I hate it when someone Slacks me with a simple "Hi Matt". Isn't it obvious? When you interrupt me, give me the whole thing at once, so I don't have to wait for a round-trip before I can make the most of the interruption. Let's not make this a bad high-latency IPC protocol.
Then again, in this case, the person messaging me isn't a programmer.
Chciaลem pomรณc osobie niepeลnosprawnej wyrobiฤ nowy dowรณd osobisty. Procedura jest dostฤpna online, wiฤc powinno byฤ ลatwo i przyjemnie :)
Spoiler: wcale tak nie byลo ๐งต โ
W Polsce funkcjonuje sobie taki dokument zwany kartฤ EKUZ. Z racji, ลผe to zdecydowanie nie jest jedyna karta, jakฤ wiฤkszoลฤ osรณb ma w portfelu, a wszystkie (zgodne z ISO 7810) karty wyglฤ dajฤ w dotyku prawie tak samo, moลผna poprosiฤ, aby na karcie umieszczono etykietkฤ w brajlu, na co istnieje oficjalna procedura. W przeciwieลstwie do niektรณrych innych dokumentรณw, np. wspomnianego tutaj Dowodu, etykietka taka nie jest integralnฤ czฤลciฤ karty, jest to po prostu solidnie naklejona przez urzฤdnika foliowa naklejka.
I tutaj zaczyna siฤ szkopuล. Typรณw kart jest kilka. Ten najpopularniejszy, tj. turystyczny, moลผna bez problemu wyrobiฤ przez internet, istnieje do tego dedykowana usลuga EPUAP i formularz w ichniejszym XML-owym standardzie, tj. wypeลniany on-line bezpoลrednio na stronie, nie staropolskฤ metodฤ drukuj-podpisz-skanuj (Polacy do za niฤ Nobla dostaฤ powinni).
Gdzie jest problem? Procedura mรณwi, ลผe w celu uzyskania brajlowskiej etykiety, naleลผy umieลciฤ odpowiedniฤ adnotacjฤ na wniosku. Coล takiego moลผna zrobiฤ na marginesie dokumentu papierowego, ale struktura XML takiej adnotacji nie przewiduje. Mamy wobec tego wybรณr, czy wniosek skลadamy sami, ale bez etykiety brajlowskiej, czy dziaลamy metodฤ z osobฤ widzฤ cฤ i dลugopisowym wypeลnianiem fizycznego wydruku (bo przecieลผ o pliku w standardzie PDF Forms to w tym kraju moลผna zapomnieฤ), i wtedy etykietฤ dostajemy.
I jeszcze jedna rzecz, ktรณrฤ warto mieฤ na uwadze. O ile w przypadku Epuap, zaลoลผenie skrzynki podawczej nie niosลo za sobฤ konsekwencji prawnych poza faktem, ลผe korespondencja zwiฤ zana ze sprawami skลadanymi przez ten wลaลnie system docieraลa do nas elektronicznie, w przypadku e-dorฤczeล jest inaczej. Jeลli skrzynkฤ do E-dorฤczeล posiadamy, wiele instytucji bฤdzie kontaktowaฤ siฤ z nami w ten wลaลnie sposรณb, przy czym nadal dziaลa zasada, ลผe przesyลka 2 razy awizowana (tutaj awizo to powiadomienie email) jest uznana za dorฤczonฤ po 14 dniach od pierwszej prรณby jej dostarczenia.
Innymi sลowy, jeลli skrzynkฤ do e-dorฤczeล mamy, w naszym obowiฤ zku jest sprawdzanie adresu email z niฤ powiฤ zanego.

Last night I've changed my office's layout so I'm sat parallel to the window, rather than having my desk in front of it.
Pros: More effective use of space, closer to sockets, easier access to the radiator's valve, window handle and curtains, etc.
Cons: It's now way easier for me to get distracted by squirrels jumping from branch to branch in the trees.

This is so... bleeping strange, that people reduce themselves into a transmitter between you and an llm.
Ok, one decides to use it to get internet points or whatever they strive for, but don't they have enough capabilities to answer to you afterwards?
In all yours and others examples I'm lost at exactly this self-dehumanising.
Okay y'all, I'm looking into getting smart glasses with this coming paycheck. I don't want to spend more than $450 or so on it. So, what's good in the middle of January 2026? Lol I say that because it'll probably change tomorrow or next week or next month.
Anyway any advice would be great! Boosts okay.

Una reflexiรณn muy interesante: el ยซcรณdigo ptolemaicoยป es, como el viejo sistema geocรฉntrico de Ptolomeo, software basado en un modelo del problema a resolver incorrecto que solo se acerca a un funcionamiento adecuado mediante sucesivos parches. La generaciรณn de cรณdigo asistida por IA va a traernos muchos de estos ยซregalosยป.
I hereby coin the term "Ptolemaic Code" to refer to software that appears functional but is based on a fundamentally incorrect model of the problem domain. As more code is generated by AI, the prevalence of such code is likely to increase.

I just got falsely flagged as a bot while trying to use the DB train connection lookup service (from first use on, on a residential connection, both in Firefox during multiple attempts, then also in Chromium, only the third attempt in an Epiphany browser got through). People will be very amused if that happens to them on a journey while frantically trying to figure out alternative connections during one of the usual DB situations. โ(ใท)โ

Mantis Q40 question: when using the onboard applications, I can switch between QWERTY and #braille input by pressing F12. Is there a way to achieve the same thing while connected to an external device in terminal mode?
In other words: I want to use the FDS and JKL keys as simulated Perkins-style input while connected to NVDA, VoiceOver, etc. without using any software-based simulation features built into the #screenReader itself.

Comitis Capital รผbernimmt Threema
Threema gilt als sicherer Messenger-Dienst mit Fokus auf Privatsphรคre. Am Montag hat Comitis Capital die รbernahme angekรผndigt.
Ich mag ja nicht jedes Dateils dieses Deals zu รผberblicken oder maรe mir an alles zu verstehen. Aber ausser dem Namen des Kapitalgebers รคndert sicht nichts. Menschen die JETZT irgendwelche Einstellungen รคndern glauben doch nicht wirklich, dass die bereits รผbertragenen worden sind, dann auf den Servern verschwinden. Oder?

Warum ist Wachstum erstrebenswert habe ich gelesen. Das hรคngt von der Situation ab. Wenn es WhatsApp und Meta im allgemeinen ein Stรผck weit verdrรคngen soll ist esSEHR erstrebenswert. Hรถhere Mitgliederzahlen heisst auch stabilerer Service fรผr uns Nutzer.
Dieses reflexartige zuschnappen und diese Versuche hier einen Dรคmonen herraufzubeschwรถren ... statt unter Umstรคnden darรผber nachzudenken, dass irgendwer den Bumms auch bezahlen muss und das nicht mit 3,50โฌ lifetime getan ist.
Threema kann als Inhouse-Messenger genutzt werden. Evt ist das der Grund fรผr eine Firma eine Softwarebude finanziel zu unterstรผtzen.

i am infinitely grateful for a tool that helped not just me but millions of people create a reliable common network (http mostly?) api clients.
maybe well before the time I started programming curl might have been the only library in the world that helped us use apis (as of now there are hundreds of network libraries that are stable and relatively widespread, but even still I use it almost everyday from the shell).

Other times I'm direct, but as you point out, it's heavily dependent on receiving side.
