Inflace dál zpomaluje, je nejníž od dubna, potvrdili statistici. Zlevňují potraviny

"Oproti srpnu ceny potravin klesly o 1,1 procenta," uvedla vedoucí oddělení statistiky spotřebitelských cen ČSÚ Pavla Šedivá.

No tak to je úleva. Jen se bojím, že pro spoustu lidí je sousloví "zpomalil růst" moc složité na pochopení. Úplně stejně jako u růstu emisí CO². Mají z toho takový neurčitý úlevný pocit. Dokud nezjistí, že v nějakou chvíli už všechny ty mandatorní platby domácnosti nedokážou zaplatit, a můžou si vybrat kterou nezaplatí. Ale nakonec, vždycky si můžou vzít půjčku, neasi? A sehnat třetí práci.

Happy birthday to The Crossroads Inn, my little instance here has been going for two years now.
The name was based on a suite of melodies I came up with 12+ years ago, and at one point there were 10+ parts, but parts A and B are the core of it all. The name also works for a cosy place where all my interests come together and get shared, of course. 🍻🍾
This was played on my Gypsy Jazz grande bouche bouzouki-guitar (it's a complex beastie!), and yes, that also includes the percussion part. #Music

@Tutanota Just a FYI, the new super low contrast appearance of the website view for email (and presumably the rest, but I only use it for email) is an accessibility issue and just plain harder to read. I have really good vision and it still is unpleasant for me. Reducing contrast to almost nonexistent levels may look better to some people, but overall just is much worse of a view. Sometimes simplest is best and email doesn't have to look fancy.

At least give us something closer to the classic color scheme to choose. Though ideally the more color options the better. (Or even add a custom theme option?)

this is why there is no such thing as "vibe engineering" and it is farcical to imagine a world where it even could exist. even with all the responsible code review and QA and cross-checking (which is like, literally impossible, given the amount of vigilance fatigue that AI systems provoke, and the metrics we have so far all bear that out), the long-term maintenance cost of a workslop infrastructure is going to be *devastating*

the biggest problem we *already have* in open source right now, which we have oversimplified into the term "supply chain security", is the lack of understanding that putting a dependency in your project's dependency set (package.json, pyproject.toml, requirements.txt, cargo.toml, etc) is not just "downloading some code", it is *establishing an ongoing trust relationship with a set of human beings*. this fact is *way* too obscured in all the tools we use.

Dude, I thought you were being a smartass. A decade ago I would have laughed and moved on . but now:

Dear $diety it's just plausible these days that if I google this .. so I did.

My friend is across the yard in the garage ... she heard the pain wail and thought I'd hurt myself tossing around flooring.

Can we go back and pick a different timeline This one sucks.

Quebec to table its own constitution in the coming days

montrealgazette.com/news/provi…

It's all a dog whistle for racist. First they came for people not speaking french. Now they come for people not following "Quebec culture"... (that one includes being racist)


Quebec to unveil its first constitution this week to protect the province's identity

The constitution is designed to protect the province’s values and identity and rally Quebecers.
Philip Authier, Montreal Gazette (Montreal Gazette)

Starting to wonder if the reason Québec wants to charge 180$ for the COVID-19 vaccine is because there is a shortage.

Prove me wrong, Monsieur Legault.

"Apple removed an app for preserving TikToks, Instagram reels, news reports, and videos documenting abuses by ICE, 404 Media has learned. The app, called Eyes Up, differs from other banned apps such as ICEBlock which were designed to report sightings of ICE officials in real-time to warn local communities. Eyes Up, meanwhile, was more of an aggregation service pooling together information to preserve evidence in case the material is needed in the future in court.

The news shows that Apple and Google’s crackdown on ICE-spotting apps, which started after pressure from the Department of Justice against Apple, is broader in scope than apps that report sightings of ICE officials. It has also impacted at least one app that was more about creating a historical record of ICE’s activity during its mass deportation effort."

Apple Banned an App That Simply Archived Videos of ICE Abuses

Eyes Up's purpose is to "preserve evidence until it can be used in court." But it has been swept up in Apple's crackdown on ICE-spotting apps.

Hey, for anyone looking for an alternative to #Meetup dot com, just a heads up that there's a Fediverse alternative. It's called Mobilizon.

