I didn't explain what I meant very well. To scrape a website you don't need to understand robots.txt, implementing robots.txt is something you do to be a good netizen. But to get like info from Lemmy, implementing ActivityPub is a requirement.
Now I'll admit, it's not a great system and I do wish we had something better, but I also don't think "this isn't a good way to communicate preferences" is a good reason to ignore them.
"Although we are still assessing the impact, but overall, I don't think it has any significant impact to our business and to our future performance," Yang said. "So many other countries that have that kind of policies like Brazil and India. So actually it's not a disadvantage, but probably an advantage for Lenovo."
Yang went on to say that because of Lenovo's global manufacturing footprint with facilities in several countries including the U.S., the company is more resilient and flexible allowing it to adapt to different scenarios.
I didn't say it was private, I said it wasn't public, there's a difference. If you asked me what number I was thinking of I'd tell you, but that's not the same thing as the number I'm thinking of being public information. ActivityPub is, at its core, about consent. We have consented to having our data be sent to any person able to serve 200 responses on an inbox endpoint by using instances with open federation. We could, if that makes us uncomfortable, moved to a closed federation system where we only accept request from an allowlisted set of instances, with software that follows the spec's public addressing system.
I use Emacs and love it. It's an amazingly frustrating (and just plain amazing) piece of software, but it's hard to move away from it because it's the only thing like it. Maybe if Lem every gets mature enough I might switch.
I probably wouldn't recommend it though as it doesn't sound like what you're looking for.
He stirs a lot of shit on his Mastodon account and gets into spats with other fedi devs. Just the other day he got into a one-sided spat with the GtS dev because the GtS dev implemented a feature to randomise the number of active users, which led to goblin.technology topping pixelfed.social in the FediDB charts. He then accused them of doing this to undermine him specifically, of wanting to 'de-legitimize Pixelfeds growth', despite it being explicitly a privacy feature.
IDK, how software fetches profile info is implementation dependent, so you'd have to dive into the source code or wait for him to post and see if you get it.
SDL3 is a set of C libraries for doing cross platform gamedev stuff. It abstract over platform APIs for things like window creation/management, input handling, audio etc.
I’m seeing Ghost as a Substack killer, as that is a toxic swamp we need sensible folk off. Nearly everyone who had a newsletter migrated there. Only one listened to their fans and backed straight out again.
I always thought a newsletter was just a specialised blog, but maybe that's wrong. I heard about the Substack allowing Nazis on there, so understandable why people would want off.
