Have been heavily working with Adonis.js for the past two weeks & pretty thoroughly enjoying it.

Some stuff is a little idiosyncratic to me, but overall I'm able to move really fast with it.

I'm also surprised at how quickly I've managed to get up to speed with Terraform + Kubernetes/Helm

I'm gonna put this down to all of @norbert's hard work setting up our infrastructure over the past few months. 12/10, would wanna work together again!

@ivory for some reason my theme randomly changes from the pink I've set it to, back to red (default), any ideas why?

thisismissem,
@thisismissem@hachyderm.io avatar

@ivory I don't have that on. And I also don't see that setting anymore? It looks like that setting doesn't exist on Mac, but I have Ivory on my phone as well, and it's disabled there.

@ivory well, it just did!

What's the comparative statement in your industry to: “that's great, but can you hang a door?”

I feel like in web development it's: “that's great, but can you center a div?”

@thisismissem@hachyderm.io avatar

iirc, it's explained in this video; I think it was Scott Brown who coined the phrase: https://youtu.be/xfELyt3UCE4

@thisismissem@hachyderm.io avatar

@xgebi right, but it's still something people can struggle with. Maybe "can you do it without a framework?" Might be more era appropriate.

This was a fantastic summary of the situation between publishers and platforms (albeit the tip of the iceberg); IMHO journalism should be valued as an independent checks and balances service in our democracy and supported through sustainable solutions like the proposed CA law @crumbler explains here https://www.platformer.news/platform-sales-tax-california-sb1327-glazer/?ref=platformer-newsletter

I'm gonna use this tool where no ones in charge, I don't pay for anything, and there are no real restrictions on how it's used.

Things happen that I don't like

no one could've seen this coming.

@polotek @ppk probably via the stuff I'm currently working on we'll eventually be able to trial and test different models for different content.

Right now your only option is via the webhooks (but that's currently local content only)

Good gosh, my internet has been a crawl today, when I'm meant to have up to 250mb/s I'm only seeing maybe 140mb/s, and LOTS of connection resets.

And let me tell you, this makes working with terraform extremely painful.

From personal experience, the config module on NPM is one of the major sources of long-term issues I have seen. You really should not store the various environment configurations in your app.

I talk more about it in https://buff.ly/4b5dYsV .

So y'all know I'm currently working on CSAM detection for IFTAS, right?

So as part of that, I need access to various third-party stuff like Thorn's Safer test matching content and the PhotoDNA libraries.

The other day we needed to transfer one of these libraries within the team, and a service provider flagged our account as containing potential CSAM.

Now, there's absolutely not CSAM in the file we transferred, but there are test images that will have their hashes in hashsets for testing.

thisismissem,
@thisismissem@hachyderm.io avatar

Now the reason I mention this, is because we had no idea if this service provider would terminate our service due to transmitting these test images (they're like mountains or kittens)

If this is the type of broken implementation one of the largest tech companies has, that really doesn't fill me with any confidence for the implementation of the EU's ChatControl proposal (ignoring all the privacy & security problems)

thisismissem,
@thisismissem@hachyderm.io avatar

Imagine if they reported you to police on suspicion of CSAM because you happened to have or receive one of those innocuous test images of kittens that happens to appear in the test datasets?

thisismissem,
@thisismissem@hachyderm.io avatar

@Natanox you'd think they'd just have two datasets & when triggering the alert make it clear it's for test media?

At least that's whatI intend to implement in IFTAS CCS, since we need the ability to show the system working end to end

Ah, fuck.. looks like I need to spend €4000+ on a brand new Apple laptop.. because the keyboard on mine has started to completely fail, and I'm having other weird issues (mine's 7 years old)

Here's to unexpected expenses…

I could really do with a lot of support right now: https://support.thisismissem.social

@todd I don't know / don't know how this affects item value for taxation.

Any dev out there willing to do a simple plugin for ?

A handful of indie devs are pitching in with working examples of FedCM, an important new identity standard with direct implications for the : https://wrily.foad.me.uk/sign-in-with-big-tech-only-or-sign-in-with-whom-i-prefer

The developer of LastLogin.io has implemented FedCM on his end, but he needs the help of a Discourse plugin developer to test the complete login pipeline with his own community forum.
