bkil aaronpk: Now talking about licensing _is_ iwdev/webdev talk indeed! 😛
#
bkil So the Free Software Foundation had originally used the GPL to cover their documentation as well until they invented a specific license to cope with this special need. The GFDL was used by most common distribution documentation back in the days and most Wikipedia articles were also dual-licensed with that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Free_Documentation_License
#
bkil Creative Commons was published much later, in 2002. Interesting how FLOSS-advocate artists have released their albums under random licenses in the 90s before this.

[snarfed] Followup from #indieweb, probably everyone using the Twitter API can expect this soon: https://twittercommunity.com/t/app-suspended-asking-us-to-sign-up-for-the-new-free-basic-or-enterprise-access/189362
#
aaronpk you got this even tho you're using v2 already, yea?
#
[snarfed] no, I'm not on v2
#
[snarfed] I did maybe 1/2 to 2/3 of the work to migrate, but stopped once the chaos started in Nov
#
[snarfed] the text of the email seemed to be pretty clearly about my app and the access plans though, not the API version
#
aaronpk lovely

bkil [tantek]: About hyphens vs. underscores in the title of wiki articles. Actually, the PostgreSQL backend of the default indexer used by the Synapse Matrix server has a very simple tokenizer that similarly amalgamates across underscores (just like in hashtags), so we use hyphens as word delimiters there for better SEO.

[tantek] sure, this is more about human readability and web search (not site search) discoverable

[KevinMarks] [tantek] more thoughts on markdown footnotes https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2023/04/testing-better-markdown-footnotes/
#
Loqi [preview] [@edent] Help Wanted! Testing Better Markdown Footnotes
#
[tantek] [KevinMarks] I found zero in that post or what it linked to about the authoring - or how you write them, which tbh is supposed to be the whole point of Markdown, and missing from so many "Markdown" "improvements" 😞
#
[tantek] also title text is not the same as a footnote, I think that's a poor place to put footnotes
#
[KevinMarks] https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2021/08/footnotes-in-markdown/
#
[tantek] ugh extra brackets, even uglier for plain text

@voxpelli ↩️ To be fair, the content and interactions on Twitter locks the content and interactions into the platform whereas Mastodon / Fediverse can be bridged onto anything and is pretty much just RSS gone social. It can even bridge to the @indiewebcamp world using https://fed.brid.gy/ (twitter.com/_/status/1643742687991037952)
#
IWDiscordRelay <c​apjamesg#4492> [ender] could we one day have a mathematical formula that describes GPT?
#
Gorro_Rojo[theyi I mean, I don't know how transformers work, but aren't neural nets just a bunch of matrix multiplications? isn't any neural net technically just an algebraic function?
#
prologic Pretty much
#
[snarfed] The training data, supervision, RHLF, etc are just as important, if not more
#
[snarfed] -> #indieweb-chat
