Well, as long as the GNU-slash-IMP folks are mad at me, I should go for broke and irritate everyone. Someone's got to be debbie downer and I guess today it's me.

Does @gnome support the use of a slur for a project they're hosting? Because from where I sit, they appear to, and I feel like hosting this project might be a violation of their CoC.

fwiw GNU Imp isn't a GNOME project per se. It uses our infra, but it's not part of GNOME and doesn't follow GNOME's release processes or project governance. It's in the GNOME/ namespace on GitLab for historical reasons.

It was previously on the old GNOME CGit alongside many other third party apps, and for a time all apps that were there were put into the GNOME/ namespace. For a few years some newer third party apps got moved into that namespace, but nowadays we keep it to things that are official. Old projects remain due to the hassle of transferring namespaces.

I'm not fond of the name at all personally - I was the one who opened the rebranding issue years ago that lead to the Glimpse fork.

set your calendar reminders, folks — and remember that hype is a monetizable asset (in silicon valley)


Anthropic CEO: AI will be writing 90% of code in 3 to 6 months

"And then in 12 months, we may be in a world where AI is writing essentially all of the code," Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said.

Рибосома связывается с молекулой мРНК и последовательно считывает её нуклеотидные триплеты — кодоны, каждый из которых кодирует определённую аминокислоту. Специальные транспортные РНК (тРНК) приносят соответствующие аминокислоты к рибосоме, ориентируясь по антикодонам, комплементарным кодонам мРНК. Рибосома соединяет аминокислоты в растущую полипептидную цепь, пока не встретит стоп-кодон, завершающий синтез белка.

Have made my first ever experience with the package pickup stations of the Austrian post last weekend. They have been made accessible to the blind. The procedure is as follows: 1. You receive a physical notification about a package being dropped off at a station in your mailbox. 2. The notification has one of its corners cut off to make a tactile difference. This way you can tell where the code you need to scan is located. 3. You go to the pickup station. The tactile flooring inside will guide you to the stations. 4. You touch anywhere on the touch screen of the station. 5. You touch again, this time the area above a circle shape that can be touched on a strip below the screen itself. 6. The voice guide is activated and issues further instructions. 7. You place the code on your notification in front of the reader. 8. Assuming it has been scanned correctly, you proceed to signing the delivery confirmation on the touch screen. How you can do it without seeing the screen is still a mystery to me but I guess anything you draw is accepted by the system. 9. The locker opens and makes a ticking sound until you find it, remove your package and shut the door. I still find the way of opening it with a mobile app that some providers in other countries offer far easier but it's great those are ready for use even if you don't want or can't use a smartphone. #Accessibility #Blind

Whether you’re a Linux newbie or a veteran, this guide will have you laughing at the quirks of the Linux community.

(I may or may not be guilty of all of the mentioned traits)

Let‘s Encrypt describing their ACME profiles in detail:

‚classic‘: 90 days, all as before
‚tlsserver‘: 90 days, smaller certs, cut lean for its server role and modern clients
‚shortlived‘: ~6 days, otherwise like ‚tlsserver‘

If you have no idea what the mentioned TLS extensions are about, do *not* configure a profile. But if you do, use classic.

If you have a rough idea and serve modern clients, tlsserver cuts some bytes and the auth process is tighter.

Profiles

A profile is a collection of characteristics that describe both the validation process required to get a certificate, and the final contents of that certificate.

Traveling as a trans person is already hard enough. The Trump administration is making it even harder. As part of their campaign of hate, they’re deliberately misgendering trans people on their passports, insisting on what was assigned at birth rather than the truth they now live.

Look, gender markers on government identification are bullshit. Fun fact: gender markers were only added to passports in the 1970s. We could do without them, and in fact, we have! But if we’re gonna have them, by the Goddess, they shouldn’t be weaponized by willfully ignorant bigots.

The “proposed” changes are already in effect, since this government loves to decimate first and ask questions later. Nevertheless, they need to know that there are a ton of people who are absolutely not okay with this. Are you one such person? Stand up and be counted!

Hi guys, I started teaching a couple of people how to program/create games in NVGT. These classes have been going on for over 2 months, and I really enjoy teaching them! I decided to make it generally available for those interested. You get a 1 hour free assessment/trial lesson. After that, individual 1 hour lessons are $21.50 and 2 hour lessons are $37.50. I work full time, so unfortunately timeslots are somewhat limited for now, but they are available. In case you're wondering, my full-time job is AT instruction, and I've been doing it professionally for over 3.5 years. Depending on how this venture goes, I'm hoping I'll expand my subject offerings in the future. stevend.net/classes
