Si vuestro ayuntamiento está gobernado por la derecha y tenéis algún mobiliario urbano que necesita reparación, pintad una bandera palestina y veréis que pronto lo arreglan.
In 2016, after being a Mac guy for 23 years, I took the plunge and made a full-time switch to Linux. I did my research, and over and over again encountered the idea that GNOME was good for MacOS re…
In case anyone else needs to put a Windows ISO onto a USB stick and, for some strange reason, needs to do it from Linux, I figured out that I can't just dd the ISO to the USB device, or I end up with an image that my computer doesn't detect as being bootable. I found this tool that worked like a charm: github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB
I'm most pleased to report that at 12:17PM yesterday afternoon, Kim delivered our son Bertie. He came out with the right numbers of toes, fingers, ears (sadly he seems to have inherited mine) and so forth. It's suddenly astonishingly real, this child we've been trying for (and waiting for) for over 13 years.
Kim's labour was ... Intense. Bertie was a bit on the large side. Seeing her go through something so intensely physical was a real experience. Being at the business end of things during the delivery was an incredible thing also. I was lucky enough to help deliver the head and cutting the chord was special too. Kim did need a couple of stitches, but I don't think the pain relief for that was anywhere near the levels of joy from having her newborn son on her chest while they put those in.
But he's here, all 4.74 kg of him. the induction process started last Sunday, which meant that having the waters broken at about 10:00PM Friday night felt like an age. Building up through early labour was slow and very painful and, I suppose laborious is an appropriate word, but the delivery process itself, the whole "push" thing, was amazingly fast - the midwives were surprised that the head was there so quickly.
Kim's a little sore, but remarkably nowhere near as badly than when she was butchered having Lily, who weighed a good 2 pounds less.
The housework all got done in plenty of time. The mother-in-law has a week with us to be of some use and play with her new grandson. Our daughter is thrilled. even the dog is protective. It couldn't really have been a better end to the start of the next phase in our lives. So please boost a toot to little Bertie Randall. May his life be full of all of the joys the world has to offer.
Awww congratulations on your newborn son, I'm so happy for you man! Its crazy to think that in a few months, I will have a baby brother, that my mum will get to actually raise, as the last child she had back in 2012, was adopted as social services didn't give Mum a chance due to things that happened with me as a kid.
Oh Sean, this is brilliant news, I'm so thrilled for you both. Huge congrats from @brian_hartgen and myself, and hi to Kim and little Bertie! that's a terific name by the way!
Wednesday. As we hit a hundred hours of Bertie, it's overwhelming to think about how few of the hours I have spent asleep. No complaints, of course, and i'm so grateful for the hundreds of well-wishes from friends, colleagues and acquaintances that have come pouring in. A good number of those were here, so thank you, followers.
Apart from a small issue latching to feed, Bertie's postnatal weight loss is within the normal range and he's certainly doing plenty of lung and bowel work! It's surprisingly easy to just see the hours slip bye with a baby in your arms. Cuteness factor is totally off-the-scale.
It's been a whirlwind of well-wishers, midwives, health visitors, registrars and whatnot: the flood has yet to abate; we have more people to see and boxes to tick for the remainder of this week and well into next.
He's got a birth certificate now though, an NHS number, and we met one of his birth-mates today, a girl born the same day in the same hospital happened to be being registered at the same time. Looking forward to spotting little Alma in the future, and maybe we'll find out if they went for Rose as a middle name sometime. I quite like Alma Rose. She was about half his birth weight; but I'm sure she won't hold it against him!
We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/germany-c…
@fasnix @Tutanota i mean they should know that Germany de-signs that cause they are from Germany, yep? it's the only reason i pinged them (for them to know that country their in votes for law which is against them)
Přednáška na konferenci LinuxDays 2025 (https://www.linuxdays.cz/2025)Abstrakt:Jak jsem se (téměř) zbavil závislosti na softwarových korporátech a čím jsem j...
Viděl jsem právě tvou přednášku a díky za ní! Mám jeden dotaz. Máš spočítané provozní náklady toho domácího serveru? Předpokládám, že tolik služeb už bude přeci jen větší zátěž, která bude žrát více elektriky.
@smoon spočítané to nemám. Ale běží to prostě na obyč PC s víc RAM a víc diskama. Ale vím, že celkovou elektrickou spotřebou se v bytovém domě nijak výrazně nevymykáme.
