Have you ever paused to consider the lineage of a piece of sofware? How long has it been around and where does it derive from?
New blog post: Software lineage: Mach ports vs BSD

Upgraded smoothly. Added a postscript to the blog post and a note about a slightly scary coincidence involving a crackling, crashing mac mini.

New blog post: Re-basing webfinger-rs on fluent-uri-rs
https://underlap.org/re-basing-webfinger-rs-on-fluent-uri-rs
-
Wrote a summary of web linking (AKA link relations; think rel="xxx" in a <a/> or <link/> HTML element).
The piece of the puzzle that's still unclear to me is whether WebFinger has been superseded, or maybe just generally ignored. There doesn't seem to be much adoption (except by Mastodon) or follow-on activity AFAICT.

New blog post: Process algebra and JSONPath descendant segment semantics

Non-deterministic behaviour in a specification can be a headache for testing. This updated post explores the non-determinism in the JSONPath RFC 9535, describes how the Compliance Test Suite is being upgraded to deal with non-determinism, and shows how non-deterministic tests can be generated automatically. There's also an "explosive" challenge for Haskell programmers.

New blog post: animating source code evolution

Features contributions by @nebhale, @twoseat, @fbiville, @carolynvs and many other friends and colleagues, plus probably thousands of total strangers.

The JSONPath RFC 9535 has been published.
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9535.html
That was 17 years since the original JSONPath blog post and a little over three years since a number of us started collaborating on an internet draft.
Read the full story from my perspective here: https://underlap.org/jsonpath-from-blog-post-to-rfc-in-17-years

@underlap content migration has historically been a difficult problem to solve simply because all these companies and softwares operate in pseudo-competition with one another.
For example #nodebb can migrate posts from #phpBB #vBulletin etc., but it's all custom migrators.
Something as simple as a common format for data portability would go a long way towards ease of content migration.
I am not certain many users elect to use or not use platforms based on portability though.

Account portability and the social web https://underlap.org/account-portability-in-the-social-web
I believe this is an important topic for the Fediverse. Please boost for visibility.
Thanks to @dottorblaster @jamesravey @hcj @mima @hirad @devnull for commenting on my earlier survey on this topic (https://fosstodon.org/@underlap/111617691764389915)

Someone asked me to what extent I planned my career. Did I plan for the future or stumble from one role/technology to the next? How did I decide what to do next?

Ngumoha, 17, already understands an underlap/overlap better than Gakpo. Finds Kerkez on a blistering run for a decent cross.

I just updated 2 #Web sites of mine (robots.txt AND .htaccess) with the "ai.robots.txt" list of #AI user-agents to #block by @cory, @underlap or @fabianegli among others !
And tested the effective block (Hello 403) with the #curl of @bagder :
> curl -I -A "AI2Bot" <YourWebsite>Thank you Fediverse !! 🖖🤩

This thread is well worth reading. It's about the #W3C standard DID: "Decentralized identifiers (DIDs) are a new type of identifier that enables verifiable, decentralized digital identity.". The take away: We already had a solution for Decentralized identifiers but … #NIH.
My #Hubzilla had this (here it is called "Nomadic Identity") and it rescued my fediverse identity.
It starts with this posting:
#^glyn (@[email protected])What would it take to add decentralised identity (e.g. W3C DIDs) to the Fediverse? Who is already working on this?
Bluesky's AT Protocol is a great proof of concept, but probably isn't the endgame. Abstracting Fediverse identity using hostnames and WebFinger is another useful experiment, but again probably not the endgame.
#DecentralizedIdentity #ATProtocol #W3C #ActivityPub
The Folks from #Hubzilla are stepping in and explain, that this problem was already solved even before #ActivityPub existed:
#^Jupiter Rowland@glyn Decentralised identity has been available for longer than Mastodon, let alone ActivityPub. Only that it is known as "nomadic identity" here.
It was first implemented by Friendica creator @Mike Macgirvin Macgirvin ?️ in the Zot protocol in 2011 and in a Friendica fork named Red in 2012, later renamed into the Red Matrix, eventually reworked and renamed into Hubzilla in 2015.
Proof: This Hubzilla channel of mine actually simultaneously resides on two servers.
(Almost) everything that Mike has made afterwards, forks and forks of forks of Hubzilla, used to have or still have nomadic identity implemented.
