Ah, it's been nice to spend a few days actually using the tools we've been spending months building. The Observer and Companion are very excited to be back and are looking happy and shiny.
Gathering a large list of bugs as we go, but it's going pretty well. Mostly just lipsynch and camera action to sort out before debugging all the rendering stuff.
I'm following this tutorial by @Gargron, does anybody know if this is still up to date? I can't get Mastodon to find my test-actor in search. The inbox exists and can be posted to, the actor verifyer tools tell me it that it should be valid. I can see in my logs, that the mastodon instance I am searching for is accessing my actor endpoint, but in search, it tells me nothing can be found
*Use /search for search (/search?query=something)
*Move account secrets to a dedicated table (and encrypt it?)
*Add a way for the user to select which languages they understand
*Allow admins to configure instance favicon and logo
*Allow searching for hashtags in admin UI
*Convert Redux state to Typescript #MastoAdmin#devops#Programmers#dev.
Been working this weekend on improving the lighting and materials in the ObserverPod. Added a new array of controls with glowing buttons for the console, and a new fire-effect for the engines. All these things have to be re-done in Godot now we've abandoned Unity
Here's a little test-render of a scan of the new console and zooming outside to look a the engines firing.
Since I still haven't finished the new #Hugo theme I'm developing (too many distractions), I instead opted to backport code improvements and new Hugo modules. Not an easy task since I have to do it for 7 different third-party themes.
Love #Mastodon and want to see it thrive? Consider donating or becoming a sponsor. Money goes a long way to help the Mastodon team build the features you want.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, most of y’all don’t know what it’s like to be a fediverse developer of a popular project and have to deal with all the negative feedback and personal attacks
Let’s be nicer to the devs of the fediverse who have been doing this mostly unpaid for the greater good, all I ask is for basic respect!
Anfora, Prismo, Firefish and dozens of other projects have been abandoned by their devs, and I’d bet the fediverse mentality towards devs is part of the reason
One good way to support the Fediverse's volunteer devs: ask them to work with volunteer design and user-research practitioners who help them to develop and test usable designs – before any substantial code is written.
Testing mockups and prototypes with the community would reduce unhappiness all around.

WinterJS è un runtime Javascript incredibilmente veloce, compatibile con WinterCG e scritto in Rust, che utilizza il motore SpiderMonkey per eseguire JavaScript e Tokio per gestire le richieste HTTP e il ciclo di eventi JS. Il runtime WinterJS può anche essere compilato in WebAssembly e come tale è il primo runtime[...]"
Svelte è uno strumento per la costruzione di applicazioni web. Come altri framework per interfacce utente, consente di costruire l'applicazione in modo dichiarativo con componenti che combinano markup, stili e comportamenti.
Questi componenti sono compilati in piccoli ed efficienti moduli JS che eliminano il sovraccarico tradizionalmente associato ai framework UI.
Why don’t users in the EU have access to Home Screen web apps?
UPDATE: Previously, Apple announced plans to remove the Home Screen web apps capability in the EU as part of our efforts to comply with the DMA. The need to remove the capability was informed by the complex security and privacy concerns associated with web apps to support alternative browser engines that would require building a new integration architecture that does not currently exist in iOS.
We have received requests to continue to offer support for Home Screen web apps in iOS, therefore we will continue to offer the existing Home Screen web apps capability in the EU. This support means Home Screen web apps continue to be built directly on WebKit and its security architecture, and align with the security and privacy model for native apps on iOS.
Developers and users who may have been impacted by the removal of Home Screen web apps in the beta release of iOS in the EU can expect the return of the existing functionality for Home Screen web apps with the availability of iOS 17.4 in early March.

The terrible human toll in Gaza has many causes.
A chilling investigation by +972 highlights efficiency:
An engineer: “When a 3-year-old girl is killed in a home in Gaza, it’s because someone in the army decided it wasn’t a big deal for her to be killed.”
An AI outputs "100 targets a day". Like a factory with murder delivery:
"According to the investigation, another reason for the large number of targets, and the extensive harm to civilian life in Gaza, is the widespread use of a system called “Habsora” (“The Gospel”), which is largely built on artificial intelligence and can “generate” targets almost automatically at a rate that far exceeds what was previously possible. This AI system, as described by a former intelligence officer, essentially facilitates a “mass assassination factory.”"
"The third is “power targets,” which includes high-rises and residential towers in the heart of cities, and public buildings such as universities, banks, and government offices."
It was easier to locate the individuals in their private houses.
“We were not interested in killing operatives only when they were in a military building or engaged in a military activity. On the contrary, the IDF bombed them in homes without hesitation, as a first option. It’s much easier to bomb a family’s home. The system is built to look for them in these situations.”

Apple being Apple again. Just why does anyone actually like that company?
