Opinion / Question time...

Do you think Mu (µ)'s native compiler and therefore emitted machine code "runtime" (which obviously adds a bit of weight to the resulting binary, and runtime overheads) needs to support "runtime stack traces", or would it be enough to only support that in the bytecode VM interpreter for debuggability / quick feedback loops and instead just rely on flat (no stacktraces) errors in natively built compiled executables?

So in effect:

Stack Traces:

• Bytecode VM Interpreter: ✅
• Native Code Executables: ❌

When I try to login to PayPal I now see:

Please enable JS and disable any ad blocker

Here's the thing. PayPal takes fees from transactions and payments received and sent.

I have very right not have ads shoved in my face for something that isn't actually free in the first place and costs money to use. If PayPal would like to continue to piss off folks me like, then I'll happily close my PayPal account and go somewhere else that doesn't shove ads in my face and consume 30-40% of my Internet bandwidth on useless garbage/crap.

TNO Threading (draft):
Each origin feed numbers new threads (tno:N). Replies carry both (tno:N) and (ofeed:<origin-url>). Thread identity = (ofeed, tno).

• Roots: (tno:N) (implicit ofeed=self).
• Replies: (tno:N) (ofeed:<url>).
• Clients: increment tno locally for new threads, copy tags on reply.
• Subjects optional, not required.

@itsericwoodward Also just a heads up, GIF(s) aren't supproted as an Avatar type on yarnd (what runs twtxt.net). I'd change this to something that's more supproted like PNG, JPEG, etc.

After many weeks and probably at least a hundred hours of research, discussions and in-person viewing, I think I've finally come up with my Final Choices (shortlist) of a Hybrid Camper / Caravan that I think will suit my family and that I'll enjoy (far less work for me to setup and teardown). The one at the top of the list I'm leaning towards os the SWAG SCT16 Family 4B #Camping #Campers

I’m thinking of building a hardened peering protocol for Yarn.social’s yarnd: pods establish cryptographic identities, exchange signed /info and /twt payloads with signature verification, ensuring authenticity, integrity, and spoof-proof identity validation across the distributed network.

I asked ChatGPT what it knows about Twtxt 😂 And surprisingly it's rather accurate:

Twtxt is a minimalist, decentralized microblogging format introduced by John Downey in 2016. It uses plain text files served over HTTP—no accounts, databases, or APIs. In 2020, James Mills (@prologic) launched Yarn.social, an extended, federated implementation with user discovery, threads, mentions, and a full web UI. Both share the same .twtxt.txt format but differ in complexity and social features.
