I’m currently working on a new Python WebKitGTK browser for GNOME. I’m aiming for it to be a better foundation to work on than Epiphany which has a huge C codebase and some outdated UI patterns. 
As the project is growing, I'm deliberating whether Vala could be a better option for the project as it's more GObject oriented, it has stricter typing, and it's compiled. What do you think?

Please stop demonizing “AI”; the stuff you have a problem with isn’t AI research or AI tech, it’s a very small subset of that domain that (a)has ethical issues with training data sourcing and (b)is being horribly misused/way overly trusted
AI research is valuable and important, and MOST of it doesn’t have these problems. It’s doing things like increasing the reliability of cancer screenings, helping astronomers make better observations, improving assistive technology, accelerating medical research, etc.
Not all AI is “train a chat bot” or “train an image generator” for nefarious or stupid purposes
Just got word that my former employer and former team just got hit by layoffs 😢😢😢
Great people. Shitty timing

Okay, so I understand that AI is cool. I understand that we can make AI do a lot of things. But seriously. First, there's a model that turns HTML into Markdown. And granted, I haven't tried that one, and I probably should. And now this? Like, no one has heard of Pandoc anymore? Like I can literally write a Markdown file and pandoc -i presentation.md -o presentation.pptx. Something like that anyway. And get a presentation out of it. Or just import a Word document into PowerPoint. Or just use a Markdown file and arrow down through the bullet points if I don't *need* to be fansy.
I'm starting to kind of understand how wasteful people are with this kind of stuff.

It is very rewarding to see that after just 1 year of my ethnography on data centres in México (when nobody talked about this country), more people are now interested:
"En Querétaro, Microsoft no tiene uno, sino dos centros de datos. Baptista descubrió a través de registros públicos que a uno de los centros de la firma que encabeza Satya Nadella se le concede acceso a 25 millones de litros de agua, aproximadamente una 1/4 del agua asignada a Colón para su uso público."
@treefit the primary goal of Akira is to offer a fast and stable UX and UI design tool. No prototypes or dev mode at first, what Sketch used to be at the beginning, built with native code and targeting Linux.
The rebuild in Rust comes from a performance and inheritance necessity, as well as safety and a more appealing codebase to onboard more contributors.
For how much I love Vala, it’s still a niche language and lacks a lot of the standard libraries and tools compared to others more widespread
Any blind folks, or sighted folks too for that matter, have a favorite non-WYSIWIG resume formatting tool that actually looks good? A good LaTeX template is fine, as is something markdown-based. Hesitant to use Word, where I may not know if margins are bad or if I didn't close a bold or something. Also hesitant to use a web app that may be accessible today but may not be tomorrow.
Other suggestions welcome, I'm just not seeing a path forward that isn't LaTeX/Markdown-adjacent. And maybe I'm unnecessarily afraid of Word but it seems too easy to throw the formatting off or to not understand what's actually going on with a block of text.

There should be an immediate ban on all packaged shredded cheeses in the United States!
Make America grate again.
Police are shooting people over a $2.90 subway fare.
There’s no way cops can be trusted to enforce a mask ban by determining who is exempt because they are wearing a mask for health reasons.
Do screen readers actually read the plus/minus/tilde symbols when doing content warnings like "PH -"?
Or are screen reader users just rolling the dice every time they open a toot with a PH/MH warning?

At home I had to install Evolution to be able to use f*in' M$365 account.
Since, I believe, Evolution is open-source, why can't Thunderbird use it's technology and support Exchange/M$365 accounts?
I love new Thunderbird interface, and Evolution gives me Thunderbird v45.x vibe.. or worse.
