"A Story About Jessica" by SwiftOnSecurity
The cybersecurity expert SwiftOnSecurity, a decade ago, wrote a parable called "A Story About Jessica" and posted it to their (now-deleted) Tumblr blog. I found it moving and insightful.Cogito, Ergo Sumana

4 Reasons An Overlay Widget Will Not Solve Your Accessibility Woes – Litz Digital
With promises like “100% compliance now and in the future” it’d be hard not to consider the merits of these overlay widgets.Matt Litzinger (Litz Digital, LLC)

I have a physical server with #raid 0 consist of two 2 tb hdd disks.
Recently I've started to receive warnings from my #prometheus about too high disk write latency (expr: (rate(node_disk_write_time_seconds_total[1m]) / rate(node_disk_writes_completed_total[1m]) > 0.1 and rate(node_disk_writes_completed_total[1m]) > 0) * on(instance) group_left (nodename) node_uname_info{nodename=~".+"}).
In alerts I see values around 0.200 to 0.550.
So my question is simple: is it really a warning and I should worry about my data, make backups, talk with DC staff about replacing my disk?
Should I check my disks for errors and slow sectors and if yes then how do I do this?
My server has Debian 12 and a bunch of different services on it, including a small internet radio, gitea, mail server and several docker containers with small stuff.

I’m very concerned about all the accessibility projects run by single people, really small teams, or full-on volunteers. They will eventually go away and there is often no (good) replacement. So many have closed recently or are about to close: Parallels podcast, AppleVis, EOWG.
It’s a whole community that is lost. Can’t fault the individuals, but it’s unfortunate that we have not created sustainable spaces yet.

Very fun working in the #curl project, btw. Excellent people there, good coop, good vibes.
Issue reporters in general are experienced people where turnarounds are fast. Getting back with logs and verifying solutions.
Nice.😌
We're thrilled to share details about our fellowship pilot program. Launching in Q4 2024, this new initiative aims to address a critical challenge in the open source ecosystem: supporting the dedicated individuals who keep our digital infrastructure running.

#ThrowbackThursday: pinch and a punch, for the first of the month, white rabbit.
(Who else looked forward to the first of the month just for some "allowed" quasi violence on your friends?!)
I come from a business / digital background, so digital accessibility has always been big on my radar. When I started in science a few years back, I was very surprised to see that arXiv - a service that allows scientists to put their pre-prints (papers before peer review) was not accessible.
This meant that all science papers that were open access (away from journal subscriptions) were only available as PDFs - which means people with digital accessibility needs could not access them.
Access to science should be open to everyone (the pandemic showed us how important this is), and whilst there is a need for papers to undergo the formal peer-review process, that does not mean we can't adhere to global digital accessibility standards.
So, I am extremely glad to see that arXiv is now moving toward digital accessibility, with its second accessibility forum in Sept. 2024. They've also been moving to make papers in HTML format (instead of PDFs only) which adheres to these standards.
If you are interested in accessibility and science, you might consider attending this forum. It's free to all and only requires remote participation.

Denuncia de fraude electoral en Venezuela: una vieja estrategia con nuevos elementos
La oposición venezolana no reconoce la autoridad del Consejo Nacional Electoral, que certificó el triunfo de Maduro, y dice que su candidato consiguió más de siete millones de votos.www.elsaltodiario.com
#WritersCoffeeClub 1. Can you foresee any circumstance where you might use AI to compose part of a story?
That'd be a very hard NO.
(I write commercial fiction. All my author/publisher contracts include a warranty clause, that the MS I'm delivering is all my own work. To use an LLM would court breach of contract—a very expensive mistake!)
Possible exception: if, BY PRIOR AGREEMENT WITH A PUBLISHER, there was a specific reason to include LLM-generated text, eg. in a book about LLMs (unlikely).
