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

@TarkabarkaHolgy add some engineering students that experiment with the currently relevant field of mounting lasers on t-rexes and I'm sold!

@slotos @mttaggart thanks, I haven't looked at the implementation details yet. At a higher level I still find the direction of providing a "standard" for integrating llms right.

@slotos @mttaggart What's the original wheel?

Modern storage is quite amazing:

I wrote some scripts to clone all public Git repos I've ever bookmarked. The whole thing fits on a pendrive.

@mttaggart I think it's pretty easy to show useful features (e.g.: translation; some search scenarios) and it's hard to outrule there aren't even more possibilities. Whether this all worth the (external) costs is another question of course.

@mttaggart I don't think outright rejection is reasonable, but instead of integration we (once again) should follow the unix philosophy: give me standalone tools with good interfaces, and I'll decide when/how I'll use them together with my other tools. (MCP kind of fits this?)
