I'm looking for work!
I've worked on Mac apps like Growl and Adium, did QA and integration on Apple's Foundation framework, and developed custom analysis tools for Field Team 6. I've also done a wide variety of my own tools, mostly in Python, C, or Objective-C.
I live in SF; can do Bay Area commute or remote.

Maglev titanium heart now whirs inside the chest of a live patient
For the first time, the fully mechanical heart made by BiVACOR, which uses the same technology as high-speed rail lines, has been implanted inside a human being. The feat marks a major step in keeping people alive as they wait for heart transplants.Michael Franco (New Atlas)

A je tu zase #copyrightiade prokazující, že ČT24 má ve skutečnosti dvě varianty - ta lepší je ta v DVB-T2, ta horší je pak na satelitu a internetu.

@tritol128 @mkyral to je nesmyslný argument. Veřejná služba funguje jako celek. To neznamená, že všechen obsah musí být vždy dostupný všemi kanály.
Ostatně ČT taky vyrábí třeba několik pořadů exkluzivně pro iVysílání, takže lidé, co nemají internet, je neuvidí. To ale neznamená, že by měli platit míň.
@mkyral Jo, to je ten výbor, který se zpolitizoval svou otevřenou podporou jednoho senátního kandidáta za ČSSD a následně jednoho hejtmana a kandidáta za tutéž stranu.

Back in March I scanned through a terabyte of old geocities sites with the goal of finding *all* the 88x31 buttons. Recently, I realised that I didn't scan for all the geocities subsites (e.g. de.geocities.com, br.geocities.com, etc). I've fixed that mistake and have added 1.8k new 88x31 buttons from Germany, Brazil, Hong Kong and many more international sites. Feel free to explore the updated site or download the zipped button archive (31k buttons, 156MB)

The End of an Era: A Message From the Founder as We Announce the Closure of AppleVis | AppleVis

In 2022 I became #curl's 1000th commit author and was congratulated as such until I had to confess to @bagder that I wasn't: I had used two distinct email addresses and was thus only the 999th.

We tried to buy an ebook... it was DRM protected and required some weird adobe ID and installing some obscure calibre plugins to maybe eventually be able to read it.
Returned them and bought @pluralistic's Radicalized instead [1].

As usual great post from @yatil yatil.net/blog/the-infuriating…
Fixing issues in development is way cheaper for sure. Wish #NIST had some values for fixing issues upstream? So many problems could be fixed (I think) if we pushed to fix accessibility issues in the software that we use.
Open source is a big part of the internet. Almost everything includes some open source packages. How do we get folks contributing beyond the scope of their project?
The infuriating inefficiency of accessibility audits · Eric Eggert
Accessibility audits are the bread and butter of every accessibility consultancy. It’s an easy to package product that clients have learned to ask for and buy. They have expectations on the deliverables and the form of an audit.Eric Eggert

Hello, world!
We are FAFO, a non-profit semiconductor and analytical chemistry research lab in Munich.
We exist to bring together people and tools necessary to advance not the cutting edge of manufacturing, but the cutting edge of making bathtub semiconductors and other Weird Hacks in your local hackerspace.
We've just rented out our first location and brought in a gorgeous 1980s JEOL T330A SEM. Restoring it to working condition is our first project, and this is where we'll keep you posted.
👏 more 👏 developers 👏 need 👏 to 👏 hear 👏 this
I can count on one hand the number of my clients over the past couple of years who haven't either over-architected for scale or were unnecessarily concerned about it (prior to coming to me for strategic advice, of course 😉).
You don't need to understand Distributional Little's Law to figure this out, it's obvious with primary school level math.

Another example of Communuty Notes on X being useless:
"This is an AI generated video of Vice President Kamala Harris using audio of clips that were never actually stated by the VP,” read one suggested Community Note. “Videos like this are dangerous to those who can not decipher AI generated content from reality.”
X is now basically Gab. Another reason to organize here.
