@thisismissem @eyeinthesky

The biggest folly imho is this idea of "let's cram every domain into #ActivityStreams somehow". Flatten everything and project it onto this small set of social primitives that AS defines.

It is once more a choice of pragmatism: "Hey, I've seen it working with Mastodon, so I copied that. And #LinkedData extension mechanism is a handwaved horror show".

So understandable perhaps that we did it. But now we must overcome this trend which has taken stubborn root and drags the ecosystem down.

@smallcircles @eyeinthesky I was mostly thinking of the Follow activity and the following collection: it doesn't contain Follow activities, it contains Actors: https://hachyderm.io/users/thisismissem/following?page=1

In Mastodon the "likes" collection for a Note doesn't even include the Actors, just the count: https://browser.pub/https%3A%2F%2Fhachyderm.io%2Fusers%2Fthisismissem%2Fstatuses%2F115622304738688291%2Flikes

Today @mkljczk introduced a proposal for MAEPs (Mastodon API Enhancement Proposals) which would be similar to the FEP process but for converging on API schema for servers that are not Mastodon but who are using the Mastodon client API
https://codeberg.org/fediverse-pl/maep/issues/1
#fedidev #fediverse #MAEPs

Codeberg.org

Why MAEPs? What should they look like?

# Motivation The Mastodon API has become the de facto standard API for Fediverse microblogging apps[^1], with [more than 20 reimplementations](https://codeberg.org/mkljczk/nicolium/wiki/List-of-Mastodon-API-server-implementations) ## Why is the Mastodon API extended? - Some Mastodon feat...

This is an area I have an unreasonable amount of conversations about over the past years and this proposal seems like a very reasonable shorter term solution to some of the issues we (fediverse meta discussions) have all been talking about lately.

Another statement about #ThriveMessenger
Someone has been saying that its not safe to recommend all because it simply uses SSL/TLS for encryption. They are forgetting that its an early alpha, and once we move into beta it will be using an XMPP protocol most likely. So before anyone starts believing this person in my replies, just know that its safe to use despite what this person is saying.
Edit: Passwords are, not, stored in plain text, so no, the damage is not done.

When it comes to music, the only question is whether Hysteria or Pyromania is a better Def Leppard album. And the answer is, I don’t know.

@whitequark @soatok @sophieschmieg

Ibex has a constant-time mode, which makes operations like divide take their worst-case time in all cases. Making divide variable time is more common on simpler pipelines. For out-of-order chips, knowing that each operation takes a fixed number of cycles makes scheduling simpler and, generally, scheduling and register allocation are more power, timing, and area constrained than functional units, so the tradeoff will be between some divides being faster or having more instructions in flight at a time. The latter is usually better.

Specialised ISAs such as OTBN do make constant-time guarantees for divide. Some DSPs do as well.
