I think the code I refactored works a lot better now, but also it's still such a fucking mess. This (parallel) media streaming stuff is just so complex

which in turn means I'm not a great *technical* writer, because I haven't been forced to practice that.
And a lot of what I have published ends up being long rambles I kinda never finished but just published anyways because I'm not ever going to finish them.
But I also don't feel like practicing this because what's the point, right..

i think im a decent writer, but I end up only really doing it when I have to, so mainly uni reports.
Thought about it and I think it comes down to external validation, where I'd rather do programming because it's at least a useful end result for myself (and maybe others), whereas with writing I don't get that much satisfaction from just doing it, and so far I haven't felt like any of the blogs/project writeup thingies I've published have really provided much value for anyone else either, so I just end up not doing it

@dreadpirateyarr @schratze scunthorpe

quite a lot of refactoring progress today, working matrix media download endpoint again both from local and federated servers, with Redis backed in-memory caching

@streetlite @wgahnagl real "pepe was just co-opted by the alt-right" energy

@Shrigglepuss @ghost_bird that's a yikes oof, I was browsing and they seem to at least suspend/silence all the recent fediblock shitposter instances

@Shrigglepuss @ghost_bird yeah it's kinda weird, they also mention "This is a highly moderated server like Mastodon.Art/Artisian.chat" but then "We only defederate servers if they are deemed a high risk (...) or certainly break our rules"

@ghost_bird @Shrigglepuss it's https://sakurajima.moe/@beneaththetangles

idk im just stringing words together.. if you think about it im basically AI. why don't i get hyped

@researchfairy yep.. fucked up, so even the miserable techbro excuse for consent of "you should've just opted-out of scraping" doesn't work

don't know who wrote this shit more than a year ago (me) but i'm heavily considering just rewriting the project from a clean directory instead of a massive in-place refactoring

taking my caterpills to turn into a butterfly eventually

@researchfairy out of curiosity, and absolutely not in a victim-blaming way, does scholar.social set the global "opt out of search indexing" setting? wondering if they even respect that
