Vienna's "Raus aus dem Asphalt" still seems to mean "in with the brickwork floor"

Kurzer Reality Check: Mehr Menschen sterben an der Hitze in Europa als an Waffen in der US.

This is a lovely article! And the QUIC bits have even worked out that way, more or less.

it isn't ELI5, but I only recently read this @apenwarr.ca analysis and I think it gets at the design motivations really well. and why it is more than "just more address bits"

#keyboard input is ludicrous. Why can't the hardware just* send unicode characters to the system? (I want my #zmk keyboard to send dollar, pound and euro signs to the system from a us keyboard layout and... lol. There shouldn't even be the notion of a us keyboard layout but here we are)

I am too dumb for QUIC's LossDetection timer.

As an open source maintainer plenty of users have wasted so much of my time before. And yet somehow it feels very different when it is an llm doing so.

I have StackOverflow answers that have been generating steady reputation increments for like a decade. It has now reduced to a trickle. SO also gets more and more crowded out by other SEO crap on search engines. It's a great resource at risk.

pretty sure claude could do arbitrary code execution on your computer in < 1min no matter how you configure permissions, if he wanted to

Why. Yes. This is the perfect time for my brain to understand why I've been working on the entirely wrong thing for the past two weeks and why it can't work.

I remain impressed at the speed #austrian #tax authorities can process your tax submissions. It's like some employees have a big LGTM button and are happy to use it when nothing gets flagged. 2 working days this year.

Swimming season has started!

I read an amazing piece about this recently! It was around how when more women started attending university, men stopped going. Lemme dig it out… Here it is: celestemdavis.substack.com/p/why-boys-d...

Why aren't we talking about the real reason male college enrollment is dropping?

We would rather talk about literally everything else.

Wien hatte sich selbst vorgenommen, den motorisierten Individualverkehr bis 2025 auf 20 % zu senken. Realität: 25,9 %. Das ist keine kleine Abweichung, sondern ein krachend verfehltes Ziel. Die Mobilitätswende wurde nicht beschleunigt, sondern abgewürgt. (www.wien.gv.at/spezial/fest...) 3/4

Is #bokeh still a good #python plotting library to use?

I had forgotten how convenient and efficient socially normalised jaywalking is

A few weeks ago I finally changed my #SSH key(s) on my #YubiKey(s) from the old PIV function to a #FIDO2 key using John Goerzen's excellent guide: www.complete.org/easily-using...

imagine how much calmer our lives would be if apps and websites would fucking stop logging us out all the time at this point i'm reacting with primal rage and have to stop myself from yelling "WHY!?" at all the GitLabs, Sentries, LWNs, Blueskies, and let's not even get started with airlines

Got @iroh.computer to work on the smallest device yet. An ESP32 with 4MB of application memory and 4MB of heap. This is a horribly patched version, but nothing drastic, just reducing deps.

Good news: The FDA has reversed its decision and will now review Moderna’s application for the first mRNA-based flu vaccine after initially declining to consider it last week in an attempt to undermine vaccine science and trust.

The FOSDEM video workflow is really amazing: speakers get sent a preview and can adjust start and end time and select the audio track. Works really nicely!
