The Joy of Coding returns today with Episode 378! Come join me while I #livehack on #firefox !
In this episode, we're going to continue to document a fairly complex chunk of code - the code that powers the customization state of the toolbars and overflow panel!
Berichte wie "Radfahrer von Auto erfasst" klammern den Fahrer des Autos aus und somit auch seine potentielle Verantwortung. Als handelnder Mensch bleibt nur der Radfahrer, was ihm unterschwellig die Schuld zuschreibt.
Mit der nächsten #CriticalMass #Jena möchten wir darauf aufmerksam machen, dass die Berichterstattung einen großen Einfluss auf die Wahrnehmung der Umstände und das Image der Verkehrsteilnehmenden hat.
Liebe #Armutsbetroffene, am 14. und 15.11. findet die nationale Armutskonferenz (NAK) in Berlin statt. Wer Lust auf Austausch, Workshops, Vernetzung hat: melde dich bis zum 14.10.24 an! Bei Bedarf können Unterkunft / Fahrkarte übernommen werden. Anmeldung und Infos hier: eveeno.com/tma24
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 …
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
Hey U.S. people: thinking about getting your ham license? Free training, testing, and a radio.
"The Make Operating Radio Easier (MORE) Project is an initiative to reduce both gender and age imbalances in Amateur (Ham) Radio, through education and hands-on activities."
Our LibreOffice and Open Source Conference 2024 is taking place next week in Luxembourg, and one of the sponsors is @passbolt S.A., which makes an open source password manager: blog.documentfoundation.org/bl…
M4 MacBook Pro Is Allegedly On Sale On A Private Online Group, With Additional Retail Box Images Showing No Difference In Design From M3 Versions wccftech.com/m4-macbook-pro-on…
Snapdragon X Elite pushed past 100W shows us what the CPU can offer on the desktop — almost 4X more power for 10% to 30% more performance tomshardware.com/pc-components… (this one surprised me a bit.)
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.)
I love this part also. The #CSAM regulation proposal is full of how it is all great for privacy, and then it hits you with this. Apparently this is scanning of all OUR photos, not of theirs: patrick-breyer.de/wp-content/u…
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.
No dostępność w bankach to jest niezła zabawa. Tam są z jednej strony pchane przez USA regulacje KYC/AML przeciwko praniu pieniędzy, finansowaniu terroryzmu i innym takim, z drugiej faktyczna dostępność, i to nie jest łatwo pogodzić.
"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."
I'm confused by this. I went to see what was different between this and the calendar in the mail client, and it asks me to sign up separately... but the signup conditions say that I can only use the free one for sending personal messages, as if I was signing up for email! The paid versions also talk about email addresses and I don't understand anything any more.
Can’t see that the calendar includes time zone support yet. Is this coming soon as it’s kind of difficult to record accurate travel times and bookings without it?
My favorite package manager Homebrew ditches macOS 12, another strong signal to abandon my mid 2025 MacBook Pro and buy newer. brew.sh/2024/10/01/homebrew-4.…
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.

in reply to Hubert Figuière • • •@ltlnx I just check the website and it is indeed not open source...
however free software and open source software aren't quite the same, but that's a different matter heh
