You buy a new iPhone and your wallet cries. You wake up in your bed and believe that you have to buy a new phone every year. Or, you take the repair pill and you stay on iFixit.com and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.
Microsoft just became the second company valued at over $4 trillion. How did they do that?
They fired over 15K developers and IT workers this year, saying cost cutting was needed. They also spent over $18 billion on stock buybacks, and the board approved $60 billion in buyback options. They poured $100 billion into AI.
Google claims the AI Overview on every search result — a frequently-wrong summary of other people’s work — sends a ton of clicks back to the original publishers they ripped off. This is false. Pew …

In what should have been called "falsehoods programmers believe about TV program (or should I say programme?) metadata."
Incredibly interesting stuff, if you're into that sort of thing.
Most programmers should be required to design an architecture for a system like this at some point, and then shown this post to realize how many incorrect assumptions they made.
This is a post I've been meaning to write for the last 7 years. In the circumstances it might be more of a eulogy than a birth announcement but since the sub...

Is it possible to prevent the contents of the blog from being automatically translated into another language? Could you just provide a translation link for people who need it?
I live in Taiwan, and the automatic translation is really poor and annoying.
Since a few years you can use DAVx⁵ to access your remote/cloud files via WebDAV. Do you already use this feature? (Manual: manual.davx5.com/webdav_mounts…)
I have seen the instructions before, I'll try following them again (eg somehow total commander didn't work for me even with the webdav extension installed)
thank you! I was expecting it to be automatically listed along google drive etc. I found it under "[plus sign] user-defined location" and then pull from the left

I'm convinced a lot of people have not yet figured out that curl has supported parallel downloads for six years already by now. Provided a practically unlimited number of URLs, curl can be asked to get them in a parallel fashion.

TIP: Je nutné, aby kolo mělo stojánek? Na co si u stojánku dát pozor
Máte na kole stojánek? Tedy nejspíše takovou tu „věc“ na (často) levé straně zadního kola, kterou můžete sklopit a opřít o ni kolo? Pak možná jenom čas od času řešíte to, že je potřeba to utahovat, protože se tomu uvolňují šrouby a přemýšlíte, proč to tam vlastně máte.

stojánek mám jen na kolech u dětí, protože bez něj to kolo vždycky odhodily, nejlépe na stranu, kde je přehazovačka. Na žádném svém kole ho nemám, považuji ho za zbytečný.

Hamilton's cybersecurity insurer isn't paying out, because Hamilton didn't satisfy the basic security requirements in the policy they purchased. $18.3M and counting. Ouch!
Devin’s headlamp cut through the darkness. At the base of the pine trees lining the narrow green strip beside Notre Dame East Boulevard, he was bent, writing on the white backside of a plastic sheet.
Using #GNOME Builder again after Zed added mecha-hitler integration, currently rebuilding my website, and finding Builder very pleasant to use after customizing some stuff, and ofc adding #Vim keybinds in. Honestly nice having a GUI to configure stuff, and it being native to my GNOME system!

🇺🇸 It's been exactly one year since we went live with our Reproducible Builds publicly. Almost exactly at their first anniversary, we passed the mark of 50% apps covered by them.
But more has happened since: we've improved on the RBs, published the framework. You've asked for Download Statistics? Today we make those public. And more – plus more to come. As usual, we announce what it's ready – no fabulous promises, just facts. So read the full update here:
Half a year has passed since our last blog post. You might be curious what we achieved since then – and we have not been idle! Be prepared for more reproducible builds, download statistics, and other nice things 😃
🇩🇪 Es ist genau ein Jahr her, seit unsere reproduzierbaren Builds öffentlich live gingen. Fast genau zum ersten Jahrestag konnten wir mehr als 50% unserer Apps bestätigen.
Doch es ist noch mehr passiert: Wir haben die RBs verbessert und das Framework veröffentlicht. Ihr fragt nach Download-Statistiken? Die gehen heute live. Und mehr. Und mehr wird kommen. Wie immer sagen wir nur, was fertig ist – keine (leeren) Versprechungen. Hier das vollständige Update:
Ein halbes Jahr ist seit unserem letzten Blog-Post vergangen. Ihr fragt Euch vielleicht, was hier seitdem geschehen ist – und wir haben nicht auf der „faulen Haut“ gelegen! Freut Euch über mehr Reproducible Builds, Download-Statistiken und weitere sc…
And as our Download Stats only give numbers for, uh, Downloads, here's a sneak peek at our web server stats overall load 😉 Stats for today are not yet in, hence the drop at the end (snapshot is from around half past midnight this morning). @SylvieLorxu

Waitress: any decisions on dessert? Me: how big is the tiramisu (Waitress gestures with her hands about six inch square) Me: oh! That's too much. I can't possib- Waitress: No. It's not too much. There's no such thing as too much tiramisu.
Reader: it was too much. But definitely a light-hearted moment that made my day.
Tohle auto je Pepovo*. Pepovi nebylo příliš naděleno do hlavy, proto klidně nechá auto tam, kde mu od pazoury odpadne. Že auto překáží nebo že je to v rozporu se zákonem, Pepu netrápí. Nebuď jako Pepa.
*Pojmenování "Pepa" je zástupné, skutečné jméno řidiče neznám.
já zas kvůli nějakýmu Pepovi na chodníku musel s kočárem po silnici. Už mě nebaví ta bezohlednost už. Fakt by ty cajti měli někdy vytáhnut paty a projít se po sídlišti.
@stepan "Nejlepší" jsou takoví, co na příčné parkování určené pro běžná auta postaví dlouhou dodávku. Na chodníku se chodec s bídou protáhne (kočárek ani vozík neprojede), zatímco druhý konec dodávky vyčnívá do jízdního pruhu. Ale jinak samozřejmě vytváření nových parkovacích míst přímo na chodníku je taky lahůdka.