I'm starting to use the US instance (mobilizon.us) for tech and dance events here in the DC area.

And hey, #Elixir people? It's written in our language.

btw it’s not just the lead hyprland dev who’s toxic, it’s the whole community. Go check out the official project discord and you’ll see it’s full of pepe frogs and the vibe of 4chan boys posting the most repugnant shit you’d expect them to, all the way back to the very beginning. That discord is functionally a radicalisation funnel. If you’ve been around the internet long enough you know exactly the vibe as soon as you see it.

Here's the draft of an abstract for a colloquium talk I'm giving at Indiana next month. Suggestions for what I should *call* this talk? I was thinking "It's all just interpreters!" or "Interpreters everywhere!", and then @ganshen suggested "Interpreters: the ultimate abstraction" -- am I audacious enough to call it that?

(Feedback welcome on other aspects of it, too!)

When I was a new PhD student here at IU in fall 2008, the first thing I did was take Dan Friedman's programming languages course, where we studied what programming languages are made of by writing lots of interpreters. Since then, I've been studying concurrent and distributed systems, and after about fifteen years of journeying through the ripe fields of distributed computing, I had a realization that would come as no surprise to Dan and his many associates: what I've been doing all this time is still all about interpreters! In this talk I'll describe two lines of work from my research group that exemplify this unsurprising realization. Library-level choreographic programming lets programmers write distributed programs as single, unified programs in their favorite language, and then dynamically project them to multiple endpoints. Causal separation diagrams are inductively defined data structures designed for elegant mechanized reasoning about happens-before relationships in concurrent executions. But really, these two lines of work can be respectively summed up as "What if endpoint projection was an interpreter?" and "What if you could write interpreters for sequence diagrams?" I'll discuss how we answered those questions, and conclude with a few takeaways and ideas for future work.

Look all of us know the type of person vaxry is, he's a buzz lightyear in a toy store. We've all known racists and ''crypto-fascists'' who think they're very clever when they're actually very fucking dumb and easy to catch out if you've met people like this before. There's a reason that they decided to support hyprland and not other compositors. They knew the situation, it's that birds of a feather flock together. and some people in framework do. They're not creating a big tent by financially supporting racists (we all know what these people are about, we've all spoken to them before it's no secret)
Where is the financial support for musl? niri? smithay? waydroid? pipewire? all the other fkn libraries and programs that make desktop Linux work and are worked on by a few people with little to no funding? Nope, we'll support the crappy wayland compositor developed by a fascist that has animations as its only selling point☝️

Someone left their bike and helmet unattended outside the Information Technology Faculty building at uni and this little noisy miner bird took advantage of it and built a nest in the helmet. To the delight of all the staff who have been eagerly watching it for the last week or so, Mumma bird has now laid some eggs 😍

This is about Framework.

This is not about Framework, but every other OSS project that sees the current shape of the ongoing polycrisis and says "yeah, the fascists have a point, actually."

This is not about OSS, but about tech in general being a part of how fascism works in 2025, from DRM to AI.

This is not about tech in the current moment, but about the failure of the tech industry to grapple with IBM's role in the Holocaust.

This is not about tech. This is about everything.

I don’t think #Framework understands that they _are_ a political brand. They don’t have the best products, and they don’t have the cheapest products. They have products that appeal to _political positions_. By trying to keep “politics” out of their decisions, what they’re saying is that the **literal only selling point** of their machines is no longer valid.

It’s incredibly sad to see, because I was a fan of Framework until I saw this atrocious response.

Framework supporting far-right racists?

We support open source software (and hardware), and partner with developers and maintainers across the ecosystem. We deliberately create a big tent, because we want open source software to win.

Fedora 43 is expected to be released within weeks. I decided that the late stage of the beta process was a suitable moment to upgrade my server. Several days of debugging and configuration changes ensued, but not due to its being a beta version. The most complex problem was to adjust to the new (backward-incompatible) syntax of the Dovecot 2.4 IMAP configuration. Thanks to participants on the Dovecot mailing list for recognizing one of my errors, I was able to fix the configuration and return my email service to normal. #Fedora #Linux #DovecotIMAP
