I just noticed that the webmention.app website is serving and running using a JavaScript package, and it’s open source. You can find the source code on GitHub by Remy. This means that even if the webmention.app host is down, you can still use the service by hosting it yourself or using the CLI.

Hosting the service was never an option for me, so I decided to use the CLI to replace my current GitHub action jobs. Here’s the modified workflow:

I checking my email today and saw Bret Busby posted on Ubuntu-users mailing-list asking about “How do we disable the snap stuff” and likely it trigger some Ubuntu kipas-susah-mati replies when he typed:

I learn some trick today on how to speed up find, exec command. Let check this out:

# let see how many files we have
$ find . -type f | wc -l
36367

# lets check every file status
$ time find . -type f -exec stat {} \; > /dev/null
real 0m40.107s
user 0m14.381s
sys 0m26.410s

# lets check every file status
$ time find . -type f -exec stat {} + > /dev/null
real 0m1.281s
user 0m0.626s
sys 0m0.656s

Wow that’s quite a huge difference! Impressive! All we did was swap the \; for a +.
