Jon Seager, VP of Engineering at Canonical and I had a discussion about using Rust in Ubuntu. 🦀 🎙️

Jon is super honest about the tradeoffs of the migration (we cover uutils and sudo-rs) as well as future projects. We also touch on the costs of legacy software in C.

Podcast here: corrode.dev/podcast/s05e05-can

Thanks @jnsgrukJon Seager!

tomorrow in is the prototype fund's demo day, some friends will be showing off Reflection, an offline-first p2p enabled text collaboration app. think google docs except it works without internet or centralized authorities, purely peer-to-peer!

the event is free (you just need to register for a ticket) and i heard they will have tons of snacks ...

A bunch of folks asked whether I'll be running a Black Friday sale for Hacktivate. I hadn't planned to, but I'll make it happen – it will be on sale for 36 hours or so, starting later today. The main app is a free download, so the one-time IAP unlock will be discounted 💸

I like to use my Ghost site as my main ActivityPub account but sharing my handle with public was a little hassle. I made a simple tool to create a public profile page for your Ghost Social Web (ActivityPub) accounts. You can use https://ghostverse.link to have a public preview of your social web handle with a guidance of how to follow you. Please share feedback, so I can improve it accordingly!

RE: social.edu.nl/@Bibliothecaris/

Over the moon that we (finally) did this!

🎉 We're the first department at the @universityofgroningen to adopt , and I hope others will follow.

Next step: Exploring how we can embed PeerTube videos into our university's CMS.

So I lost my job yesterday, which means I'm looking to ! I've been a Senior Software Dev for ~8 years, but I've been programming for more than 20 years.

I have lots of experience with C, C++, C#, Python, JS, x86 and other assembly. I've touched a lot of languages on several platforms. I have worked a bunch in simulation and robotics (ROS), open-source software, and 2D and 3D graphics.

Hoping to work with interesting people on interesting projects. Diversity and accessibility are very important to me. Remote work is preferred. I am in Canada.

Edit: Getting ahead of this now. No GenAI cultism please. No late-stage corpo ad-serving, data scraping, always online, crypto stuff either.

Thank you in advance, I love you!

저는 역시 다른 계절보다 겨울의 냄새가 가장 좋은 거 같아요.

지금 창문을 열고 숨을 깊게 들이 마시면 낙엽이 썩는 듯한 냄새와 난방으로 인한 연료의 연소 냄새가 섞인 듯한 오묘한 훈제 향이 매우 진하게 나거든요.

Voyager 1 Set To Reach One-Light-Day Distance In A Spaceflight First In 2026

NASA’s Voyager 1 is on track to reach a one-light-day distance from
Earth in 2026, marking a new record for the longest-running space mission.

#^Voyager 1 Set To Reach One-Light-Day Distance In A Spaceflight First In 2026

NASA’s Voyager 1 probe is preparing to cross an extraordinary threshold. By mid-November 2026, the veteran spacecraft is expected to become the first human-made object so far from Earth that a radio signal will take a full day to arrive.

Right now, Voyager 1 sits about 15.7 billion miles (25.3 billion km) from home. NASA says a message needs “around 23 hours, 32 minutes, and 35 seconds” to make the trip. Within a year, that gap will stretch to 24 hours as the spacecraft drifts to roughly 16.1 billion miles (25.9 billion km) from Earth.

Communications Slow To A Crawl


Reaching such an immense distance brings new challenges. Every instruction sent through NASA’s Deep Space Network will take a day to reach the probe and another day for a reply. That means even simple commands will unfold on a two-day cycle.

How Voyager Reached This Point


Voyager 1 has been travelling since 1977, launched during a rare alignment of the outer planets that only happens once every 176 years. Together with Voyager 2, it carries a computer with about three million times less memory than a modern smartphone, which is a detail NASA often highlights to show how remarkable their longevity is.

During its early journey, Voyager 1 flew past Jupiter and Saturn, capturing the famous “pale blue dot” image at Carl Sagan’s suggestion. Its path then carried it out of the Sun’s influence. Voyager 1 crossed into interstellar space in 2012, followed by Voyager 2 in 2018. They remain the only spacecraft to have travelled beyond the heliosphere.

Powering On After Nearly Five Decades


NASA expects Voyager 1’s nuclear power source to last for roughly another year. Even so, it continues to hold its title as the most distant spacecraft ever launched. Voyager 2 trails behind, sitting about 19.5 light-hours from Earth but still ranking as the second-most distant human-made object.

And then how that archipelago then intersects with south India and Yemen.. is even more interesting to me. I enjoyed learning that nasi mandi is basically the Yemeni dish.. mandi. I’ve spent the early parts of my life obsessively learning about all of those places and their foods and migration stories.

If there’s one book I can recommend, it’s ’The food of the Singapore Malays’. It’s a giant tome. You can injure yourself if you drop it. What a work of art.

Lately, there’s been some important work done by some folks there to celebrate the Indigenous foods of the Malay world.

Here’s a wonderful page on the food of the orang laut (the sea people): oranglaut.sg/our-food/

And here’s a page about the food culture of the Dayaks of West Kalimantan: slowfood.com/blog-and-news/the
