洪 民憙 (Hong Minhee)

Hello, I'm an open source software engineer in my late 30s living in #Seoul, #Korea, and an avid advocate of #FLOSS and the #fediverse.

I'm the creator of @fedify, an #ActivityPub server framework in #TypeScript, @hollo, an ActivityPub-enabled microblogging software for single users, and @botkit, a simple ActivityPub bot framework.

I'm also very interested in East Asian languages (so-called #CJK) and #Unicode. Feel free to talk to me in #English, #Korean (#한국어), or #Japanese (#日本語), or even in Literary Chinese (#文言文, #漢文)!

#introduction

安寧(안녕)하세요, 저는 서울에 살고 있는 30代(대) 後半(후반) 오픈 소스 소프트웨어 엔지니어이며, 自由(자유)·오픈 소스 소프트웨어와 聯合宇宙(연합우주)(fediverse)의 熱烈(열렬)한 支持者(지지자)입니다.

저는 TypeScript用(용) ActivityPub 서버 프레임워크인 @fedify 프로젝트와 싱글 유저用(용) ActivityPub 마이크로블로그인 @hollo 프로젝트와 ActivityPub 봇 프레임워크인 @botkit 프로젝트의 製作者(제작자)이기도 합니다.

저는 東(동)아시아 言語(언어)(이른바 #CJK)와 유니코드에도 關心(관심)이 많습니다. 聯合宇宙(연합우주)에서는 國漢文混用體(국한문 혼용체)를 쓰고 있어요! 제게 韓國語(한국어)나 英語(영어), 日本語(일본어)로 말을 걸어주세요. (아니면, 漢文(한문)으로도!)

私は東アジア言語（いわゆるCJK）とUnicodeにも興味が多いです。日本語、英語、韓国語で話しかけてください。（または、漢文でも！）

#自己紹介

@ayo @hongminhee It can be so helpful during design! Some people do it first-first. At Astro with our RFC process, minimal "docs" are updated as the feature is developed.

For Astro's new experimental Fonts API, we held not only an open API bash, but an API *docs* bash! After 2 hours looking at the draft docs ("Oh, it works like this? Oh, you expect people to do this? Oh, this is what it takes to explain how to use it?")... some design changes were implemented for sure, and everyone wins!

@kodingwarrior 😂

@kodingwarrior 어찌 그런 너저분한 코드를 보셨습니까… 😂

韓国人のフレンドが2つのものを混ぜることを「ちゃんぽんする」と言ってて、韓国語でもこの表現通じるんだと思うなど

For my library and CLI projects, I've been writing documentation before writing any code. It helps me imagine the final interface early on, which usually leads to better design. Sure, sometimes I miss implementation details and have to revise later, but hey—it's just docs. Docs are easy to change.

This tiny habit has surprisingly big payoffs. When I focus on how things will be used rather than how they'll be built, I end up with interfaces that actually make sense.

Anyone else do this? Curious about your experience with documentation-first approaches.

First, I'm adding custom emoji support to #BotKit…

@renchap Is it FEP-044f? It's new to me, so I need to check it out!

@saschanaz 루비 글자가 작아서 잘 안 보일 것 같긴 해요

以鼠為璞（いそいはく）
鄭の人が「璞」という玉を買おうとしたら、周の人が「璞」というネズミ肉を渡したという故事から。

辞典オンでは周の方を「朴」と記すが、原文は「樸」なんじゃ？https://ctext.org/zhan-guo-ce/ying-hou-yue-zheng-ren-wei/zh

他の本の同じ話では全て「璞」。https://ctext.org/text.pl?node=49650&if=gb&show=parallel

이서위박(以鼠爲璞)
정(鄭) 사람이 璞이라는 옥을 사려 했더니 주(周) 사람이 璞이라는 쥐고기를 내줬다는 고사.

https://yoji.jitenon.jp/yojim/6332 에서는 璞이 아닌 朴을 줬다 하며 출전은 《전국책》인데 원문에서는 樸. https://ctext.org/zhan-guo-ce/ying-hou-yue-zheng-ren-wei/zh

다른 책 같은 내용에서는 璞. https://ctext.org/text.pl?node=49650&if=gb&show=parallel

Sometimes I'm quite amazed by my own code 😳

FediDB v3

Available soon 🚀

#fediDB

I've been considering what to add in the next version of BotKit (v0.2.0) and wanted to share my current plans. After reviewing feedback and examining the #ActivityPub ecosystem, I've identified three key features that would significantly enhance the framework's capabilities:

1. Custom emoji support. This would allow bots to use server-defined custom emojis in their messages, making communication more expressive and allowing better integration with instance culture.

