Tweet archive

Where possible, I archive tweet data for embedding in posts. Any tweets I have archived this way are also listed here.

I use my twarchive project, which includes both a Python script for downloading and processing tweet data and a Hugo theme for displaying it.

Retrieval date

In each tweet, I record the date I retrieved it from the Twitter API. Click the question mark in the bottom right corner to see it.

Images

Images in the tweets are data: URIs with the full sized image also archived.

Because Chromium browsers do not permit the top level frame to navigate to data: URIs, clicking on images will create an iframe and display the image in an iframe. This is a crappy hack, but it does work.

Quote tweets

If a tweet links to another tweet, that is a “quote tweet”. Only a single level of QT is shown, just like on Twitter.

Unsupported

Bought the wrong brand at the store and am reminded yet again how "good" light roast fruity coffee tastes like sour anxiety.

And the result is just not as good! I first tried a medium grind for 10 sec, and it tasted like fussy pour-over coffee that I've had in expensive shops everywhere. Too thin, and somehow too light. More brown than black. You wouldn't look at it and think, "ahh, crude oil".

(Feel free to dislike Copilot for other reasons. I dislike it bc it sends all of your code to Microsoft 🙃.)
@mrled

Currently imagining a scenario where AI becomes a force multiplier on human labor, not for the normal reasons, but bc it is a plausible hack around our deranged copyright regime to nontechnical people who make the law. Finally, an excuse to cut loose the rotting corpse of IP.
@mrled

This is just the craziest response to me. If you’re a fan of open source, you should be ENTHUSIASTICALLY APPLAUDING THE END OF “INTELLECTUAL” “PROPERTY”. It’s a huge mistake, a monumental drain on our collective knowledge work. https://t.co/CR30Ms5nev
@mrled

If GitHub copilot makes it hard to litigate license agreements: FUCKING GOOD. If it makes it hard to enforce copyright at all: THAT’S WAY, WAY BETTER.
@mrled

I have no technical opinion on whether GitHub Copilot is following the law, or adheres to its spirit, or complies with the interpretation of the FSF in 2022. But I think that’s the wrong frame. We have a chance to seriously wound the meme of copyright! Fuck yes!
@JasonLeopold

Incredible. 5 yrs ago, I filed a FOIA request w/SOUTHCOM for photographed copies of all artwork created by Guantanamo detainees for a project I've been working on. SOUTHCOM just turned docs over & redacted 100s of paintings citing law enforcement techniques & procedures exemption https://t.co/lfMtTNndSR

Everyone says Final Fantasy VII is good but I’ve lived through enough AWS outages to not want to spend my free time on Cloud Strife
@daphnehk

Speaking as someone who has litigated and lost on this exact issue in three countries (UK, Germany, France), I feel confident in saying the firm refusal to filter for new things beyond CSAM doesn’t mean much in the face of state power. https://t.co/tFVTyq05Iy
@elizabeth_joh

So basically: all that stands between users and governments demanding adding of non-CSAM images to the hash list is Apple's firm refusal? https://t.co/o2sflSWQnQ
@mrled

Holy shit, that’s amazing. Pins is a truly great app - I started working on a Pinboard app something like 9 months ago (because alternatives were hot garbage) and have abandoned it completely because of how great Pins is. I can’t believe something this good is only 8 months old. https://t.co/PIhJp28csk
@GetPinsApp

Pins’ first lines of code was written 8 months ago today 🎂. The app has come a long way — this is how it looked like during development: https://t.co/QrfD4aToOO
@kevinmarks

@mrled @reederapp @NetNewsWire @feedbin you may find that using an img with a data url of the SVG will be more robust to RSS use - a lot of RSS readers will strip HTML tags they don't recognise, even with CDATA. You may need to base64 it too. One of the reasons for h-feed is to avoid the nested escaping trickiness
@mrled

Update: I figured out that using inline 'style="..."' on the <span> element containing the SVG, rather than assigning a class and styling with CSS, will fix the problem in some RSS readers, like @reederapp and @NetNewsWire, but not others like @feedbin. Interesting.
@mrled

... 2) General web dev articles that have an SVG of an RSS icon and also mention CSS.
@mrled

This is hard to Google for, because there are lots of posts about either 1) CSS styles for RSS XML, so that your RSS looks nice in the browser. This is a cool idea that I didn’t know was possible, but it isn’t the problem I wanted to solve. https://t.co/cLE5Zy238y ...
@mrled

... while @reederapp v5 viewing the same RSS feed shows it very large. https://t.co/n4B9wPn63q
@mrled

Do I need to convert to bitmap icons for RSS? Is there some way I can make these SVGs display nicely in feed readers?
@mrled

However, when I view the resulting RSS feed in readers, the official @feedbin app doesn’t show it at all... https://t.co/yEznLEJRHe
@mrled

It’s supposed to produce output like this (just a screenshot from that web page): https://t.co/RnvuHtNVVr
@mrled

Is it possible to get consistent SVG display inside an RSS feed? I love the results of this post on the web, but it doesn’t work as-is in the RSS readers I’ve tested it with. https://t.co/Cf0QnX4ZxW
@vercel_support

@mrled Hi Micah, we don't recommend using puppeteer in your Serverless Functions. Vercel is perfect for your frontend and small Serverless Functions that help you get data from external services, but that of course doesn't mean it's not possible! -- Timothy
@mrled

In case it helps anyone else, I did add real documentation to my og:image generator https://t.co/gqJ1nscBBS
@mrled

It is true that @vercel_support told me puppeteer wasn't recommended on Vercel Functions... but then I found Vercel's og-image and guess what it uses to generate text? 🙃 https://t.co/voYvd6DM4m
@mrled

This way is now using a brand new og:image generator that is deployed separately. It does nothing but install puppeteer and run it against specific URLs https://t.co/Czv8w4OplC

I'll probably do more customizations piece by piece, but this was a good upgrade, the unified color scheme makes my board look more peaceful.
@mrled

I wanted the key that triggered that layer to have a bump, like F and J tend to have on regular keyboards, so I could find it more easily without looking. When I ordered, I could get almost-black easily, so that's what I selected: https://t.co/oFFXkPlhnp
@mrled

Specifically, I have an arrow layer on my keyboard that is triggered by keys under the C and comma (,) keys https://t.co/BaaN1kBH0a
@mrled

That's also why, if you look closely, there are dark gray darker almost-black keys. The gray keys are from the grab bag, while the black ones are new. I actually like the gray color better, but the almost-black color gave me more options.
@mrled

I already had a grab bag I had gotten for macropads before, so some of the 1x1 keys around the edges came from that. https://t.co/l71YGlyfMZ
@mrled

To do this, I just got a few different colors of 1.5x1 keys from the unfortunately named pimp my keyboard dot com (owned by Signature Plastics): https://t.co/BMXtp4pKaj

Decided it was time for a less “lego spaceship assembled without regard to color” scheme. (New on the left with greens and grays; old on the right.) https://t.co/PV6PpsUVP1
