@annika it's cute. I love what punkt are doing (https://www.punkt.ch/en/products/mp02-4g-mobile-phone/) but they're just so expensive, this seems a better option
That Punkt phone is really cool. If I actually talked on the phone ever I might consider it! Most of my voice communication happens via Zoom these days tho. -

@manton I’m still not quite sure why it wasn’t a good idea!
Two reasons:
1: The only data in the Pingback payload is two URLs. Wrapping this an an XML container that's also doing RPC is incredibly overkill for sending just two values. That's why Webmention went with form-encoded instead, like regular HTML forms, which is about the most compact way you can send two values.
2: Pingback never went far enough with the user experience of displaying them. At best, you'd see a snippet of the text near the link, which it turns out wasn't really that useful or contextual. Once social media started taking off, the interactions there became far richer than seeing the pingback excerpt, so people abandoned them. With Webmention, we're explicitly focusing on enabling the kind of rich interactions people do on social media instead. -

Recommendations on lightweight git self-hosting? I want something for my personal projects that is easy to maintain but still has a nice web UI for grabbing/cloning/PRs. Could do issue tracking separately if need be.
definitely Gitea. Been running it a few years now. -

I've uploaded a handful of photos to Google Maps and one of them is inexplicably getting a ton of views recently.
I added the photo in May 2018. It hit 10K views on Nov 5, 20K on Nov 19, 33K today.
That happened to me too! It's also funny that Google keeps emailing me about the stats.
Feels a little like the magic YouTube algorithm deciding to promote stuff randomly. -

Typosquatted Python libraries exfiltrating PGP and SSH keys https://www.zdnet.com/article/two-malicious-python-libraries-removed-from-pypi/
Same stuff as the event-stream incident, effectively. This is only going to get worse; object capability security is no longer an optional thing; we need it to survive as a society.
How does ocap help? Wouldn't the attacker just exfiltrate the ocap token?
Seems like a better idea would be to use a hardware security model to contain the private keys, only letting the machine use them but not copy them out.
