I hate it when someone Slacks me with a simple "Hi Matt". Isn't it obvious? When you interrupt me, give me the whole thing at once, so I don't have to wait for a round-trip before I can make the most of the interruption. Let's not make this a bad high-latency IPC protocol.
Then again, in this case, the person messaging me isn't a programmer.
ChciaΕem pomΓ³c osobie niepeΕnosprawnej wyrobiΔ nowy dowΓ³d osobisty. Procedura jest dostΔpna online, wiΔc powinno byΔ Εatwo i przyjemnie :)
Spoiler: wcale tak nie byΕo 𧡠β
W Polsce funkcjonuje sobie taki dokument zwany kartΔ EKUZ. Z racji, ΕΌe to zdecydowanie nie jest jedyna karta, jakΔ wiΔkszoΕΔ osΓ³b ma w portfelu, a wszystkie (zgodne z ISO 7810) karty wyglΔ dajΔ w dotyku prawie tak samo, moΕΌna poprosiΔ, aby na karcie umieszczono etykietkΔ w brajlu, na co istnieje oficjalna procedura. W przeciwieΕstwie do niektΓ³rych innych dokumentΓ³w, np. wspomnianego tutaj Dowodu, etykietka taka nie jest integralnΔ czΔΕciΔ karty, jest to po prostu solidnie naklejona przez urzΔdnika foliowa naklejka.
I tutaj zaczyna siΔ szkopuΕ. TypΓ³w kart jest kilka. Ten najpopularniejszy, tj. turystyczny, moΕΌna bez problemu wyrobiΔ przez internet, istnieje do tego dedykowana usΕuga EPUAP i formularz w ichniejszym XML-owym standardzie, tj. wypeΕniany on-line bezpoΕrednio na stronie, nie staropolskΔ metodΔ drukuj-podpisz-skanuj (Polacy do za niΔ Nobla dostaΔ powinni).
Gdzie jest problem? Procedura mΓ³wi, ΕΌe w celu uzyskania brajlowskiej etykiety, naleΕΌy umieΕciΔ odpowiedniΔ adnotacjΔ na wniosku. CoΕ takiego moΕΌna zrobiΔ na marginesie dokumentu papierowego, ale struktura XML takiej adnotacji nie przewiduje. Mamy wobec tego wybΓ³r, czy wniosek skΕadamy sami, ale bez etykiety brajlowskiej, czy dziaΕamy metodΔ z osobΔ widzΔ cΔ i dΕugopisowym wypeΕnianiem fizycznego wydruku (bo przecieΕΌ o pliku w standardzie PDF Forms to w tym kraju moΕΌna zapomnieΔ), i wtedy etykietΔ dostajemy.
I jeszcze jedna rzecz, ktΓ³rΔ warto mieΔ na uwadze. O ile w przypadku Epuap, zaΕoΕΌenie skrzynki podawczej nie niosΕo za sobΔ konsekwencji prawnych poza faktem, ΕΌe korespondencja zwiΔ zana ze sprawami skΕadanymi przez ten wΕaΕnie system docieraΕa do nas elektronicznie, w przypadku e-dorΔczeΕ jest inaczej. JeΕli skrzynkΔ do E-dorΔczeΕ posiadamy, wiele instytucji bΔdzie kontaktowaΔ siΔ z nami w ten wΕaΕnie sposΓ³b, przy czym nadal dziaΕa zasada, ΕΌe przesyΕka 2 razy awizowana (tutaj awizo to powiadomienie email) jest uznana za dorΔczonΔ po 14 dniach od pierwszej prΓ³by jej dostarczenia.
Innymi sΕowy, jeΕli skrzynkΔ do e-dorΔczeΕ mamy, w naszym obowiΔ zku jest sprawdzanie adresu email z niΔ powiΔ zanego.

Last night I've changed my office's layout so I'm sat parallel to the window, rather than having my desk in front of it.
Pros: More effective use of space, closer to sockets, easier access to the radiator's valve, window handle and curtains, etc.
Cons: It's now way easier for me to get distracted by squirrels jumping from branch to branch in the trees.
We Found More Than 40 Cases of Immigration Agents Using Banned Chokeholds and Other Moves That Can Cut Off Breathing

Civilians have had apparent seizures. One had his eyes roll back. Another had ribs broken. βI felt like I was going to pass out and die,β said a 16-year-old citizen put in a chokehold. The government wonβt say if any agents have been punished.

