@kat wow, she is so extremely talented, not even funny!
@movq You reckon that's a real possibility? π€
@prologic right. I wonder what prompted the measure. Perhaps Microsoft doesn't want any scrapper but Copilot to be lurking around? That might even sound as anti-competitive. I wonder how long will it take for lawsuits to kick in.
@bender I normally don't myself either, but that saide, I think that's kind of @movq's point right? This new unauthenticated rate limit is absurd! π± You may as well just fucking 403 Forbidden
and be done with it π€£
@prologic that will not be a problem; as long as it doesn't affect authenticated users it wouldn't make a difference. But we are comparing apples and eggs here. I don't access GitHub while unauthenticated, but I can see how others might. It comes across as anti-web in general.
@bender Basically the way I'm reading this is 1 RPM
. This is a rather aggressive rate limit actually. This basically makes Github inaccessible and useless for basically anything unless you're logged in. You can basically kiss "pursuing" casually, anonymously goodbye.
Imagine if I imposed that kind of rate limit on twtxt.net?! π€£
@movq, "60 requests per hour", eh? Was that a thing (that is, unauthenticated access to GitHub)?! I know I am on the minority, perhaps, as I rarely (or never) access GitHub unauthenticated.
@movq Also the so-called "deadline" isn't set it stone. We're all busy people with day jobs and lives, so we may have to move it anyway π
@movq hmm, I still see the first screenshot at my end. Is that something upcoming, or perhaps being rolled out slowly?
@xuu Good point! What did you have in mind? π
@javivf use 6697
as port, make sure it is using TLS to connect.
@javivf Sorry. π Meet me on IRC at irc.mills.io
in #edgeguard π I'm @james there π
@prologic where on IRC? Network, channel, nick? IRC is vast! Itβs like saying, βmeet me in Australia, and we go from there!β π
@javivf Hit me up on IRC or something and we'll get started π
@kat so, where is the site? Show us, show us! I use Hugo exclusively, just a binary. My sites also build upon a commit, on my own VPS. π
@movq Yeah I actually use sift a lot these days for most "searching" -- at least code and text searching. For finding files by name I still use find | grep
.
@kat It's also perfectly safe to nuke your cache as well. i.e: rm data/cache*
and it's all good, things will just get rebuilt π
@kat I totally recommend zs π€£ It powers all my sites! π https://twtxt.dev https://yarn.socia/ https://prologic.dev etc π
@kat Hmmm Please if this happens again, help me reproduce it. Any clues in the logs? Hmm? π§ My own pod has been running flawlessly for weeks now π
@movq Same here, you do get used to things over time and build a sort-of "muscle memory". But you're right, maybe they have terrible interfaces and usage options? π€
@prologic you are certainly a special case of a luddite. Or you like to self-punish. Or both! LOL.
@bender Yeah I know π’ Don't have Disney+, hell I don't have many streaming services at all really π€£
@bender Ahh I see. That reminds me, I was going to start watching something someone recommended here hmmm π§
@prologic LOL. It is from the Severance, AppleTV+ series. I am about to finish watching it with my kid---well, what's available for seeing. The series is still ongoing. I recommend it!
@kat Ahh but you're like one of a very few that actually own domains and do interesting things π
@bender How do you explain mine then? Unless it was registered before me, then let go of and I re-registered it later? π€
@prologic I will pull the email. The year is about right.
@bender I'm not sure this is accurate, if you lookup mine:
$ whois shortcircuit.net.au 2>&1 | grep -i creat
created: 1986-03-05
I think this has to be the registrar's creation date no? π€
@terron este gato habla Castellano, o Catalan? Esa oracion suena extranya en Castellano. Yo hubiera escrito:
"En estos momentos, no sΓ© si le estΓ‘ pidiendo a un dios que libere su pueblo felino, o estΓ‘ mirando una paloma."
@kat woodworking is completely down @lyse ally. You could really say that he was born with a saw in his hands. Or an axe, I donβt remember.
@movq a first edition signed Superman comic book, carefully folded just to fit, but not damaged enough to have lost its value?
@kat You'll have to forgive me π My vision impairment is getting in the way of seeing this "prompt box" thingy π€£
@sorenpeter Hah π Just like how we 'all just talk about Twtxt right? π€£
@kat This sounds cool! π Can you show me? π€

@kat Look into using something like pyrra for creating and managing SLO(s) with Prometheus π I use this myself actually, plus I also use HetrixTools for external monitoring with SLO-style measures via status.mills.io π
@kat I'd recommend alerting off of Prometheus π
