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

@swapgs You know it's a good show when the openers could be the main act! RIP Riley :(

Default auto-generated CC on YT music videos is a great way to demonstrate how much Google's AI sucks.

@eduzsh when you do an LLM "fix", "works for me" is good enough and you don't have to consider any of the contribution requirements (like not introducing bugs at places you don't personally use). so I think it's more likely that people will churn out a bunch of fixes that are slightly wrong in different ways. it is true that while some of the fixes will be fine, they'll never make it back to the project anyway.

@jcoglan not a frequent obsidian user, maybe there's some config for this?

coincidentally, I just slop-coded a python static file server that live renders markdown+mermaid in the browser. It doesn't have embedded mermaid (inside md) support yet, but if you think you could use it I'll publish it sometime today.

LLM anti-pattern:

- #FOSS drops, everyone happy
- #FOSS bugs surface, bitrot needs handling
- Instead of contributing fixes, users use #LLM to solve their specific issues
- #FOSS never gets fixed

Bonus: bugs accumulate so much that the project eventually dies, while everyone regenerates parts of it from scratch on-demand with LLM.

@acsawdey I'm also thinking about using this as a compat layer between e.g. IBMi/PASE and x86. Feels like it'd match pretty well with IBMi's SLS too?
