Voor iedereen met roots in Suriname: gefeliciteerd met 🇸🇷 50 jaar onafhankelijkheid. Fijn dat er dezer dagen zoveel mooie documentaires, boeken en artikelen over Suriname zijn!
Wan Switi Srefidensi! 50 jaar on*afhankelijk Suriname 🇸🇷
Vandaag vieren Surinamers wereldwijd het verzet, de trots en de kracht van Surinamers, toen en nu. Want Srefidensi is geen cadeau van onderdrukkers, maar een erfenis van strijd.
De strijd voor échte onafhankelijkheid gaat door.
25 november 2025 is een belangrijke dag voor Suriname en Nederland: het is precies 50 jaar geleden dat Suriname onafhankelijk werd. Mijn ouders komen uit Suriname, maar ik ben in Nederland geboren, waardoor ik mij met beide landen verbonden voel. Ik schreef er een blog over:

PromptArmor have a nasty description of a prompt injection attack against Google's new Antigravity AI IDE which can result in credentials (like AWS keys) being stolen by an attacker: https://www.promptarmor.com/resources/google-antigravity-exfiltrates-data

Are you a fan of beautiful icons? Do you have hoarder instincts? Do you miss CandyBar? If you answered yes to those three questions then I may have something for you soon 👀 👀 👀

I think I'm finally coming around to understanding what librarians actually do, and why people I occasionally see people arguing for hiring librarians at companies.
It's actually really simple: any formally organized group of people produces and consumes a lot of information. The job of a librarian is to organize and maintain that information.
What makes the job of librarians hard to understand is because if they do their job well, it becomes almost invisible. But the absence of what librarians do can be found because:
- information is hard to locate
- information is often out of date or conflicting
- information is outright missing
To me it's the other side of digital infrastructure, complementing what ops folks do.
hello mastodon
i am here now, woo
these are my cats, this is all i have to offer please accept

What I'm thinking of all day that keeps me grounded in happiness

@gayint 
@bsidesseattle I hope they commit to the anonymity bit by wearing a balaclava under an inflatable unicorn costume, so nobody knows the true identity of the hacker known as Gayint

What Is The Fediverse?
If you’re not familiar with the name “#Fediverse” – that’s okay. It is is an open society of web services that is already serving millions of people all around the world. They do this through a common language called #ActivityPub that lets news and events flow from one site to the next. So, instead of checking in to 5 or 6 different corporate sites, you can find, follow, like, and share across many, many sources – all from your own, singluar Fediverse profile.
