Following popular request, here is a proper announcement about editing and deletion of messages available in app stores now. It briefly highlights how Delta Chat actually works contrary to how even some experts thinks it works :)

TL;DR Delta Chat is not a classic e-mail client. It uses special messages to co-ordinate encryption, metadata and group interactions and now edit/delete. Delta Chat implements a Peer-to-Peer messaging paradigm without any server state.

Delta Chat: Messaging editing, deletion and saving now available!

No need to blush or melt in agony after sending a message anymore! Editing and deleting messages is now available in most app stores :) How is this possible you might wonder? There are three core p...

1/2 "Ideme ďalej: v koalícii je nateraz poriadok. Zároveň však ďalej nejdeme: Slovensko neurobilo krok dopredu už viac ako desaťročie.

Namiesto toho je zaseknuté v nejakej obludnej časovej slučke, v ktorej tí istí ľudia majú stále tie isté škandály a vysvetľujú ich stále rovnako a so stále rovnakým výsledkom. Intelektuálne je to výživné asi ako nosenie dreva do lesa, aj písanie receptu na zemiakovú kašu je zaujímavejšie."

Custom images from an asset catalog don't automatically resize with text. If an image is not purely decorative, we should ensure it scales appropriately when users adjust their preferred font size. We can easily do it with the ScaledMetric API in SwiftUI: nilcoalescing.com/blog/Adaptin…

SwiftUI code example using ScaledMetric to scale an image proportionally with text, alongside a comparison showing different text sizes.

Adapting images and symbols to Dynamic Type sizes in SwiftUI

Make SF Symbols and custom images adapt to different font sizes while maintaining layout balance, keeping key icons clear, and providing more space for higher-priority content when needed.

😲 DeepSeek-V3-4bit runs at >20 tokens per second and <200W using MLX on an M3 Ultra with 512GB. This might be the best and most user-friendly way to run DeepSeek-V3 on consumer hardware, possibly the most affordable too. You can finally run a GPT-4o level model locally, with possibly even better quality. #LLM #AI #ML #DeepSeek #OpenAI #GPT #OpenWeight #OpenSource venturebeat.com/ai/deepseek-v3…

DeepSeek-V3 now runs at 20 tokens per second on Mac Studio, and that’s a nightmare for OpenAI

DeepSeek's free 685B-parameter AI model runs at 20 tokens/second on Apple's Mac Studio, outperforming Claude Sonnet while using just 200 watts, challenging OpenAI's cloud-dependent business model.

“Something Bizarre Is Happening to People Who Use ChatGPT a Lot”

I think I was starting to head that way with Claude before I quit a couple of weeks ago. Thankfully I didn't use it much for actual coding work; I gave it a few one-off tasks, but was mostly unsatisfied with the results. But I did use it for other things, and I admit, even started to talk to it like a friend sometimes. But a few weeks ago, I reevaluated whether I should use LLMs, and decided to discontinue all personal use. No withdrawal symptoms yet, so maybe I didn't go too far.

My #FOSSBack talk has been published! Now you can watch me proudly talk about @outreachy and our fantastic work behind the scenes—I’ve shared some insights that will show you why we’re such a special and loved open internship program. 🩵

youtube.com/watch?v=SBFo23FDIX…

Anna e só, a young white femme person in their early 30s, holds the microphone in front of the stage near a stand with their laptop full of stickers as they talk about Outreachy. They have very short hair they're wearing prescription glasses with black frames with a grey, valved N95 mask. They're wearing a black shirt with a beautiful illustration of big Mandacaru flowers in their chest layered with a black turtleneck and a black long skirt. The pink lanyard of the conference creates a nice contrast against their clothes. In the foreground, but blurred, Jarek (the moderator of the stage—an older white man in a black t-shirt) watches Anna speak.

If it looks like a fraud... it's possibly a fraud. Which is what Tesla is.


Canada freezes Tesla rebate payments, excludes company from future programs

Payments for Teslas under Canada’s electric vehicle rebate program have been frozen pending a government investigation into whether they’re valid.

🤯 Wow, the former NDP leader says that this election is too important to lose -- so vote for the Liberals. Don't split the vote.

Boy, I wish we had proportional representation in Canada!

Former NDP leader Tom Mulcair tells Canadians not to vote NDP

"If you can’t seriously say you’re going to form a government that can take on Trump, then get out of the way," Mulcair wrote for Bloomberg.

We are concerned about about the US being able to switch off or spy on our cloud instances.

But what about payment infrastructure? All payment card companies we use are US based (visa, mastercard, amex). In some European countries like Denmark they have their own system alongside (Dankort). The Dutch sold off all their own card issuers providers long time ago.

epicompany.eu/ is supposed to provide an alternative but haven't seen any updates on that in a while.
