People go to the cloud, despite the fact that cloud is more expensive than on-premises by a factor of 5, because cloud promises to get operations right so that companies can outsource that and focus on dev.
Our investigation of the security incident disclosed by Microsoft and CISA and attributed to Chinese threat actor Storm-0558, found that this incident seems to have a broader scope than originally assumed.
When I took my car to the service I noticed, that the service wasn't in #OpenStreetMap. Well, it is now. And whole little street got updated with fresh data... 😊 I like how easy it is...
What information did you use to render the roof of the building across the screet from the car repair service? I know you can give a building attributes such as "roof: gabled". But some buildings are rendered much more detailed in 3D models.
In OSM, the whole building on the right is one building area, so I gave it attribute building:parts=yes and created several separate areas of type building part. Each part has own building:color, building:levels, building:min-level, roof:shape, roof:color, roof:levels attribute.
I remember some people expressing how annoyed they were with people reimplementing standard command line tools in Rust. But here is the reality of such reimplementations: hachyderm.io/@cliffle/11332081…
It isn’t just the memory safety. The reimplementations typically turn out much simpler, partly because of a more high-level language and partly because of usable dependency management.
If you have 20 times less code to maintain, you can do a lot more with it. Adding “nice to haves” like output coloring in C requires considerable effort, improving usability of these tools in Rust on the other hand is a no-brainer. That’s e.g. why duf and dust can present the output better than df and du.
And there are performance wins at almost zero cost. That’s partly due to relying on well-optimized libraries instead of own reimplementations (yes, dependency management again). But taking advantage of multi-threading and modern CPU features seems much easier in Rust as well.
There's a handy command line tool, fdupes, for scanning a filesystem for duplicate files and optionally removing them. It's about 6kloc of C.
That seemed like kind of a fun little toy problem for this evening, so I wrote a little work-alike in Rust.
Alright I'm organizing 6 weekly meetings with some very unwilling participants, so I need 6 loaf cake recipes to win them over... any recommendations? 🍰🍰🍰

about the note on changing "void *" to "struct XXX *" I second your opinion that it would not break the ABI, but I'm also no expert on the C standard. But I believe that change could definitely be made during a major version bump. I'm also interested in the kind of changes that caused uproar.

Digitale Erpressung durch App-Zwang: Immer mehr Dienste zwingen uns zur Nutzung von Apps – und das auf Kosten unserer Daten und Wahlfreiheit. Ob Online-Banking, Bonusprogramme oder Rabatte, ohne App geht oft nichts mehr. Datenschutz bleibt dabei auf der Strecke, während die Abhängigkeit von wenigen Großkonzernen wächst. Es ist höchste Zeit, Alternativen zu fordern und die digitale Selbstbestimmung zu bewahren! #AppZwang #Datenschutz #DigitaleFreiheit
Der App-Zwang nimmt Nutzern die Wahlfreiheit, zwingt zur Nutzung von Apple- und Google-Diensten und macht Datenschutz ohne technisches Know-how fast unmöglich.

I have to totally agree with the author of this article. It is amazing how many companies are running old everything from software to computers to totally outdated phone systems.

@archos Toto je hlášení statistiky z Wordpressu. Dlouhodobě mne překvapuje větší zájem Čechů a Slováků žijících v zahraničí. Nejsou to nijak velká celková čísla. Blog i podcast si děláme pro radost.
@archos Moc děkuju za nabídku. Od září jsem teď v jednom kole, ne, že by to přinášelo potřebné peníze do rodinné pokladničky :) Vidím to až na leden a třeba osobní setkání? Jsem tvým dlužníkem a rád se naučím nebo aspoň seznámím se světem technologií, kde nejsem úplně doma.

Running #chatmail servers is <2h effort per month, according to an ad-hoc poll with 10 operators responding. Some have 10Ks of #deltachat users. Typically 300MB ram is used and max 60gb disc space per server. And all interoperate safely based on high security standards (DKIM and TLS enforced, and only no-metadata #openpgp encrypted messages allowed) .... with typically 0.5 secs end-to-end delivery. Who said again that email is insecure, cumbersome and slow? :)

Any friends know if the new Braille pen 24-cell is available to purchase in the US somehow? BraillePen by Harpo. (their contact page is at braillepen.com/contact/)
I haven't seen Harpo products in the U.S. for a minute. I wonder how much it's going for? That size of display is a harder sell now with the free eReaders.
@Jage ah yeah interesting, didn't realize they're a Polish company. Wanted to pick one up for my partner - they like the portability of the smaller displays. Looking at the Dealer page they list some in Mexico for North America, and their UK dealer does not list the product which was odd and thwarted me from finding a price. (braillepen.com/contact/) - suppose I'll also fill that form out and see what they get back to me with.
This could be a very good solution for those not wanting to connect to their phone hotspot, as that can be a battery drain. There's lots of potential here. T-Mobile launches first-of-a-kind 5G connectivity device with a special introductory discount - PhoneArena phonearena.com/news/T-Mobile-l…
Mostly small improvements, e.g. the AXML parser now supports offset16/compact/sparse ResTable type/entry, no major changes. I have not yet found a test case for FLAG_SPARSE, so support is untested and help is appreciated!
NB: this release changes the license from GPLv3+ to AGPLv3+.
• change license from GPLv3+ to AGPLv3+.
• binres.py: support offset16, compact, FLAG_SPARSE (untested) etc.
• binres.py: small fixes, warn "please file an issue" for untested/notimplemented code.
