Now that the former Coalfire employees' lawsuit has been settled, I can reveal that the attempts last year to subpoena me -- they failed -- was from defendants' counsel.
Someone knows Bash disgustingly well, and we love it.

In exchange for peanuts they once brought me an unknown animal rib and dropped it on my doorstop.
A study by Anthropic(!):
"We found that using AI assistance led to a statistically significant decrease in mastery. On a quiz that covered concepts they’d used just a few minutes before, participants in the AI group scored 17% lower than those who coded by hand, or the equivalent of nearly two letter grades. Using AI sped up the task slightly, but this didn’t reach the threshold of statistical significance."

We have what the preferred human calls "an American" in my house. I'm not yet sure if she's a replacement for the tall one or not: she's sleeping in the tall one's room, but she's not tall. She seems nice, but I shall remain on alert, just in case of irregularities. #CatsOfMastondon #Cats

Dropping into the middle of this from Mastodon
"I still think that a large part of the lack of interlocking with the rest of the fediverse is also due to the fact that own hashtags are used"
I've been camping on the #Forkiverse
/public/local
ever since it's been up
Checking just now I see virtually *no* hashtag use, period
That's zero
Searching from my Mastodon instance for the single hashtag I see, nothing is returned
It's almost like the Forkiverse exists in a separate, alternate universe, not to overwork the -verse suffix...

Ich hoffe es ist ok, wenn ich in Deutsch antworte.
Du bringst damit einen wichtigen Punkt ein, der viel mit dieser anfänglichen "Fehldarstellung" des Forkiverse zu tun hat.
Es wurde doch sehr als ein eigenes Netz verkauft, das zwar Anbindung an Fediverse hat, aber irgendwie etwas anderes wäre.
Der Lebensmittelpunkt ist die lokale Timeline, wie Du richtig angedeutet hast. Für die Leute im Forkiverse war die lokale Timeline das Netz. Sie haben sich darin bewegt, haben dort die Beiträge der anderen Menschen im Forkiverse gesehen.
Hashtags wurden gelegentlich genutzt, um bestimmte Themen zu abonnieren. So entstanden dann Hashtags wie CatsofForkiverse.
Es blieb also innerhalb dieser eigenen lokalen Gemeinschaft, obwohl sie technisch immer Teil des Fediverse waren. Innerhalb dieser lokalen Timeline brauchte man keine Hashtags.
Dadurch, dass man sich nicht außerhalb dieser lokalen Gemeinschaft bewegte, entstanden natürlich auch keine Routingeffekte mit anderen Instanzen.
So hat sich, wie sagst, der Zustand entwickelt, dass "das Forkiverse in einem separaten, alternativen Universum existiert".
Dabei war das immer meine Kritik, dass es sich vom Fediverse absondert.
@ralfbecker Ok, dann ist es wohl ein allgemeines Aktivitätsthema und keine technische Problematik.
Ich denke immer noch, dass ein Großteil der fehlenden Verzahnung mit dem restlichen Fediverse auch daran liegt, dass eigene Hashtags verwendet werden und somit Beiträge, die im Fediverse große Reaktion bekommen würden, eben dort nicht ankommen, sondern ausschließlich im Forkiverse verbleiben.
Für diese Begriffsthese, die ich häufiger verwendet habe, weil eben Sprache und Codewörter, was Hashtags sind, ganz maßgeblich verantwortlich dafür sind, ob Beiträge, die technisch grundsätzlich vorhanden sind, auch in den entsprechenden Kontexten erscheinen, wurde ich von manchen immer etwas verlacht, ich denke aber weiterhin, dass hier ein Schlüssel liegt.

Hanging out in the Friday Fresh chat over at @TIBtv and so impressed and inspired by the eclectic mix of music and visuals. Also, it was cool to see New Jersey represented with videos from myself, my longtime friend/collaborator @ChristianBeach and fellow @BlowUpRadio artist @jasondidner during the hour. Hoping to get some more NJ artists to join the fediverse this year.

Might get banned from the #forkiverse for this, but I think I need the Algorithm. How am I supposed to know who to follow, what to pay attention to, or what’s going to be most interesting to me without an Algorithm feeding it to me? Old Facebook worked because it was my friends, but this is just a bunch of random people I don’t know. How do I navigate this? I feel like the humans in WALL-E freed from their entertainment pods unable to navigate the world.
So for starters, I don't entirely get what's #forkiverse and what's mastodon "main". Or, I guess there's no difference in the interface. But then WHAT IS the difference?

I just scrolled down the #Forkiverse and then the punk rock instance counterforce.social and almost got envies. People mostly try to have a good time.
Then I scrolled through typo.social and figured, that I must have cluttered my timeline with a lot of politics, noise any hashtags from other instances.
Time to do some weeding.

Dear #forkiverse - anyone else hate the mastodon client? I can't decide what would make it better to find a decent client.

LOL love how a little 'ist' snuck in there.
I used to have English, Swedish and German all live as spell check and autocomplete on my smartphone keyboard at once, but it got confused as heck.
I now have both English and German on at once, and switch into Swedish only when needed.

Catherine O’Hara has died at 71. Her work spanned generations, her comedy held empathy, and her presence made space for sadness, joy, and everything in between. Here are 71 thing you need to know about her: https://zurl.co/f7CZO
