Nice.

Can someone lobby for CBOR.(de)serialize support in the browser? And native support to display CBOR as a JSON-like object for inspection?

if ddos attacks weren't a thing, peer-to-peer networks would be the absolute gold standard. no servers, it hardly gets any more cost-efficient sucks that the current ip address allocation system is the worst bureaucratic piece of garbage ever invented. it holds back efficient & privacy-friendly WAN

@lucia.red damn girl you got burned read bad there youtu.be/KrOBzFwVzwA?...

dockerfiles are the poor man's jail config file docs.freebsd.org/en/books/han...

friendly reminder for anyone reading who has one or more vps at ovh make sure to keep an eye on the new lineups from time to time, for ~30c more I'm currently upgrading one of my vps from the 2020 lineup to 4x the specs in the 2026 lineup

using chat apps like Slack leads too often to the assumption that note taking is useless, causing lots of info actually being lost to time: hard to find back, likely lacking context too we should rely on IRC more, and take proper notes. where has simple, efficient, distraction-free tech gone?

Alright that clearly lacked details that were clear in my head so here it is phrased better: What would be, for a handheld device about the size of a smartphone without a touch screen, the best way to integrate a way to type text onboard?

I mean One of these is tedious to read and takes way too many lines to write in order to acomplish any useful effect. The other is ASM.

I wonder what'd be the most ergonomic way to have a keyboard on a device that doesn't have one nor a touch screen on-screen with top/left/bottom/right physical buttons? sounds old and annoying but it's easy and cost-effective compared to other options I can think of... 🤔

hot take: the new tld (docs[.]new, sheets[.]new, repo[.]new, ...) was a mistake. Good luck arguing Google & big corps aren't proving themselves to be monopolies with these domains, using extremely generic names putting all competitors at a disadvantage even better: guess who introduced the tld... 🙃

its funny to me how people on twitter point at the political discourse happening on Bluesky to discredit it yeah sure there's untasteful takes on here, so what. it's a social network, people just Say Things. just block/mute them and move on, this is what a truly free platform looks like

Saved posts is another missed opportunity for improving the AT Protocol and the PDS concept by introducing private records

OPAQUE is a published RFC now ✨ datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc...

Ma fierté du week-end c'est d'avoir dégagé du zplace le logo d'un truc d'IA générative qui ose dire que c'est de l'art avec deux viewers du chat d'Etoiles Et d'avoir dégagé le logo d'une plateforme de cryptocoin pour mettre une trace d'une toute petite commu niche du zevent 🥹

proud owner of a ltt screwdriver and the precision bitset because might as well go all the way and the scribedriver because why not (it feels kinda nice in my tiny hands and it has LORE making it infinitely better than a regular pen)

people who code with AI are a joke and if you fit that descriptor I need you to understand that all of us actual programmers are making fun of you

they should invent sleep that actually feels restful

One thing that's been bothering me with atproto is the lack of clear data retention expectations For a lot of use-cases losing access to user-generated content can be a significant loss of knowledge, yet the canonical source of a user's data can disappear overnight without notice

Much like humans, CPUs heal in their sleep. 
CPUs are *technically* replaceable / wear items. They don’t last forever.
 Yet, the moment stress is removed, transistor degradation (partially) reverses. It's called Bias Temperature Instability (BTI) recovery:

is the evil version of the authenticated transfer protocol the unauthenticated transfer protocol?

i lost the game :(

private records on atproto PDSes when

elf is such a funny format, wdym you're wrapping my 79 bytes of x86 machine code and its 14 bytes of associated data in a 3251 bytes container

Hm so even after fixing my silly mistake, turns out my handwritten impl is still more efficient than LLVM's, and 11b smaller 🤔 Some registers are used despite always being moved to another register that was already available I wonder if Rust's checks that have been optimized away are involved

Nooooo the 45mm versions of the Pixel Watch don't come in Gold Champagne variant (neither does the metal mesh wristband) 😭😭💔

It's kinda insane how if you really love Programming you should probably not go into the current software development industry because you are certainly not gonna be doing enough Programming to be content with your life.

💡 Did you know that Rollup supports JSX out-of-the-box nowadays? 👀 With whitespace being handled much better since version 4.48.1 it should be a viable option for transforming JSX 🎉 rollupjs.org/repl/?versio...

BSD MENTIONED IN LAST FRAMEWORK 16 ANNOUNCEMENT VIDEO LFG

me: why llvm sucks at generating code, just use the volatile registers don't push to stack that much >:( the three call instructions looking at me with a slight smile: hellooooooo 🐢💥

I'm quite annoyed by how that "one-port-does-it-all" is at the polar opposite of a safe-by-design system. If I plug my device to an outlet, there should not be ANY data connection, only power... Headphone jacks are also better because the way it works reduces greatly the risk of hostile hardware

Google sucks for many things but man I feel like there's nothing as good as Pixel devices Surprisingly unencumbered software (see Graphene), price-wise not as competitive as back in the Pixel 3 days though, but commitment to updates... I might give in and buy myself the upcoming Pixel Watch 🤔

Every single USB-C cable I've owned ended up only working in one orientation and not the other, the standard is a MESS, finding cables that don't suck at a correct price is close to impossible Can we admit USB-C is a failure? Being the least bad doesn't make it good 😩

On this day in 2001, Windows XP was released to manufacturing.

I never took the time to actually hack with the NT kernel, and I've been neck deep in it for the last two weeks or so It's quite an interesting piece of tech, and it's really not a bad kernel. It makes me even more sad seeing the not-so-great use of it made by the Windows operating system on top

My take on IPv6 is that it's fantastic for Internet-wide addressing where you mostly never interact with addresses thanks to DNS But for local networks IPv4 shines because it's a lot easier for humans to deal with. 4 numbers up to 255 vs 8 hex values up to 65535 (!)

We should start discriminating more based on kiki-bouba-ness If we're going to discriminate might as well pick a criteria that MATTERS! 😡 @kiki-bouba.mozzius.dev

It's kind of a bummer that Intel implemented instructions dedicated to moving chunks of data (i.e. memmove as an x86 op) but that it's quite significantly slower than a naïve loop of 4 unrolled SSE2 movdqa

Bluesky's kinda based for just outright not providing service rather than collecting IDs in the mississippi Privacy endangering policies shouldn't be implemented

If it wasn't because I'm lazy and enjoy/use 100% connectivity everywhere & anywhere, I'd just not have a phone plan at all. Wi-Fi is sufficient to so many people. With even FB Messenger and WhatsApp being E2EE, there's simply no reason to still rely on an infrastructure actively hostile towards us!

just another g*u hate post because it's impossible to understate that the g stands for GARBAGE

Here is a random unsolicited reminder that mobile carriers have the ability to locate any mobile device with an accuracy of just a few centimeters, regardless of whether a SIM card is in use or not. As long as it's not in airplane mode, the almost-exact physical position of the device is exposed.

People finding out that the EU doesn't care in the slightest about consumers rights or privacy is funny They never cared, they just have a vendetta against the US and it happened to align with popular demand. So they took advantage of it Not funny now that it doesn't align anymore does it 😉

Opening a YouTube video in a private window makes it load THREE times: an automatic reload for no apparent reason and another after accepting cookies. YT Shorts are instantly full of AI-generated porn mixed with really weird and/or borderline gore AI slop. Such a great platform it has become... :)