This is so... bleeping strange, that people reduce themselves into a transmitter between you and an llm.
Ok, one decides to use it to get internet points or whatever they strive for, but don't they have enough capabilities to answer to you afterwards?
In all yours and others examples I'm lost at exactly this self-dehumanising.
Okay y'all, I'm looking into getting smart glasses with this coming paycheck. I don't want to spend more than $450 or so on it. So, what's good in the middle of January 2026? Lol I say that because it'll probably change tomorrow or next week or next month.
Anyway any advice would be great! Boosts okay.

Una reflexiΓ³n muy interesante: el Β«cΓ³digo ptolemaicoΒ» es, como el viejo sistema geocΓ©ntrico de Ptolomeo, software basado en un modelo del problema a resolver incorrecto que solo se acerca a un funcionamiento adecuado mediante sucesivos parches. La generaciΓ³n de cΓ³digo asistida por IA va a traernos muchos de estos Β«regalosΒ».
I hereby coin the term "Ptolemaic Code" to refer to software that appears functional but is based on a fundamentally incorrect model of the problem domain. As more code is generated by AI, the prevalence of such code is likely to increase.

I just got falsely flagged as a bot while trying to use the DB train connection lookup service (from first use on, on a residential connection, both in Firefox during multiple attempts, then also in Chromium, only the third attempt in an Epiphany browser got through). People will be very amused if that happens to them on a journey while frantically trying to figure out alternative connections during one of the usual DB situations. β(γ·)β

Mantis Q40 question: when using the onboard applications, I can switch between QWERTY and #braille input by pressing F12. Is there a way to achieve the same thing while connected to an external device in terminal mode?
In other words: I want to use the FDS and JKL keys as simulated Perkins-style input while connected to NVDA, VoiceOver, etc. without using any software-based simulation features built into the #screenReader itself.

Comitis Capital ΓΌbernimmt Threema
Threema gilt als sicherer Messenger-Dienst mit Fokus auf PrivatsphΓ€re. Am Montag hat Comitis Capital die Γbernahme angekΓΌndigt.
Ich mag ja nicht jedes Dateils dieses Deals zu ΓΌberblicken oder maΓe mir an alles zu verstehen. Aber ausser dem Namen des Kapitalgebers Γ€ndert sicht nichts. Menschen die JETZT irgendwelche Einstellungen Γ€ndern glauben doch nicht wirklich, dass die bereits ΓΌbertragenen worden sind, dann auf den Servern verschwinden. Oder?
Oder dass die Afinum andere Zeile hatte als jede andere Firma.
Warum ist Wachstum erstrebenswert habe ich gelesen. Das hΓ€ngt von der Situation ab. Wenn es WhatsApp und Meta im allgemeinen ein StΓΌck weit verdrΓ€ngen soll ist esSEHR erstrebenswert. HΓΆhere Mitgliederzahlen heisst auch stabilerer Service fΓΌr uns Nutzer.
Dieses reflexartige zuschnappen und diese Versuche hier einen DΓ€monen herraufzubeschwΓΆren ... statt unter UmstΓ€nden darΓΌber nachzudenken, dass irgendwer den Bumms auch bezahlen muss und das nicht mit 3,50β¬ lifetime getan ist.
Threema kann als Inhouse-Messenger genutzt werden. Evt ist das der Grund fΓΌr eine Firma eine Softwarebude finanziel zu unterstΓΌtzen.

i am infinitely grateful for a tool that helped not just me but millions of people create a reliable common network (http mostly?) api clients.
maybe well before the time I started programming curl might have been the only library in the world that helped us use apis (as of now there are hundreds of network libraries that are stable and relatively widespread, but even still I use it almost everyday from the shell).

in reply to Matt Campbell • • •I've found using nohello.net/ helpful sometimes, other friends started using it as well (for status messages on Instant messaging systems such as Teams).
Other times I'm direct, but as you point out, it's heavily dependent on receiving side.
