The idea being to provide compliance checks such as licensing and such, although I guess it would allow for checking for potential source code leaks as well and as a plagiarism detector.

It works by running a program over your source code which produces line by line hashes, with the result uploaded and then scanned over. The result is a report indicating what percentage of code was identified as copied both on a project and on an individual file level, with the identified source and its location. As such if nothing is leaked there is no ability to reconstruct the source code as it is a hash.

It works over 200+ languages, and while working over line by line currently can be expanded out to work in different ways.

Looking for interested parties to try it out (see my bio for contact) in addition to the current ones I have. Even if its just you wanting to kick the tires.

The levels were picked to provide the customers a comfortable ride, based on reports from other planes and whatever other sources they have.

They have since been told to save on fuel and so don't do this, not "gliding" but lowering the thrust to save fuel when descending which exposes people to the rougher air for longer periods of time.

Please correct my understanding if this is not the case.

My understanding is that's the cause of the additional turbulence you see these days, since they glide into land rather than stepping down to avoid turbulence. I think they also have planes more tightly packed now subjecting you to more wind vortex from the other planes.

I’m just glad im not the only one to wonder this. Perhaps that’s the issue. It feels wrong for some reason despite not being an issue in practice.

I suspect that the above along with the cost is why it hasn’t happened. Although you do miss a lot of what’s going on by not being on one of the larger instances.

A lot of the protections in ActivityPub are listed in the spec as "should" not "must". For example edits and deletes.

I think it should be assumed that when you publish content over activitypub it is now public. Any exception that it is private is asinine since you are literally publishing it to other servers.

Using a protocol designed to distribute content with the expectation that you remain in control of it is asinine. If you really want to control it, either allow list federate with only instances you know are in the same circle (IE make your own smaller fediverse), or move to a private forum.

I argued with the Fediverse about this several months ago, and raised all of the same problems in the article with them. Only to be shouted at, doxed, abused, insulted and attacked. I still think that what I experienced would be enough to drive some people to self harm. The level of toxic interactions on the fedivese was the worst I have ever experienced on the internet.

As such I find the fact that there is a freakout over what has been predicted multiple times hilarious. I welcome Meta joining. The sooner people on the fedivese grow up and realize the reality of what is coming the better.

I really like ActivityPub. I really like the fedivese idea. However when you visit you rapidly discover its full of the really annoying people from twitter, and people with "ex tumblr poster" in their bios.

Forget where this came from but it sums it up perfectly.

    Fediverse: We are open for federation and you to join!
    Meta: Ok here is what we are doing with instagram.
    Fediverse: Not that kind of open!

Its closer to a personal diary of the things I do technology wise, and where I put anything I have written together so I have a record of it.

Its always so much nicer when I leave the Air. Everything is so much smoother.

I did add it to another search I run to stop spam and that was very effective.

Just pretend it’s 2013 and you got a chip with some nice overclocking potential you don’t really want to use because you don’t like heat or the noise it brings.

I actually need them sorted as well hence they are added to an array, and deduplicated.

I had a look and didn’t see any obvious way to eliminate them hence the initial function, and the subsequent faster one.

I actually appreciate comments like yours. I did indeed make a mistake. Just as mentioned never intended this post to end up here. Hence the spelling errors and problems like this.

There is nothing stopping this from being implemented in ActivityPub too, and in fact there are already pub/pri keys there to do this. However you still need to trust that the instance you are on and the one your are communicating with play by the rules.

I tend to go back a re-read some posts years after I published them. It’s especially helpful when working on open source projects, as I tend to include warts and all so I can remember what not to do and why.

Very impressed with what I have seen of it so far, and the founder's of it have an impressive amount of passion and drive to deliver. You can read more about it here as covered by the washington post https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2022/10/16/math-aca...
