trurl: command line tool for URL parsing and manipulation
One software thing I built at Facebook was called Host — basically a PHP library to manipulate website hostnames without error-prone regular expressions, bad assumptions and “hunting for dots”. It saved a lot of potential problems and a moderate amount of CPU (0.1%+?) and I can see the same thinking here.
If you’re manipulating URLs, you should try this:

#Catima 2.27.0 is out!
Honestly a fairly small release, mostly small UI tweaks and a minor bugfix. But that's fine, it's great when software updates are boring without major changes so there is nothing new to learn :)
Available on #GitHub right now, on #IzzyOnDroid within 24 hours and on other stores when they update (see the FAQ on catima.app for details).
Hope y'all enjoy it :)

The data links past releases as well for reference; generating dynamic data is complicated because it's up to the release team to determine the dates at the start of the cycle. A fix to identify the current date and highlight the next release in the list is appreciated, but don't overengineer what's a simple list of dates, please.

Engineering is a discipline of design through investigation and constraint, with the goal to develop useful products that serve users and help society.
The opposite of engineering is bullshit; substituting fairy tales for inquiry and evidence.
If the tone of my blog tends towards despair, it's because the professionalisation of frontend appears not to have made more engineers, no matter how generously the word gets slathered on CVs:

Such transparent manipulation to get managers to quit without severance.
1. Allow workers to work remotely
2. Shutter local offices
3. Mandate #returnToOffice
4. Attrition!
Remember that this is not the first time IBM pulled this trick. They did the same thing in 2017, when they were being hailed as an innovative company for reducing cost by not having physical offices. They forced people to RTO and caused a bunch of people to quit without severance.

So, I’m getting back on track after an unexpected housing emergency that I had to scramble to fix, which has wrecked my already slim budget.
I’ve had to step away for the last couple of days to stabilize my situation, which fortunately has gotten better, but it’s left my funds a little tapped as I spend some resources I hadn’t planned to.
I’d appreciate a hand that gives me some breathing room for the next couple of weeks as I work out a long-term solution so I can be stable for a good stretch to continue working on #TheBadSpace and then #Fipamo.
Thanks in advance, y’all. Sometimes, life just kicks you in the face when you don't expect it, but we press forward.
If you'll be at FOSDEM this weekend, can you help us with this sticky situation? You can find us in Building K, Level 1, Group B where Team Thunderbird will be happy to share their knowledge, excitement, and of course, stickers!
