Five years ago I improved #curl testing by randomly skipping some tests! This concept is still in use today.

In the curl project we produce and ship a rock solid and reliable library for the masses, we must never exit, leak memory or do anything in an ungraceful manner.daniel.haxx.se
Reminder that "sometime not long after December 15th", the botsin.space server, a home to many of your favorite creative bots, will be entering a read-only mode, before its planned shutdown.
(The server will run until at least March 2025.)

Hope most of you bot admins managed to migrate by now!

The CVE-2024-11053 Sunday shenanigans, a short recap in case you missed them:
Tempting to suggest that curl CVEs would default to a score of 11 ... Or an odd float value, just to hint about the issues related the CVSS scoring.
Unfortunately, most likely too many will not grasp the sarcasm of doing so.
Day 16 - #adventOfIOSAccessibility. A reminder that the more modes we use to convey important information, the more likely it is that all users will perceive it. Consider a combination. of color, icons, messages, sound, haptics, animations, etc.
When is the last time you heard of a black man killing a white, homeless man on the subway, and then getting invited to a festive event by the Vice President?
Oh… that never happened?
That is strange, because a white man killing a black, homeless man on the subway just got invited to a festive event… by the incoming Vice President.
Nuts!
FindMyDevice je open-source služba pro nalezení ztraceného mobilu
infoek.cz/findmydevice-je-open…
V dnešní době se nevyplácí krást mobilní telefony, jelikož mohou obsahovat různé bezpečnostní aplikace. Každý chytrý mobil má již od výrobce funkci pro jeho nalezení v případě ztráty. Funguje to dobře a zachránit to může mobil za několik desítek tisíc Kč. Kam ale tato data o mém pohybu na mapě vlastně tečou? Samozřejmě většinou do Googlu, Applu a dalších velkých společností. Někomu to vůbec nevadí, což je v pořádku, ale někomu to zkrátka vadí. Jaká je alternativa?

I have to admit the idea that posting fake job postings in order to pantomime growth should count as illegal stock manipulation is pretty compelling.

Happy Birthday, Zamenhof! 🎉💚
Today, we celebrate the 165th birthday of Ludoviko Lazaro Zamenhof, the visionary creator of Esperanto. His goal was to establish a language that would facilitate communication among people from different countries and cultures, thereby contributing to peace and cooperation among nations.
Esperanto is now the most successful planned language in the world, with millions of speakers in over 120 countries. It is utilized on the internet, in social media, and even in some universities and institutions. But Esperanto is not just a language—it's a movement. It represents a community of individuals united by the common goal of promoting peace, unity, cultural richness, understanding, and cooperation among all people. Esperanto is a language of hope, unity, and love.
Zamenhof's vision is more relevant than ever. In an era of increasing globalization and interconnectedness, Esperanto provides an opportunity for people from diverse cultures and countries to communicate and collaborate without language barriers.
Moreover, Esperanto serves as a valuable tool for inclusion and accessibility, thanks to its simplicity and regular structure. It not only eases communication between speakers of different native languages but also supports neurodiverse individuals who may struggle with learning natural languages or navigating irregular writing systems like English orthography. Thus, Esperanto can promote accessibility in education.
What makes Esperanto so special? Its simple, logical grammar and vocabulary derived from the most common European roots make it incredibly easy to learn. Its phonetic spelling features one sound per letter and one letter for every sound, unlike English or French. Beyond its practical benefits, Esperanto embodies the noble ideals of mutual understanding, cultural exchange, and the brotherhood of all people.
In our increasingly interconnected world, Esperanto has found new life on the internet, where online communities and resources allow learners to connect across borders. It is truly a language of the digital age, used for everything from casual conversation to academic discourse.
As we celebrate Zamenhof's 165th birthday, let us embrace his timeless vision of a more harmonious world, where Esperanto serves as a bridge between cultures. By learning this beautiful language, we honor the legacy of its creator and take a meaningful step toward a more peaceful and productive coexistence for all.
Happy birthday, Zamenhof! Your dream lives on. ✨ Thank you for your inexhaustible legacy and the inspiration you have given us all. Let us unite humanity and reach for the stars! ✨
