MODERATORS
 

Combining vibe coding, attempto controlled english (ace) and the social web - form space on the social web through words, secured by attempto controlled english.

You are only able to run code based on attempto controlled english (ace), which is a formally defined subset of the english language. In the future, admins could through this restrict certain kinds of code from executing for security purposes. Additionally, it lessens the ambiguity of natural language and you can be sure that the resulting code will do what it should.

Here are a few example commands in ACE that could be run on AceCoding.social in the future:

  • Moderation: If a user posts more than 20 times in 1 hour then the system temporarily restricts the user's posting ability.
  • Look and feel: If a post contains an image then the system displays the image with rounded corners.
  • For content curation: Every post that has more than 50 likes is added to the "Popular Today" collection.
  • For notifications: If a user has not logged in for 7 days then the system sends a digest of missed interactions.
  • For accessibility: Every image in a post has an alt-text that is either provided by the user or generated by the system.

The amount of domain knowledge to even begin to parse what the fuck you're talking about is absurd.

Secondly, why would anyone want this?

I'm glad you've found yet another project to look nice for your github portfolio, but maybe be up front about that instead of drowning everyone in near gibberish and what seems like poorly written advertisement.

"Hey, I've made another quasi-social media network leveraging the fediverse, AI, and a programming language made to resemble normal english. Check it out!"

Otherwise this is just blatant buzzword salad. I'm going to guess you're also using AI to get project idea involving the latest buzzwords? Maybe even using AI to write this psuedo ad-copy?

Again, more power to you if you're trying to build a portfolio/github/resume where you can say that you've "created numerous projects leveraging federated social media and AI", but just be up front about what you're doing when you post about it here please.

No one needs more shit pretending to be something it isn't. It's okay for your little portfolio project to be just that.

Its similar to what the muni-town/weird-people tried to do, but this time with language.
