schestowitz-pi | i'm going to try to identify what code eats the whitespaces and why | Feb 18 01:17 |
schestowitz-pi | my guess is that it is something in perl | Feb 18 01:17 |
schestowitz-pi | where it analyses urls | Feb 18 01:17 |
schestowitz-pi | going to first progress on news-reading till 3am | Feb 18 01:17 |

schestowitz-pi | i see more layoffs in companies i strongly dislike | Feb 18 01:17 |
techrights[sec] | Which script? I can look. | Feb 18 01:36 |
schestowitz-pi | there is a chain of scripts running when I call finalise script from dialogue in menu.sh on | Feb 18 01:38 |
schestowitz-pi | my machine 'vonick' | Feb 18 01:38 |
schestowitz-pi | i forgot the order in which it runs, but toc is part of it, and iirc it also pulls the latest camelcase file | Feb 18 01:38 |
schestowitz-pi | from git before it runs the rest | Feb 18 01:38 |
schestowitz-pi | there is the thing that culls empty n | Feb 18 01:38 |
techrights[sec] | something there is eating the whitespace at the end of the line and adding <br /> which seems to be the problem | Feb 18 01:39 |
schestowitz-pi | there is the thing that culls empty nodes in the tree | Feb 18 01:56 |
schestowitz-pi | end of line is not the issue as that's to do with how the rss feeds are formatted | Feb 18 01:56 |
schestowitz-pi | the main issue is, when <b>some text</b> is bolded or <a href="">linked</a> the spaces | Feb 18 01:56 |
schestowitz-pi | before and after are removed | Feb 18 01:56 |
schestowitz-pi | I've not yet checked it | Feb 18 01:56 |

schestowitz-pi | [rant] academia is full of frauds | Feb 18 02:25 |
schestowitz-pi | i cannot tell if | Feb 18 02:25 |
schestowitz-pi | 1) the phenomenon is new | Feb 18 02:25 |
schestowitz-pi | 2) it is old | Feb 18 02:25 |
schestowitz-pi | 3) it is just becoming MORE VISIBLE in the modern age | Feb 18 02:25 |
schestowitz-pi | a fish rots from the head down | Feb 18 02:25 |
schestowitz-pi | it's the same in corporations | Feb 18 02:25 |
schestowitz-pi | propelling to the top a bunch of frauds with plenty to hide | Feb 18 02:25 |
schestowitz-pi | so they bully honest people, whom they try to keep below and out of decision-making | Feb 18 02:25 |
schestowitz-pi | frauds like to hangs out with like-minded people | Feb 18 02:25 |
schestowitz-pi | and they LOVE power | Feb 18 02:25 |
techrights[sec] | I suspect it has gotten much, much worse in recent decades. The poseurs | Feb 18 02:28 |
techrights[sec] | were generally culled and unable to disturb a core. Now the core is gone | Feb 18 02:28 |
techrights[sec] | and those that would have made a core, marginalized. | Feb 18 02:28 |
schestowitz-pi | happens in admin and "research;' | Feb 18 02:28 |
schestowitz-pi | like people who forge results to "get ahead" | Feb 18 02:28 |
schestowitz-pi | and peer review cannot always catch them | Feb 18 02:28 |
techrights[sec] | Admin is the main proble: empire builders, microsofters, and such | Feb 18 02:32 |
techrightssec | peer review has mostly stopped working, and that is part of the problem. | Feb 18 02:44 |
techrightssec | that is mostly caused by the state of academic publishing and the current | Feb 18 02:44 |
techrightssec | business models which have been encouraged to develop over the last half | Feb 18 02:44 |
techrightssec | century | Feb 18 02:44 |
techrightssec | Where the whitspaces preserved | Feb 18 02:44 |

schestowitz-pi | contain some extra formatting and links aside from the "main" link | Feb 18 02:47 |

