I've often tried to make that sort of argument, good a11y means good modular code, and it means good capacity to automate. It's something devs should like.

Why
This is a unique opportunity to break out of your silo and get a fresh perspective on your work. The problems we face today — from AI ethics to sustainable design— are too complex for any one discipline to solve alone.
The context of companies wanting to rip out copyleft from Linux makes the push for Rust rewrites make a lot more sense. techrights.org/n/2025/03/19/Sa…
Well... that's... an interesting way of looking at it. My suspension of disblief cracked around, "I would even learn Rust if it wasn't such a horrible Trojan horse that is clearly designed to destroy computing freedom."
This release supports time zones 🕑 in profiles, adds drag and drop improvements, enables displaying long messages inline, and fixes many smaller issues.

This is a repository of apps to be used with your F-Droid client. Applications in this repository are official binaries built by the original application developers, taken from their resp. repositories (mostly Github, GitLab, Codeberg).
(2/2) eventful day. 6 RBs we had to fix, some failed. The Trixie upgrade to one of our builders temporarily disabled it, took us half a day to find and fix the culprits. I'm a zombie now…
3 unmaintained apps were removed:
* M17 HT: almost no downloads anyway * Mobilinkd TNC Config: incl. Tracking; and almost no downloads * The Particulate Matter App: dead since 2021, and reported crashing; NonFreeDep+Tracking

Last week, I started an Ableton Move track. Today, I finally finished it.
This is a thing I call "Fly on the Wall." Basically, I just wanted an excuse to use one of the Sliced Loops presets, which are in the latest Move beta, along with one of the new autofilters in combination with a second filter and LFO to make one of the included single-sample E-piano patches sound less boring.
I just automated the amount that the LFO affected the autofilter, which in that instance was a high pass with a sine wave LFO that essentially created a non-linear panning effect.
yeah, like GitHub was ever really “independent” from its Mother company. C’mon. The writings been on the wall for so long now. Just like so many clear and obvious icky & inconvenient signals that most of us choose to ignore.
Github's home page (when logged in) gave me a button that says "My open pull requests".
Not only is this a scripted button that cannot be opened in a new window.
The button does not lead to a page that lists your open pull requests.
This made me sad. I feel like that GitHub will become more bad now. Not saying that the A.I driven course was great to begin with. But with this the values of what used to be GitHub will erode, and the product as a whole start to dwindle. In short let the enshittification begin!
How does this change the cost benefit of keeping curl on GitHub? Is the sponsorship/free CI still too high value to be able to afford to walk away from it?
@gbargoud their sponsorship is worth A LOT in monetary value. In the 5-digit USD/month range. We don't have any other sponsor lined up to cover that, meaning that moving away would be a significant blow. We rather not take that hit if we can avoid it.

In our recent post about Accrescent’s financial future and sustainability, we announced that to build trust and transparency with our community, we’d be publishing a follow-up blog post about what we’ve been working on lately and where we’ve been set…
Museli jsme to stopnout. Nečekali jsme, že předprodej bude tak šílený a objednali jenom 6000 knih se speciální obálkou. A ty jsou vyprodané. Těch 7 speciálních tisků alternativních obálek od Adély za 10 tisíc zmizelo za hodinu, takže už také nejdou sehnat. Moc díky za podporu!
So I just realised that the "tech princess" link on my website was broken, after I made my instagram disappear.
Anyway, here's the back story: I was going to React Day Berlin in November 2019, and I was so bored of going to tech conferences in jeans and a t-shirt, and wanted to be *hyper* femme, so I bought a huge ballgown and wore that to the conference. I also tried to encourage some other femmes to join me, but didn't have much luck.
It was literally to poke fun at the fact that tech conferences are all jeans and t-shirts or like suits. I wanted to do something different.
This seems like a perfectly reasonable use of AI, especially when balanced against the documented already existing harm, which is doctors not paying close attention to their patients because the record-keeping requirements mean they are more focused on their EMR software than on the person in front of them.
I get that we all want to hate on inappropriate use of tools, but "fill out this form for me" seems like a domain where the AI error rate will easily be below the human error rate.
QC is already in the process of adopting Epic, which will be another $1B IT endeavor so this will make it sounds like they're being innovative. Also, if these tools are saving the raw audio, then transcribing it and summarizing it's providing the detail to catch errors as well. Since it doesn't remove the requirement that a doctor verify the notes.
I will note that man doctors in QC today do dictation to create patient encounter summaries (these are manually transcribed).

Teď to bude trochu pracovní. Na výkrese se mi u kót předepisující rovinnost a rovnoběžnost objevil modifikátor CT (viz. obrázek). Ať hledám jak hledám, nemohu nikde najít výklad jeho funkce. Nesetkal jste se s tím někdo?
