@quark I do have an idea for syncing this ๐ค
@bender It isn't @aelaraji's fault at all here ๐ I think the only way I can improve this somewhat is by introducing a similar convergence that I believe @movq built for Jenny which would fetch the mentioned feed temporarily to see if it contains the subject being replied to (in case it's not in the cache).
I'll think about doing this too, but I have to do it carefully so as not to cost too much in terms of resources or performance...
@bender Nah it's there but it's a reply to a thread that isn't found here hmmm ๐ค
@bender Well... I don't believe it's possible to prevent or avoid all system accidents. However, managing system safety and putting in control structures goes a long way ๐
@bender Not quite sue I understand your reaction ๐คฃ
These ideas are dr the two books:
- Drift into Failure: From Hunting Broken Components to Understanding Complex Systems by Sidney Dekker (2011)
- Engineering a Safer World by Nancy Leveson (2011)
The former I haven't read. The later I haven't finished reading ๐
And the idea of asynchronous evolutions comes from system accidents where control failures emerge when system structure, constraints, and evolution are poorly managed.
The idea of drift into failure is small normal adaptations erode safety over time without people noticing.
@bender allow me to try and explain over several Twts...
Here's an example of what you end up with (I don't follow the feed, but it's in my pod's cache)
@kat Yes see UPGRADE.md -- I believe @xuu is now running this live after a couple of hiccups and a bug fix. So yeah if you can, that would be cool, basically looking for early beta testers (I was the alpha tester ๐คฃ)
@andros Thanks! ๐ Just re-followed @important_dev_news ๐
@bender Oh yes! ๐ That was completely fucked up haha ๐คฃ
@abucci Haha you'll have to forgive me, this thread is over a week old now and I'm a bit lost now ๐คฃ even though I can now see the entire thread, what are we saying was messed up and is garbled? ๐ค
@kat OMG! You used the video capabilities of yarnd
๐คฃ Nice! ๐
@kat Ahh my vision impairment (blind) would prevent me from even appreciating anything in paper form ๐ข
@kat my rule of thumb is try not to drink any caffeine past midday. This is basically based on experience and the half-life of caffeine in your system.
@aelaraji sounds like a panic attack to me ๐คฏ
@bender I wish we could fire presidents and Prime Minister's when the need arises and the people recognize it needs to happen rather than having to wait for the next election
@bender Holy moly ๐คฃ Bases on your description you've eaten and drunk way more than I have today where all I've had so far is three coffees today
@lyse Love those green roll'n hills ๐ Btw, what's that rickety 'ol shed in 18? ๐ค
My Hypothesis for why registries didn't work and why they still won't really work today is because the bend the rules of "true" decentralization a bit. Users have to pick one or more registries to "register" to. Why would they want to do this? What is their incentive to do so? Then on the other hand, users need a client that has registry support, but now which registry or sets of registries do you choose?
@bender I believe that's the only way. We'll deal with it as it comes up I think.
@bender I can fix and make that work in the parser too. But I'm no longer sure how to cater for the general case. It's too much to support all punctuation whilst at the same time as other contradicting rules. For example you cannot both support .
in nicknames and then expect to be able to to end a mention with a .

@bender Yes I know ๐คฃ It's okay, we just have to build better parsers ๐
