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.

@cR0w I think we'd need at least another digit given the shit I've seen on the open web in the last few decades...

@jerry CDN's could come up with some clever compression/caching algorithm they could turn on every couple of decades!

@greg @algernon Thanks that's another data point then! I also remember having fun, and also being highly impressed by what one of the Markov-based tools could produce. In fact, I remember our reactions were really similar to those of early articles about ChatGPT (e.g. "it's arguing with me about X and making kind of good points").

This post by @algernon is a surprising confirmation of one of my theories about why many of "us" aren't really impressed by #LLM's:

https://chronicles.mad-scientist.club/tales/conversations-with-an-artificial-intelligence/

Thing is, we've seen this before, played with it, found its limits and got bored. Of course LLM's provide much better results, but I still don't think the underlying principle is that much different.

Same with shitcoins: we designed a proof-of-work system as teenagers for password cracking, so the principle is not magical to us and this goes against the marketing.