2. Emoji reactions. I plan to implement both sending and receiving emoji reactions to messages. This provides a lightweight interaction model that many users prefer for simple acknowledgments or responses. This would manifest as new event handlers (like Bot.onReaction) and methods (like Message.react()).

3. Quote posts. The ability to reference other posts with commentary is an important discourse feature in the fediverse. Supporting both sending quotes and detecting when bot posts have been quoted would enable more sophisticated conversational patterns.

These additions should make #BotKit more capable while maintaining its simple, developer-friendly API. I expect implementation to involve extending the Message class and adding new Text processing capabilities, all while keeping backward compatibility with existing bots. Having built both Hollo and Hackers' Pub, I already have deep familiarity with how various ActivityPub implementations handle these features across the fediverse. I welcome any community feedback on priorities or implementation details before I begin coding.

BlueSky isn’t just censoring posts in Turkey to match government demands, already happening in other countries too.

I really wish the media would stop calling it decentralised. It isn’t. It’s like calling Shell oil nature lovers, because they claim they love nature.

宇多田ヒカルのファーストアルバムである『First Love』は、おそらく私が一番最初に出会ったJ-POPだろう。それでもまだ好きだ。今も「Automatic」を聴きながらコーディング中。

와… 臺灣(타이완) 社會民主黨(사회 민주당)은 Mastodon 어카운트(@sdparty_tw)가 있네. 부럽다.

Apple이 잘 하는 건 뭘 만들어야 하는지 잘 아는 것. 그러니까 問題(문제) 定義(정의)는 잘 하는 것 같고, Apple의 많은 卓越(탁월)함은 여기서 비롯되는 것 같다. 다른 걸 잘 못해도 이걸로 먹고 산다는 느낌.

이런 걸 보면 Apple이 소프트웨어 잘 만드는 企業(기업)은 아니라는 것을 알 수 있음. 스마트폰 市場(시장)에서야 比較(비교) 對象(대상)이 기껏해야 三星(삼성)이기 때문에 가려지는 것 같지만…

あ、あと。来週頭に公開予定の「しゅいろ」さんのMisskey連載もあるよ。 https://gihyo.jp/list/group/Misskey-Webテクノロジー最前線#rt:/article/2023/02/misskey-01 日本語で申し訳ないけど🙏 @hongminhee

勿論、内部表現はHTMLにしても、ユーザー入力はMFMやCommonMarkやGFMで大丈夫だと思います。あくまで内部表現をHTMLでやって欲しいという話です。 当然、出力する時はXSSフィルタを通す必要が有ります。

…と言うか、Misskeyがノートの内容に対する内部表現（intermediate representation）をMFMからHTMLに変えてくれればそれで良いと思います。

https://lemmy-federate.com is an interesting approach

同じ理由でfedify lookup -a https://www.threads.net/@usernameコマンドで正常に照会が出来ない。一方fedify lookup -a @username@threads.netコマンドは正常に動作。

ThreadsのアカウントがMisskey系からの検索がめちゃくちゃ難しいの、もしかしてアカウントのページ（https://www.threads.net/@アカウント）にtype="application/activity+json"なJSONファイルを用意していないから？

例えばこのアカウントだとhttps://c.osumiakari.jp/@oageoというページにはが入っており、https://c.osumiakari.jp/@oageoを貼り付けるだけで外からでも簡単にアカウントの参照が出来るようになっている（はず）

Mastodonとかでも同様なんだけどThreadsには無さそう

Pleromaにも無いんだけど、Pleromaの場合は表示されているインスタンスのアドレス/user/ユーザー名でよしなに解決されるから問題ない。しかしThreadsにおいてはhttps://threads.net/ap/users/数字なので、解決されなさそう
