The Scent of a Photo

My smartphone just showed me a photo, taken exactly four years ago today. I published it on the Fediverse back then, showing nothing but enthusiasm for the great takeout food we had ordered.
The truth was different.

Ubiquitous, but not in a good way "A Ukrainian communications officer estimated 80% of Russian radio bridges they’d observed on the battlefield were made by Ubiquiti … Hunterbrook identified at least nine Russian military units accused of war crimes, or individuals associated with those units, that use Ubiquiti equipment in Ukraine"

Obviously impossible to completely stop re-export of widely available consumer products, but "Posing as a Russian military procurement officer, a reporter contacted Russian vendors and multiple official Ubiquiti distributors worldwide. Nearly a dozen agreed to sell export-banned equipment … Official distributors, including U.S.-based Multilink Solutions, agreed to ship to third countries like Turkey for pickup even after the customer identified as being based in Russia"

재판장이 교내 성폭력 사건을 문제 제기했다가 중부교육지원청으로부터 전보 처분을 당한 지혜복 교사의 손을 들어주는 주문을 읽자, 환호성이 터져 나왔습니다. 지씨가 교내 성폭력 문제 해결과 부당 전보 철회를 요구하며 투쟁을 시작한 지 약 740일만에 나온 판결입니다.

성추행 당한 제자 돕던 지혜복 교사, 복직 투쟁 740일 만에…“전보 취소”

“피고가 원고에게 한 전보 처분을 취소한다” 재판장이 교내 성폭력 사건을 문제 제기했다가 중부교육지원청으로부터 전보 처분을 당한 지혜복 교사의 손을 들어주는 주문을 읽자, 법정에는 환호성과 박수 소리가 터져 나왔다. 원고석에 있던 지씨는 재판부에 울먹이며 “감사합니다”

Rule of thumb: End-to-end encryption is meaningless unless you know and control exactly who the ends are. (Let’s call this the Waltz principle.)

Same goes unless the context your encrypted messenger is running in is secure. Signal can encrypt your messages all day long but you’re still screwed if the custom keyboard app you installed on your phone is sending them off to someone else before they even reach Signal. mas.to/@nemo/115977538504295603 mas.to/@nemo/115977538504295603

Ach guck mal, eine neue Konzernleitung die nicht als Erstes Personalabbau in der Basis der Belegschaft, sondern in der Führungsetage vorschlägt - I like:

Bahn-Chefin Evelyn Palla hat „eine deutliche Verschlankung der Konzernleitung“ angekündigt. Dies werde jährliche Einsparungen in Höhe von 500 Millionen Euro bringen

tagesspiegel.de/wirtschaft/mob

„Weil wir uns das einfach nicht mehr leisten können“: Bahn-Chefin kündigt massive Kürzungen in der Konzernleitung an

500 Millionen Euro will die Bahn durch Kürzungen sparen. Die Pünktlichkeit der Züge wird sich laut Palla kurzfristig allerdings nicht verbessern. Für 2026 kündigt sie ein „Superbaujahr“ an.

@alios die is die einzige Managerin bei der Bahn die selber nen Lokführerschein hat. Vorher war sie bei Trenitalia und ÖBB welche beide die letzten 15 Jahre sehr erfolgreich modernisiert wurden. Wahrscheinlich ist es die beste Konzernführung seit der Wiedervereinigung die da jetzt die Arbeit macht. Wenn die es nicht hinbekommen dann niemand.

If you’re a @phanpy fan using an iPhone or iPad, and you’re in the EU or Japan (where @altstore PAL is available), good news 👀

I’ve made a native iOS build that you can install right now through AltStore PAL! It's called... iPhanpy.

It’s still Phanpy at its core, just without the usual iOS PWA headaches. It feels smoother, stays longer in memory, and even comes with a neat Liquid Glass app icon.

If you have AltStore PAL installed, you can copy the link below and add it as a source inside AltStore:

raw.githubusercontent.com/matf

And if you don't have access to AltStore PAL, no worries: it's gonna be available on the App Store soon!

Good news 🙌 Following our campaign in September (donoharmbc.ca/national-standar), WorkSafeBC has announced that once the most up-to-date standard for respirators in the workplace (CSA Z94.4) is released, they’re going to review it for future updates to BC’s workplace regulations.

This means we’re one step closer to getting up-to-date best practices about workplace N95 use and airborne transmission into BC law!

Thank you to everyone who wrote in to WorkSafe and attended the public hearing. Your voices made an impact! If you want a refresher on what a CSA standard is and why this one’s important, find our explainer at donoharmbc.ca/national-standar 😷

An illustration of three masked workers. Text reads, "Tell WorkSafeBC to use the newest standard for N95s and other respirators. Campaign update! More info and talking points: DoNoHarmBC.ca”

Hello folk!

Some people seem to think that the "craft of ux" is dead: striving to be polished is naive. E.g. snapchat & Instagram stories, which are horrible UX, are claimed to be "good enough".

I'm writing a blog post exploring this but need links to any examples of this type of good enough thinking?

I'm expecting mostly techbro types will say this

EDIT: I shouldn't have called out Instagram so strongly. It's odd but not horrible.

(Doing something I've been adept at for years and love doing right)

Unsolicited "advice" from the sideline: "Why are you not using AI"

But *I'm* the smartass, sure mate 🙄

(This is not about the work situation, this happened a lot last year in private contexts. It's infuriating.)