World Clock displays the current time and weather for various cities. Thanks to a little help from Eric, its developer, the app is now RB, starting with v1.5.1 (which will go live with our next repo sync around 6 pm UTC) 😃
So with this, our current RB status is: 724 apps (56%) 🎉
I remain uncertain on the ethics of using generative AI, and I know I've posted some hard-line anti-genAI takes here and elsewhere. But if one is interested in locally runnable models, IBM Granite 4.0 is worth a look IMO. ibm.com/new/announcements/ibm-… It uses something other than the typical transformer architecture, allowing for much longer contexts with much less RAM usage. Also interested in what they mean by "ethically acquired" data. cc @simon
IBM Granite 4 models feature a new hybrid Mamba/transformer architecture that dramatically improves speed and efficiency without sacrificing performance.
I'm trying to find more details on their training data - the big question is always if they used Common Crawl or a similar collection of web scraped data - I can't see if they used that for Granite 4 or not
Dobrý to není 😬, aby nepropadl Tvůj hlas, musíš zažádat o volební průkaz a odjet hlasovat do jiného, lidnatějšího kraje 🤔.
Samozřejmě by to šlo řešit tím, že budeme mít republiku jako 1 volební okrsek, jak je tomu u voleb do Evropského parlamentu, ale má to svá úskalí a rizika...
Napadá mne, že by Pitomia a Bureše mohli volit v celé zemi a třeba by jim to přidalo voliče, co by k volbám přišli 😯, a to já vlastně nechci 🤷🏻♂️.
@ferda Má to cenu. Ty hlasy se přerozdělí v druhém skrutiniu a počítá se i celkový výsledek strany. Akorát v KV kraji ty menší strany nemají moc šanci na mandát.
Jeden volební okrsek je pitomost - v ČR by to nejspíš znamenalo, že většina poslanců bude z Prahy a Brna, zbylé kraje by měly nejspíš dost bídné nebo nulové zastoupení. Ve výsledku by to působilo v nezastoupených krajích nespokojenost.
@ferda Nicméně, Piráti jako jediní mají v plánu ten volební systém upravit, aby tolik neznevýhodňoval menší strany. Nikoli ale cestou jednoho volebního okrsku.
Letosni Volebni Kalkulacka byla masivni uspech Michala a Kateriny. Vytocili bez Seznamu vice nez s nim.
Zaroven je to muj technicky fail. Chybami v kodu nam uletel ucet na Vercelu. V souctu tesne pod $1000.
1. Server renderovani karet vysledku => request na server na kartu (tohle jsme fixli) 2. Napojeni AppSignalu server-side => posilal obri data a zablokoval cachovani. 3. Pruchod Kalkulackou pres server-router => dotaz na server, ze se zmenilo cislo otazky 2 -> 3.
Jak mám Next v něčem moc rád, tak tohle je fakt bolest – je pro mě hodně těžký na první pohled říct, kde co běží (a často se to může nějakou kravinou snadno změnit!) a jak to interaguje s keší.
@zoul Je to tak, jak rikaji borci z Vercelu: Next je infrastruktura definovana v kodu. Coz znamena, ze nad tou infrastrukturou musis premyslet, kdyz ten kod pises.
Hezky priklad jsou ty karticky. Mas stranku, kde je 50 karticek a data se berou z nejakeho fetche. - fetchnes v page a a vyrenderujes 50 karticek, kterym das ID - v kazde karticce si sahnes na ty BE data a vyrenderujes ji
=> vyrobis 51 requestu na server (page + 50x data pro kazdou karticku).
Cache je dalsi nas fail. Nejspis ten `plugin` napojeni AppSignalu uplne vypnul cache a udelal to full-dynamic (posilal headery do analytics). Takze vsecky ty zmeny otazka 2 -> otazka 3 bezely na serveru a fetchovala se tam data (proc to vyplo cachovani fetche nevim doted).
Mně se kdysi hrozně líbilo ve Swiftu, že API pro práci s řetězci nenabízí přístup do řetězce přes náhodné numerické indexy, protože je to v UTF-8 hrozně drahá operace a lidi by se velmi často střelili do nohy. Next je dokonalý příklad opaku – udělám nějaký zdánlivě triviální refaktoring nebo navrhnu zdánlivě idiomatické řešení a v překladu do infra se stane peklo. To podle mě vůbec není šťastné.