schestowitz-pi | not severe case of trolling | Feb 18 13:28 |

schestowitz-pi | spoke about health and other issues | Feb 18 13:41 |
schestowitz-pi | reached conclusion that living in an island if better than bunker | Feb 18 13:41 |
schestowitz-pi | owing to isolation, distance | Feb 18 13:41 |
schestowitz-pi | but some islands are attracting too much attention now | Feb 18 13:41 |

schestowitz-pi | in one fell swoop | Feb 18 13:57 |
schestowitz-pi | i am going to look at the code later to study overlaps | Feb 18 13:58 |
schestowitz-pi | i think it is a massive improvement to have in-line formatting for blockquote parts in TM and TR | Feb 18 13:58 |
schestowitz-pi | other syndicators lack that, through old-tm does have a syndication component that includes such | Feb 18 13:58 |
schestowitz-pi | bits | Feb 18 13:58 |
techrights[sec] | cat | tidy | de-duplicate.pl | Feb 18 13:58 |
schestowitz-pi | btw, engadgetbecame a spamfarm akin to cnet, similar tactics and overlap | Feb 18 14:01 |
schestowitz-pi | zdnet is barely active, looks like editors do 1-2 times a week rota now | Feb 18 14:01 |
schestowitz-pi | so they publish in bursts, then go silent | Feb 18 14:01 |
schestowitz-pi | same cms and company as cnet | Feb 18 14:01 |
schestowitz-pi | when you see full body html it's rather blatant, like URLs 4 lines long all over the place (referrer parts) | Feb 18 14:01 |
schestowitz-pi | it's seo and spamfarming | Feb 18 14:01 |
techrights[sec] | A lot of sites have diminished and/or turned to spammishness. Others have | Feb 18 14:02 |
techrights[sec] | just plain closed down. | Feb 18 14:02 |
schestowitz-pi | indeed | Feb 18 14:02 |
schestowitz-pi | the former category was handed over to 'cleaners' or monetisers | Feb 18 14:03 |

techrights[sec] | India seems to still have investments in media and journalism, but tech | Feb 18 14:03 |
techrights[sec] | coverage is very, very weak. | Feb 18 14:03 |
schestowitz-pi | be careful, a lot of their english-speaking media reposts the same texts in many domains | Feb 18 14:05 |
schestowitz-pi | and i suspect some of it is composed elsewhere and presented as "original" | Feb 18 14:05 |
schestowitz-pi | if you compare paragraphs you can see they are recycling | Feb 18 14:05 |
schestowitz-pi | but spamnil is miles worse, he's not even editorialising things | Feb 18 14:05 |
schestowitz-pi | he and monika just copy-paste corporate spam | Feb 18 14:05 |
schestowitz-pi | spwmnil is still violating youtube TOS, but fewer videos to click | Feb 18 14:05 |
techrights[sec] | It is difficult to find and follow quality sites. Many appear to be mostly | Feb 18 14:06 |
techrights[sec] | plagiarism. | Feb 18 14:06 |
techrights[sec] | TOS and CoC only apply to opponents of M$ | Feb 18 14:06 |
schestowitz-pi | coc = "professionalism" = submissive to power (oligarchy | Feb 18 14:07 |
schestowitz-pi | that does not mean that coc violators are freedom fighters | Feb 18 14:07 |
schestowitz-pi | many are actual asshole, but risky to generalise | Feb 18 14:07 |
schestowitz-pi | that's how a coc gets sold | Feb 18 14:07 |
schestowitz-pi | a motto for TMis, no need to editorialise news if you can boost the original | Feb 18 14:14 |
schestowitz-pi | and curate what's important | Feb 18 14:14 |
schestowitz-pi | phoronix is considered "blogspam" in reddit | Feb 18 14:14 |
schestowitz-pi | because it can be biased for the originals | Feb 18 14:14 |
schestowitz-pi | and no ads | Feb 18 14:14 |
schestowitz-pi | but if you have nothing original to report, why not link to the developer's platform? | Feb 18 14:14 |
schestowitz-pi | either way, just curation and management of the signal can go a long way | Feb 18 14:14 |
