Who at the #BBC made the decision to give a platform to "Hello. I'm Michael Gove...."?
Was it Tory Tim, the DG? Or maybe Robbie Gibb on the Board, former propagandist to Theresa May?
We've only just got rid of the odious Vote Leave creep, because he was too cowardly to face his constituents.
He's an EMPLOYEE of the owner of GBNews, and editor of the Tory in-house magazine. Let him use those platforms to try & rehabilitate himself. Not our licence-funded state broadcaster.
Začínali jsme s kolegou v roce 1999, když jsme si na Invexu koupili SuSE 6.3. Tehdy byl ještě defaultní fs Reiser FS a na internet jsme se připojovali přes dial-up modemy.
Moje cesta distry byla: SuSE -> Mandrake -> Slackware -> Ubuntu a v roce 2011 jsem přešel na Debian squeeze a u Debianu jsem zůstal dodnes. Jak doma na pc/notebooku, tak v práci na serverech

A friend has loaned me an old MIDI DJ mixing desk for my kids to tinker with. I've installed VirtualDJ, which is free for personal use. But it turns out this is a "professional" deck, and needs a license to use. This is a 16 year old deck which I don't think any professional DJ would be seen dead using now.
A reminder to go take a walk. I didn’t know how much I needed to do this the other day until I was out in the sunshine, captivated by fall color in the neighborhood.

I do not think much of their interface where VoiceOver's concerned, that's for sure.
Audio quality, no problem. Interface needs a lot of work.

This letter written by Charles Babbage in 1840 is fascinating ...
... since it appears to be his earliest ever attempt to describe computational recursion in plain language
He *had* to use plain language -- the very concepts he was struggling to enunciate didn't yet have names
As Bruce Sterling puts it, this passage is “a breathless, painful description of the unique ability of software to operate on itself”
Item #12 in my latest "Linkfest" newsletter, free here: buttondown.com/clivethompson/a…
![A letter handwritten by Charles Babbage, in a neat script. It reads, in part: "“Those who are acquainted with the loom are aware that by means of cards having certain holes punched in them it is possible to weave with the SAME loom ANY design however complicated. The design is translated into cards and these direct the motions of the threads. By similar means the motions of the Calculating Engine are directed. Any formula however complicated is translated into cards and these being placed in the Engine it works out that particular formula and gives its numerical value”. “In one respect however it advances beyond the cards of Jacard. For in the case of the development of functions it backs the cards more or less so as to repeat the operation according to any assigned laws thus enabling a small number of cards to supply the place of a great many and rendering it unnecessary to effect the algebraic redevelopment of a function in order to make the cards the LAWS of that development only being communicated by the cards”.](https://fedi.ml/photo/preview/640/602287 "A letter handwritten by Charles Babbage, in a neat script.

Linkfest #25: The "Third Thumb", Prairie Strips, and Science Proves People Love Spoilers

I've donated to #SuperSwingDistricts, a strategy for donating to local candidates in important races that are also likely to "turn out" many voters who wouldn't have voted for the federal candidate otherwise. Thanks @glyph for building and sharing this 💜
Please take a look, this strategy seems compelling to me:
If you vote for a fascist, you are a fascist.
Own it or shut the fuck up.
Similarly, if you root or in any way support a fascist against a democrat, however flawed that democrat may be, you are also a fascist.
Again, own it or shut the fuck up.
And this applies to all levels of politics, from your neighborhood to global geopolitics.
I really want to use my @playdate more, but the lack of a backlight makes it so hard to see after my cataract surgery. If I am not in perfect lighting I am looking at a blob.
The handheld is a joy and it is a shame I don’t go to it more often.
If anyone has recommendations on how to get better contrast/lighting please let me know. #playdate
Jak jsem se dozvěděl a později pochopil: CF radši nenasazovat na #servery, které odesílají citlivá data.
Cloudflare funguje jako proxy, od výchozího serveru dostává šifrovaná data přes https, které rozšifruje. Následně se spojí s cílovým serverem a data opět posílá sifrovaně (a nebo ne). Co se s daty v rozmezí u CF děje, to je otazník, věc důvěry.
Rozhodně bych CF nenasazoval tam, kde běží mailserver apod.
Vhodné je používat end-to-end šifrování. #bezpecnost #webhosting

I don't really understand why the CBC hates Trudeau and wants to force him out as leader.
I don't even like Trudeau, but the CBC's constantly trying to push a "Liberal caucus is revolting!" narrative is just so transparent and they aren't even owned by a billionaire.
