The feelings of foreboding that comes with crowds gathering and fireworks being set up a stone's throw from my apartment. No sleep tonight.
Happy 4 July!
Humbug.
Last night a USAmerican told me brexit is fair because it's okay if people want to have their own little towns for their own people and keep others out.

My jaw dropped and I only picked it up enough to write this about 12 hours later.
All is bugs.
Decided to try actually saving money for a couple of months so I'm going to see how long I can go without doing a grocery shop and easy only stuff I have already. So mostly things I can make with flour (which is a lot actually) and lentils. Also, roommates' food with a pledge to replace next week :)

This episode of Voyager where Q is continuously sexist toward Janeway, was it funny when it was made or was it always appallingly real?
In other news: "this ship will not survive the formation of the cosmos.
You can tell it's been a thesis writing sort of weekend. I made two types of cookies, went for a run, and finished a budgeting app that reads my /stuff feed and tells me when I've bought too much.
Hey American friends who ask where I'm from and think it's funny that it's Boston, my hometown is so racist it made it into the New York Times

I've been working with csarven on the Linked Data Notifications (LDN) spec, a protocol which lets you receive and use RDF notifications with your server or personal data store. There are three roles a piece of software can play (any or all of) in this: sender, receiver, or consumer.
The sender generates the body of the notification as a JSON-LD blob, discovers where to send it based on who the notification is for, and makes a POST
request with this payload. Errol is my PHP implementation of a sender. It has some bugs and is designed really as a UI for sending test data, so it's not particularly interesting if you aren't a developer. I've also helped with dokieli, a JavaScript document editor/annotator which sends notifications when you leave an annotation. One of my academic articles is up here as a dokieli document which you can annotate.
The receiver is what lives in my data space, where these JSON-LD payloads end up. The main part of a receiver's job is to host an Inbox - a script that processes incoming posts from senders, and also exposes previously received notifications when asked for. Receivers can do other cool stuff like verify a notfication is true, filter out spam, decide what to bother keeping based on the sender or type of notification and restrict who can access the notifications afterwards. My receiver is less than 100 lines of PHP, and just accepts and stores everything that's thrown at it right now, and is completely publicly accessible.
I advertise this inbox anywhere I want people to discover it from. It's in a Link
header across my whole site, but also explicitly in the body of my profile. I can add it to any webpage I can edit the contents or Link
header of. Any sender that goes sniffing around that page because it wants to send a notification about it will find my inbox and send it there.
The consumer is an application that finds your inbox and reads the notifications and does something useful with them, like: display them, lets you acknowledge them, or take other relevant actions. dokieli is also a consumer (which is how the annotations are displayed on the document for everyone to see once they've been made).
But what I really wanted to say was that I hooked up Pushover to my Inbox so whenever a new notification is delivered, it sends a push notification to my phone. So this has become an actual way to reach me! And probably more effective than email.
You can use Errol when it works (which, at the time of writing this post, it doesn't, but maybe by the time you read this it will again). You can build your own sender. Or you can just make a curl request:
curl -v -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/ld+json" --data "@msg.json" https://rhiaro.co.uk/ldn.php
Where msg.json
looks something like:
{
"@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#",
"to": { "@id": "https://rhiaro.co.uk" },
"name": "Free chocolate",
"summary": "Free chocolate for you",
"content": "I have some free 95% dark chocolate for you, come and get it.",
"actor": { "@id": "http://yourdomain.com" },
"published": "2016-07-12T12:29:00"
}
Okay so after a couple of serious (but good episodes) we're back to regular programming: Tuvok and Neelix are combined by the transporter.

Mr Neelix you're wallowing in useless remorse. I'll have to ask you to stop.

Beet bread
I made bread today. As I munch through slice after slice I'm thinking.. it's so good.. is it cake? Did I make savoury cake? Store bread isn't this easy and pleasurable to eat. But actually my bread standards have probably just been drastically lowered since I left home and stopped eating my mum's homemade bread every day. Also my bread is pink.
