Added a section about #llm usage in the README. The project is not vibe coded, but using llms reponsibly is such a productivity boost! #ai #agents

Trying to make Asfaload both secure and future proof by using sha256 oids in its #git backend. This has a performance cost as we need to shell out to the CLI, the libraries support of sha256 oids being WIP. Hoping we don't need to go back to sha1 oids as converting later would be a disrupting change
As my use of #ai has increased gradually (asfaload.com/blog/ai_use/), I have more #code #review work on my plate. I have just installed tuicr (tuicr.dev) in the #docker image I use for development (github.com/asfaload/age...) , and it looks very helpful to ease review of code generated by an #agent
You have to start somewhere: happy with the 10 โญ the project got on GitHub: github.com/asfaload/asf... #buildinpublic #foss #opensource #rustlang
In the Asfaload codebase, there was a pattern that kept appearing: using #rust enum to wrap trait implementations. It offers great flexibility, clean #code, all with full #typesafety and no dynamic dispatch. I haven't seen it described often, let's change that! www.asfaload.com/blog/rust-tr...
100th github pull request created today at github.com/asfaload/asf... and 697 commits already.
๐ First time I could go through the whole chain:
- register multisig from a github project
- activate it by signing it
- register a release
- sign it
- download a release artifact and authenticate it

After mentioning asfaload in the question time of the #security #talk of @oej.edvina.net at #fosdem, there was some interest to get more info. But while posting the link to the room's #matrix channel, the speaker disappeared! I hope we can talk further later!
With asfaload.com of course!
At the #security #talk of @oej.edvina.net at #fosdem
Promoting open source project asfaload.com at #fosdem.org
Just discovered this talk
fosdem.org/2026/schedul... at #fosdem by @oej.edvina.net . This is exactly the need that asfaload aims to fill! Looking forward to having a chat!
Asfaload flyer
No asfaload talk at #fosdem this year, but I prepared the design of an A4 flyer, see blog post asfaload.com/blog/fosdem2...

Added the project to deepwiki at
deepwiki.com/asfaload/asf... This generates #documentation that seems quite good! I will probably link it as the documentation for the project.

Just renamed the GitHub project asfaload, to avoid confusion. Project is now at github.com/asfaload/asf...

A new release of asfald, our downloader transparently validating chksums! github.com/asfaload/asf...
Most important feat: report vulnerability window,i.e. time between publication and mirroring of chksums. During that time an attacker could update file in release undetected.
#buildinpublic #release
Starting a new project from scratch in a new language is often a trial and error approach. Such is the case for the implementation of our generic multisig signoff solution in #rustlang As we #buildinpublic, you can follow progress at github.com/asfaload/asf... Only 3 commits at this time ;-)
github.com/joernio/joern is a multi language code analysis tool. Its release checksums are mirrored by Asfaload to increase the security of downloading it. Check how at asfaload.com/asfald/ #codeanalysis #opensource
Would be cool if sharing with #buildinpublic brought some discussion, let's see what this brings!
Another item originated from Asfaload: reusing the code interacting with Github I also published freshstuff.net , inspired by the long discontinued Freshmeat
This is not the focus of Asfaload, but could provide some additional visibility.
First deliverable: a checksums mirror github.com/asfaload/checksums usable with our CLI downloader: asfaload.com/asfald/
Using checksums originating from another location than the download server increases security.
Just discovered #buildinpublic, which is what I've done with asfaload.com but without any public :-). It started with the goal to provide authenticated downloads, but became a more general multisig sign-off solution. All developed in the open and under open source licenses (AGPLv3 or MPLv2) ๐งต
With its checksums on the Asfaload mirror, Regal github.com/StyraInc/regal , a linter for #policy definitions used by the open policy agent www.openpolicyagent.org/docs, a #cncf graduate project , can be downloaded with additional security, see www.asfaload.com/asfald/
Ever missed Freshmeat? This is for you: get a continuously updated stream of newly published Github releases at www.freshstuff.net
And releases whose checksums files are mirrored by Asfaload are marked as such
A new release of @cloudflare.social 's pint, the #prometheus rule #linter has been published at github.com/cloudflare/p..., and its checksums are already available on asfaload's mirror to let you download with increased security. Check how at www.asfaload.com/asfald/ #security
github.com/pdfcpu/pdfcpu is a #pdf processing library in #go that you can download with additional #security using asfald (see www.asfaload.com/asfald/ )
Need to export your Slack data? this tool can help github.com/rusq/slackdump and as it publishes checksums in its release, our checksums mirror increases the security of your downloads, check out how at www.asfaload.com/asfald/ #slack #export #data #tool
Convert your images on the fly to webp thanks to github.com/webp-sh/webp... which can be downloaded with increased safety using asfald, for more info see www.asfaload.com/asfald/
#webp #server #golang
@neovim.io released version 0.11, a significant release available at github.com/neovim/neovi...! With our checksums mirror you can download it with additional security. Check out how at asfaload.com/asfald #neovim
Rancher Labs' GKE and AKS operators can be downloaded with additional security guarantees with asfald, check how here: www.asfaload.com/asfald
Their releases are at github.com/rancher/gke-... and github.com/rancher/aks-...
