To be honest, my partner would murder me if she heard me doing that shit on repeat for penny donations. It's not worth it, no matter how much the world wants to see me twerk to catchphrases.
@stefan Let me see if I get this right: the fediverse could standardize a scheme (e.g. fediverse://..) and then on iOS/Android all apps would need to add handlers for these schemes.
Then we could create these fediverse links when we detect a mobile device or even use something like
Reminder: #Fediverse#Developer Network meetup in about 12 hours: Wednesday June 5th at 9:00am pacific.
You are all invited, particularly if you are a #developer new to ActivityPub and the #fediverse, or if you have an existing implementation and are interested in the first round of test results from @feditest!
Taking some personal days to re-evaluate stuff and think about the future of Operation: Puppet.
The more time that passes, the more I want to invest my time in the #fediverse and the #indieweb. I have a tiny following here but the corpo web is such a dystopian steel wall that at least here there’s a path forward for regular folks.
So in the quest to purge as many shitty services from my life as I can, how are the alternative federated Reddit alternatives going these days? Did any of them get any traction? #fediverse
Friends of #BSDCafe and the #Fediverse, for those who may not have heard, we recently lost Mike Karels - @karels - a truly significant figure in the history of our favorite operating systems. Among our BSD Cafe community, we have his niece - @kristin_charlotte
Let's show her family our warmth and gratitude for the role he played.
Very exciting that @drlucyrogers is here in the #fediverse! Let's welcome her! Great talk at #emfcamp about the science and wonders of looking up, so hoping to see that video available before too long 🎉
I’m excited to say that I turned in my manuscript for the ActivityPub book for O’Reilly Media today. I started working on it in September of 2023, with a lot of interim checkpoints and deadlines since. In April 2024, I finished the first draft of the manuscript. Over the month of May, I’ve been working on improvements suggested by the technical reviewers who agreed to look over the book, and from my own re-read.
In total, my TODO file for this month has about 250 changes to be made. Some are small — just changing a word or two — but one required adding a whole new chapter, and many required multi-paragraph sections.
I took the last week of May off from my work at Open Earth Foundation to concentrate on making changes. My team was really supportive, which I deeply appreciated. I went to our country house in the Eastern Townships of Quebec, and I spent the week writing, editing, drawing and thinking.
Now, the next stage of book making starts: production. The production team at O’Reilly will be copyediting, indexing, and laying out the book. Their designers will be taking my UML diagrams and turning them into professional-looking illustrations. We have two rounds of quality control on code samples and fact checking on content.
In September 2024, the final e-book will be available for sale. I’ll have a link here for the pre-sale version when it comes out. If you’re eager to read the book, I highly recommend reviewing the early release version.
Thanks so much to my friends, family and colleagues who’ve made space and time for me to do this work. It has meant a lot to me. I hope the final product helps more developers create cool projects using ActivityPub.
Let’s start our Tuesday morning with our #KoffeeWithKyle chat and discuss what our plans are for the day.
It’s just a regular ol’ work day here for me. The day to day IT/MSP stuff with support stuff mixed in between. Then tonight will just be some website work and relaxing so the my wife and watching TV.
Any other let’s plays that also publish their work as a podcast so I don’t have to hack a method of turning YouTube channels into podcasts? I know about gorillas play through but I’m looking for others. I turn all YouTube channels into podcasts anyway to avoid the ads and other cruff, but anything on #PeerTube? #Gaming#Games#YouTube#Podcasts#Podcast
I just hit send on the Open Letter to the Speaker, Clerks of the House and Senate and the Chair of the House Procedures and House Affairs Committee. (and cc'ed to other relevant Ministers, MPs and Senator)
67 signatures included! Anyone can still add one on the web version.
Thanks 🙏 for helping to push this. There may be a third (and final!) push, but it will be Canada only.
THANK YOU!
