The framing here is very wrong: things can get much worse and not get better for decades, centuries, so it doesn't make sense to claim they will get better at all if all you see is a downward trend. This slogan is repeated too often, and gives people false hopes and make them apathic, thinking that they should just wait and "survive" while things go through a bad period and then get better. That isn't the attitude we need from the people who know what is going on. We need them to do _something_, not only try to egoistically survive. Likewise, things _can_ get a lot better without having to get worse. It makes no sense to claim otherwise. This is just doomerism wrapped in a disguise of false prophecy. View article →

@reya can you add an option to Coop mobile to disable the randomized timestamps, it's giving a hard time due to some reasons? Maybe just disable it altogether, only randomize the gift-wrap, not the seal or whatever it's called. It doesn't make sense to randomize the internal thing that no one sees anyway.

Clients should double down on allowing people to moderate their own comment sections: eliminate annoying, unwanted, harassing replies by just deleting them from your own inbox relays. Maybe even ban someone from ever replying or mentioning you again. Of course, it requires those inbox relays to support this flow, but aside from that it should just work.

Useless, yes, but some people seem to like it, and now I don't have to do complicated built-in integrations myself, I can just rely on the user-provided inference bridge.

Now this is much nicer, no AI slop for anyone to read: Who knows if this is really useful, probably not. Although I did use it to manage a list of pubkeys (diff from a JSON dump I pasted and insert only the delta into the form) successfully. At least it is more useful than having a stupid chatbot repeating garbage from a slop-generated documentation page at the user. View quoted note →

I've implemented IPA in https://hallway-deployer.fiatjaf.com, here's a boring video: Now I'm thinking it would be better to get rid of this chatbox entirely and just let the AI perform actions but ignore whatever it has to say. Would that make sense? For context: View quoted note → View quoted note →
