RE: mastodon.scot/@andrewducker/11

If the day ever comes that general-purpose computing devices can no longer run unsigned/unapproved code, we will suddenly appreciate that for over fifty years, people could write and run code for free-as-in-speech as well as free-as-in-beer. Microcomputers were both kinds of revolution in computing freedom.

My younger friends:

Do not take the right to compute for granted. it is at least as important as the right to freedom-as-in-speech.

A lot of messaging systems try to reinvent the email system but many (signal, matrix, xmpp) took over one key traditional design which we actually dropped while retaining SMTP/IMAP compatibility: server-controlled identities.

With user identities are cryptographic and reside on end user devices only. Servers are only message relays and have no control over identities or chats, only perform fast message routing. See this fosdem talk by one of our lead developers mirror.cyberbits.eu/fosdem/202

Someone at reached out to me about a organization that takes care of the logistics of hosting conferences? I.e. venue, ticketing and catering. And it was free for open source projects.

I remember Munich, London and Paris(?) as possible locations?

Sounded great. Forgot their name. Does anyone know?

Boost appreciated!

[단독] 한강버스 '결빙 안전관리계획 문서', 한강 결빙 이후 8일 지나 만들었다 omn.kr/2gxju "보다 심각한 문제는 '결빙 안전관리계획'이 지난 1월 20일에 문건으로 만들어졌다는 점이다. 한강 얼음에 대한 한강버스 안정성 문제를 제기하는 언론 보도(녹색경제신문)가 1월 10일에 있었고, 결빙에 따른 한강버스 결항이 1월 12일에 이뤄진 점을 감안하면 한강에 얼음이 얼고 난 뒤에야 결빙 안전관리계획을 공식 수립한 셈이다."

I'm thrilled to announce I just released Command Book App: A native macOS app for developers, data scientists, AI enthusiasts and more. commandbookapp.com

This is a tool I've been using lately to help build Talk Python, Talk Python Training, and many more applications.

It's a bit like advanced terminal commands or complex shell aliases, but hosted outside of your terminal. This leaves the terminal there for interactive commands, exploration, short actions. (1/2)

Command Book manages commands like "tail this log while I'm developing the app", "Run the dev web server with true auto-reload", and even "Run MongoDB in Docker with exactly the settings I need"

I'd love it if you gave it a look, shared it with your team, and send me feedback (either as a comment here or via the email us in the nav bar).

Check it out at commandbookapp.com (2/2)

Well put: “To conclude this wrapup of my experience in 2025: more than ever, I still regard the open web as my online home. There are communities I feel like I belong to within it — like the 'open social' community, the Mastodon community, the Eleventy community, etc. Maybe there will eventually be a Cybercultural community!

What if you could save data to your earrings?
I've been working on this MicroSD jewelry concept for a year+, and (as with the recent LED one), am SO EXCITED to finally pull together some semi-polished prototypes!!

This year, I intend to finally start selling my functional circuit board jewelry – including custom/branded options for these.

Site coming soon at charmware.tech 👀

Info importante et intéressante

Je reviens de chez mon medecin généraliste qui m a appris qu il y avait eu un changement récent sur la prise en charge des dépistages pour les ist (infections sexuellement transmissibles) :

On peut maintenant aller directement au laboratoire sans ordonnance du medecin generaliste, demander un dépistage et que cela soit pris en charge.

Les repouet aident a la mise a jour de tout ce qui releve de la prévention/prophylaxie
