For a sneak preview of my followup to the Fediverse Schema Observatory, there's now a project page on the lab website for the ActivityPub Fuzzer:

asml.cyber.harvard.edu/activit

Basically it lets an ActivityPub server developer test compatibility with simulated messages from Fediverse software known to the Observatory (dozens of software projects and hundreds of versions!). The dev can do this entirely in a local dev environment.

The project is still in the works but I'll be releasing the code soon.

ActivityPub Fuzzer - Applied Social Media Lab at Harvard University

The Lab at Harvard’s Berkman Klein Center is home to technologists building an Internet for the public good. This is for them, and also for memes

super nice.

What I worked on the past weeks was to analyze the current news corpora of the University of Leipzig in different languages.
Then mixed it with an anonymized fedi corpus and wrote a thing which can
- compress ActivityPub Objects to 20% of its size by a combination of semantic compression where 256 languages can be covered. The rest would be uncompressed in multilanguage Objects (see Evans new Primer Page).
Result is UInt8Array for a database.

What I am working on now is to "preserve hashtags and common knowledge".
One byte is a pointer to Hashtags (where any word has a # at 0) and one byte is a pointer to 3x(256²) wikidata tables. So that we directly get the e.g. Q1055 for Hamburg and can ask the author if the prominent Hamburg is meant …
This was just a first demo for German github.com/sebilasse/compressDE which meanwhile improved and soon you can generate your lexica from corpora.
btw This can detect 852 languages github.com/redaktor/languages
Less data, better climate …
