Happy to report that as we are about to hit 3.1k users on bird.makeup, the latest round of optimizations I did brought down the time it takes to iterate through all twitter users from ~1.5 hours to ~35 minutes.

Onwards!

So @cue announced that Apple has now raked in more than $130 Billion in rent seeking AppStore profits. Other than Swift / iOS, Apple did not need to write a single line of code. 😤 apple.com/newsroom/2023/01/app

The entire world has a stake in the success of Brazil’s democracy. Together, we must reject any effort to overturn or disrupt the will of the Brazilian people and affirm the peaceful transfer of power as a cornerstone of democracy.

Thinking about buying a Steam Deck, but maybe I should wait for a v2 with an OLED screen, since I already have a switch.... Any owners here of both systems with thoughts about it?

We are now at 2763 users on bird.makeup and it takes an hour and a half to iterate through all twitter accounts. I guess it's time to start optimizing again!

Added some new Mastodon monitoring infrastructure for discuss.systems.

Sure, every good #MastoAdmin has a cool Grafana dashboard, but we're going a bit more old school here...

I wanted to summarize what is known about the new XBB.1.5 variant of SARS-CoV-2, which is starting to generate a lot of interest.

(There are no new scientific results in this thread, it simply aggregates previously reported results for those not following topic closely.)

bird.makeup feels too good to be true. I'm using it to pipe in news sources that aren't on Mastodon yet, so that's one less need for me to be on Twitter. Thanks to @vincent for providing this excellent service.
