Could Hypermedia-Driven Application architecture be useful for AP C2S?

Danyl Strype @strypey@socialhub.activitypub.rocks

Check out this intro to HDA (Hypermedia-Driven Applications);

https://hda.daz.is/architecture/why-hypermedia-driven-architecture/

This seems relevant to the ongoing discussions about C2S APIs for the fediverse, especially the proliferation of the monolithic server+web-app antipattern. If Daz (@daz@social.coop) is correct, properly RESTful APIs that use an HDA architecture might be a way to realise Christine Webber's original vision. Fediverse web apps with specific purposes, like browsing and posting video, as ways to login to generic AP servers hosting general-purpose accounts.

«This is not about purity. Nobody is asking you to reject every managed service on principle or run Gentoo on everything. It’s about maintaining enough technical competence that you are a participant in the systems you depend on rather than a permanent subject of them. It’s about being able to make informed choices instead of having choices made for you by systems optimized for someone else’s revenue»

Anthropic ってもう少し地味にやっててトランプ政権が終わったころにブレイクしてたら元のポリシー変えずにやれたのかな。

そういう意味では第2次トランプ政権ってタイミングが絶妙だよな。

I self-host a lot of stuff. Nearly everything that I use. FOSS and self-hosting is a massive part of my computing experience.

I love reading about people enjoying / exploring self-hosting stuff.

I struggle when people advocate "just self-host it", without giving due consideration to the costs, risks, security considerations, and so on.

I know that I've posted this a few times now, but this discussion seems to pop up quite a lot. So:

'The D. of War... have also threatened to designate us a “supply chain risk”... and to invoke the Defense Production Act to force the safeguards’ removal. These latter two threats are inherently contradictory: one labels us a security risk; the other labels Claude as essential to national security.'

One of the reasons for the divide in how using AI as a major software dev path is framed is the difference in framing for what software dev is in the first place.

For people who see it as a generator of monetized products (an IP factory), any tech that could maybe lower COGS is exciting. For such folks, software is “good” when it costs less to produce. Quality is only important if it lowers costs or increases revenue. 🧵(1…

AI、事実上軍事的な闘争の場になりつつある ていうか計算資源の制限をめぐる闘争はすでに準・軍事的だし、AIをクローズドモデルにするのも国家間の闘争というか巨大資本対中国みたいな様相になっている。 Anthropic が中国企業に「蒸留された」ってじゃあ claude はぜんぶクリーンな権利処理されたリソースで学習したのかよ。

캘리포니아에서 오픈소스 운영체제가 멸종당하는 건
"캘리포니아주는 2027년부터 운영체제 수준에서 계정 생성 시 연령 확인 절차를 의무화하고, 애플리케이션에 필요한 정보를 제공하는 신호 API를 도입할 예정입니다. 특히, 이를 위반한 개인 개발자나 기업에 대해서는 아동 1인당 2,500달러의 벌금을 부과할 것이라고 명시적으로 밝히고 있습니다.
제가 이해한 바로는, 계정 생성 시 변경 사항을 적용하고, 앱에서 연령을 확인할 수 있는 메커니즘(라이브러리)을 제공하며, 패키지 관리자에서 앱을 필터링할 수 있도록 지원해야 할 것 같습니다. 그런 다음 브라우저에서 이를 구현하고 데스크톱 사용을 위해 해당 OS API를 호출하여 연령을 확인해야 할 것입니다.
여러 *NIX 시스템에서 플랫폼 간에 유사한 메커니즘을 구현하는 것이 타당해 보입니다."

お金が無くて大学進学を諦めたから、奨学金はズルいって言う人は昔からいた。

でもお金がないレベルで言うと、私も相当無かったし(一人暮らしだけど仕送りも貰えずとにかくバイトで乗り切った)、まじでない友達いっぱいいてみんな夜職やそれに近いようなバイトいっぱいして奨学金借りて何とか公立の大学卒業したんだよな。

お金がなくて大学進学を諦める人なんて早くゼロになって欲しいけど、実際には普通に勉強が嫌いだった人もそういう事言うし、え、うちよりよっぽどお金持ちじゃんって人も言ったりする。
あと、大学なんて遊ぶために行ったんでしょ?と言う人とか。

見えてる景色と環境が違うんだけど、想定が都心できれいな服着て小遣い程度のバイトで毎日飲み会しているような大学生なんだろうな。我々は嫉妬されるような学生生活おくってないのよ...
