I recently posted about archive.today (also archive.is, archive.ph, archive.fo, archive.li, archive.md, and archive.vn) using its archive links to launch a ddos attack against a blogger they accused of doxing them: https://mathstodon.xyz/@11011110/116028203974257264
That attack triggered #Wikipedia (at least, the English part) to discuss banning archive.today links, and the ensuing discussion turned up evidence that (as part of the same dispute with the same blogger) archive.today had also tampered with its archived content to falsify certain names in old archived links: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Archive.is_RFC_5#Evidence_of_altering_snapshots
This led to a quick close of the discussion and a consensus to remove all archive.today links from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Archive.today_guidance
For the same reasons I have removed all archive.today links from my blog, where I had been occasionally using them as a convenient way to access paywalled content. I suggest that others remove their links as well, lest you unwittingly become part of additional ddos attacks and falsification.

No, opposing LLMs isn't "purity culture." I've seen this now from quite a few different people, and I disagree vehemently. It is good, actually, to have moral principles and hold to them, even when people with more money than you find said principles annoying.

AS14593 is close to getting thrown on the naughty lists. Fuckers.
@mcc Hindi's got to be pretty good. "नमस्ते" (namaste) clocks in at 18 bytes for 3 gcs; of that the "-ste" alone (स्ते) is 12 bytes for 1gc. "पास्त्रामी" (pastrami - I'm just thinking of random words here) is 30 bytes for still 3 gcs. I'm sure someone who actually knows Hindi could do much better here!
@mcc (It will do well because, very roughly, consonants that don't have a vowel in between end up being a ligature, and by default consonants have a built-in "-a" vowel that takes an extra codepoint to remove - and then non-a vowels are also handled as ligatures. So you end up with complex ligatures that take a lot of bytes to construct.)
Two weeks from today, exactly, we'll be in the Expo Hall at SCALE 23x -- Workshops, real conversations, and practical sessions across open source, security, and cloud native.

I miss SuperHappyDevHouse. I miss my local Python meetup. I miss a sense of possibility and wonder and art and just _fun_ at what we could do with computers.
When I look at what remains of that culture though, it's like reading Heart of Darkness now https://harpers.org/archive/2026/03/childs-play-sam-kriss-ai-startup-roy-lee/

In other words, can you top out Bluesky's byte limit by writing in a human language, not relying on emoji or proto-emoji like ☪? And if not, what human text comes closest— has *largest* ratio of byte-length to grapheme-length?
I'm guessing the leading candidates would be:
- Vietnamese, as far as I know the diacritic-est language on earth;
- Chinese, assuming you can stick only to four-byte characters;
- Archaic korean— oh, but this one's *complicated*, so I'll have to explain in the next post—
@mcc i'm not sure that these count as a single grapheme (and nothing on my computer supports this part of the standard, so i can't easily check), but it looks like you can combine a whole bunch of ancient egyptian characters into a single glyph with egyptian hieroglyph format controls https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_Hieroglyph_Format_Controls this page https://mjn.host.cs.st-andrews.ac.uk/egyptian/res/js/testsuite_uni.html has examples of nine code-point stretches that appear to render as a single glyph, which I think works out to 36 bytes in utf8?

@evanEvan Prodromou
He he, language is hard. A case of terminology overload and clashing terms. Domain driven design has the clearly defined bounded context here which is the scope within which terms are valid. Forming a consistency boundary. These context lines are blurred in fediverse talk. 😅
@smallcircles🫧 socialcoding.. @steveSteve Bate @mariusormarius
I think in particular the terms "publisher" and "consumer" from AS2 and "client" and "server" from AP don't always map cleanly, especially with HTTP POST requests.
When a client delivers an activity to the actor's outbox, the client is the publisher of that activity, and the server is the consumer.
Same when a sending server (publisher) delivers an activity to a receiving server (consumer).

Had a lot of fun with my stats students today. I gave them two data sets. One from a random number generator, the other was one I made up that was not random, but designed to look random. They were able to figure out which one was fake.
Then we had ChatGPT make the same kind of data set (random numbers 1-6 set of 100) and it had the same problems as my fake set but in a different way.
We talked about the study about AI generated passwords.

The poll to the reply I just posted. It’s a good poll but I’m honestly confused/surprised by all the man page adherents. I guess I live in a different universe because almost all my man page experiences (not --help, man) have been negative or at the very least unintuitive.

i probably shared this one already, but i have just finished building a digital version of a 300+ printed photo album just now, and it's so much work that i feel i need to share *something* out of it (the whole album can't be shared publicly because it's too personal)
How am I supposed to travel in the netherlands in the future?
My bank card hasn't historically worked in public transit systems and you can only order the new OV-pas to a Dutch address. I refuse to use my phone's payment solution for this.
Is there any other option?
