Wow, what a great use of MCP for interacting with Chrome Devtools: addyosmani.com/blog/devtools-m…
I tried this with gemini-cli and it works quite well. Obviously, any other MCP client will work!

> I další mužští lídři pirátských kandidátek připisují masivní úspěch svých kolegyň především kampani Kroužkuj ženu.

Ale prdlajz… prostě ve sněmovně voliči chtěli ženy. Já jsem třeba ani nevěděl, že nějaká taková iniciativa existovala. A tohle je přesně ten důvod, proč…

„Kdybych vyzval ke kroužkování mužů, ve straně končím.“ Někteří přeskákaní piráti nesou neúspěch těžce

Piráti získali osmnáct poslaneckých křesel, patnáct z nich připadlo ženám. Ty většinou přeskočily i muže na prvních příčkách kandidátek. To v části strany vyvolává pnutí.

To give you some numbers: had we kept all apps that were ever added to IzzyOnDroid, we'd now be at about 2.5k apps in our repo. But since our repo started back in 2016…

* 687 apps have been removed
* 437 apps have been removed when they reached F-Droid (back when we still removed them at that point)
* 1.294 are listed as of today

So in summary, 2.418 apps were here altogether.

Oh, PS: 2 of the updated apps were "resurrected" ones today: one was "dormant" since 2018, the other since 2020. Trying to upstream our app metadata (Fastlane structures) we are reaching out to many devs, and these two felt motivated enough to pick up development again and make new releases. One of them even 2 releases in short succession :awesome: That was Senslogs, from 2018, which is now even confirmed as Reproducible Build: apt.izzysoft.de/packages/fr.in… 🥳

We hope you enjoy them!

In case anyone else needs to put a Windows ISO onto a USB stick and, for some strange reason, needs to do it from Linux, I figured out that I can't just dd the ISO to the USB device, or I end up with an image that my computer doesn't detect as being bootable. I found this tool that worked like a charm: github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB

Sunday.

I'm most pleased to report that at 12:17PM yesterday afternoon, Kim delivered our son Bertie. He came out with the right numbers of toes, fingers, ears (sadly he seems to have inherited mine) and so forth.
It's suddenly astonishingly real, this child we've been trying for (and waiting for) for over 13 years.

Kim's labour was ... Intense. Bertie was a bit on the large side. Seeing her go through something so intensely physical was a real experience. Being at the business end of things during the delivery was an incredible thing also. I was lucky enough to help deliver the head and cutting the chord was special too. Kim did need a couple of stitches, but I don't think the pain relief for that was anywhere near the levels of joy from having her newborn son on her chest while they put those in.

But he's here, all 4.74 kg of him. the induction process started last Sunday, which meant that having the waters broken at about 10:00PM Friday night felt like an age. Building up through early labour was slow and very painful and, I suppose laborious is an appropriate word, but the delivery process itself, the whole "push" thing, was amazingly fast - the midwives were surprised that the head was there so quickly.

Kim's a little sore, but remarkably nowhere near as badly than when she was butchered having Lily, who weighed a good 2 pounds less.

The housework all got done in plenty of time. The mother-in-law has a week with us to be of some use and play with her new grandson. Our daughter is thrilled. even the dog is protective. It couldn't really have been a better end to the start of the next phase in our lives.
So please boost a toot to little Bertie Randall. May his life be full of all of the joys the world has to offer.

a newborn baby is dressed snugly in a white onesie decorated with illustrations of small, stylized dogs in blue, yellow, and beige, and partly wrapped up in a blanket. Baby Bertie has a light complexion and very short, fine hair on his head. his eyes are open, and he's got slightly furrowed brows in this image. with his right hand up near his face, with fingers gently curled.

I remain uncertain on the ethics of using generative AI, and I know I've posted some hard-line anti-genAI takes here and elsewhere. But if one is interested in locally runnable models, IBM Granite 4.0 is worth a look IMO. ibm.com/new/announcements/ibm-… It uses something other than the typical transformer architecture, allowing for much longer contexts with much less RAM usage. Also interested in what they mean by "ethically acquired" data. cc @simon

Letosni Volebni Kalkulacka byla masivni uspech Michala a Kateriny. Vytocili bez Seznamu vice nez s nim.

Zaroven je to muj technicky fail. Chybami v kodu nam uletel ucet na Vercelu. V souctu tesne pod $1000.

2. Napojeni AppSignalu server-side => posilal obri data a zablokoval cachovani.
3. Pruchod Kalkulackou pres server-router => dotaz na server, ze se zmenilo cislo otazky 2 -> 3.

