A virtual infrastructure that interconnects 5.4 billion people around the world doesn’t happen by accident. At the moment it takes over 14,700 people, heavily driven by our membership, to incubate ideas, recommend practices, and ultimately define the standards that enable these interconnections. In this month’s blog post, I reflect on the power of this global effort and share a few considerations about the future and our ongoing ability to serve the public interest. w3.org/blog/2024/needs-of-a-me…
In this blog post, W3C CEO Seth Dobbs considers participation at W3C as he explores which changes to adopt to ensure continued value and impact on humanity.
25 January 1999 was my first day at W3C. I was 23 years old when I started. I've now spent more than half my life at that. I regret nothing because I find the work I do really interesting, important, meaningful; and I don't tire of it because I feel like there's renewal every now and then. I've held many positions, worn many hats, learned a lot of things and I work with incredibly smart and dedicated people.

skúsim ale posledné cca 2km (každý beh, takže sa ten prah asi zvyšuje tréningom) ma začnú bolieť kolená a musím akoby meniť štýl behu, neviem či by ma toto nelimitovalo bez tréningu.
Interacting with digital assistants using our voices is not something new. Many people communicate with assistants like Google Assistant, Bixby, etc. With the
GitHub is struggling to contain an ongoing attack that’s flooding the site with millions of code repositories. These repositories contain obfuscated malware that steals passwords and cryptocurrency from developer devices, researchers said.
The malicious repositories are clones of legitimate ones, making them hard to distinguish to the casual eye. An unknown party has automated a process that forks legitimate repositories, meaning the source code is copied so developers can use it in an independent project that builds on the original one. The result is millions of forks with names identical to the original one that add a payload that’s wrapped under seven layers of obfuscation. To make matters worse, some people, unaware of the malice of these imitators, are forking the forks, which adds to the flood.
“Most of the forked repos are quickly removed by GitHub, which identifies the automation,” Matan Giladi and Gil David, researchers at security firm Apiiro, wrote Wednesday. “However, the automation detection seems to miss many repos, and the ones that were uploaded manually survive. Because the whole attack chain seems to be mostly automated on a large scale, the 1% that survive still amount to thousands of malicious repos.”
Voting Tips for the Blind & Visually Impaired With election season right around the corner, and our video showcasing accessible voting machines , we wanted to share some tips for voting when you are blind or visually impaired.
for anyone that has the Zoom H1E recorder you will want to listen to this file of me updating my recorder. I figured out how to do it, and part of the procedure does not talk. I hope you find this helpful, and useful.
Seeing beyond sight: fighting ableism. In a world sculpted by visuals, where the majority navigates life through what they can see, being blind offers a unique perspective on visibility and …
It was March 2022 when I sold CSS-Tricks to DigitalOcean. So it’s been just about 2 years now. This was me and my wife’s thinking: The negotiated sale price was fair. They are a big com…

Berlin, 29 February 2024 – LibreOffice 24.2.1 Community, the first minor release of the free, volunteer-supported office suite for personal productivity in office environments, is now available at https://www.libreoffice.
I was very suprised to see libreoffice treat a MSword document with embeded graph and data sheet to work, display and be editable. Whoever took the time to code this quite rarely used feature deserves a medal. Also note that it does not work in Microsoft's own o365 web service.

If you are using the polyfill.io service for your website, you may want to reconsider. This was an amazing product, but the last maintainer sold the project and the domain to a China-based company without warning, and the domain is now pointing to a chinese IP running unknown code.
I recently saw a tweet from the creator of the polyfill service saying not to use polyfill.io for this project. Twitter Link @JakeChampion And then I read a tweet that you wrote, that you gave a co...
Which should serve as a reminder that you're only in control when you self-host – and should limit 3rd-party connections to an absolute minimum (ideally zero). Nowadays, far too many websites require far too many third-party connections. Which, as shown, can become an issue overnight.
I wish to reinforce: Automattic may be the primary focus of this blogpost, but there's barely an exception across the entire tech industry. Which I agree is atrocious!
Thanks to Samantha Cole at 404 Media, we are now aware that Automattic plans to sell user data from Tumblr and WordPress.com (which is the host for my blog) for “AI” products. In respon…
Po první světové válce Společnost národů uvažovala o mezinárodním kalendáři, kde by každý měsíc, tedy včetně února, měl 30 dnů. Dnes si ale už nikdo nedělá iluze, že by se tento kalendář mohl zavést.

Jaja, pero que coño le pasa a esta gente que se piensa que eso es atractivo para alguien? Incluso cuando Cs tiraba, no era por ser un partido de centros, sino del centro.
