If you still wonder about the dogma of how SARS-CoV2 (the virus for COVID) isn't considered airborne by the various public health authorities, read about hand washing before surgeries:
📣 Attention all custom ROM users and advocates for digital rights! 📣
Google's Play Integrity is limiting access to certain functionalities and applications for those using custom operating systems. This is a direct attack on the open-source community and a step towards further consolidating Google's monopoly in the mobile ecosystem.
1/N Starting to write an outline of article about how open source maintainers (especially of data science and scientific computing libraries) can reduce carbon emissions, and realized I might get to talk about my favorite ACM Computing Survey paper, "Systems Approaches to Tackling Configuration Errors: A Survey" (tianyin.github.io/pub/csur.pdf) and related research by Tianyin Xu and collaborators.
This is just one point out of many, but it's maybe the most surprising—
Had to explain to another user why asking a volunteer project to fix an issue is inappropriate.
And I get that's it's a really subtle point here between saying "I also have this problem" (fine) and "Please fix this issue" (not ok)
i.e. You can only ask people you have a relationship with to do work for you. You can NOT ask strangers to labour for you for free, even if you think it's important, or appropriate.
Sending a voice message makes connecting with friends and family even more personal. There’s something special about hearing your loved one’s voice even when you’re far away.
This is awesome. Not to complain or anything, of course... But you know what would be cool? If Whatsapp allowed you to transcribe a thread or even a bulk of messages. Would be really useful for those Whatsapp groups where people like to chat a lot and I don't have the time to listen to all the voice messages which, probably, contain some cool questions / answers I'd like to know about.

Bridgy Fed fediverse => Bluesky bridging is currently paused. The Bluesky team has been working on their relay to handle all their new growth, and they’ve temporarily stopped ingesting dat…
Tohle je mimochodem přesně ta situace, o který jsem mluvil: mamutovo.cz/@Razemix/113436933… Pokud se centrální relay rozhodne ignorovat váš PDS, tak máte smůlu a se zbytkem sítě ztratíte kontakt. Řešením by teoreticky bylo udělat si vlastní relay, co bude obsluhovat jen určitou podsíť, se kterou komunikuje váš PDS. To by extra drahý nebylo. Ale to jen za předpokladu, že se uživatelům zobrazujou data, který jejich PDS posbírá od ostatních relays! Jo a zbytek sítě by tuhle komunikaci logicky neviděl.
Co se stane, když se centrální relay rozhodne ignorovat/zabanovat váš PDS? Jste v prdeli. 🙂 A asi si umíte představit, že provozovat alternativní relay, kterej bude agregovat data z celý sítě, nebude úplně levný.
Good news for Public Radio fans. The latest update to the NPR app has made it accessible and usable. The app used to be almost impossible to navigate, and both TalkBack and Jieshuo would freeze while attempting to move around its news articles or program segments. However, the latest release has effectively resolved the glitch. play.google.com/store/apps/det… #NPR #Android #Accessibility
This is a repository of apps to be used with your F-Droid client. Applications in this repository are official binaries built by the original application developers, taken from their resp. repositories (mostly Github, GitLab, Codeberg).
I am a university student who originally planned to double major in computer science and elementary education, but I’ve recently faced some concerns that I’d like to address.
I’ve been told that pursuing a teaching certification might not be advisable because schools may be reluctant to hire a teacher with low vision, who is mostly blind, to manage a classroom of thirty or more students. This has been quite upsetting.
My dream was to work with elementary students, focusing on #STEM subjects and teaching technology-related topics like understanding tech, its role in the world, and the basics of programming. Now, I find myself uncertain about what path to take.
Working with kids, especially those in elementary school, is my biggest passion, even more than tech or music. It’s something that would truly fulfill me. Since I can’t have kids myself, guiding and teaching young learners is the next best thing. It’s a career I’m committed to and want to excel in.
Being advised not to pursue a teaching certification and to focus solely on computer science has been quite discouraging. I’ve been told to study elementary education as a secondary focus and combine it with my computer science studies. This might involve developing educational systems for kids, but it would likely mean limited direct interaction, possibly just during product testing, which isn’t enough for me.
So, I have a few questions:
1. Are there any educators with #Blindness or #LowVision challenges working with elementary students? If so, in what capacity do you work with them? 2. How has your disability affected your effectiveness in the field? 3. What challenges did you face in getting certified and qualified, and how did you overcome them? 4. What obstacles have you encountered in the classroom and with colleagues, and how have you addressed them?
If these questions don’t apply, what advice can you offer me in pursuing my goal of working with children? While tech is a focus, I’m open to being flexible, as long as it’s an area I’m confident in.
Finally, if teaching isn’t possible for me, what other career paths would you suggest that align with my goals?
I’d really appreciate any support and engagement in this discussion.
This week @thibaultamartin received @kevinaboos, author of Robrix and contributor to many components of the Robius project. His secret agenda? Let you (re)write entire apps in Rust, of course
Writing a Matrix client entirely in Rust, that runs on iOS, Android, and the 3 major desktop OSes? That's what Kevin is doing.Robius:🌐 https://github.com/pr...
Not endorsing the #degoogle hashtag here just because a hell of a lot of spackle is needed for a comparable experience, but if you're interested in #cloud email servoces, this is one of the better ones in this space.
I have now configured my mail server to provide an MTA-STS policy for inbound message encryption. I already had DANE set up, but some providers only use MTA-STS. The only real difficulty I encountered was that my SMTP server needed to present the entire certificate chain to mail senders; otherwise, some of them (Google, at least) would fail to verify the certificate. #SMTP #MailServer
