I do sincerely enjoy that this account is an unapologetically chaotic mix of serious (and non serious) programming, trans literature, and general other transposting.

Embodying poster’s roulette here

there’s probably single digit numbers of people that could be nerdsniped by this post

wait the more unhinged idea is appview in abap right?

Oslo University Hospital caught using trans patients' journals for research purposes:
- Without the patients' consent to participate in research
- Affecting minors
- 1700 of them
- Taking highly sensitive information from said journals

This is a HUGE breach.

I haven't used docker like that in a *long* time tbqh - it's one of those that I _could_ accept but could never really support past the postgres/redis bit* because I wouldn't use it

*rocksdb is embedded in index and, be warned, it takes a while to compile

for added fun with today's discourse, turn on the labeler that shows when a user joined the site, and see if you can guess who was here last time we had this discourse.

time is a flat circle etc etc etc

stop arguing! if youre gonna argue on bsky dot app, just post "meow" instead. trust me, it'll all be better if we do this.

technically it does this on its own if the env variable is set but that’s not really useful for development.
mia.pds.parakeet.at
okay I fixed the threadgates thing this morning, just need to double check the fix for dataloader-rs later.

wrt consumer, it can take flags —indexer (to consume firehose) —backfill, or —labels depending on what you’re using it for. Index needs to be run with cargo r —features server. config can also be done with a Config.toml in each subdir if you don’t want to use env vars
mia.pds.parakeet.at
(here I am doing it again)

big thing is making sure you’re in the subdirs if you’re not using just - just is set up to change working directory to the relevant dir which should make `cargo r` work properly

I need to stop reading code and DMs at 11pm because it’s clear I just can’t
mia.pds.parakeet.at
okay no I’m actually stupid I must’ve cheesed that commit. It should be Option>> (for now, I’m trying to neaten this up)

(cc @quilling.dev I think I misunderstood you yesterday when you asked about this)
mia.pds.parakeet.at
wait is this erroring? maybe my env is cursed.
mia.pds.parakeet.at
aaaa it’s in dataloader-rs/src/runtime.rs iirc but I am a bit stumped because I have never run into that as a compiler error before. thinking it’s a weird cargo workspace issue but idk cargo well enough to diag.

(Re caching - look at parakeet/src/hydration/mod.rs for some deeply unserious English)
mia.pds.parakeet.at
it’s seemed that way to me, unless I’m also missing something. I’ve ended up holding things until I see them, which isn’t ideal (and I think is breaking me in one case but idk)
mia.pds.parakeet.at
(mostly noting because I have some branches sat around with work half done atm)
mia.pds.parakeet.at
not sure if you’ve seen the todo list, but I have it and the tangled issues if you’re looking for stuff (I closed quite a few GL issues earlier bc I moved them but need to wrap the rest up tmrw) or if you come up with something I’ve missed then feel free to shout

Spent some time today coming up with a proper todo list for Parakeet. Don't read _too_ much into the ordering, although the order for Planning and In Progress is the order I intend to work in.

really no problem - I will preemptively apologise as I have done previously at the absolute state of some of the code and the sparse comments
mia.pds.parakeet.at
I’m using gitlab for CI and containers mostly but I do still check in case anything ends up there. I should add a note though tbf.

(also dw haha)
mia.pds.parakeet.at
literally just need one week of calm to get the current batch of stuff finished, that’s it.
mia.pds.parakeet.at
*looks at todo board*
so much to do, so little time
mia.pds.parakeet.at
apropos of nothing maybe I will start doing the digging into getting a kofi set up for parakeet just in case we end up needing a hosted instance

*grumbles in tax*

thinking about jay's "are you paying us?" quip and reading back over the replies to this thread, seeing the excitement this user base had to give this company their money, not even caring about the features, to help foster the community they were growing... while knowing what happens one month later

To grow sustainably, we’re working on a subscription model for premium features like higher-quality video uploads and profile customizations (think colors and avatar frames), but Bluesky will always be free to use. We believe information and conversation should stay accessible to everyone.
