How is it that within 10 minutes of the Online Safety Act, Ofcom is investigating 34 porn sites, yet in 30 years of disability legislation in the UK there hasn't been a single instance of case law for websites or apps because the EHRC has signally failed to support people with disabilities even when there is a strong case to be made? 😩

#PastPuzzle improved in #accessibility
As a developer, I try to make my software as accessible as possible for everyone. Unfortunately, I often lack a view from the user's perspective. I received a list from @dankeck with at least 10 suggestions for improvements, most of which I implemented in one night as if in a fever dream. The game is probably still a long way from being a screen reader user's dream, but I'm doing my best. Step by step! #webdev #a11y

Bring us your feedback on this idea and PR: make #curl output its cheat-sheet.
github.com/curl/curl/pull/1807…
Add a new argument "cheat-sheet" to -h, --help option that returns the content from the repo curl-cheat-sheet to the terminal.GitHub
This morning we have concluded that POSIX clearly states that a command line short option that takes an argument should be possible to use with and without a blank: "-f foo" as as well as "-ffoo"
Important IRC chatter conveyed to you.
my first thought was "that doesn't make sense" but on further thought what else makes sense?
If it takes an argument then does it matter that there's a space there or not? To my mind whatever follows it must be the argument to it.
One possibility would have been to require an error if there was no space there - it would catch folks who didn't realise there had to be an argument to it (maybe at the annoyance of those who say "but this takes an argument, why do I need a space?").

Option parsing in #curl. Something we can start using in two years or so.
daniel.haxx.se/blog/2025/07/31…
We have always had a custom command line option parser in curl. It is fast and uncomplicated and gives us the perfect mix of flexibility and function. It also saves us from importing or using code with another license.daniel.haxx.se
careful though. What does curl --proto=https do
Compare:
curl --proto https haxx.se # does cleartext http
curl --proto =https haxx.se # fails, because cleartext http not allowed
So, if you would use --proto=https, you might believe you prevented cleartext http but you didn't, I suppose you would need to do --proto==https for that.

BBC: Warning issued after US energy drink cans accidentally filled with vodka
"US authorities are warning consumers of Celsius energy drinks to check their cans after some were accidently filled with vodka.
The US Food & Drug Administration (USFDA) issued the warning for the Astro Vibe Blue Razz edition of the drink.
The mix-up came about after a packaging supplier mistakenly shipped empty Celsius cans to the vodka seltzer company High Noon, which filled them with alcohol."

July has been a truly incredible month for LLM releases from China - Moonshot (Kimi K2), Z ai (GLM-4.5) and 5 new releases from Qwen
I think it's undeniable that the best available open weight models now come from the Chinese AI labs simonwillison.net/2025/Jul/30/…
Something that has become undeniable this month is that the best available open weight models now come from the Chinese AI labs. I continue to have a lot of love …Simon Willison’s Weblog
I'm attending one of the best academic AI conferences (ACL) this week, and the vast majority of papers presented are now from China. I've been to one session where, out of 8 papers, every single one was presented by somebody from that country.
This is my first time at ACL, but other attendees have said that this is not how things have been at previous editions.
The fraction of Chinese participants also went up, from ~30% last year to 51% this year. The US is at 18%, everybody else is single-digit percentages if that.
I really like this new fun @icing take: happy eyeballs that start new connection attempts at a timeout but without stopping the old ones. First to connect still wins.
github.com/curl/curl/pull/1810…
When CURLOPT_HAPPY_EYEBALLS_TIMEOUT_MS expires, start the next ip connect attempt, but keep all ongoing attempts alive. Separate happy-eyeballs connection filter into own source files.GitHub
I'm happy to report that the glitches that could happen in #curl when you did more than 2.2 billion transfers in a single invoke are now history.
github.com/curl/curl/pull/1809…
Otherwise we could misbehave already at 2 billion URLs and we can't have that. A few of the counters are already correctly using the right type.GitHub

а вот с вопросом об остановке Израиля военным путем - мысль очень интересная.
сама хезбола явно не может, раз обращается к прогрессивному человечеству. а что боеспособного есть у прогрессивного человечества?
армии нато - сша и германия не одобрят
россия - вся под покровском
иран - ну вы понели
саудиты и пр - на американском оружии
пока кроме китая нападать на Израиль некому.
I posted asking for help on this a bit ago, and while I didn't get any solutions, it did get my brain thinking outside of the box, and I found the solution, its easy, but proof that the UI, especially the settings layout really needs some work around here.
For whatever reason, the necessary setting isn't under the timeline settings, but Social Networks
The key setting here is Followed Content Scope, default is 'Conversations my follows started or commented on', but if'n you change it to 'Only conversations my follows started' if will only show original posts and boosts.
Hopefully this'll help others, I mentioned in a comment on my original post, but that could easily be missed, so here we go. Oh, and if'n you've any tag suggestions, send them my way, and I'll prolly add them.
