I really need to take a break from programming, but the ideas keep flowing into my head and I find it hard to stop.

Had a fight with the Content-Security-Policy header today. Turns out, I won, but not without sacrifices.

Apparently I can't just insert <style> tags into my posts anymore, because otherwise I'd have to somehow either put nonces on them, or hash their content (which would be more preferrable, because that way it remains static).

I could probably do the latter by rewriting HTML at publish-time, but I'd need to hook into my Markdown parser and process HTML for that, and, well, that's really complicated, isn't it? (It probably is no harder than searching for Webmention links, and I'm overthinking it.)

I'm constantly tired lately. I hope I don't burn out.

Oh, it looks like refresh tokens actually work in Bowl. Nice. I had to add some tweaks to the detection functions, but, oh well...

I really need to make something to syndicate to Bluesky. It seems wonderful to have a new alternative to the now-dead Twitter, but I still want to post to my blog first.

ATProto feels a tiny bit overengineered. It was obviously built to have a semi-centralized reach layer, and that shows in its design. Plain HTML pages and/or microformats2 are a much simpler format, and at times richer than Bluesky's default Lexicon.

I want to gain benefits of both.

Mozilla is playing with fire. I don't like their latest "AI" pivot. AI doesn't exist and never will, and whatever is called AI right now is not it. And is not worth using.

Seriously, "AI text" "detectors"? They don't really work that well. They sometimes also misidentify input texts written by someone not proficient with language as LLM output.

happy birthday to me! 🎉🎉🎉

Tailscale, without any sort of warning or public announcement, seems to have banned all Russian IPs from connecting to its coordination server.

I had to spend an entire workday migrating my setup to Headscale, the self-hosted alternative! I could've spent this time playing games or working, if not for this bullshit!

This "pseudo-sanctions compliance" virtue signalling must stop. All lawyers and PR personnel responsible for this should be fired and shunned. VPNs are critical to allow people in oppressive countries to get truth via the Internet, and just banning them from connecting to VPNs is exactly what the oppressors want.

My markdown parser refuses to accept HTML input for some reason. I wonder why. This is not really compliant with the Markdown standard.

If I were to include a quote made by a language model on my website, I'd like them to be specifically highlighted to make it obvious that the output was not written by a human.

Something like this, maybe?

figure.llm-quote {
  background: #ddd;
  border-left: 0.5em solid black;
  border-image: repeating-linear-gradient(45deg, #000000, #000000 0.75em, #FFFF00 0.75em, #FFFF00 1.5em) 8;
  padding: 0.5em;
  padding-left: 0.75em;
  margin-left: 3em;
}
figure.llm-quote > figcaption {
  font-size: 0.95em;
  font-style: italic;
}
@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
  figure.llm-quote {
    color: #f0f0f0;
    background-color: #242424;
  }
}

And use it like this:

<figure class="llm-quote">
  <blockquote>
<p>I'm an artificial intelligence model known as Llama. Llama stands for "Large Language Model Meta AI."</p>
  </blockquote>
  <figcaption>
    Output generated by Llama 3.2-3B
  </figcaption>
</figure>

To get something like this (I sure hope this will display correctly! I still need to tweak my Markdown parser a bit.):

is it a bad idea to overload the subtraction operator on an MF2 post type to produce a difference between the two posts in the Micropub update format?

An addition of a post and a diff would, of course, patch the post with a diff, for symmetry.

Just realized Kittybox doesn't even display the p-summary field anywhere yet. What a shame. Gotta fix that later.

So nice to see random websites support Webmentions!

Fun fact: I'm building a Micropub posting app, and one of it's features is letting the user automatically draft a summary for the post they're writing; I wonder what would happen if I fed it this post...
