Tell us a bit about yourself! I live in Delhi, India, where I’m working my way towards a bachelor’s degree in IT with a focus on network security at Netaji Subhas University of Technology.
Ooh, you read very nice. :) Sad I can't join. As Patreon will accept dollars only I think, but not sure. You write well, friend. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Have you thought of becoming a narrator like, officially somewhere? It'd suit you good, but of course it's only a suggestion. :)
@tardis I have indeed thought of this. I do read my own audio stuff and might actually post something on mastadon since there are people who cannot join like yourself. I am going to be posting something for the public to hear soon. Its just amusing that every time I try and record, my entire neighbourhood has to be noisy hahahaha.
It is Friday after all, so I'll offer this little glimpse as an example from what I do at work... A while ago, I was working for a customer (who shall remain unnamed here, but let's call it Intel) doing system simulation software.
this and DEADBEEF remind me of one of the Microsoft coding books, maybe Writing Solid Code, that offered the idea of seeing all variables to really bad values, as a way of reminding you to init properly and use them intentionally.
That practice has definitely caused me problems with people who don't ascribe to that ethic.
This article on Haaretz reports on how mourners at a funeral admit, loud and clear, what to much of the rest of the world seems so complicated:
"You entered Gaza to take revenge, as much as possible – women, children," he said of Ben-Natan, who was killed in a clash with Hezbollah in a village in southern Lebanon. "May the people of Israel be worthy of pursuing your vengeance – blood vengeance, not revenge by burning homes, trees, and vehicles," he added.
Another eulogist said, "You were the happiest, most optimistic, and most mischievous person in the unit. We first met in Gaza, when you burned a house without permission just for the atmosphere."
Another speaker at the funeral recounted that last October, Ben-Natan shot dead Bilal Salah, a 40-year-old Palestinian who was harvesting olives with his children near the West Bank village of Sawiya, close to Nablus. "I was so impressed by you," he testified.
But apparently, these obvious crimes are not crimes because... it's complicated.
Participants in the funeral of fallen Israeli reservist and West Bank settler Shuvael Ben-Natan described his desire for revenge against Palestinian women and children, and how he burned a house in Gaza without permission

@evilcookies98 No - only the first release of each year (2023.1, 2024.1, 2025.1 etc) are add-on compatibility breaking. If you do encounter any issues, please do let us know, as we're not expecting any breakages!
is it OK if I ask why that keeps happening? I understand why it happened when you change the python version, but I don’t understand why it has to happen again every single year. I’m not criticizing. I’m confused.
@evilcookies98 We're actually working on some comms to come out to help explain that & we're working on a longer term fix as well. Basically, we hold over fixes or features which MIGHT break add-ons & put them all in the .1 release. So we only break anything once a year, and can keep all the add-on developers across that. If devs check their add-ons and everything still works - great! They can just tweak a few things and good to go. Basically it ensures things don't randomly break other times.
@evilcookies98 That's fair enough. Prior to the Python 2 - 3 update (2019.3), any update could break add-ons without any notification or set system in place. Given that add-ons can do anything you can do with Python, that could include entirely freezing your system, causing you to lose work. So the current system should give you a more stable experience, and we are aware it is not perfect and are looking at how to make it smoother for everyone in the future.
@evilcookies98 Yes - and that's why. It is good to carefully check or see what others in the ocmmunity think - just because NVDA starts with an add-on overriding the compatibility check doesn't guarantee that it will work, but it can help you keep using an add-on which wasn't affected by a particular year's changes while you wait for the developer to update it.

The moral meltdown at the LA Times and Washington Post is a reminder that independent journalism is needed more than ever. It's also a reminder that being an independent journalist is HARD work, with challenges the "professionals" rarely see or grasp.
I urge you to read this from Molly White (hachyderm.io/@molly0xfff), one of the best we've seen:

Interesting choices. Hiding proprietary services and software among OpenSource software 🤔 and worst of all, having software that are locked-in and taking data out of them is super painful and calling them "best"?
For those who wonder, these are things that I have used that you should avoid because they will lock your information and you will suffer to take them out: - Tutanota (I was premium user for multiple years) - Authy - Wire
- Yubico Authenticator is cool and credentials are portable across devices - startpage if need use google anyway - Element for chat - Librewolf for browser
Two things keep me with gmail despite it being run by Google: tags/labels and the solid GUI. I don't send anything I care about unencrypted and I would love to completely abandon Google. Do you have plans to support tags?

I wonder, what would’ve happened if WaPo just ran the endorsement - was Bezos gonna run down to the printer and shut off the press? Turn off the web site.
I know that it’s easy to say this, but… if I was EIC or whatever, I’d have tried to run the endorsement anyway. social.coop/@chrisjrn/11338000…

Vždy keď vám pristane takáto chobotina v inboxe, môžete si ťukať na čelo, že veď predsa na takúto hlúposť nemôže nikto naletieť... Ibaže, ak by to tak bolo, nespamovali by nás tým už celé roky. Takže pozor - dajte vedieť napr. aj svojim rodičom, či starým rodičom, že toto je chobotina nonplusultra, možnože to potrebujú počuť.

@daygar I'd love to say I can agree with proverbs 3:27. But it's this whole idea of 'those who deserve it'. Don't withhold the good from them. You can withhold it if they don't deserve it. And we'll tell you who those are.
@cachondo Depends what your faith is. I'm a Christian, and Christ told us to love our enemies and forgive those who have wronged us, because that's what he came to do for us. So in short, we all deserve it.
@daygar well that's a very accepting and nicely broad definition of being deserving. shame the history of almost every religion doesn't see the leaders living up to those standards. As a message, I am all for a lot of religious communication. But I'm afraid the reality is often and very sadly harder to accept.
@cachondo I agree. History has given just about every religion a bad name. While I admire their enthusiasm, their discernment is something else entirely. But only God truly knows and can therefore judge our hearts and intentions.
outside of the Pound sign as a religious symbol, the Star of David with a cross inside is Messianic Judaism, which is an offshoot of US Evangelical Christians
