I find it fascinating that after all the years Mozilla has been developing and integrating it into Firefox, Rust has not gone above 10% of the codebase yet: 4e6.github.io/firefox-lang-sta

Though 10% is still millions of line of code 🤯

Pretty much every closed system you depend on (operating systems, libs, online services, social media, marketplaces) will eventually make decisions you can’t abide, it’s largely just a matter of when.

It’s ok to depend on them anyway, so long as you don’t delude yourself of this fact, and are prepared to pull the rip cord when the inevitable happens. Always have a plan B, even if that’s “burn it all and start again”

If you’re not willing to accept this, only depend on things you can control.

I tried making QT work with Ivory and IceCube from bird.makeup, but I'm not sure what is required. I've setup meta tags, and I support json requests, but it doesn't work. Does anyone know what exactly those apps look for to check if a link is a QT?

Help would be greatly appreciated!

@_L1vY_ Oooh we may be in luck!

From Bird.Makeup documentation:

"Unlike BirdsiteLive, bird.makeup doesn't use official twitter api, but the undocumented frontend api, just like nitter.net, which doesn't have rate limiting."

And I found the developer. @vincent. THANK YOU!!

A judge used ChatGPT AI chatbot to write a decision in a court case about an autistic child’s healthcare, including to write the arguments about the legal technicalities. Jesus fucking christ. vice.com/en/article/k7bdmv/jud

Will we have another wave of migration to mastodon, but this time of all the fun and useful bots?

Regarding the change Twitter is making to their API :

To my knowledge there are 2 projects that won’t be affected: nitter.net and bird.makeup because those two are not using the official api, but instead are basically pretending to be human browsing Twitter.com

Happy to help projects that help find people to follow on the fediverse do the same thing

Banning free API use blocks anyone who's inclined to abide by the rules but does nothing to stop anyone who's already using the official app API keys to look like a human

I have been binge listening a great podcast lately: Dungeons & Daddies

It’s basically an improv show of an adventure loosely based on Dungeons & Draggons, but really funny and absurd.

Highly recommended even if you are (like myself) not usually into D&D!
