It seems to me that the mainstream software industry is no longer attractive to our best and brightest young technologists. This is sad. dragonscave.space/@TheQuinbox/…
"It might help if I had any idea what I want to be when I grow up, but I don't. Probably not a programmer, the thought of working on microservices and bloated web stuff all day does not appeal to me. But...what else? <shrug>"

Rustls Outperforms OpenSSL and BoringSSL
memorysafety.org/blog/rustls-p…
news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4…
Apparently some fiddlery went on with the CPU, but even if Rustls is "only as fast as" the traditional solutions, I feel like it''s a hell of a lot safer from a security POV.
openssl-library.org/news/vulne… (about 10-20 a year) vs ... 2 for Rustls. Now 2 a year. 2 as in forever
Now granted Rustls has less legacy technical debt and baggage and is written in a memory safe language... Which I guess is sort of the point, it's more secure. So if it's as performant...
ISRG has been investing heavily in the Rustls TLS library over the past few years. Our goal is to create a library that is both memory safe and a leader in performance.www.memorysafety.org

The Accessibility Operations Guidebook by @viscousplatypus is finally out!
Spoiler alert: I, along with many other accessibility practitioners, are quoted in and contributed to it. But don't read it for those quotes; read it because Devon is exceptionally skilled in this space and has put so much care into this book!
I've only gotten sneak peeks into this book, but I already know it will be one of the best accessibility books I'll get to read. Check it out!

Expanding Access: Introducing Aira ASL 🌱
We are excited to announce a new initiative at Aira to support the Deaf Community with on-demand ASL interpreting services. Recognizing a gap in access to interpreters in public spaces like retail stores, airports, and banks, we've developed a separate app, Aira ASL, to offer immediate and reliable interpreting without the need for advance scheduling.
By contracting with ASL service providers and using our technology platform, Aira ASL will make interpreting services seamless and easy to access, just as our existing app benefits the blind and low-vision community. This initiative aims to remove barriers and improve communication access when and where it’s needed most.
