„Ja, ja, ja und ja, das braucht es. Die AfD versucht die Demokratie abzuschaffen. Die Demokratie muss wehrhaft sein und eine anti-demokratische Partei muss verboten werden. Das ist im Grundgesetz so vorgesehen. Es ist höchste Zeit und die Zeit ist jetzt.“

I really appreciated Cory LaViska’s take on #WebComponents here.

En X, Adolfo Núñex explica con ejemplos reales por qué la prohibición de VMP en transporte público es absurda, desproporcionada y no pone el foco en la seguridad objetiva.
Si no queréis pasar por X, ya os hago yo el spoiler: «Murcia ha prohibido el acceso de los patinetes eléctricos a autobuses y tranvía, porque se incendian y prima la seguridad»; durante un mes se han incendiado cero patinetes eléctricos y nueve coches de combustión (cero coches eléctricos). No es un mes raro. El 99,99 % de los vehículos que salen ardiendo son turismos convencionales. Y a nadie se le ocurre prohibirlos dentro de gasolineras, garajes o túneles.
Los ataques continuos contra la micromovilidad nacen del lobby cochista, que se ha dado cuenta que cada VMP que se vende reduce las ventas de sus sofás con ruedas. Con toda la educación de que soy capaz: que les jodan. Que les jodan fuerte. Están destrozando el futuro y frenando la sostenibilidad.
Fair enough. If you're interested and haven't already read it, there seems to be a reaction piece going round in response to the one you posted:
A Stanford University study in 2017 said Indonesians walk so much less than the world average.
When suburban roads typically look like this and only 610km of Jakarta’s more than 7,000km of roads have sidewalks, nobody should be surprised that nobody wants to walk in the city.
The strong lobby from motor vehicle companies also means that the city is home to 19 million motorcycles and 4 million cars. That’s almost 2 bikes per person in the city.
The city has 44 thousand buses, 4.5 thousand of which are full sized buses for TransJakarta network, and the bulk of the rest are likely the mini 8-10 person capacity buses (angkots) that have no schedule.
You get excited about sending your robotic submarine to the very bottom of Mariana's Trench anxious at the rare wonders you'll encounter, perhaps for the first time, and this is what you see miles below the ocean surface.
This week’s newsletter from Singapore! There’s not going to be a corruption trial involving a former Cabinet minister after all, and wow, the East-West Line has really gone doooowwwwnnnn…
Denise Prudhomme's bosses at Wells Fargo insisted that the in-person camaraderie of their offices warranted a mandatory return-to-office policy, but when she died at her desk in her Tempe, AZ office, no one noticed for four days.

Librsvg 2.59.1 is out! This is a stable release, with two mitigations for bugs found through oss-fuzz.
Librsvg now tries to catch shapes with coordinates that would overflow Cairo's computations, and avoids rendering them.

I'll backport this and release 2.58.5 too.

macOS Vista has been released it seems.
Ever edit a PDF in MacOS Preview and have it mysteriously go password protected, effectively locking you out?
It's been a bug for at least two years, and the workaround I've found is to edit the PDF in Chrome instead – which you can still do even after the MacOS password has been inflicted on it. Which I have many questions about.
PDF is the gift that keeps on giving.

Oh fucking great SilverBlue
@ben it's caused by "I want to install a package but not reboot". And then the need to unlock because I need to patch live to test the shit I'm working on.
Maybe instead I should have reinstalled Workstation. Would have save me so much trouble.
Accrescent 0.24.0 is out with settings menu accessibility improvements, target SDK 35 (Android 15), and LOTS of translation and dependency updates! 🎉

Time for that "Looking for work!" post, I guess!
Unfortunately, my current role is impacted by Amazon's move to mandatory co-location for teams, and my family is far too settled in Brooklyn to move away now. So after 7 years at Amazon, I'm starting the search.
I'm looking for a new role as a Front-end engineer/Design technologist/UX Engineer. I like design systems. And CSS. And accessibility. Love those things.

Ok, the bots are officially better at those CAPTCHA images than me, with a large margin. Clearly, they know where that motorcycle stops and consequently which squares should be checked - I don’t.
each time I get asked feedback about a website that asked me to solve a captcha, I give the lowest rating possible and explain why.
With a little luck somebody will read it.
I don't know that throwing soup at a famous painting, knowing it's behind glass and will be perfectly safe, is a super effective form of climate protest.
But it is sinister how many liberals will laugh and say they had it coming when they get 2 years in prison for something they acknowledge was trivial.
A new beta for Fractal, message pinning in Element X, and c++ bindings for vodozemac. That and more happened This Week In Matrix!
