In today's episode of "let's beat up on foreigners for no reason," The Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) announced that tourists will no longer be able to take the test inside Japan - only residents. No indication of exactly what problem this new rule is trying to solve.

Thoughts about the multi-network #Mitra setup #203
https://codeberg.org/silverpill/mitra/issues/203
An agent now builds a 200.000 lines of code C compiler from scratch that can compile the Linux kernel. In two weeks. I think at this point it's hard to argue against the tremendous productivity gains that this technology has created for my industry.

The Democrats should be demanding resignations from Noem and Miller and down through the ranks of DHS, CBP and ICE before they even consider negotiating systemic reforms. 4/
Yes, the list of negotiating points is tougher than it would have been without the absolute outrage from folks like us. And sure, it is hard for establishment figures like Jeffries and Schumer to propose the sort of sweeping personnel changes that are in fact a precondition of changing these agencies.
But with a lawless Executive branch and a Congress that has abdicated meaningful oversight, much stronger measures have to be what Democrats bargain for. 5/5
When Republican Fascists control the executive branch and therefore DHS, CBP, and ICE, even winning “common sense” reforms is an exercise in futility. 3/

This curated collection of global Fediverse events showcases the rapid expansion and technical diversification of the decentralized social web throughout 2026. Covering a wide range of activities from local meetups in Montreal and Berlin to large-scale international gatherings like DWeb Camp and FediDay, the schedule emphasizes core themes of digital sovereignty, protocol development, and public institution integration. Technical sessions delve into specific frameworks such as ATProto, Bonfire, and Hubzilla, while broader discussions address the evolution of W3C social web standards and the impact of regional regulations like the Digital Services Act. These gatherings facilitate critical knowledge sharing and collaboration for those building the next generation of open, interoperable communication infrastructures.

@paride5745Paride Dan davvero guarda… le famose giornate in cui va (quasi) tutto storto
Hello CoSocial.ca! Just joined this server. I've been on Mastodon since 2017, on different servers. I'm also currently at https://hcommons.social/deck/@chendricks (though I may migrate from there to here soon to transfer followers).
I'm in Vancouver, BC, where I work as a philosophy professor (on leave at the moment). See my bio for stuff I post/boost about and am interested in and passionate about. I also sometimes do #ds106 Daily Creates and (almost) daily photos over on Flickr and sometimes on Pixelfed.

A bunch of weird people: "nuh uh, science says otherwise!"
What do these tools think a "study" is and what do they think "science" is.
