their outboxes into this. Then we'll set up fully p2p identities and use the as another source to ingest stuff like followers only posts and replies from people you don't follow.

Music to review code to. 🤓

Bouta start a new database for client side indexing of ActivityPub data and making user curated timelines that much easier.

Gotta actively remind myself people prefer powers of 10 or at least multiples of 25. :P

I remember when a user of one of my past gigs was baffled that I was loading 128 items on a page. Sometimes I forget general people basically never think about powers of two.
