I wonder what the movers must think of me. They’ve already moved a PowerMac G5, a PowerBook G4. More than one box with a laserdisc player.
なるほどセクター
今日は、としぁさんの128 GiB /bootの件について、/bootに256 MiB割り当てようとして「256M」と入力したらディスクマネージャーから256 Miセクター（セクターはディスク内部の記憶容量の単位。伝統的に1セクターは512バイトを意味するが、現代のコンシューマー向けHDD・SSDでは1セクターが4096バイトを意味する。）と解釈されて256 × 1024 × 1024 × 512バイト、すなわち128 GiBになったという経緯を知る収穫があった。

중국 출장용 폰 새로 주문했는데 계정도 새로 파고 모토롤라 폰을 사봤음 99달러인데 카메라 성능도 좋고 스타일러스 펜도 있고 좋구만 램이 약간 작긴한데 구글 픽셀 9 못지 않음... 번호도 새로 받았다 아마 가서 혹은 가기전에 새로 심을 하나 개통해야할듯 과거에는 회사에서 출장용으로 아이폰 대여해줬는데 판데믹 이후로 다 없앴음 하하...

So, what would be a good user-experience (UX) for power-users be — in a system that automatically creates ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data from HTML and Markdown‽
One thought I had is that power-users could explicitly mark what data from their HTML gets into the ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data (if they want to).
I'll explain —
#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #FediDev #Fediverse #Markdown #retejo #RDFa

Obviously, beginners are NOT going to do this, but — some power-users may want this level of control.
There are different way this could be done, but — one way might be that power-users could use RDFa to explicitly specify what data from the HTML gets into the ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data.
Again, beginners and typical users would NOT do this.
But a power-user might want to.
Here is an example —
#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #FediDev #Fediverse #Markdown #retejo #RDFa
This must be peak UI design. That super thin, tiny and faint edit field is not visible on a small phone screen. I tried for ages to tap around and find it. Only saw it after taking this screenshot and viewing it on my iPad with its better screen. Seems to be 0.1 pt line in fefefe on ffffff. Absolutely rubbish UI design.

I think one mistake some software does is — they create a good experience for beginners, but have a poor experience for power-users.
And keep in mind that — some beginners become power-users later on.
I think it is important to design for power-users, too, in addition to beginners.

AmaseCocoa @cocoa@hackers.pub
This post guides you through building a simple ActivityPub bot in Python using the `apkit` library. The bot listens for mentions and schedules reminders for users. It covers setting up the project, generating cryptographic keys for secure communication, defining the bot's identity as an ActivityPub Actor, and initializing the `apkit` server. The tutorial walks through the core logic for parsing reminder commands, sending notifications, and defining necessary web endpoints like `/actor` and `/inbox`. It also details how to handle incoming activities, such as `Follow` and `Create` events, and how to run the application using `uvicorn`. While the example uses in-memory storage for simplicity, the post suggests improvements like persistent storage and robust task queuing for production environments. This tutorial provides a solid foundation for building more complex ActivityPub applications.

How we feeling about auto-priortized inboxes, chat? And the fact that Apple Mail and Gmail have different categories?

What are "good" ways of automatically creating ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data from HTML and Markdown‽
I think the answer depends on who, for example, is writing HTML, and how they are writing it.
For example, is this a typical user? Is this a power-user? Do they know HTML? And if they do know HTML, how well do they know it? Etc?
I will show you what I mean —

If a typical user is writing in Markdown, and their Markdown file has a level-1 heading right at the beginning, then —
That could go into the ActivityPub "name" field.
And, similar could be done for HTML, too.
...
But what about power users —

Apropos of nothing, the Vision Pro remains an incredibly weird piece of technology. On the one hand I can understand why it exists more than it seems most pundits can. If you talk to the people who've used it, nobody's under the impression that it's anything but an ultra-luxury frivolous purchase, but within that category, it does deliver some powerful experiences that can't be had anywhere else. But it remains an own-goal for very stupid apple-y reasons

I have spending time thinking of ways you could automatically create ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data from HTML and Markdown
Most people will probably write in plain UTF-8 text, or Markdown, or HTML
How to do you take that and get it onto the Fediverse and Social Web‽
This isn't just a question of how to technically do it — but also a question of user-experience (UX)
I.e., what are "good" ways of doing it‽

What I'm listening to today: "Late Morning", Breakbeat Era
A couple days ago I linked the song from this album I thought had the closest chance of getting mainstream euro radio recognition for this odd Roni Size project. This (incidentally the next song on the album) is the track I think appeals best if you just like SOUNDS. Six minutes onrushing bull head down subway to an afternoon headache, breakbeat jungle boiled down to annihilation of all thought, moksha in motion
What I'm listening to today: "icm", a773
One last track from the musician I've been calling "the fusion-jazz-on-modular-synths guy". So thing is, mixing jazz and electronic music is not odd, it's just what you're *expected* to do is cut up the jazz as a backing for sampled breakbeats. This raises a question: What if a773 made a track with breaks? Turns out it turns out extremely well. Something here for both prog and Ninja Tune lovers. Nice understated bassline groove.
On corporate social media, using euphemism and indirect phrasing (maybe) evades censorship. On the fediverse, doing so evades the filters that other fedizens have set up. If you want to talk about a current distressing topic in the news, if you're not going to CW, *use unredacted, specific keywords*

How it uses ActivityPub?
If an HTTP request is made on a page on a Retejo server with:
Accept: application/activity+json
For some pages Retejo will automatically create a ActivityPub / ActivityStream version of the page.
(Retejo looks at the HTML to infer what the data in the application/activity+json document should be.)
...
Currently it is working on way, but — I want to improve it a bit though.
.
Fun fact: HTTP RFCs and drafts between ~1994 and 1999 assumed that servers using compression were storing precompressed data:
"The content-coding is a characteristic of the entity identified by the Request-URI. Typically, the entity-body is stored with this encoding and is only decoded before rendering or analogous usage."
This assumption is critical for interpreting a later sentence that otherwise makes no sense, about servers being expected to default to the "identity" non-encoding... if it is "available." Why would non-encoding ever not be an option? Precompression.
This is non-normative flavor text in the RFC, but I still think it's useful for interpreting its guidance for my weird-ass situation.
don't worry, bluesky has a plan on making it more decentralized!
They'll just fuck up administration and moderation in numerous ways over and over until no one trusts them anymore! :D

HR 3860 allows the Secretary of State to revoke the US passport of anyone “whom the Secretary determines has knowingly aided, assisted, abetted, or otherwise provided material support to an organization the Secretary has designated as a foreign terrorist organization.”
There’s no due process, and the only way to overturn it is to “request a hearing to appeal such denial or revocation not later than 60 days after receiving notice of such denial or revocation.”

they are not picked up, but when I add another one with space like so

all three are picked up. Seems like the server and client logics are different.

Excellent remote-hands are as rare as a completely sufficient budget. Treasure them, reward them, and tell absolutely everyone about them.
The great thing about Unix CLI or SQL syntax is that if you know what you're doing, you can get a lot done. The terrible thing about Unix and SQL is that if you don't know what you're doing, you can do a lot of damage. Unix/SQL doesn't protect you from yourself. It just assumes you know what you're doing.