Graf zobrazuje denní náklady na on-demand služby s celkovou částkou $660.37. Sloupcový diagram pokrývá období od poloviny září do poloviny října a ukazuje postupný nárůst využití, přičemž nejvýraznější špička nastala začátkem října (kolem 1. a 3. října) s hodnotami přesahujícími 120-150 jednotek. Každý sloupec je barevně rozdělen do několika vrstev (modrá, oranžová, zelená, fialová), které reprezentují různé typy služeb nebo zdrojů. Po špičce začátkem října následuje výrazný pokles aktivity.
Analytický dashboard webu volebníkalkulacka.cz ukazuje impresivní statistiky s 5,9 miliony unikátních návštěvníků, 6,8 miliony celkových návštěv a 166 miliony zobrazení stránek v historii webu. Graf návštěvnosti zobrazuje několik výrazných špiček - největší na podzim 2022 (přes 22 milionů zobrazení), další na jaře 2024 (18 milionů) a menší v létě 2024 a na konci roku 2025. V době zachycení má web 89 současných návštěvníků, průměrná délka návštěvy je 5 minut 44 sekund a míra okamžitého opuštění (bounce rate) činí 41%.
Detailní fakturační přehled služeb Vercel zobrazuje rozpis nákladů ve výši $660.37 rozdělený do tří hlavních kategorií. V sekci Vercel Delivery Network jsou nejvyšší náklady za Edge Requests ($331.67 za 127.85M požadavků nad rámec limitu) a Fast Data Transfer ($197.62 za 1 TB přenesených dat). Vercel Functions vygenerovaly náklady především za Fluid Active CPU ($84.41 za 458 hodin), Function Invocations ($28.80 za 48M volání) a Fast Origin Transfer ($17.11 za 285 GB). Služby v kategorii Content, Caching & Optimization (ISR Reads, ISR Writes, Source Images) zůstaly v rámci zahrnutých limitů a nevygenerovaly žádné dodatečné poplatky. Tabulka jasně ukazuje, které služby překročily zahrnuté množství a kolik bylo účtováno za on-demand využití nad tyto limity.

@zoul Je to tak, jak rikaji borci z Vercelu: Next je infrastruktura definovana v kodu. Coz znamena, ze nad tou infrastrukturou musis premyslet, kdyz ten kod pises.

Hezky priklad jsou ty karticky. Mas stranku, kde je 50 karticek a data se berou z nejakeho fetche.
- fetchnes v page a a vyrenderujes 50 karticek, kterym das ID
- v kazde karticce si sahnes na ty BE data a vyrenderujes ji

=> vyrobis 51 requestu na server (page + 50x data pro kazdou karticku).

Mně se kdysi hrozně líbilo ve Swiftu, že API pro práci s řetězci nenabízí přístup do řetězce přes náhodné numerické indexy, protože je to v UTF-8 hrozně drahá operace a lidi by se velmi často střelili do nohy. Next je dokonalý příklad opaku – udělám nějaký zdánlivě triviální refaktoring nebo navrhnu zdánlivě idiomatické řešení a v překladu do infra se stane peklo. To podle mě vůbec není šťastné.

@slesa Leider verlieren die Menschen viel zu schnell ihr Gedächtnis.
Nach ein paar Jahren ist alles vergessen, und dieselben Leute kommen wieder an die Macht.
Ich verstehe nicht, wie es den Menschen bei uns egal sein kann, dass Babiš strafrechtlich verfolgt wird und in einem Interessenkonflikt steht.
Es ist klar, dass das Parlament ihn jetzt nicht mehr zur Strafverfolgung freigeben wird. @tagesschau

Stalwart mail server does not use the OS trusted CA roots because "there are platforms in which CA stores are not available" and "in MacOS using the native store adds huge delays to lookups"

So it's written in Rust but you gotta turn off certificate validation if you connect to services using a private CA :downs:

gotta fucking love it

@mWare so I've been doing some light testing of it, and it's fast and capable. Still need to finish testing more features.

But I have one gripe. And it's the same as I've had with other software:

I don't understand why people are so obsessed with this RocksDB / LevelDB. It's terrible. I have been able to corrupt(?) my data 3 times now. Or at least I mean I got it into a state where the software wouldn't start, I get Segmentation Faults, and tracing the processing doesn't tell me anything useful other than it exploded while trying to read the database.

This has happened to me with other software that tries to store data in RocksDB.

So anyway, my current configuration that I may keep only stores the cache and Full Text Search in RocksDB, and the rest is all in Postgres. Their Postgres implementation is completely opaque because they just turn it into a giant BLOB store of key:values, so the data is binary and unreadable. You wouldn't be able to read anything by looking at Postgres yourself.

But it's still fast from what I can tell. And I never have to worry about Postgres getting into an inconsistent state.

This video about recent and ongoing evolution of Audacity (a popular open source audio editor) is a terrific case study—or several terrific case studies—about the challenges of developing software.

I was most interested in the Technical Debt (11:45) and Gradual Transformation (16:07) chapters, about how easy it is to tangle up your software architecture (even if you know better), how the tangle causes problems for you, and how much dedicated effort it takes to untangle.
