TIL: there is indeed a better way of hashing than integer modulo. And interestingly, while mentioned by Knuth, it seems to have fallen into „academic valley“.

„But icing“ you say, „who writes their own hash implementation these days?“

And I‘d reply: „my followers are not representative for humanity. Elite Code Ninjas, always looking for an edge!“

Right?😌

@jmdaweb @modulux you could take a look at Petals, it lets you run models bittorrent style with lots of people donating computing time from their machines

Right now, I am musing how a traditional "treasure chest" full of gold and silver coins and gems and jewelry and whatnot would actually be worth in modern currency (Euros, by preference).

To be precise, what it would be worth _before_ paying for legal fees and/or bribes, black market markup, and all the other things that could get PCs into trouble. 😁

This map of coronation parties is a good tool to see how royalist different parts of the UK are.

At first glance it's obvious what a southern/midlands English thing it is. coronation.gov.uk/events/#even…

Can we make the fediverse the welcoming-est place in social media?

We’re a soft-launching a new welcoming committee. All you have to do is reply to introduction posts to say hello and offer help.

We hope you’ll follow @welcoming and mention to the group how many people you welcomed, so we all know that we’re working as a team.

You can point people to SpreadMastodon.org, discover.fedified.com, or any other resources you like!

"Members of the public watching the coronation on television, online and in parks and pubs will be invited to swear aloud their allegiance to the monarch in a “chorus of millions of voices” to be known as the Homage of the People." theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/a…

EXCLUSIVE: Defense attorneys for the man accused of attacking former SF Fire Commissioner Don Carmignani say the person shown in this video bear spraying a homeless person in the face appears to be Carmignani.

The video, taken in November 2021, is part of a trove of new evidence that has come to light that may link Carmignani to a series of bear spray attacks on homeless people.

These new revelations may jeopardize the case against Carmignani's alleged assailant.

"I would say my client is acting in lawful self-defense," a defense attorney said.

@archos Nene, jen jsem ho potkal.
Zkus si představit, že tam budeš chtít vyžehlit pračku prádla. Pak budeš doufat, že si na ten parapet dáš aspoň rádio a v lepším případě ntb. Současně někde musíš mít koš prádla a někde komínky vyžehleného. Takže celkem nereálné. Pravdou však je, že neznám moc lidí co dnes mají sušičku a současně žehlí prádlo 😃 V obou případech je tam to žehlící prkno prostě přinejmenším zvláštní 😆

At work, we recently migrated to MS 365 for part of our email management and I discovered a tiny useful piece of software that simplifies for me the OAUTH2 based idiosyncratic system of Outlook and its friends.

A proxy now allows me to still use mutt, fetchmail, msmtp and exim to read and write emails.

Tragicomedia en tres actos:

- CNN Brasil (fundada por empresarios bajo el gobierno de #Bolsonaro y a la que Atlanta solo licencia el nombre) dice que el fabricante de aviación ucranio #Antonov iba a invertir en São Paulo, pero cambió de idea tras las declaraciones de #Lula sobre la guerra.

- Pero nadie en CNN había preguntado a Antonov, que responde diciendo primero que no tenía representante en Brasil y luego que no había decidido nada (1/2)

@polyna Ineed collabrative development models predate 1998. But I am curious, why 1996? As mentioned, 98 was when the label was coined so that seems most relevant if talking about open source.

If not 98, and to highlight prior work, why not 91 with Linux's release or the announcement of GNU in 83, 85 with the founding of FSF, 89 with the GPL or earlier with the MIT & BSD licenses?

I'm sure you could list more examples that predate mine, so why 96? What milestone in 96 did I miss?

Makes me happy when I post about a tool ( audon.space ), people talk about ways it it could be even more helpful for the blind community, and the dev ships those features pretty much immediately.

Thanks @nmkj ! 🙏
