Loops has recently increased the duration limit from 60 seconds to 3 minutes.
Looking at loops.video data, the average duration of a video from the past 2 weeks is 57 seconds!
The average duration of all videos is 30 seconds.

Who coined "Metroidvania"? It wasn't
Jeremy Parish, and he'll be the first to tell you. Besides, there are far more interesting questions, like: How did it spread? Evolve? And what's it got to do with rickrolling?

メモリ交換してからパソコンがずっと不調なのが全然解決しない。
PC起動したてはちゃんとスリープするのに、1日作業を終えてスリープするとどうしても正常にスリープしない。
OSはスリープに移行するのにファンが止まらず、ハードの電源が落ちない。こうなると強制終了しかない。

I worry about this every so often¹. On the one hand, I could probably get another job within the university (we're big on stealing each other's senior technical people). On the other hand, it's probably completely hopeless to apply for jobs outside the university, since I have (eg) basically no cloud/k8s/etc experience. If in-university jobs dry up or are unappealing, I'm up the creek.
(I'm not looking, I hope to spend the rest of my career at my current position.)

Soooo... #JustBetweenUs There's already some big stuff in the works for 2026:
The Social Web Foundation (@swf) has kicked off a project to bring real end-to-end encryption to the Fediverse. It's a big undertaking, with real financial backing from the 
@sovtechfundSovereign Tech Agency
Check out the announcement: https://socialwebfoundation.org/2025/12/19/implementing-encrypted-messaging-over-activitypub/
And, I'm very excited that #Emissary is one of the projects selected to participate in the work alongside the 
@bonfire team.

What will this mean? We're working with extensions to ActivityPub to bring top-tier encryption into the Fediverse - the same industry standard that powers Android, Apple, Discord, and others.
We're aiming to release our first versions mid-year.
#Bonfire and #Emissary are great choices because each is a sort of "application builder" that can be molded to fit many different situations. It's going to be a massive undertaking, but I'm looking forward to the results

RE: https://socialwebfoundation.org/2025/12/19/implementing-encrypted-messaging-over-activitypub/
Big news for the #Fediverse! End-to-end encryption is coming to #ActivityPub.
@swf with support from @sovtechfundSovereign Tech Agency is coordinating two interoperable implementations.
Bonfire is proud to be one of these first two projects, alongside #Emissary by 
@benpateBen Pate 🤘🏻
We think #E2EE should simply be the default for any private communications, and we’re especially thrilled to bring private, trusted collaboration to the fediverse.

[Threads：フェディバース推進を断念(Fediverse Report)]
※ザックり要約※
Threads責任者コナー・ヘイズ氏は「フェディバース統合はメンテナンスモードにある。引き続き、我々がサポートし、機能は維持するが、今後、新たな開発は行わない」と公言した(注1)
理由として利用者が少なすぎることがあげられる
mastodon.social で確認したところThreadsでフェディバースを有効にしているユーザーは25,000人程度と見積もられている
Threadsには4億人のユーザーがいると言われるが、利用者が圧倒的に少なく、そうなるのもやむを得ない

Even if age verification laws require data deletion, you have to trust every website and third-party verifier will actually do it. That's a lot of faith to place in companies with spotty track records—and a risk that doesn't exist in-person when a bartender just glances at your ID. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/12/why-isnt-online-age-verification-just-showing-your-id-person
A citizen e-petition has been launched in the House of Commons calling on the Federal Government to its disallowance power to override Alberta and Saskatchewan’s use of the notwithstanding clause to violate the human rights of trans Canadians.
うぐー！
One of the crappiest trends I’m seeing in my mentorship sessions today is people getting laid off from large corporations after 20-40 years of silo right now. It’s really appalling if not unexpected.
If you’ve been somewhere over 5, 10, 20 years it’s worth looking at your employability elsewhere.
Hey #Canadians: we support each other, we stand up for each other, and we show up for each other. Here is how we do that right now, today:
https://www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Petition/Details?Petition=e-7027
Even if you only read the petition, learning about what the Saskatchewan and Alberta provincial governments are attempting is a step in the right direction. Signing the petition is a step. It is going to be a long journey, but this is not one we can sit out.
AWS CEO, "AI로 주니어 개발자를 대체하는 것은 ‘가장 어리석은 생각 중 하나’"
------------------------------
- AWS CEO Matt Garman 은 기업이 AI로 주니어 개발자를 대체하려는 움직임에 반대하며, 이들이 *AI 도구 활용에 가장 능숙한 인력층* 이라고 강조
- 첫 번째 이유로, 젊은 개발자들은 *AI 기반 툴에 익숙하고 적응이 빠르며* , 실제로 많은 주니어 개발자가 매일 AI를 활용하고 있음
- 두 번째로, 주니어 인력은…
