Out of the 561,454 projects OpenSSF has listed in their criticality_score project, for which they generate a "criticality score" for each single one, a certain hobby project is currently clocking in as number 100. (yeah, I mean #curl)

I mostly like the direction Mozilla is announcing in this post, but it is really tone deaf.

Branding is like a joke, if you have to explain it it's bad.

And when you talk about empowering people from grassroots activists to government officials… include them?

The only quotes I'm seeing are from self-centered directors and marketing folks. It doesn't inspire confidence at all.

Intanto, quando c'è LEI i treni viaggiano in anticipo!

screenshot di viaggiatreno, che segnala un treno Porto Ceresio - Milano che viaggia in anticipo di 46 minuti, ultimo rilevamento a gallarate alle 7:05 (ma c'è il trucco, il treno è cancellato da Porto Ceresio a Gallarate, parte da Gallarate)

e no, non mi risulta che sia *partito*, è solo l'orario in cui il treno prima (RE 2516) da Milano a Porto Ceresio è arrivato a Gallarate. e lì si è fermato in attesa di ripartire, causa guasto ad uno scambio

#trenò

(e adesso posso riaprire il tracking dei treni che volevo veramente tracciare, dopo averli chiusi tutti per fare lo screenshot buffo senza perdita di privacy :D )

#Mapycz are now launching their premium version. I'm not sure if it is in response to that. But #LocusMap, a lovely #OpenStreetMap based app focused on outdoor activities built by a small company from #Prague, now has a 6 month trial of their premium plans. Check it out! 👇

I've been refining the word list code for the #Crossword Editor and recently added definition support (from Wiktionary). Paired with @alice 's excellent AdwWrapBox work, I was finally able to land some changes I've wanted for a long time. This is a big improvement on the old aids for cryptic hints, though it still has a long way to go. I'd love any feedback from #crossword authors out there.

What if climate adaptation is beautiful? What if we act as if we love the future?

Definitely a worthy listen for this concerned about #ClimateChange & interested in #SolarPunk.

Please tell me what do you do and where do you go musically after all of this? youtube.com/watch?v=ERvd5QjupS…
I can sense the signs of repetition and definition by the end of the movie, but isn't this incredible?

Did not finish AOC today because I ran into this problem with #Rust : users.rust-lang.org/t/borrow-c… An explanation what's happening would be highly appreciated. Looks like I'm missing something fundamental!?

Great discussion between Ryan Androsoff & Public Digital's Anna Hirschfeld & Alexandra MacEachern. I sadly missed #FWD50 this year, but it was great to hear about the work to bring the leadership behind #ARadicalHow to Canada.

@lisafast @RyanAndrosoff i don't know what the requirements actually were, but ArriveCan was ultimately a mobile app with local storage and some forms. So was the covid alert app, but it also needed to connect to two types of networks to detect and communicate. ArriveCan sure seems simpler.

ArriveCan chose not to build on an existing, tested, open siurce code base.

in reply to Lisa Fast

@lisafast @RyanAndrosoff no worries.

But ya, sometimes bureaucracy shoots itself in the foot from just starting in the wrong place.

But even the starting from an open source solution would have given them more flexibility.

If that kind of flexibility were actually needed, the developers could have spent their time developing for 3-4 different possible requirements , rather than rebuilding the wheel.
