<p>On reddit i have seen multiple threads that are positive through and through with topics like, "What are you up to today?", "I just finished school and starting to work", "I am lonely and feel dreadful". I read the comments and was met with level-headed and honest comments/interactions.<p>As in reality it's important to have walled gardens where people can utter opinions and voice their distress or just say that they are happy. Without getting lynched. These global silos of social media is nothing but deserts where the only way of getting through the noice with any means neccessary.</p>

<p>I saw your genuine post and upvoted since it seemed unfair.<p>I am mostly against all usage of LLM because the treadmill is moving too fast. But if it's thoughtful usage and a lot of tinkering I might change course. As such that includes other things than LLM obviously.</p>

<p>It depends on how you register things.<p>* Given that you can easily start up your own CA in a test bed, just use different domain names.<p>* Or use IP addresses directly, given that IPv6 i pretty abundant it's easy to just listen on many addresses at the same time. A nice thing is to just put the port number is the last octets: fd01::9000, fd01::0003:5565. If it's HTTPS you always use port 443, if it's another protocol, use another port. With iptables/nft you can translate all port 443 traffic towards a /96 to a single IP.<p>* Firefox does not seem to understand unix domain sockets, <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27941552">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27941552</a>. I'm assuming that you have a gateway in front that handles that aspect.<p>* Proxies in Firefox seems to understand that though, which means you can have a proxy that translate to unix sockets locally. That means you can basically run it to a namespaced application, using only http://<service>.localhost.</p>

<p>Why not resolve everything with UNIX sockets instead, that way you can have them named and scoped instead, hiding behind port 443, since it's mosly HTTP anyway.</p>

<p>nitpick, it should be `touch a c & mv a b & mv c d` as `&;` returns `bash: syntax error near unexpected token `;'`. I always find this oddly weird, but that would not be the first pattern in BASH that is.<p>`inotifywait` actually sees them in order, but nothing ensure that it's that way.<p><pre><code>  $ inotifywait -m /tmp
  /tmp/ MOVED_FROM a
  /tmp/ MOVED_TO b
  /tmp/ MOVED_FROM c
  /tmp/ MOVED_TO d

</code></pre>
`stat` tells us that the timestamps are equal as well.<p><pre><code>  $ stat b d | grep '^Change'
  Change: 2026-02-06 12:22:55.394932841 +0100
  Change: 2026-02-06 12:22:55.394932841 +0100

</code></pre>
However, speeding things up changes it a bit.<p>Given<p><pre><code>  $ (
    set -eo pipefail
    for i in {1..10000}
    do
      printf '%d ' "$i"
      touch a c
      mv a b &
      mv c d &
      wait
      rm b d
    done
  )
  1 2 3 4 5 6 .....
</code></pre>
And with `inotifywait` I saw this when running it for a while.<p><pre><code>  $ inotifywait -m -e MOVED_FROM,MOVED_TO /tmp > /tmp/output
  cat /tmp/output | xargs -l4 | sort | uniq -c
  9104 /tmp/ MOVED_FROM a /tmp/ MOVED_TO b /tmp/ MOVED_FROM c /tmp/ MOVED_TO d
  896 /tmp/ MOVED_FROM c /tmp/ MOVED_TO d /tmp/ MOVED_FROM a /tmp/ MOVED_TO b</code></pre></p>
