Independent Mac/iOS & web developer. Building useless random stuff in Swift, Ruby or JavaScript and wasting time. Currently also learning Rust 🦀 I'm mostly hanging out on Bluesky these days and hacking things on the AT Protocol, so follow me there 😎 🐦 @kuba_suder 🦋 @mackuba.eu

I added

( in mode)… https://github.com/mackuba/skythread/compare/ae408616...master

I wonder how useful and how annoying it will turn out to be. In any case, deleting them would be a few clicks in the editor. But it looks not terrible and it should at least make refactoring safer 🤔

That feeling when Mastodon people would rather side with Jack Dorsey than with the developers 🙃

@jglypt and I even tagged it :>

Why there aren’t any leading news organizations on @Mastodon? #CNN is on #Bluesky but not here.

@yachtie @Mastodon They tend to not like journalists here (although tbh Bluesky also has this problem)…

The is great from the Fediverse side, but the side is still missing a lot. Posts longer than the limit just get truncated; wouldn't a Read More link be better? And self-replies don't seem to get bridged at all, so threads don't work.

@arnelson Yeah, I think this is all on the task list

Hmm… what if I wrote three separate implementations of that Mastodon timeline bridge in Ruby, Crystal and Rust and then compared the performance and developer experience… somebody stop me

Ah, I love arguing about with people who prefer ActivityPub/fediverse and know very little about ATProto, but have strong opinions about it… 🙃

So, Jack Dorsey gave an interview about why he gave up on , and apparently it's mostly that they… started doing moderation? 🤨

Yes, they sometimes take down accounts that are breaking ToS, e.g. harassing others. No, I don't think it's a bad thing.

Now that more parts of the federation and user-controlled moderation tools are ready, you can post from your own PDS and you won't be censored unless you, like, post CSAM or sth… (and we do want to censor that, right?)

Direct messaging coming to Bluesky in coming months. This is a shortcoming of other Twitter alternatives IMO, so I'm pleased to see it. No word about end-to-end-encryption but it's starting with 1:1 chat, where that's easier. https://bsky.social/about/blog/05-07-2024-product-roadmap

@stshank No E2EE in 1.0 because they want to get it out quickly, because some significant subset of users realllly want it… and then they're gonna think about doing this properly in the protocol later

Has anyone found the tech specs of the new Pro Magic Keyboard? I'm curious how much lighter and thinner the whole thing will be with a keyboard, because IIRC the previous one was actually pretty heavy (heavier than MBA a bit even?)

Hmm, random idea: what if I did this… 🤔

@emill1984 @pluszysta Czy ja wiem czy straci, chyba bardziej zyska - Dorsey nie ma jakiegoś wielkiego grona fanów, wręcz przeciwnie powiedziałbym ;)

@emill1984 @pluszysta 1) jest inaczej i lepiej :) 2) większość ludzi na Bluesky nie cierpi Dorseya (i ogólnie miliarderów z big tech) i raczej świętowali teraz, że zniknął z rady, zresztą już w zeszłym roku skasował tam konto po tym, jak parę razy próbował coś postować i ludzie go przegonili stamtąd

@pluszysta @emill1984 Szkoda, że Polska (przynajmniej sfery około-polityczne) ani myśli się ruszać z Twittera na razie z tego co widzę...

@shreyan do you maybe know any companies looking for Elixir devs by any chance? -> https://hachyderm.io/@solnic/112353654884018553

Funny thing: looks like something was changed on that it doesn't revert me automatically to For You every time I close & reopen the app - I can select Following and it just stays there… and I haven't updated the app, I still have the blue bird icon! It must have been a server-side toggle 🤨

Stack Overflow announced that they are partnering with OpenAI, so I tried to delete my highest-rated answers.

Stack Overflow does not let you delete questions that have accepted answers and many upvotes because it would remove knowledge from the community.

So instead I changed my highest-rated answers to a protest message.

Within an hour mods had changed the questions back and suspended my account for 7 days.

Diff view of a stack overflow question showing it being changed from the original text to a protest message, then being changed back again by a mod. Protest text reads: Why does OpenAI get to profit from our work? I have removed this question in protest of Stack Overflow's decision to partner with OpenAI. This move steals the labour of everyone who contributed to Stack Overflow with no way to opt-out. OpenAI has a history of flooding the web with inaccurate information and have explicitly stated that they will never pay creators for their work.

@ben Deleting highly rated answers from StackOverflow is a horrible, horrible idea… This is a huge library of knowledge for everything tech- and programming-related that millions of programmers rely on as a help in learning programming or solving problems. They're right that they don't allow deleting those.

The by Snarfed was soft-launched this week - still very alpha and a lot of things don't work, but posts are starting to come through both ways 🙂

Right now you need to follow the bridge to get bridged (the DM-request mechanism isn't finished yet). I'm tracking the bridged accounts (M->B) here: https://blue.mackuba.eu/directory/fedi

@luca Not on my site right now, but you could scroll through the followers of the bridge account on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ap.brid.gy/followers
