In #LibrePlanet talk about #GNU#Taler the speaker Ivรกn Alejandro รvalos Dรญaz is warning us about our future in 2050 where we no longer have #Freedoms to choose our payment systems, pay with cash, or pay at all if we were behaving 'naughty'.
Yes. There are always opportunities to introduce people to humane technologies, and the more the general web enshittifies through BS tech trends that are hastily cast upon society in a mad dash for the big $$$, the more we can distinguish ourselves by offering delightful solutions that stand out from all that garbage.
I'm interested in server-side use mostly, but some impressive experiment is Makepad, that offers a Figma-like DSL for complex UI. In their conference vid multiple apps are live-embedded in their presentation slidedeck.
Witnessing another occurrrence of the #ReplyGuy anti-pattern this morning inspired me to write some thoughts about this social behavior that is so common on our #Fediverse that is based on #PublicSquare#Microblogging mechanics.
On the #SocialCoding forum I created a category for #SocialExperienceDesign (or #SX) patterns, and the "Reply Guy" #AntiPattern is the first entry in what might be turned into a pattern library collection.
It didn't really occur to me, until I saw your mention rn. That since my migration off masto social I see so much less ๐ฉ xitter reposters. Never linked that to my migration.
It is not Github that is at fault. It is #Rust projects that have a dependency on yaml-rust and - via Github Actions - see CI reporting a message from RUSTSEC. Here's that advisory:
Since #Rust Crates.io started giving #RUSTSEC warnings on the unmaintained status of #yaml-rust library, there's a bit of a panic, not in the least because 1,000's of crates depend on it.
This article by the maintainer of Insta snapshot testing tool gives a nice analogy to Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO's) with considerations on whether you should fork or might vendor the lib.
I don't have preferences wrt names, but it will be harder to defend a name with a broad adoption and where the dilution is already well underway.
Was pondering an idea to refer to the "affectionate name" we give, namely "Fedi". I capitalized it here as a name, and it can be hashtagged #Fedi as well in specific reference to that concept we wanna define.
People say Fediverse has "diverse" in it. Fedi can be short for "fediverse is diverse".
Currently the #FEP process serves as an instrument for the open ecosystem that allows people to draw attention to what they want to or have built. For reasons of collecting feedback, providing help or in hopes of others adopting their practices so as to increase general interop in some way or other.
The process is informal, lightweight, and its facilitators assume no authority. Anyone can submit FEP's on whatever they want. Authors are in charge, ecosystem decides to adopt or not.
Give @julian#Github comment some good reactions to show the folks of the #W3C Federated Identity CG that there's more than #BigTech#identity providers to take into account..
Those were all calls to *prepare* at the time there wasn't this corporate takeover yet, and people saying how broadly we should advertise and attract people, i.e. encourage network effect we wouldn't be able to handle well. I shared many times Darius's ActivityPub conference talk on how we might be stronger in the face of what was to come.
Wouldn't you say that the choice of property vs type based interop is one of pragmatism vs best-practice rn? Where the pragmatic choice is the one that will make general interop increasingly harder, not easier?
"Here's my as:Document which is really something else and you can figure that out in your if-then-else constructs based on the properties"
Esp. while still lacking good solid mechanisms/practices to convey the semantics of a msg. Except hand-wavy "It's LD".
