26 years ago, on December 28 1999, we migrated the main #curl source code from self-hosted to Sourceforge.
It was the new hot thing. Imagine the idea of a dedicated service devoted to nothing but hosting code!
We then kept the code there for ten years (on CVS). A period when the distributed version control systems really exploded.
I'll be at CCH again starting in about 30ish minutes until ~18:45 or so.

Die #DB_Bahn sollte sich lieber mal fragen, wieso Menschen mit Rollstuhl 'verladen' werden mΓΌssen - wΓ€r sie nΓ€mlich #barrierefei gΓ€bs das Problem nΓ€mlich nicht.
fr.de/panorama/maximal-respektβ¦
Mal abgesehen davon, dass Menschen mit Hilfebedarf aufgrund fehlender #Barrierefreiheit ja nicht mal spontan reisen kΓΆnnen sondern sich vorher erstmal beim MobilitΓ€tservice anmelden mΓΌssen.
Der nach meinem letzten Kenntnisstand eine kostenpflichtige Rufnummer hat.
#Inklusion ist ein Menschenrecht
Eine Durchsage der Deutschen Bahn zur VerspΓ€tung eines ICEs sorgt fΓΌr EmpΓΆrung im Netz. Nicht wegen der VerzΓΆgerung β sondern wegen der BegrΓΌndung.www.fr.de
manchmal? Ein bisschen? Vielleicht solltest du mal @HoernchenCecile folgen...
Und ja klar gibt's nette, freundliche & bemΓΌhte Mitarbeitende, das hab ich nicht in Frage gestellt. Die Tatsache, dass diese aber 2025 immer noch notwendig sind, taugt aber halt genauso wenig wie Menschen im Rollstuhl nur als 'Rollstuhl' zu bezeichnen.
Ist ja nicht das erste Mal, dass so eine Durchsage die Runde macht - allein der (mediale) Aufschrei fehlt - im Zug hat's ja auch niemanden interessiert
Die Bahn begrΓΌndet oft VerspΓ€tung mit dem Einladen eines Rollstuhls oder - etwas besser formuliert trotzdem diskriminierend - wegen UnterstΓΌtzung beim Ein- und Ausstieg.
Der Grund ist die nicht vorhandene #Barrierefreiheit! #BarriereBahn
ich wurde schon mal ausfΓΌhrlich per Lautsprecherdurchsage beschimpft.
Bei einem Halt wartete der MobilitΓ€tsservice, ich sagte aber ich wolle nicht aussteigen, ich wolle beim nΓ€chsten Halt aussteigen, wegen der VerspΓ€tung komme ich so schneller an mein Ziel.
Der MobilitΓ€tsservice verhielt sich als sei es ein "Service" und ich war die bΓΆse die absagt. Obwohl es Grundrecht ist mitfahren zu kΓΆnnen und den "Service" gibts nur wegen der Barrieren. Aber die Auseiunandersetzung ging hin und her es wurde dirskutiert weil die wollten dass ich da aussteige und nicht beim nΓ€chsten Halt und ich was so, ich entscheide selbst.
Dann der Knaller mit der Durchsage als der Zug weiter fuhr. Man habe VerspΓ€tung weil ein Rollstuhlfahrer (sic!) - immerhin nicht nur der Rollstuhl - sich geweigert habe ausszusteigen.
Dann kam die Schaffnerin persΓΆnlich zu mir um mir auch noch vor den FahrgΓ€sten eine Lektion zu erteilen. Die FahrgΓ€ste solidaridierten sich zum GlΓΌck (das ist nicht immer der Fall) mit mir und die Schaffnerin war sauer, ging aber weg.

Ich habe die letzte Woche viel mit #Perplexity experimentiert. jetzt habe ich noch fast ein Jahr einen gratis Pro-Zugang und absolut keinen Bedarf daran. Es gab in der Zeit nur eine einzige Konversation, in der mir kein Fehler aufgefallen ist, der zu FehlkΓ€ufen bzw. Fehlentscheidungen gefΓΌhrt hΓ€tte. Was das fΓΌr die erstellung von Code bedeutet, mag ich mir ehrlich gesagt nicht ausmalen.
Es kann menschliche Sprache glaubwΓΌrdig nachbilden. Wenn es um korrekte Informationen geht, selbst im Mainstream, versagt diese Technologie krachend. Ja, vermutlich bleiben LLM. Aber dieser Hype und die AnwendungsfΓ€lle, die immer wieder skizziert werden, sind wirklich albern und gefΓ€hrlich.
Heute: 13 km radeln mit der Flims (einer der vielen Ylvi-Spitznamen), dann Kamin, Kaffee und Kuchen zu Hause und gleich noch ne groΓe Runde mit den Kleinis und dem Mann. Zu Hause isses halt doch am SchΓΆnsten. π

