I wrote up the requirements: essentially one small server process, a couple people, and the capacity to host 3-5 TB of static files. words.filippo.io/run-sunlight/

I am seriously considering taking legal action against the Sharkey Development Team.
I know how often some troll on the internet threatens to "get a lawyer," and we all know how empty those claims usually are.
But I’m not just anyone. I gave $1,000 to support this project based on promises that were never fulfilled — only to be harassed by them. Now they’re violating my privacy and flooding my inbox with junk.
I have both the incentive and the motivation to move forward with this.

It is not the money I want. It is the principle. If I can prevent anyone else from going through this, it will have been worth it. Furthermore, some of these issues are criminal issues, not civil.

Das Bild zeigt einen Mann in einem blauen Pullover, der sich mit einem robotischen Terminator aus der Filmreihe Terminator aus dem Jahr 2015 fotografiert. Der Terminator hat ein skelettartiges Aussehen mit roten Augen und mechanischen Teilen. Im Hintergrund ist eine zerstörte Stadt mit brennenden Gebäuden und Rauch zu sehen. Der Mann lächelt und scheint glücklich zu sein, während er sich mit dem Terminator ablichtet. Das Bild hat einen Polaroid-Effekt mit einem weißen Rahmen.

"The loss of ice releases the pressure on underground magma chambers and makes eruptions more likely. This process has been seen in Iceland (...) "As glaciers retreat due to climate change, our findings suggest these volcanoes go on to erupt more frequently and more explosively."

Alternative social networks like the fediverse and Bluesky have constructed a narrative of how growth of the network happens: when Musk does something particularly evil or stupid, people migrate in a wave looking for an ethical alternative. But what happens when that pattern breaks down?
I look at how this narrative came to be, how it reflects a specific time period, and how this period might just be over now

The image shows a close-up of a branch from a plant bearing clusters of berries. The branch is adorned with green leaves that have visible veins and serrated edges. The berries are round and vary in color, with some appearing green and others a deep red, indicating different stages of ripeness. The background is slightly blurred, showing a fence and some greenery, suggesting an outdoor setting. The lighting is natural, highlighting the textures of the leaves and the glossy surface of the berries.

I thought Bluesky was doing well?🤔
I've never gotten any interactions when I post there so I barely ever post. If this graph is correct, it makes sense why I don't get any interactions.😳

If we get zero new logs, we'll finish the work on Verifiable Indexes (which replace the need to scrape the whole log, drastically reducing outbound) and try again next year.

in reply to Filippo Valsorda • • •@mei the obvious-to-me option, since you're already tracking uptime and how long the log's been running, to put up a leaderboard with these numbers up
a lot of engineers _love_ to make number go up and stay high
moreover, you can then use this institutionally as a proxy indicator of your ability to run a reliable service

in reply to ✧✦Catherine✦✧ • • •@whitequark @mei there are already official Google uptime numbers! OTOH I’m not sure I want folks to target 100% uptime unnecessarily. It’s good to update the kernel sometimes.

People are reading more into my off-hand pager comment than I intended. Google asks for two email addresses of “representatives” just so that there’s a fallback if eg there’s a vulnerability and the main person in on vacation. They don’t actually page anyone. It’s fine if the SRE work is done by a single person in the end.
