It’s one of the reasons in fact I’ve been working on bob so I have a very concrete and strong foundation for how these things work, how they behave and how bad or good they can be. I am on-purpose building bob to be not only a decent coding tool and general task completion tool, but with serious security boundaries, sanitation, auditing and compliance. If I’m going to succeed at building autoonmous agents that can cope with a wider array of varying inputs (mostly natural language, some structural language) then it needs to be both a) Safe and b) Robust

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’m very curious…

What I like about this whole computer stuff is that you can explore how
things work. You can dig through problems and solve them. Nothing is
more satisfying than finally understanding something after you scratched
your head for some hours.

Surely you could do the same with AI? Tinker with how it works, study it, understand it, build your own and realize what it really is (without all the big tech hype)?

@falsifian@www.falsifian.org Congrats! 🥳

Hmm I think it’s a bug in the Javascript. It’s meant to be ![title](url)

Does that work?

I turned off indexing and anonymous access i think? 🧐

@bender@twtxt.net Lets bend it!

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me I never saw the point of a registry to be honest, as it defeated the point of what I believed to be a truly decentralised non-social social ecosystem. What can and does work however is a search engine and crawler. I used to run one, but I took it down, mostly because it got expensive to operate, at least the implementation I built… Maybe one day i’ll try again with a SQLite backend.

What @bender@twtxt.net said ☝️

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me We see and read yout mutterings just fine 😅

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me I mean, if you’re talking about a “Follow me” button you can put on your site somewhere and it somehow magically™ works, yeah we haven’t figured out a good way to do this honestly.

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me Exactly! 👍

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me

Replies aren’t actually broken, I just… need to add myself to the follow list?! That’s quite counter-intuitive and (IIRC) not mentioned in the docs. But… It seems to be working now, which is nice (I still don’t know how webmentions and webfinger works, so can’t speak about this so far)

yarnd (what runs here at twtxt.net) actually does this automatically by default. I think it’s just an implementation detail to be honest. There’s nothing about this in the specs over at https://twtxt.dev

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me Haha 😆 I mean I try to, as time poor as I am 🤣 Welcome to our little corner of the Yarniverse as some call it 😅

Wel… It was a very comfortable night’s sleep 😴

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I know it’s crazy right 🤯 these things are just tools. They’re not even remotely intelligent at all. In fact they are actually quite stupid. If you feed it garbage you get garbage out! The only interesting thing is that you get somewhat intelligible garbage out 😂

@bender@twtxt.net exactly! 😂

sleeping in my van tonight, which is parked outside the front of our house just as a test from overnight 😂

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh dear god have we lost our way 🤣 I mean seriously?! Can we no longer think for ourselves? This isn’t even “AI Slop” this is just poor pathetic lack of discipline 🤦‍♂️ – And, frankly, no leadership.

wow! 🤯

@kiwu@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net Thank you! 🙏

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org That’s the plan!

@bender@twtxt.net Indeed 😂

We got at our new van!!! 🥳

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me You need to use the RFC3339 format. I would recommend you read the specs at https://twtxt.dev – This is what is used by many moden clients these days 😅

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me But I am gad you at least have figured out how to have a feed description and avatar, that’s always nice 👍

@rdlmda@rdlmda.me You also minimally need to be calculate message hases at some point, if you want to form threads that is (copying existing ones is easy) 😅