I did a quick unscientific comparison. AI generated drums and bass for a snippet of a cover version versus me hobbling through those parts with software instruments, playing from memory of hearing it recently.
I invested a similar amount of time in total to reach the second verse of the song. With the generative engine, I only started paying attention to time spent *after* figuring out enough of the horrible UI accessibility to be able to get anything done with it, so although that will inevitably cloud my judgment of whether I enjoyed the UX, it shouldn't impact the comparison of musicality/usefulness.
In both cases, the original song was playing for reference with its rhythm section removed. I've turned the original down pretty quiet in these examples, loud enough to be recognisable but hopefully balanced in a way that makes it easy to focus on the differences in drums and bass.
Audio coming up. 1/4
I played the drums and bass in this version on keys here, using software instruments, so a totally silent recording setup that I could make at 4AM with a sleeping partner in the same room. I'm not much of a keys player and I don't have absolute pitch or a good enough memory to recall parts note for note, hit for hit, this was just a gut instinct jam-along.
Drums were recorded in two passes, I played the kicks snares and toms first, then overdubbed hats and cymbals. In both cases I did some light tweaking of the MIDI to get a few stray velocities and timing gufties straightened out. 3/4

**altbot v2.5 is out!** fixed non-english support! switched to a two model setup: gemma3:1b handles translations while qwen3-vl does the image processing stuff. gemma3:1b is surprisingly good at translations for such a tiny model?? now running 23.Micr0byte (Wet-Dry World)
I am blind. Seeing people who think I'm not worth the effort fill my timeline with AltBot generated AI stuff that isn't even accurate in lots of cases.
Human alt text is always better, because it doesnΒ΄t focus on ocular seeing. Seeing people think, and AltBot was designed around that notion, that blind people must compensate for missing "eye-seeing", but that's not the case. I am interested in the meaning of an image to you, its maker or publisher.
Again, human alt text is better, also because it strengthens reciprocity between seeing and blind people. AltBot doesn't but it makes seeing people believe they have done their bit for accessibility. In actuality, the reverse is often true.

The amount of discussions I have to hold because #Laravel devs don't want to write a read-only DTO somewhere, but instead add a dynamic property on some ActiveRecord contraption.
It's so exhausting, and it could be so simple, if it wasn't that the framework promotes terrifyingly bad software practices everywhere. #php
The most interesting finding from using EVs in winter is not that they consume more energy (which they do), but that charging is really slow if you don't have battery preheating. Yesterday, I arrived at a 240 kW charger with 33% SoC, the outside temperature was 0Β°C, and the charging power was only 35 kW (the maximum charging power of the car is 118 kW). With this charging power, it would take 40 minutes to charge to 80% SoC. We don't mind too much because we primarily use the car as a city car and do 95% of our charging at home, but if you want to have an EV as your only car and drive long distances with it even in winter, definitely get one that has battery preheating.
Of course! Unfortunately you have the total opposite as well: Chinese Car manufacturers and infrastructure as well jump towards MW charging.
I guess there is a point why BYD is now the biggest ecar manufacturer and not the German ones...
The greatest piece of advice I was ever given was this: when you stop work for the day, never stop at a 'clean' break point; stop in the middle of something you can finish easily.
That way the next morning you're not confronted with a a dauntingly blank page or an empty function to write, but a half-finished one you can get back into without difficulty.
I can't remember who gave me that advice, but I've stuck to it dogmatically whenever I can.

I was recently reminded of this.
A couple decades ago, I wrote a short paper that described how the basic approaches of cryptography and computer security lead to an efficient and practical privilege escalation attack against master-keyed mechanical locks, which I published in IEEE Security and Privacy (a nerdy computing technical journal).
TL;dr: Master-keyed locks have fundamental, exploitable weaknesses.
But I wasn't ready for what happened next.
1/
It occurs to me that people outside the security field might find it odd that we openly publish stuff like this. Why help people who might use the knowledge to do bad things?
There are a number of reasons. The first is that only through open discussion are we able to identify and fix problems. Another, which is what motivated my work, is educational: you can't learn to defend systems unless you understand how they are attacked.

MORE USPS FUCKERY
The USPS just changed the meaning of a postmark. Under the old rules, when you dropped the mail off at the post office was the postmark date.
Now, the postmark is the date your mail was first processed by an automated center.
If you drop your mail off Monday but it doesn't get processed until Wednesday, Wednesday is the new postmark date.
Yes, this can affect taxes, healthcare, and-- not coincidentally, I'm sure-- ELECTIONS.
nstp.org/article/usps-announceβ¦
The United States Postal Service (USPS) has adopted a final rule (FR Doc.nstp.org
but this is how it always was. If you drop your mail off into their possession (big blue drop box) but they don't pick it up until tomorrow and process it at the local post office, the postmark is tomorrow not today ...
Yes they will absolutely use this as a way to sceew with mail in ballots by disrupting processing of those too close to the deadline (understaff, shutdown USPS, etc) and now there will be little chance of successfully challenging it. At this point Trump could legally fire EVERYONE at USPS weeks before the election to screw everyone over too and he probably will.
i guess another example is if you drop off late Saturday it wouldn't be postmarked until Monday. If Monday is a holiday, now its Tuesday ...
I guess we have to expect postmark can be up to 4 days in the future now with centralized processing -- or more if they play dirty politics
@alecaddd And in doing so, created a very specific perspective that incorporated their context to decide what to leave in, what to leave out, what additional information to include that was not in the book, and so forth.
There is no canonical "right"or "best" summary. That AI "feature" is shallow, not deep.
The conversation about AI is exhausting, and I'm finding myself more and more talking with my friends about its dangers and downfalls.
I definitely see a new level of awareness and skepticism coming from non-tech people, which is great.
One question that sometimes come up with people wanting to learn how to code is "Is it worth even doing it with all this AI self coding tools?"
Hell yeah! Absolutely! Technical literacy is even more important now than ever!
