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
I know namespaces are nice, but we only should have conflicting local names for the most trivial stuff.
bedroom::Plumbus and bathroom::Plumbus are probably fine.
But when I have bedroom::PlumbusInserter and bathroom::PlumbusInserter it's *guaranteed* that my IDE will import the wrong name and resulting in hours of debugging because nothing makes sense.
#programming
Thinking about the last tweet, not imposing exemplary punishment on the first person who published a `latest` tag on anything was probably a major mistake of humanity.
TIL about
@kagihq 's Redirect feature that finally allows me to land on the latest available documentation page on
docs.rs for crates where latest is broken.
(Interestingly, the samples provided for this feature are also based on
docs.rs URLs 🤔)
@christopherkunz That's it thx! Based on the Update Guide this should fix the problem independently from the definition updates, so if you can repro on a clean system with this DLL version that's bad.
