The Spanish words 'año' ('year') and 'España' ('Spain') contain the letter ñ, which is called eñe.
It comes from a double nn. One of the n's was abbreviated as a squiggle on top of the other: ñ.
For instance, 'año' comes from Latin 'annum' with nn.
However, 'puño', 'España' and 'viña' come from 'pūgnum', 'Hispāniam' and 'vīneam', which didn't have nn.
My graphic explains how they got their ñ:

Auf Wunsch habe ich einen neuen Artikel geschrieben – diesmal über #Publii
Ein CMS, das ganz ohne Datenbank, Tracking oder komplizierte Serverlogik auskommt.
Ich hab mich dabei besonders auf den Sicherheitsaspekt konzentriert:
Warum Publii viele typische Risiken gar nicht erst hat – und was es besser macht als klassische Systeme wie WordPress & Co.

Vielen Dank für den ausführlichen Bericht!
Ich bin damit bisher auch sehr zufrieden.
Dein Schwerpunkt liegt auf Sicherheit.
Mir ist auch wichtig, wie es mit der #Barrierefreiheit aussieht.
Zumindest das web #accessibility evaluation tool bewertet meine Seite ganz gut und das sollte grundsätzlich auf alle Publii-Seiten zutreffen, wenn man an die Alt-Texte denkt:

TikTok is introducing new accessibility features that make it easier for people with visual impairments to see text and use screen readers on the platform.Jess Weatherbed (The Verge)
What do you get when you let (overwhelmingly white, overwhelmingly male) able-bodied developers build an operating system?
Well, you get an insightful display of structural #ableism.
As a developer, I feel ashamed about this state of affairs, reading the excellent blog series by @fireborn . We can do better, and we deeply need to.

The state of Linux accessibility in 2025. This started out as a rant but became a series. Please feel free to leave feedback, comments, and subscribe via rss or email for more stuff as I release it. fireborn.mataroa.blog/blog/i-w…
I think it's very telling that from all corners of the Fediverse, #FLOSS developers come screaming "I do it for free in my spare time, I can release whatever I want, and you can change it if you don't like it!"
As if that was the point.
I you release it as a broken hobby project, fine. Just don't call it a "fully functional" or "community driven" audio editor / encryption utility / mail server / file explorer / chat client if it's completely unusable to a reasonable part of the audience who just happens to be blind, or otherwise impaired.

Similar to iOS lockdown mode, Android 16's Advanced Protection feature is misguided. It adds security features exclusive to it which require using all of the other features. This prevents people using new security features if they need to avoid 1 feature.
