#decemberAdventure day 3 - went back through mastodon and misskey adapters and improved subscription behavior: all adapters except the anonymous one now support "home", "global", and "atme" timeline streaming; also using madon/v3 for mastodon so we have support for real AP IDs instead of numeric ones there.

I always love an indoor garden, and this one seems to be doing well. There's a lot of natural light, but there are also HID grow lights installed on the edge of the lower balcony. I wonder how much they use them. For the DIA installation titled "indoor garden," the costly full-spectrum lighting was part of the controversy around the long-term maintenance of the piece.

lesson plan goes to the program director :D

let's goooooo!

snuggles, software, stimulants, skating. my needs are simple and alliterative

today's #decemberAdventure hacking on underbbs involved more robust "byAuthor" and "convoy" handling in the activitypub adapter and in the frontend as well. now when you click on a user to view their profile in the navigator, you can see their latest posts. and when you click on a post, you see the conversation as best it can be constructed (top-to-bottom instead of bottom-to-top)

embrace the jank ;_;

last year i started #decemberAdventure with underbbs

this year i will finish* underbbs with decemberAdventure

(*by finish i mean release)

this honk brought to you by a microclient built with underbbs

So I was at a conference and the Georgia World Congress Center is really something. You'll have to put up with a run of photos of it.

one of the things i wanna do during my PTO over the next week is fix my icecast setup...

we now return to regularly scheduled honks (server was waiting for the block storage decryption key all night after cloudops rebooted it T-T)

I find it disillusioning to see the casual use of "AI" slowly creeping into our hacker circles. Most of the discussions about AI focus on the quality of its output. I think we're not doing a good job communicating its more fundamental dangers.

In this blog post I write about how tools shape who we are and why the resource intensiveness of AI is ingrained in its purpose. About the devaluation of skills, and power cycles.

Let me know what you think.

It shouldn't be surprising we get inhumane tech when we seperate out stem and the humanities
