Rust is nice, but I really dislike this "rewrite it in Rust" stuff. It's tiring for any #FreeSoftware maintainer to be bombarded by this and honestly, as an opinion, some of the projects I™ have seen doing this have lost contributors, some have even been stopped for months.
#Rust Community, please create your alternatives written in Rust since it is so urgent, instead of putting this unnecessary pressure on communities already overloaded with demands.
🆕 blog! “GitHub's Copilot lies about its own documentation. So why would I trust it with my code?”
In the early part of the 20th Century, there was a fad for "Radium". The magical, radioactive substance that glowed in the dark. The market had decided that Radium was The Next Big Thing and tried to shove it into every product. There …

Only 7 days left in the European Citizens’ Initiative to tax the ultrarich to finance the climate transition.

It takes less than 5 minutes.
There are two solutions to ARIA Live Region issues:
1. Don’t use ARIA Live Regions (but use focus, dialogs, or other managing of what’s going on)
2. Put the live region in the DOM at page load (They cost nothing. If you need an alert and a status, put two divs in with both roles.)

Odnoszę wrażenie, że to całe gadanie o dostępności to jest często taki PR - mówimy o tym jak nam pasuje, ale realnych problemów nie rozwiązujemy.
Jak to jest, że ktoś kto troszkę wypada poza standardową metryczkę klienta banku nie może założyć konta? W Polsce są pewnie dziesiątki tysięcy takich osób.
Jeśli bank nie respektuje pełnomocnika notarialnego, to powinien płacić nie wiem jak grube grzywny.
"If you walk by my office, you'll often hear me cursing at a computer. It is always the same curse: "FOR GOD'S SAKE, STOP HELPING ME!" You're not good at it, you don't know what I want, just get out of my way. Every time I get a new computer, I spend about an hour turning off all automated assistance so I can get some actual work done. Predictive text is always wrong. Auto type and auto format are always wrong. And now here comes Gemini."

Alles , was Ario Mirzaie MdA, B90/Die Grünen gestern im Plenum sagte:
☑️ ☑️ ☑️
Ein unglaublich guter Beitrag.
Ein mit so viel Zurückhaltung geschriebener Beitrag, der die Schamesröte in das Gesicht so vieler Akteur*innen treiben sollte, die sich stattdessen täglich selbst beweihräuchern.
Alle Probleme sind on point in den Text verflechtet.
Have you tried out the all new Tuta Calendar app yet?! 💃
This major update includes external calendar sync, offline functionality, and more!
Here is a sneak peek of what you can look forward to 😘

Štve mě to politikum, které maximálně ovládlo diskusi a vývoj ohledně digitalizace státu.
Společně s kolegy z oboru jsme dali dohromady náš odborný postoj k budoucímu směřování digitalizace služeb veřejné správy.
Míň nás zajímá, kdo za co může, ale víc to, na co je teď potřeba se soustředit, abychom pokračovali v započatém trendu a zachování stabilní a kontinuální priority digitalizace na nejvyšší politické úrovni.
Podepište nebo sdílejte, prosím.
No he visto opiniones en el fedi, así que pregunto: ¿que os parece la idea de Rueda (presidente de la Xunta de Galicia) de crear una empresa pública comercializadora de energía?
Que eso es una idea de hace muuucho tiempo del BNG.
Y que ahora tiene a todo el sistema mediático a su servicio limpiándole (mas) el sable y haciéndole campaña.
Es verdad, y no solo del BNG; pero no deja de sorprenderme que haya tirado por ahí, especialmente después de haberlo rechazado tanto tiempo.
No sé si hay que ver flexibilidad ideológica, oportunismo, un poco de cada... O que a lo mejor está cambiando el sentido común sobre este tema.

in reply to Hubert Figuière • • •Sounds reasonable though? The author is only defending their rights, doesn't seem more "unfree" to me than say, the anticapitalist software license[1].
Edit: my bad, it sure isn't free software in definition anymore
