Just got the invitation and booked the travel to the 6th HTTP workshop in London in November.
I'll be there as double agent for the curl and apache hobby projects.
Also, I plan to protect @bagder somewhat from the screaming crowds throwing their underwear at him.

¿A qué se debe que aún no podamos acceder a los datos de todo el país?
Según el organismo competente del @mitecogob consolidar los datos es un "proceso complejo y largo".
El Tribunal de Cuentas lo achaca a la mala coordinación entre comunidades autónomas y Ministerio.
El resultado es que encontrarás datos de 2017 y 2018 para 28 provincias, los fuegos de 2019 en 20 regiones más, los incendios de 2020 en 11 territorios y los de 2021 en Badajoz, Córdoba, Granada y Soria.
Con los datos en la mano podemos contarte que entre 1983 y 2016 ha habido más de medio millón de incendios que han arrasado una superficie como la de Aragón y Cantabria juntas.
Galicia es la comunidad autónoma con más incendios y más superficie calcinada. Aquí te damos los detalles⤵️
It is September 2024. For more than two months already, there are no direct trains between the Netherlands and London. Yet NS publishes a new article describing how you need to check in Amsterdam or Rotterdam 45 to 60 minutes before departure for pasport and security check. 🙄
I seem to remember somewhere in my old and addled mind that you had some sort of resource that removed aria from a webpage? I seem to remember something about a hammer if this is indeed the case and I have not been dreaming is there any chance you can point me at the resource. Cheers H

Just discovered that @protonprivacy have produced an excellent 60 page guide to IT Security for small business (and individuals!). It covers all sorts of software and network configuration. Not just about Proton products.
It's well worth a read even if you think you are upto speed as I guarantee you'll pick up a few nuggets.

This gorgeous saffron spice tea popped into my mind today so I have made myself a pot. I first had it in a Kashmiri shop in South India. They serve this tea as you wander around. It was so so good so I asked what it was. Simply saffron, cardamom, cinnamon and cloves.
For a full Kashmiri experience you can add Karshmiri green tea leaves, organic dried rose petals and slivered almonds.
For a pot:
4 cloves, or more if they are small. Sometimes I use up to 10!
4 cardamom pods
2cm piece cinnamon
1 pinch strands of saffron
method
Crush the spices roughly in a mortar – no need to grind them at all, just to break them up a little. Place in a teapot, pour hot water over and allow to seep for 5 minutes. This will allow the saffron time to develop colour, and the flavour from the spices to emerge. Strain into a special teacup and sip slowly.
Aaaah! How relaxed you feel.

@NVAccess Thank you for taking the time to answer this for me. I deeply appreciate the information. It makes sense now, the text would be extraneous. (Going to write down this info, so I hopefully won’t forget!)
I appreciate you so thoroughly explaining everything. Have a good weekend. 😊
You're welcome :) In this particular case, a screen reader user can ignore that text - there are other videos where similar such text may be useful, and it may also depend on the platform the video is on as to how accessible that is - On some platforms you don't need to use OCR at all, just move NVDA's focus to the text as you start the video, and it will keep reading out new text as it changes.
Have a great weekend!

This is super depressing.
"Between 2019 and 2022, nearly 40% of countries – home to more than 1 billion women and girls – stagnated or declined on gender equality."
Some very smart, talented, and creative friends of mine recognized that "herculean tasks" and "sisyphean tasks" seems a bit limiting, so they came up with some more.
I love these and have now collected them:

This may be the most realistic game ever made:
I wrote this blog post in 2019 with the confidence that the WordPress starter theme I built would stand the test of time, no matter how many things changed in the WordPress core.
I'm happy to say that after upgrading to the latest WP version, including PHP, everything works as smoothly as it did on day one.
Blowing my own horn here, but this is a great testament to how a modular and lean source code can be resilient and reliable without needing constant maintenance.
So... any zlib/deflate experts here?
I have a weird issue: an APK (i.e. ZIP file) with deflate-compressed data which I cannot recreate using python + zlib, even with code that tries every possible combination of parameters (with the obvious exception of providing a predefined compression dictionary) instead of just varying the compression level.
One file's compressed data can be reproduced using strategy Z_FILTERED, but for all the other files I've tried the script doesn't return any matches (it works fine with the APK we built ourselves, which should have had identical compressed data as the build is supposed to be deterministic).
Anyone have any idea what's going on here?

Reminder of how much we like to criminalize being poor.
Skipping a $3.50 transit fare results in a $425 fine while skipping a $20 parking pass lands you a $70 fine that rich people complained to high heaven about. What justification, other than hating poor people, is there for this not scaling?
Make parking fines $2000 and then let's talk about the fictional "war on cars"
I've finished adding subtitles to my 4th DebConf presentation, and with that I wrote a blog post with a summary of everything.
There's some background into curl and wcurl, including the draft wcurl logo and the recording of the Debian curl maintainers BoF, if you want to have a peak at the maintenance of curl on Debian.
DebConf24 was fun!: Security, curl, wcurl, Debian's quality:

Others have said this, but the Internet Archive's appeals-court loss to Big Publishing is a disaster for everyone but the cartel of companies and a tiny number of A list authors.
The publishers will tolerate libraries only as long as they can control everything about how books can be loaned. If public libraries were being invented today, the cartel would make their core functions illegal.

They joked:
„If libraries were invented today they would be illegal.“
Well. It’s not a joke anymore:

The most important thing here is **don’t panic**. They’re not going to just disappear. This isn't good but it's not catastrophic.
