Cool to see a company whose annual revenue is $250B announce a $1.25M open source security fund (that’s about three *minutes* of revenue), in a press release that without blinking or apparent irony (1) says maintainers need more time and (2) requires maintainers to take a multi-week, many-hour training program.

Today's Grammar Girl podcast talks about the difficulty of learning a new language as an adult, but also about the benefits that come from being bilingual, which made me curious ...
How many of you speak more than one language?
I'm trying to learn both Spanish and German right now.
I've been doing online Spanish lessons for years (but not with much diligence), and I took German in high school and just started playing around with online German lessons too.

Every day I get a comment asking me why I pronounce "GNOME" with a hard G.
It's because when I first learned about it, over one century ago, it was an acronym for "GNU Network Object Model Environment". And the GNU project pronounces GNU with a hard G.
Pronouncing GNOME with a hard G was useful as a way to distinguish the project from the mythical creature, and I was not alone in pronouncing it that way.
Over time the acronym fell away but my pronunciation stuck.

Speaking of bread, I spent a lot of time thinking about why I simply don’t like the breads that many people like. I’ve come to a few conclusions:
1. Soft bread isn’t always terrible outside the U.S.
2. Since I eat a mainly East and SE Asian diet, wheat just isn’t a primary grain
3. Between noodles and rice dishes, there is realistically only space for crusty spreads sometimes (when I cook other cuisines)
4. The main cuisine I cook outside of those is Mediterranean so soft flatbreads work too
@modulux sometimes Europeans go to East Asia and complain about our soft breads. But they don’t see that those breads are our ‘fun snacks’ between meals. We almost never eat bread as a main meal
That view also completely discounts how Japanese, Korean, Chinese baking is totally its own thing and plays a different social role. It’s a luxury not an essential
I'm happy so many people liked my first article!

This year @igalia has contributed in a number of ways to encourage discussions and efforts aimed at improving the Linux display stack.
In the first half of the year, we hosted the 2024 Linux Display Next Hackfest, and in the second half, with a gathering of developers at XDC 2024, I co-organized the Display/KMS Meeting.
This blog post details what we discussed during those 3 hours together:

I think my paper on Dummett, proof assistants and pluralism has shaped up rather nicely, and it will be good to see it out in the Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society in a few months’ time. You can read the preprint now.
Thanks to everyone who gave me feedback on earlier drafts, and discussed these issues along the way.
There's more to be done, but I hope to have clarified some issues around how we can think about the relationship between constructive and classical reasoning, and how philosophers might engage with what is going on in the application of dependent type theory in proof assistants, programming language design, and the formalisation and mechanisation of reasoning.
Mám už hodně dlouho účet na #Bluesky. Občas se tam teď podívám, ale přijde mi to jako nudnej koncept nucené zábavy: tapeta příspěvků s obrázky od cizích lidí?

Should #Conversations_im add stun.conversations.im as a fallback for #XMPP servers missing XEP-0215: External Service Discovery?
I’ve hesitated to add anything resembling "calling home" (no update checker, no metrics).
However, the main goal here wouldn’t be improving A/V call success (though it helps) but making P2P file transfers more reliable. Many servers still lack HTTP Upload, and the refactored Jingle File Transfer would benefit greatly from a fallback STUN server.

Peter Vágner reshared this.
If it can be deactivated in the configuration, then I don't see an issue with that. I would appreciate a warning though somewhere, maybe just a Message Toast on both sides that the fallback is used. That would help notice wrong configurations.
It would be great if conversations could verify that stun/turn works completely in addition to that. (Might also be a separate tool).
