An official announcement will come soon, but if you are using the #Lix package manager, it's recommended you upgrade NOW.

For more details, read https://lix.systems/blog/2025-06-24-lix-cves/.

This blog post will be updated with more information as we go (PRs in nixpkgs, etc.).

I've been in this developer education / devrel / developer experience etc etc space for a long time now and it still strikes me as utterly bizarre how frequently we talk about software engineering as though it isn't primarily a thing people do it as employees of companies in industry. It makes no sense to reason about any of this without talking about money.

(Sidebar: software engineers not seeing themselves as workers is imo partly also why so few organised while they had the leverage.)

New https://constraint.systems work from me:
Image Paint - an image brush where pixels are copied and pasted in the direction you click and drag. An attempt to make something that feels tactile like paint, but "goes with the grain" of being digital.

🐘 Sooo… I rebuilt my entire Mastodon instance 😅
Because I found out I could be identified at my root domain instead of my subdomain… and, well, once I knew that was possible, there was no going back 😇

💻 Tore it all down, spun it all back up — fresh instance, same vibes, better handle.
🔐 Everything’s still self-hosted, FOSS-powered, and privacy-conscious (of course).
💜 Will be refollowing the lovely folks who gave me such a warm welcome the first time.

Apologies for the false start! 😅

솔직히 한번쯤은 경험해보고 생각해보셨을거에요. 누군가 성희롱이나 추행, 혐오표현을 하지 않을까? 라는 생각. 하지만 비퀴어 시스젠더 남성은 그런 생각을 일절 하지 않죠. 약자와 강자라는 것이 이런 것입니다. 이거 진짜 안돼요.

I'm working on making it easier to make platform-specific changes to SwiftCrossUI's underlying backend views. I've taken inspiration from swiftui-introspect.

This sort of flexibility will be super useful for more advanced user interfaces.

I'm drafting an upcoming newsletter about inoculating yourself against the phrenology of programming: identifying it, basic red flags in claims about cognition and developer problem-solving, and unfortunately...papers about programmers that stray over the line

In a future of friendly and #sustainable digitization, we don't only need free/libre software, but also fairly produced and open hardware to operate the systems.

The German non-profit computer mouse manufacturer "Nager IT" needs human resources for a new future. If you can and want to support them, check out https://www.nager-it.de/maus/uebergabe#:~:text=Aktuell:%2024.06.25%20Schnuppertreffen (German only). There is a meeting in a few hours.

It would be great to keep the project alive and have more of the resources available under open licenses.

Finally got around to adding a #LinkBlog page with tags on my website: https://abhinavsarkar.net/linkblog. It comes with a central #feed, and tag-wise feeds as well.

#indieweb #linkblogging

This is a core system app interrupting you, promoting a sale by a movie-ticketing company, to push you to go see the platform vendor’s new movie.

Why not just pop up random ads all the time, always creating new channels that everyone’s opted-into by default so you can never keep up with opting out of them all?

Oh wait, that’s already what happens.

Apple’s as bad as everyone else. They don’t respect their customers — we’re fodder.

They truly have no standards anymore.

Every so often you see a letter in a local paper that just pisses you off so much - "climate is always changing" and "we have no idea about temperature" - that you feel forced to respond. And in this case, I was not alone. From the Islington Tribune, complete with both @ed_hawkins #WarmingStripes and a plot of temperature from Tamino's Open Mind. #climatechange (My letter, slightly shortened is in the Alt Text)

@tomTom Casavant @andypiper yes and no. important to distinguish here what politicians are saying and what theyre doing.

calls for digital autonomy are much louder now, and much more politicians are talking about it. however, trump being so aggressive in starting (trade) wars have made actual enforcement against big tech much less likely. much riskier now to enforce DSA and give meta a 1 billion dollar fine when theres a real risk that will result in even higher tariffs on the entire EU as retaliation

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10.0 Performing Well, Achieving Faster Results On AMD EPYC 9005 Series

It has been one month since Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 was officially announced and it's proving to be a nice upgrade for enterprise Linux use. Jiving with what I had seen out of RHEL 10 beta performance and general expectations considering the plethora of software upgrades from RHEL 9 to RHEL 10, the new Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10.0 releas…
