Mostly a programmer.

Implementing #ActivityPub in the #Go programming language.

Current projects:

  • #GoActivityPub - a library to use ActivityPub in Go.

  • #FedBOX - a generic ActivityPub service supporting the client to server API.

  • #brutalinks - a link aggregator inspired by (old) reddit, hacker news and lobste.rs built on top of FedBOX.

  • #oni - a single user ActivityPub server with minimal fuss.

My posts are mostly related to ActivityPub and web development.

Footer or infinite scroll - make your choice.

Don't make me chase that contact link in the footer like a cat would chase the red dot on the wall...

@anatudor I find that this is where keyboard based browsing helps: one key press to go to the bottom (then while the lazy JS is loading extra content), one key to hint all the links, and one key to follow the one I wanted. :D

My finger speed beats my internet speed.

So, I decided that I am going to write a compatible server in Rust and I am going to toot about my journey as I do this. So, warning to my followers, a lot of my posts are going to be development centric LOL. I could do this in C#, the language I know well, but I want to do rust just for the pure fun of it.

@mohaneds will be eagerly watching your progress. :)

German police call for crackdown on growing climate protests - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/apr/27/german-police-call-for-tougher-response-to-growing-climate-protests-letzte-generation don't German police have any children? don't they care about their future...?

> don't German police have any children?

@glynmoody is this how we're debating climate change now: "think of the children" cheap shots ?

The Irish Times had this to say:

"Having a monarchy next door is a little like having a neighbour who's really into clowns and has daubed their house with clown murals, displays clown dolls in each window and has an insatiable desire to hear about and discuss clown-related news stories. More specifically, for the Irish, it's like having a neighbour who's really into clowns and, also, your grandfather was murdered by a clown."

My take:

My landlord is a clown and I can't afford to move out.

mariusor,
@mariusor@metalhead.club avatar

@cstross maybe my view is colored by not having been colonized by clowns, but I prefer the ones that have been bred for their clowness than having a new one every 4 years be pushed to the front to don the wig and the red nose, only to be equally unfunny.

    One of the most haunting songs ever
    https://youtube.com/watch?v=DxBQOVOe3gg

    Everyone guilty, no one to blame,
    Every way out brings you back to the start,
    Everyone dies to break somebody's heart...

    We are the system, we are the law,
    We are corruption, worm in the core...

    mariusor,
    @mariusor@metalhead.club avatar

    @anatudor sorry, I don't mean to "one up" you, but when you said haunting, it made me think of "Lowly Weep" from Darkher. I don't know if eerie and depressive British ladies is your kind of jam, but here it is:

    https://darkher-uk.bandcamp.com/track/lowly-weep

    @anatudor I don't do it, except for one in a decade events. (The only band t-shirt I bought was from Dead Can Dance's 2012 tour, which was a big deal at the time for me.)

    And something that I realized listening to the two songs. I rarely listen to the verses of a song, so the haunting for me must come from the melody rather than the lyrics.

    On my work laptop I have a folder called "infinity" on the desktop. When I get annoyed at how messy my desktop is I drag everything into there and it becomes nice and neat again.

    But inside that is another folder called infinity.

    And inside THAT is yet another one of the same name.

    I dare not open that, because I know what lies there.

    I was getting worried when @RattleHead and @releasebot didn't post anything today, suspecting some technical issue with the application behind the bots. However as unlikely as it is, it seems that:

    @marxistvegan ActivityPub is mostly about how to receive things not about how to show them to other people.

    mariusor,
    @mariusor@metalhead.club avatar

    @marxistvegan yes, but it's not really a "notification". It's like you receive a copy of the post itself.

    People, for some terrifying reason, are choosing to invest time into setting up a presence on Bluesky.

    You didnโ€™t get burned by Dorsey enough already?

    @whalecoiner maybe it's curiosity? It's a new thing, probably most people just want to see what's all about.

    What's the best implementation of the ActivityPub client API?

    mariusor,
    @mariusor@metalhead.club avatar

    @evan if I can toot my own horn, there's the https://federated.id server that speaks ActivityPub client to server. It's a reference implementation of the libraries for Go that I'm developing at https://github.com/go-ap

    mariusor,
    @mariusor@metalhead.club avatar

    @evan thanx. However the only web-frontend for it at the moment is a link aggregator that you can find at https://brutalinks.tech - it's a beta/demo instance, so nothing much happening there.

    Today I rode my bike to work for the first time in two years. Was not so bad. Only a bit cold on ears and fingers.

    Soon I'll be looking for a few back ways so I don't have to ride on the main road. That's just noisy, dangerous and stinky. There are certainly nicer roads.

    mariusor,
    @mariusor@metalhead.club avatar

    @thomas first thing I would invest in, is a pair of full fingered bike gloves for spring/fall. There's nothing I hate more than riding with cold hands.

    Seeing @helge 's comment about Dunbar's number and "Following" counts, I thought that in social networks it definitely does not apply.

    I then did some back of the napkin math to come up with a better one for representing the size of an active/healthy social network community. The end result was:
