I had a wild weekend trip down the rabbit hole of #tlog Transparency Logs (a theme I also use at work, but the urge was too much to wait for an off-time at work), resulting in having installed a Trillian Tessera server, an OmniWitness server, and creating a PR for the latter to let them understand each other… which might be totally unuseful, as the main author of both projects seems to be the same, and he certainly doesn't need help from me to let those understand each other, but you know… I had to see it working now!

PS: well it was merged, and it was a bit of a learning experience in Go too. So yay!


Future of Mozilla (and) Firefox


Please someone in here re-assure me #Firefox has a future, as I'm really cozy with my setup and really wouldn't want to migrate again. 🤣
… but I am also more and more worried each and every time a new article about #Mozilla hits the news. 😞
(I look forward to #Servo too, but that's a partly different issue)

Just in case you need a NodeJS script to sort extended #ZSH history which doesn't break on multi-line entries:

#! /usr/bin/env node
const fs = require('fs');
const lines = fs.readFileSync(process.argv[2], 'utf8').split(/(?<=[^\\])\n/);
lines.sort((a, b) => a.split(/:/)[1] - b.split(/:/)[1]);
fs.writeFileSync(process.argv[2], lines.join('\n'), 'utf8');
#ZSH

#golang Fediverse please help a Go-noob: is it possible to get the `git describe` string from a `go install github.com…@latest` type installation?
In order to use for `--version` output, that in various projects report no version when installed that way.

E.g.:

% go install github.com/walles/moar@latest
% moar --version
Should be set when building, please use build.sh to build


ASN1js tree mode


Public request for comments: #ASN1js has historically been like this, I have received a very nice PR on Github to make it more like the usual tree view with ⊕, it can be tested here.
I like that, but it's a huge change to the website historical look&feel #UX.
What do you think about it?
Better? Worse? Can be further improved?

in reply to Lapo Luchini

nice ! Can you re-encode ASN.1 structures based on text descriptions ?
I did that using OpenSSL CLI and Perl github.com/wllm-rbnt/asn1templ…

oh! I didn't know you were on Mastodon.

Thank you SO MUCH for making asn1js. It was absolutely instrumental in my recent escapades into the world of DNSSEC.

Genuinely an inspiring tool.



ASN1js now (also on) ESM


I released a 'next' version of #ASN1js on npm which drops any AMD/UMD boilerplate and only uses ES6 modules.

I'm waiting for the forthcoming #NodeJS sync require(esm) in order to release that as a default version, because it seems unreasonable to force library users to do everything async.

Any thought on that? #library #JavaScript

é un assaggio del potere della sorveglianza elettronica con cui dovremo fare i conti sempre più spesso. Ha già i connotati distopici questo dispositivo contro la pirateria, figuriamoci le soluzioni tecniche pensate proprio per il controllo della popolazione.
