La Suite numérique is a set of open-source applications for digital collaboration and teamwork. It offers modern solutions for the digital workplace.

https://github.com/suitenumerique

La Suite is built by French government agencies DINUM and ANCT. It is also the product of a close european collaboration with the Netherlands and German state.

Note to self: they're gonna expect me to know who won The Big Game Trademarked By A Litigious Corporation when I get into work. Especially since they know I'm from Seattle.

Must remember to check scores before Tuesday morning.

Reading through the System Prompts / Hints that Xcode 26.3 injects into the agents is fascinating..and honestly is just helpful documentation to read…essentially concise examples of best practices and implementations recommendations.

Reminds me of the old programming "Guides" which apple used to publish alongside the main documentation which were more focused on how to use the API, than what it was.

There're in: Xcode.app/Contents/PlugIns/IDEIntelligenceChat.framework/Versions/A/Resources

OK special agent, you're in charge of the undercover ambulance.

讀完了《日本統治下の台湾―開発・植民地主義・主体性》，稍微寫一下讀後感。

I have deeply mixed feelings about #ActivityPub's adoption of JSON-LD, as someone who's spent way too long dealing with it while building #Fedify.

Part of me wishes it had never happened. A lot of developers jump into ActivityPub development without really understanding JSON-LD, and honestly, can you blame them? The result is a growing number of implementations producing technically invalid JSON-LD. It works, sort of, because everyone's just pattern-matching against what Mastodon does, but it's not correct. And even developers who do take the time to understand JSON-LD often end up hardcoding their documents anyway, because proper JSON-LD processor libraries simply don't exist for many languages. No safety net, no validation, just vibes and hoping you got the @context right. Naturally, mistakes creep in.

But then the other part of me thinks: well, we're stuck with JSON-LD now. There's no going back. So wouldn't it be nice if people actually used it properly? Process the documents, normalize them, do the compaction and expansion dance the way the spec intended. That's what Fedify does.

Here's the part that really gets to me, though. Because Fedify actually processes JSON-LD correctly, it's more likely to break when talking to implementations that produce malformed documents. From the end user's perspective, Fedify looks like the fragile one. “Why can't I follow this person?” Well, because their server is emitting garbage JSON-LD that happens to work with implementations that just treat it as a regular JSON blob. Every time I get one of these bug reports, I feel a certain injustice. Like being the only person in the group project who actually read the assignment.

To be fair, there are real practical reasons why most people don't bother with proper JSON-LD processing. Implementing a full processor is genuinely a lot of work. It leans on the entire Linked Data stack, which is bigger than most people expect going in. And the performance cost isn't trivial either. Fedify uses some tricks to keep things fast, and I'll be honest, that code isn't my proudest work.

Anyway, none of this is going anywhere. Just me grumbling into the void. If you're building an ActivityPub implementation, maybe consider using a JSON-LD processor if one's available for your language. And if you're not going to, at least test your output against implementations that do.

Sometimes you can't wait, and just need to build it.

- https://fedidb.org - started off as an internal pixelfed debug service, but the stats pages were more used, so I spun out the debug to https://pubkit.net

- https://fediverse.info - needed a way to collect profiles for Pixelfed discovery via the #fedi22 hashtag

- https://respectfulplatforms.org - the fediverse lacked a charter of rights and principles

- https://webintents.net - easier sharing/following and onboarding

So build 🚀

Handy thing I just spotted coming to Python 3.15:

"The -W option and the PYTHONWARNINGS environment variable can now specify regular expressions instead of literal strings to match the warning message and the module name, if the corresponding field starts and ends with a forward slash (/).

因為今日都係播廣東舊歌，佢又問下我呢首詞邊個寫，大家討論下兩個偉文當打之年嘅風格。

佢問我點分別兩個人嘅詞，我話Wyman嘅字嘅POV少啲委屈自己，所以佢會寫「你沒有好結果」，但夕爺嘅字係寧願痛自己都唔想搞到人地又或者怕自己騷擾到人，所以佢會寫「多我這個不多 我太好心還是太傻」。

至於鍾意邊個嘅詞多啲，係睇聽眾嘅性格，個人愚見，配得感低嘅人會易啲喺夕爺嘅詞入面搵到共鳴。

@miau715Miau Huang @nightside @ohbeconHyrule 米奧說的「不要特別輕聲細語」我們也用過，滿有用的

一直以來的原則是盡量給他安全感，他覺得足夠了就會想自己嘗試一些東西，包括自己睡。就算現在，只要覺得怕怕或就是想過來睡，我們還是會讓他過來

然後當時曾一起商量過搬到自己房間睡的計畫，以他可以接受的方式漸進。我們把晚上分成前、中、後，一開始全程陪著，等他覺得可以了，再改成前、後（沒有中，也就是睡前跟早上醒來都看得到爸爸，中間醒來有機會看不到）；再進步一點，只剩下前；然後再改成只剩下後；最後是完全自己睡。只要他覺得不安想回到上一個階段，我們就回去

Typing a lot causes flare ups of the health issues I’ve been having (and still getting to bottom of). The next day will usually consist of pins and needles and shooting pains up and down my arm.

And while LLMs are problematic for various reasons - LLMs plus modern voice recognition can really help me reduce my typing. I have to remember to force myself to use voice (muscle memory is a bitch), but it works extremely well when I do.

This is an immensely significant document that continues to get virtually no attention in US media—but lots abroad. In Jul 2015, Epstein arranged a meeting between a known highest-level Russian intel operative, Sergey Belyakov and Peter Thiel, the man who owns Palantir, a key contractor to the US intelligence community. Under US law, Thiel, as a holder of high level security clearances, was required to report this contact to USG. It does not appear he did so.

Well, that's a new one. 🤪

Saw somebody posting a huge diatribe on LinkedIn where she basically accused every "digital" artist of hypocrisy when they're critical of the slop machines, because these new generative algorithms are apparently no different than Photoshop or 3D animation software. "The computer automates all the work for you!"

⚠️ PSA for anyone still on the mastodon.cloud server, you might want to move off there ASAP.

The server's admin hasn't posted since February 2023 and the server software is so old it's no longer supported for security updates.

There have been cases of extreme abuse posted by mastodon.cloud members and the admin took no action after months of reports. It is possibly an abandoned server, so you might want to transfer your account elsewhere while you still can.

If you need help transferring your account, there's a step-by-step guide at https://fedi.tips/transferring-your-mastodon-account-to-another-server

If you need help choosing a new server, see https://fedi.garden