Babis-Partei schafft bei Parlamentswahl in Tschechien das Comeback
Die Partei ANO des Rechtspopulisten Babis hat die Parlamentswahl in Tschechien gewonnen. Der Milliardär spricht von einem historischen Erfolg. In vielen EU-Staaten dürften jetzt die Sorgen zunehmen.
@slesa Leider verlieren die Menschen viel zu schnell ihr Gedächtnis. Nach ein paar Jahren ist alles vergessen, und dieselben Leute kommen wieder an die Macht. Ich verstehe nicht, wie es den Menschen bei uns egal sein kann, dass Babiš strafrechtlich verfolgt wird und in einem Interessenkonflikt steht. Es ist klar, dass das Parlament ihn jetzt nicht mehr zur Strafverfolgung freigeben wird. @tagesschau
Stalwart mail server does not use the OS trusted CA roots because "there are platforms in which CA stores are not available" and "in MacOS using the native store adds huge delays to lookups"
So it's written in Rust but you gotta turn off certificate validation if you connect to services using a private CA
Which feature or improvement would you like to request? I'd like to see this feature: Ability to use an alternative ACME provider in the install prompt. Ability of use a custom made CA root for the...
@mWare I think I'm going to use this for my personal-self-hosted mailboxes because I'm having some weird bugs with Radicale for CardDav and I really really want some shared calendar support, invites, etc that are more advanced features that most CalDAV/CardDAV servers don't bother implementing. And the ability to have it be smart enough to auto-train spam on each user's Spam/Junk folders would be helpful. I had something half-baked to automate this for Aox/Rspamd but I hate how clunky it is
Email is just one of those things that we built all these individual pieces for and it would just be a lot better if they were more cohesively integrated.
I'll note that a few features that you will want require their Enterprise License (multi-tenancy, undelete mail, etc). You gotta pay per mailbox. How many are you hosting? They're charging like $2/yr per mailbox for the licensing. You can get a trial license from them too.
@mWare so I've been doing some light testing of it, and it's fast and capable. Still need to finish testing more features.
But I have one gripe. And it's the same as I've had with other software:
I don't understand why people are so obsessed with this RocksDB / LevelDB. It's terrible. I have been able to corrupt(?) my data 3 times now. Or at least I mean I got it into a state where the software wouldn't start, I get Segmentation Faults, and tracing the processing doesn't tell me anything useful other than it exploded while trying to read the database.
This has happened to me with other software that tries to store data in RocksDB.
So anyway, my current configuration that I may keep only stores the cache and Full Text Search in RocksDB, and the rest is all in Postgres. Their Postgres implementation is completely opaque because they just turn it into a giant BLOB store of key:values, so the data is binary and unreadable. You wouldn't be able to read anything by looking at Postgres yourself.
But it's still fast from what I can tell. And I never have to worry about Postgres getting into an inconsistent state.
well that's their fault for ignoring hardware errors 🤡
Also I already have pretty robust backups setup for Postgres so I can restore fairly easily as I have snapshots + WAL archiving, and I can move the process around between jails and VMs or physical machines and don't have to move data
This video about recent and ongoing evolution of Audacity (a popular open source audio editor) is a terrific case study—or several terrific case studies—about the challenges of developing software.
I was most interested in the Technical Debt (11:45) and Gradual Transformation (16:07) chapters, about how easy it is to tangle up your software architecture (even if you know better), how the tangle causes problems for you, and how much dedicated effort it takes to untangle. youtube.com/watch?v=QYM3TWf_G3…
This video digs into the research and design that went into gradually transforming Audacity 3 - a free and open source audio editor and production app - and ...
It wasn't updated since 2022, and the source repo was archived in 2023 – so it's unclear if it's still working at all (to download firmwares from Xiaomi).
EDIT: thanks for the feedback! As it's still working, we'll keep it for now.

The EU is once again trying to push a dangerous legislative proposal that undermines encrypted communication and obliterates our rights to private conversations. eff.org/deeplinks/2025/09/chat…
The European Union Council is once again debating its controversial message scanning proposal, aka “Chat Control,” that would lead to the scanning of private conversations of billions of people.

DHH's politics are not normal. Maybe they used to be, I don't know, but as of right now the dude is way outside of what most people would consider moral or acceptable.
