@kat which was your last post? 😊
A história do SIRESP é tão confusa que toda a gente se confunde. O governo do PS decretou a "nacionalização" do SIRESP - extinção da empresa e as suas funções sendo atribuídas à Secretaria-Geral do Ministério da Administração Interna (SGMAI).
Só que o governo caiu, e o governo em gestão adiou esta medida (indemnizando). Quando o governo AD tomou posse, retomou este processo, pagou à empresa para trabalhar até Abril de 2025 enquanto prepara a SGMAI para ficar com a pasta, o que deveria acontecer até Março de 2025.
O SGMAI não ficou com a pasta no primeiro trimeste, o Governo caiu, e portanto decidiu - em gestão - adiar essa nacionalização até ao fim do ano (pagando nova indemnização).
Mas é só uma questão de tempo?
Num debate na RTP3 entre deputados de PS e PSD, o do PSD queixou-se de como o SIRESP funciona, e disse que é porque o PS o nacionalizou. Só que isso ainda não aconteceu...
...e o PSD não disse que não quer que aconteça. Mas mais do que isso, diz o programa da AD: "A SIRESP, SA será integrada num instituto público, por forma a assegurar que as competências tecnológicas críticas estão internalizadas no Estado e devidamente financiadas".
Isto é, a nacionalização que não conseguiu fazer a tempo quer agora fazê-la (até ao fim do ano, suponho).
Mas então... de que se queixa o deputado do PSD, mesmo?

@prologic I'm very sorry but my feelings are similar to @eapl.me . For a long time I thought that Yarn was part of the Twtxt ecosystem, and not that Twtxt is an extension of Yarn. I don't feel comfortable with what has happened. I didn't expect this change of direction.
The nice part of Twtxt is that it is read by humans, with a simpler format. It's the heart of the social network.
I need to think for a little time, but I'm thinking of stopping my involvement in the community.

@kat MinIO is a good choice for a self-hosted Object Storage (_compatible with S3 APIs_) 👌
@kat Don't be nervous, I make sure I test the shit™ out of things before anyone else does 🤣
gah i've been so busy working on love4eva! TL;DR i switched image backends from the test/dev only module i was using to the S3 one, but with a catch - i'm not using S3 or cloud shit!!! i instead got it to work with minio, so it's a middle ground between self hosting the image uploads & being compatible with the highly efficient S3 module. i'm super happy with it :)
i posted a patreon update that details the changes more: https://www.patreon.com/posts/i-am-now-working-127687614
that post says i didn't update my guide yet but i actually did like right after i made that post lol so you can CTRL+F
for minio stuff there!

@thecanine Sorry, but you were expecting what now?! 🤣
@eapl.me this would be, what, the third time you leave? 😅 I jest around quite a bit, act as Devil's advocate, and am an overall maligned phaun, but please know that I appreciate you, and enjoy your engagement.
We will be here (maybe) if you ever decide to come back.
Once or twice a year, I make an effort to switch from dark mode / black terminals to light mode again.
It usually doesn’t end well, because the contrast is just not as good. There’s a reason that things like professional DAWs or CAD software use a dark theme.
With a heavy bold font, it’s much better:

My font doesn’t get any bolder than this, though. I’d have to make a new variant of it. Mhh. 🤔

I also fundamentally do not believe in the notion that Twtxt should be readable and writable by humans. We've thrown this "argument" around in support of some of the proposals, and I just don't buy it (_sorry_). As an analogy, nobody writes Email by hand and transmits them to mail servers vai SMTP by hand. We use tools to do this. Twtxt/Yarn should be the same IMO.
@eapl.me I honestly believe you are overreacting here a little bit 🤣 I completely emphasize with you, it can be pretty tough to feel part of a community at times and run a project with a kind of "democracy" or "vote by committee". But one thing that life has taught me about open source projects and especially decentralised ecosystems is that this doesn't really work.
It isn't that I've not considered all the other options on the table (_which can still be_), it's just that I've made a decision as the project lead that largely helped trigger a rebirth of the use of Twtxt back in July 1 2020. There are good reasons not to change the threading model right now, as the changes being proposed are quite disruptive and don't consider all the possible things that _could_ go wrong.
July 1st. 63 days from now to implement a backward-incompatible change, apparently not open to other ideas like replacing blake with SHA, or discussing implementation challenges for other languages and platforms.
Finally just closing #18, #19 and #20 without starting a proper discussion and ignoring a 'micro consensus' feels... not right.
I don't know what to think rather than letting it rest (May will be busy here) and focus on other stuff in the future.

@movq Oh, I see. I reckon I accidentally late April-fooled myself. :-D
It's an interesting comparison. I really should have thought about that.
You're right, the rendering would not be very spectacular. :-)
@prologic if I tell you I will lose the edge. I want to mass produce them, as a business venture. LOL.

bon en fait mon script pour convertir ma bibliothèque en mp3 faisait du caca. J'ai revu ma copie en 3 parties : rsync des fichiers, find avec print0 pour la conversion et éviter les soucis de noms de fichier, xargs pour convertir plusieurs fichiers en parallèle, find pour supprimer les fichiers d'origine. Pas très efficace, prend de la place, mais ça marche...

@bender Thank you! I am writting on PR page.
In Spain, electricity has already been restored. Amazing experience! Luckily, I will only have to throw away some food. But there are stories of all kinds. It has been 12 hours where we have gone back to the middle ages.
@prologic Yesterday Spain, Portugal, maybe Morocco, were without electricity for 12 hours. I could not work. My home server was down, my feed and pages were online because of that 😂

Some gopher browsers handle type i and spaces better than others.
@lyse likewise I don't have the energy for a fundamental shift in any of our specifications that would inevitably cause a lot of toil and try and change in our clients implementations and unforeseen problems that we haven't really fully understood:
@movq At this point someone needs to make a decision 🤣 @bender keeps reminding me of that😅

Hi gopher folks. Glad to see you all checking in.
Happy birthday GNU Terry Pratchett!
@movq Agreed, finding the right motivation can be tricky. You sometimes have to torture yourself in order to later then realize, yeah, that was actually totally worth it. It's often hard.
I think if you find a project or goal in general that these kids want to achieve, that is the best and maybe only choice with a good chance of positive outcome. I don't know, like building a price scraper, a weather station or whatever. Yeah, these are already too advanced if they never programmed, but you get the idea. If they have something they want to build for themselves for their private life, that can be a great motivator I've experienced. Or you could assign 'em the task to build their own twtxt client if they don't have any own suitable ideas. :-)
Showing them that you do a lot of your daily work in the shell can maybe also help to get them interested in text-based boring stuff. Or at least break the ice. Lead by example. The more I think about it, the more I believe this to be very important. That's how I still learn and improve from my favorite workmate today in general. Which I'm very thankful of.
@movq Wow, that's sick! Assuming the rendering is correct, I never realized the mountain ranges being this steep and tall. This has real education potential for geography classes. Really cool!
