#tsunami #stern #geo
#SriLanka

The volunteers of charities like british saraid.org (Search and Rescue Assistance in Disasters) stay after their S.A.R operations to rebuild schools or public buildings.

Later on this day, we drove back to Batticaloa …

🧵

#tsunami #stern #geo
#SriLanka

On the way back, we pass some areas where we can only walk by the help of the army cause the locations of mines from the civil war period can only be predicted now.
We look into the eyes of very hungry wild dogs while the elephants stood reportedly on higher ground in a group close together.
Especially at the East Coast, large areas like around this collapsed Hindu temple were completely destroyed.

The only lesson I learned:
Whenever solid structures are destroyed – be it by a disaster, by fascists, by Elmo (or any) –
we need to rebuild.
Continuously rebuild.

The next day in Batticaloa we wanted to visit Chitravadivel again …

🧵

#tsunami #stern #geo
#SriLanka

We looked at the community to ask for Chitravadivel and I was thankful for my agency, stern and some editorial colleagues in that moment…

Chitravadivel was not at the left foundations of her house and it took us a while until we saw her nearby.

It was just moments after she had found her bike.

The bike to go to the hospital.
To help and then to rebuild.
Again.

/ addendum:
Today we are merely building #ActivityPub software (see pinned talk [EN] or Berlin Fediday Talk [DE]).
This includes patterns which can be helpful for disasters too – like federated geocoding, wikidata, wikibase and OSM integration.
If it feels like you can help or are interested, let me know.

@rauschma

just btw, we had a nice „Forum / Threaded Discussions“ Taskforce meeting today and if anyone would like to engage with the #activitypub specifications, tomorrow would be good :)

@andypiper
Yes.
When we look at the Social Web Foundation one could think that the USA is the world.

Please do not forget:
Other continents do exist.

Hier im Fedi zum vierten mal:

Wegen dieses Themas weise ich seit 1.5 Jahren darauf hin, das alle mittlerweile über 200 Schülen gegen die Bombendrohungen eingingen, die Namen von Juden*Jüdinnen trugen !

@alcinnz

well wouldn't JS be too much?
I guess it depends on what you do with that button but if it just submits anything or so:

@alcinnz

full ack, but not „just a jackass“ - that is so understatement
@tante is your friendly fedi jackass :)

just btw
The (mentioned) ghost folks made a subdomain about their journey to ActivityPub, here's the newsletter archive https://activitypub.ghost.org/archive/

@al1r4d

independent from any language, the checklist is

:digitalcourage: read the specifications in the correct order :)
This means you can read the protocol spec. first to get an overview https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/
but all of these W3C recommendations have "Normative References" and you need to understand them from the bottom up first, roughly the stack is
1) https (you can use other transport mechanisms but this is common)
2) Linked Data

3) JSON-LD (the underlying Linked Data format)
https://www.w3.org/TR/json-ld/
4) The definition of the Vocabulary
https://www.w3.org/TR/activitystreams-core/
5) The Vocabulary
https://www.w3.org/TR/activitystreams-vocabulary
6) The protocol
https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/

[and apart from it natural language values for multilanguage and rel links and e.g. webfinger for mastodon]

Then you can go on with nedjos checklist
https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/guide-for-new-activitypub-implementers/479

#activitypub #activitystreams #dev

PS
my language is JS / deno

@andypiper

This.

At Public Spaces where fortunately mastodon had a Talk too, I called it
„The end of humanity“:
https://digitalcourage.social/@sl007/112597533470606692

Anyway, since probably _all_ fedi devs are now seriously concerned „about sovereignty of online information“ my only solution is that we should establish a monthly or biweekly robust virtual Place where we talk and come together. Especially those working fulltime and payed work fine but they do not work _together_ ...

@fantafanta

if you do not find enough people still using email or maybe want to serve also people younger than you, you can find many Open-Source bridges from email to the worlds leading federated social protocol …

@pfefferle @naturzukunft @evan

webfinger has nothing to do with ActivityPub.
fediday Berlin joined fediforum later but in my Talk before I talked about our projects.
In the Public Broadcasters project (ARD,ZDF,SRG,SRF,RTR,Radio Canada, CBC etc.) many many Actors are just an URL.
It was a clever design decision in AP
Due to the structure of Public Broadcasters, this project reaches 47 million people _in Germany alone_ ...

@naturzukunft @pfefferle @evan

yes, but we see much software not accepting incoming things without webfinger. As we all noted at several events, this destroys the fediverse.

Just btw Evan, traditionally c-base streams to youtube and so did Berlin Fediday but I will mirror it to the peertube, somehow it only allows up to 5h, will check.
And then add the shared presentation to it.

@BeAware :fediverse:

addendum:
The public audience of #Germany gave 12 points to #Israel

Congratulations to Switzerland.

Single racists holding a singer hostage for politics:
You have lost.

In the end
Music won.
Diversity won.

Esteemed #Fediverse –
in this case I got no answer from maintainers at all, so I am starting public again:

If you read an announcement about a “federated #wikipedia alternative”;
here is 1 thing you should know:

Larry #Sanger is a right-wing conspiracy theorist and probably an active Nazi. We had a formal group decision to keep him out.
I did inform Jimmy Wales about the defamation too …
#lemmy #alternativeFacts

PS:
We are working on federating the real wikibase incl. wikidata. Watch out for wikis “Data Reuse Days” …
#ActivityPub

💖 now can't sleep cause saw https://github.com/dahlia/fedify/
#fediverse #framework which is wonderful.

@hongminhee : we do also start to build anything #ActivityPub with #deno (incl. journalistic CMS client, public broadcaster thing, taxiteam client) and so, I work on a UI system with #fresh for all the `type`s …

Eine SPIEGEL-Anfrage bei den Bundesländern zeigt, dass Bauernproteste vielerorts gefährliche Folgen hatten.

“
In Sachsen-Anhalt sind 43 strafrechtliche Ermittlungsverfahren anhängig
[…]
In Schleswig-Holstein behinderten protestierende Bauern laut Innenministerium am 9. Januar einen Rettungswagen und ein Notarztfahrzeug.

@mk

Kannst Du auch ohne Haß?
Du fragst wer mich braucht?
Wenn Du das nicht weisst, geh bitte weg hier. Ich habe mein gesamts Vermögen u.a. für die offiziellen Konferenzen gegeben.

Dich brauchen wohl Deine 32 Follower 🤣 , mache es gut.
