Uma dica bem nichada: o navegador de modo-texto Lynx também abre links #Gopher. Uma ótima maneira de bisbilhotar um tipo de conteúdo mais simples, uns blogs discretos… é perfeito para qualquer tubérculo microprocessado. Começando com o servidor da Floodgap, não tem erro.

@screwtape Are you not an #orgmode fan? You already have a #web / #gopher / #gemini home on #sdf and maybe a #git on git.sdf.org? There's a fedithing called #writefreely and #wordpress has a #fedi plugin etc. Generating any or all of these from inside #emacs is presumably a solved problem and here on #mastodon is a good place to announce / tie it all together..

I just stood up a bare bones agate server. So exciting to have the DNS resolution propagate faster than I could do port forwarding and run the server.

Now to make it more of a service by creating a user/group, setting up a systemd service and rotating logging.

Then on to content building!

I guess I'll take down the fledgling hole

Fedi question time. I'm looking for resources in creating an alternate internet, since this one is getting pretty shitty. I'm hip to and . What other technologies are out there? What groups can I collaborate with?

Thanks!

I enjoy the graphics of the wttr.in service so I wrote little script to write the output to a text file and then include it in the gophermap.

This is a neat way to add "dynamic" content to .

I registered for a #Storygraph account, and my Goodreads library is being imported and within days I should get an email.
DM me if you have a StoryGraph account and would be interested in co-following.

Ken Thompson vuela un MiG.

Además de pionero del cómputo, del
lenguaje B, compiladores, Multics, UNIX, Plan9, UTF8, Go, máquinas de ajedrez computado, etc, a Ken Thompson le gustaba volar aviones. Despuntó el vicio en esto de ir a Rusia para volar en un MiG-29 Fulcrum.

Como si fuese un relato de un viaje, aprovechó la web de los Bell Labs para contar la aventura:

How could we have a timeline algorithm without post re-ranking? As you see in the figures, by relying on sentence embeddings you can have a content-based re-ranking of a timeline. You basically apply the “style” of a set of statuses to another list, by putting on top those statuses which are overall closer to the ones you provided. For privacy purposes I did not show a re-ranked public timeline: I did it with my own messages, re-ranking them according to the “style” of and .

So, what can you do with ? The first thing is embeddings visualization. In these pictures you can see a 2D plot of embeddings calculated on four different timelines: home (blue, only people I follow), local (orange, all posts from my instance, which is fosstodon.org), public (red, federated posts from people followed by users of my instance), and the timeline that I got searching for the hashtag (light blue).
