Future of Mozilla (and) Firefox
… 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');
Sort extended ZSH history (works with multi-line entries)

#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

Better? Worse? Can be further improved?

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

On February 1st 2024, AWS will start charging for IPv4 addresses. This will cost $0.005 per hour -- around $4 month
This is a very nice idea, and finally happening on a global scale.
Hetzner started charging IPv4 addresses (or rather, allowing a discount if you do without: the total price is the same it was before) since a few years and I guess that's working fine for them.

LLM runs native on any OS
Wonderful #LLM work by Justine Tunney! It bundles an LLM with the code needed to run it in a single binary using DEEP magic (Cosmopolitan Libc) such that the same binary works on 6 different operating systems Best part: it works with LLaVA multi-modal... so you can a 4GB file from and: chmod 755 llamafile-server-0.1-llava-v1.5-7b-q4 Visit And now:
Here's an incredible new way to run LLMs on your own machine: llamafile - [url=https://hacks.mozilla.org/2023/11/introducing-llamafile/]https://hacks.mozilla.org/2023/11/introducing-llamafile/

Download Hetzner CSV invoices
I made a little script to automatically download all my #Hetzner CSV invoices in a single file (or rather, one file per page):
let elem = Array.prototype.slice.call(document.getElementsByClassName('btn-download')).map(e=>e.href).filter(u=>u.endsWith('/csv'));
let numbers = elem.map(u=>/invoice[/]([^/]+)/.exec(u)[1]);
let filename = 'invoice-' + numbers[0] + '-' + numbers[numbers.length - 1] + '.csv';
let csv = '';
for (let url of elem)
csv += await (await fetch(url)).text();
let a = document.createElement("a");
a.download = filename;
a.href = a.href = "data:text/csv,"+encodeURIComponent(csv);
a.click();Updates available as GitHub gist.
They broke #RSA 2048 using quantum computing on a commercial phone.
Yeah, sure. 🤣
"Quantum Leap in Computing: RSA-2048 Cracked on a Cellphone! 📱💥"Dr. Ed Gerck announces a groundbreaking quantum computing (QC) achievement: RSA-2048 encryption has been broken using a commercial cellphone or a commercial Linux desktop! Should this turn out to be correct, this would mark a pivotal moment in cybersecurity, as current public-key encryption may no longer be secure. Time for quantum-resistant algorithms! 🚨🔐
As some others have also stated, and I quote "Well, I'd like to see a more tangible proof of these tall claims..."
Would be cool tho...

Super-interesting thread about government-frustration-based #opensource, a small server that scrapes prices from major groceries and a completely client-side PWA to search thru it.
Would love to see an Italian fork of this.
Kudos to @Mario Zechner
Today was ... interesting. If you followed me for the past months over on the shitbird site, you might have seen a bunch of angry German words, lots of graphs, and the occassional news paper, radio, or TV snippet with yours truely. Let me explain.In Austria, inflation is way above the EU average. There's no end in sight. This is especially true for basic needs like energy and food.
Our government stated in May that they'd build a food price database together with the big grocery chains. But..

I notice that I go to twitter nowadays almost exclusively for news about #AI #LLM #neuralNetworks and it seems most of the contents are still there.
(On the other hand, e.g., infosec people seems to be most active here on the Fediverse.)
Is there any "user cluster" I didn't notice or subscribe to on those arguments in here, or do you think I might be right?

#VictoriaMetrics is getting better and better, even on my home installation RAM usage went down from 958 MiB to 381 MiB upgrading from 1.87.6 to 1.93.0. 🎉
…and if you're still using plain old #Prometheus do know that Victoria Metrics is a plug-in #OpenMetrics replacement (even the scraping file is compatible) and everything will be faster and both RAM and disk usage will go down dramatically.

AAAA glue records
I didn't notice but it seems that in 2019 italian registration authority (finally!!) added support for AAAA glue records, necessary for recursive #DNS resolution based purely on #IPv6 connections.
My registrar #ArubaIT still doesn't support that in the web interface, but they were nice and fast doing that manually when I opened a ticket.
And thus, finally, after many years of wait this is finally possible:
% drill -T6 aaaa lapo.it | fgrep AAAA
lapo.it. 86400 IN AAAA 2a01:4f8:151:1d7::7PS: unfortunately ldns’ drill does not yet show glue records explicitly during a trace, but I will wait on that too.
