All the books I've read about business management, professional development, and so on, could be summarized in 10 pages or so.
There are some great books out there with incredibly insightful and useful concepts, but holy shit if they like to bubble up those concepts into never ending meandering and useless anecdotes.
"You could improve your workflow with these 4 concepts, but first, let me tell you about the time a seagull pooped on my ice cream and the lesson I learned from eating shit"
Man, if Mozilla had spent any real time in the last decade making embedding/using Gecko feasible for anything except Firefox, there'd be so many Gecko-based browsers right now.
My entire journey with developing Gecko stuff and working for Mozilla started because embedding was possible (though difficult).
It's sad to see Mozilla management continue to just not learn anything at all. Misfire after misfire. But they're more important now than ever :(

Rant: I think a new interview question is in order for us.
"We have a programatically enforced code formatting standard we've been consistently using for years. Without seeing the output, will you want us to revisit it?"
If they answer anything other than "no," they fail.
I am SICK AND F'ING TIRED of developers fighting over code formatting. No one agrees on one single way.
Our way is both conventional and consistent. Deal with it.
Adwaita is really pretty freaking great. It makes designing responsive apps just… easy?? Here’s an update to Butler, my Home Assistant app, for GNOME 47 and Adwaita 1.6.
Update coming soon to Flathub!

Frage ans Publikum:
Ist DAS 2024 noch zeitgemäß?
"#SheTransformsIT – gemeinsam für ein innovatives, souveränes
Digitaldeutschland
Frauen für Digitalisierung zu gewinnen, ist eine gesamtgesellschaftliche Aufgabe. Die Veranstaltung der Initiative #SheTransformsIT ...
Denn nur durch verstärkte Interdisziplinarität und die Zusammenarbeit aller können wir das bis lang ungenutzte weibliche Potenzial für Digitalisierung heben."
Fehlt es uns wirklich "nur" an Frauen - oder an echtem Mut zu Diversität?
Es fehlt nicht an Mut zur Diversität! Es fehlt an Mut ohne "Mauern" im Kopf zu denken.
Gelder für Initiativen werden von Leuten vergeben die nicht nur "Mauern" he, she, it im Kopf haben.
In der IT geht es um Expertise. Solange Menschen mit IT-Expert verniedlichend als Nerds bezeichnet werden ändert sich nichts. Hier sind viele Mauern einzureißen.
U.a.
@bkastl und @Lilith zeigen, daß Frauen eine gute Expertise haben.
Viele Nerds (he, she, it) werden nicht ernst genommen!
I changed my company postal address on my VPS provider’s website. This sent a confirmation email to me. Which sent my auto-reply about being on sick leave back to them. Which created a support ticket. Which created confusion in their system about why I created a support ticket.I got a reply to that ticket that would appear to be AI-generated. The automated reply-tool couldn’t figure out what my question was. 😅
So many bots are going to be just arguing with each other in perpetuity.

A project analyzing human language usage by scraping the web is shutting down because "generative AI has polluted the data." It's going to become much harder to analyze human use of language with the rise of AI-generated stuff being everywhere.
Fellow white Pagans,
‘Cultural appropriation’ is not a bad word. It’s not an insult. As a white-guy Wiccan in the early aughts, I have been accused of it myself, so I know how it feels. It feels like an attack, and the immediate human response is usually, “Don't tell me what to do!”
But a huge part of spirituality is growing as a person, and religious practice changes as we change and grow. We leave behind things that don't work and tweak the new to fit us. If your practice hasn't changed one bit in 20 years, you're doing it wrong.
Neopaganism is still brand new, and there will be growing pains. We are still creating it as we speak. So it is vital that we listen. Listen to marginalized groups, listen to other living traditions, listen to the people whose cultures are being twisted.
We can be better than the old white men of history, we can be better than colonizers, we don't need to copy what other traditions are doing, we’re making our own.
Is there anything more awkward than German and Americans emailing each other?:

Убрать теорию Дарвина из школьных учебников предложил помощник председателя правительства РФ Муслим Хучиев. Он утверждает, что она противоречит религиозному воспитанию и способствует духовному разложению детей. Хучиев адресовал это предложение министру просвещения, заявив, что все религии отвергли теорию эволюции и что её не следует преподавать детям.
Скажите как? Как эти идиоты попадают во власть? Почему не видно высказываний ни одного умного человека из думы?
Мне только непонятно, по какому критерию выбирают в депутаты? Неужели по критерию - "чем тупее будет моя предвыборная кампания, тем гарантированнее я попаду в правительство"?
И кто же их выбирает? Я точно за них не голосовал.
Today, our job is simple - to inspire to to try a Thunderbird Add-on to boost your productivity! If you don't know where to get started, our community (including here on Mastodon!) gave us some great ideas. 💡
Alright, here's an idea: push gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland… forward, and integrate github.com/Ximi1970/systray-x into your codebase so that wae can have a proper TB tray implementation on Linux for both Wayland and X11.
That'd be a nice productivity win for me!
I'm plastered now, and not in the way i want to be.
Is your company using a quantum-safe email provider in 2024?
Not yet? Upgrade now! 🔐
Here’s how Tuta Mail can help your business 👉 tuta.com/blog/how-companies-be…
As a reminder, a malicious Tuta server can read the end-to-end encrypted e-mails and shared calendars exchanged on the platform as there is no way to verify the recipient's public key. This issue has been brought up to the Tuta team 6 years ago...
github.com/tutao/tutanota/issu…
So, maybe less "we're the most secure e-mail provider in the world" and more concrete security 🙃
Not that your average Joe has 200k floating about, but still.
Ich hab da mal ne Frage, z.B. an #Dresden #Follower oder solche an Flüssen wie #Elbe, #Rhein oder #Donau.
Wie werden Schiffe, wie z.B. die #Elbdampfer bei #Hochwasser gesichert?
Ist das nicht ne große Kraft, die auf die Landungsbrücken wirkt? Oder sind die so gebaut, dass sich Hochwasser nicht wesentlich auswirkt?
Ist in der Zeit eine Mannschaft an Bord um die Situation zu beobachten und notfalls ablegen zu können?

Getting chased by a stupid AI company for a (claimed) royalty free image on my blog that I obtained from pixabay.
I replaced it immediately. It was not important, Now using another royalty free image...
I get crap like this all the time because of all the images on the #osspodcast site
I know a lot about copyright (or at least I think I do), so it was easy to just ignore the mails
I imagine a lot of normal people freak out and comply
Sadly there's no realistic recourse here. Even if they domain gets shut down, they'll just start again with a new one
Puvodni nekolikadenni zastavka se smrskla na dve hodiny na protazeni, ale i to nam stacilo na objev Polskeho Hubacka. Nase srdicko zaplesalo a jestli to ma i terasu na strese, tak je to uplna pecka.

Povodnova turistika zdarne ukoncena, hipsterske bistro navstiveno a pokracujeme smer Lodz.
@miki For that, they should have made the mechanism open a long time ago. If they had done that for all the relatively easy things, they may have gotten away with some things that are harder to separate from their hard integration.
Now they seem like they are monopoly seekers in all respects, instead of the truth, which is that the reasons are all of:
1. Laziness
2. Actual hard problems
3. Greed
“The Vance campaign provided the Wall Street Journal with a police report to prove their claims about cat-eating Haitians in Springfield. The WSJ spoke to the woman who filed it, who said she later found her cat alive and well in her basement. She also apologized to her Haitian neighbors.”
Truly incredible.
