One thing I keep coming back to when comparing #ActivityPub and AT Protocol: ActivityPub is basically a convention on top of the #web stuff we already have. An actor is a JSON-LD document you GET. An inbox is an endpoint you POST to. If you already run a website, you can bolt this on without changing the site's basic shape. Ghost didn't set out to join the #fediverse, and then years later it could, just by adding an endpoint.

AT Protocol feels less like that to me. Running a PDS means a signed repo, a Merkle search tree, a firehose, a DID. It's not a layer you add to an existing site. It's closer to standing up another backend beside it.

I think that's why ActivityPub keeps making sense to me. You can join later. You don't have to have built the whole thing with federation in mind from day one.

I was so inspired by the video I just watched that I started tidying up.

I blew into a bottle I emptied out and it played the resting tone of the soundtrack for the video.

What are places (like physical locations) that just "feel good" to you?

Every day another X user cooks his brain, but for just 70 cents a day you can provide an X user with the mastodon server they need to turn their life around.

Just finished Twinless and it was nothing like I expected. If you haven't seen it, I HIGHLY recommend it! (Also didn't know Lauren Graham was in it - love her!)

These videos really show how unreliable LLMs are.

There's nothing steamy in When Oranges Fall as of episode 4, but the actors are so cute. There's a scene where they don't hold hands but it looks like they are both ready to. I think I enjoy this sort of innocent tension more than anything explicit.

I'm still trying to answer the questions of life, relationships, work, and the person I want to be.

This may seem a bit circular, but I think what I am most grateful for are people who have helped me understand myself.

To that end, I would like to extend the same courtesy to others.

This lava rock wall at Kuhio Beach in Waikiki blocks waves to create an ocean beach pool. This is where you take the kids so they are not pummeled by waves or just hang out with friends in the blue-green waters.

Ghostty is now indisputably the fastest terminal emulator at IO throughput, by a very large margin. On ASCII, Unicode, and CSI tests, Ghostty is more than 2x (double!) faster than any other leading "fast" terminal. These changes are directly in libghostty, too, so everyone wins.

`time cat 150MB_ascii.txt`:
- Ghostty nightly: 575ms
- Ghostty 1.3.2: 1.5sec
- Alacritty: 1.2sec
- Kitty: 1.7sec
- Warp: 3.8sec
- iTerm2, Terminal: stopped after 60s

`time cat 150MB_unicode.txt` (mixed languages):
- Ghostty nightly: 536ms
- Ghostty 1.3.2: 1.22sec
- Alacritty: 1.05s
- Kitty: 1.35s
- Warp: 3.4s
- iTerm2, Terminal: stopped after 60s

`DOOM-Fire-Zig` (an IO test):
- Ghostty nightly: 842fps
- Ghostty 1.3.2: 532fps
- Kitty: 485fps
- Alacritty: 593fps
- Warp: 577fps
- iTerm2, Terminal: 60fps (yes, 60)

To quickly address the "cat speed doesn't matter" naysayers: this is a direct test of how many bytes/second you can push through a terminal. It doesn't cover just "read big file" but also "how much can a TUI do". The tests above test various shapes of inputs (plain ascii, unicode/wide chars, csi-heavy loads, etc.). IO throughput is incredibly important.

Most of these improvements apply to libghostty-vt consumers too, so any libghostty-based terminals will instantly see huge throughput improvements by simply upgrading (ABI compatible).

I'll cover the exact improvements in a blog post in the future. These results are the result of 6 separate optimizations.

When I'm craving really bland crackers, I know I'm in my right mind and not mired in boredom or depression.

When I'm craving salty snacks, I know I'm just looking for an escape.

I've been taking notes on a lot of Seth Capehart's videos and this is the first one where he is really asking, what do you want? What is it all for?

I'm surprised I didn't notice the absence of these questions in the other videos.

"A well-trained monk, it is said, lives as though he were already dead: free from attachment, from indecision, from confusion, he moves with no barrier between his will and his act."

I'm trying to accomplish foundational activities today. I went for a walk, drank water, ate cereal, took vitamins, and wrote in my journal, so that I can do the work I want to do (I like organizing?), have the relationships I want to have (I like Asians?), and be the person I want to be (evil does not exist?). 😅
