infosex.exchange <3

You are probably looking for the infosec.exchange Mastodon instance

This host is mostly for my random stuff, and in little part acts like a well-intentioned placeholder for the typosquatted domain.

Discoverability and Archiving

Currently I'm using this host for saving the items from my own feeds to the Wayback Machine and provide in-links for search engines. I hate that I have to do this, but the non-sense ideology of Mastodon pretty much ruined the search feature for Fediverse as a whole, and this wasn't changed by the fact that they owned their mistake and implemented search eventually.

Yes, I (or anyone else) could do similar things with other peoples published feeds, regardless of the tantrum. No, you can't defederate this, because the process doesn't rely on an instance.

Gluttony Section for Search Engines

@mumblegrepper Is it though? I remember that "pipe /dev/random to unix tools" paper as the original sin (which is random + open ended)?

Amazingly, it's weekend and I kind of miss coding Rust.

If this is not Stockholm syndrome I don't know what is.

Anyway, I promised to finish my next #REshare exporter in a week two weeks ago so let's get back to Python!

@amanda @b0rk Cross references, yes! How do I use those? Also, I just looked at `man man` and noticed that there is no ToC ("Is there even something about hotkeys in this thing?").

@sassdawe @ludicity 100%, I definitely not meant to piss on sw engineers in particular, median skill isn't great industry-wide.

@b0rk I miss a hotkey to search for "identifiers", e.g. if I want to search for `-x` I don't want to see `-X --xenomorph`. The situation is even worse for one character identifiers/symbols (think tmux, bash, etc.).

I also find it impossible to remember section/page arguments (argument order + what number means what in `man N printf`).
