If you wanna know if #Vulkan @vulkan is the right graphics api for hobby developers (tl;dr: yes), you might find an answer in my #Vulkanised 2026 talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EshkHyYxb3A

I was just reminded of the awesomeness of #castopod the self-hosted #podcasting platform that is connect to the #fediverse by #activitypub

This allows us to follow, comment etc etc from #mastodon or similar apps:)

And discovery is easy:).

And to get you started, for the techies out there, may I suggest

@overlappodcastThe Overlap

the latest episode is amazing!

"Guerrilla Infrastructure in the Age of the Electrostate"

Remember the "One Laptop Per Child" project, that developed a low-cost computer for children in developing countries? I was always amazed by a certain feature: The "View Source" button.

When you pressed it, the source code for the currently running application would open. This was supposed to encourage tinkering with the software on your device! <3

I've been pondering what it would take to build that button on modern machines. Has anyone seen something like that?

In the latest in a string of privacy abuses from the chatbot, Grok provided porn performer Siri Dahl's full legal name and birthdate to the public, information she'd protected until now.

ircv3 is a stark reminder that while internet chat, as any nuanced human endeavour, is definitely complicated, it is not that complicated and requires neither xml abominations nor json abominations to have it happen

i almost started to forget, huh

This is a really careful, even-handed, and well-written analysis - please read and share.

어린이를 알고 있다면 당연히 알겠지만, 어린이는 어른이 아닙니다. 몸은 말랑물렁하고 작고, 정신은 어른만큼 체계적이지 않으며 의존적입니다. 그리고 그게 당연할 시기입니다. 어른이 어떻게 어린이를 때린다는 선택지를 생각하는지 사고방식을 알 수 없을 만큼 어린이는 작고 말랑합니다. 어린이에게 폭력을 행사하면서 훈육이라고 할 때, 어린이는 무엇을 잘못했는지, 어떻게 해야 안 맞을지를 생각하고 있지 않습니다. 생각을 할 수 있는 상태가 아니며, 온전히 공포만 겪고 있습니다. 공포에 잠식당한 불안함은 결코 반성한 것이 아니며,

TIL that I am a "keener" (not in any way derogatory), and so are some of my closest family and best friends. Thinking back it explains so much, from my academic failures -- I was held back a year in high school, then skipped a year, then dropped out -- to my anguish watching overachievers talk about their achievements. I'm only very slowly coming to the realization that not everyone is a keener and that's actually okay? I guess?

I still feel sorry for people who aren't keeners, though. Sorry, can't turn that off.

"RAMageddon” is only getting worse, and there’s no immediate end in sight. Everything that has a computer inside depends on RAM, and almost everything has a computer in it now: farm tractors, hospital equipment, your TV set-top box. RAM is the short-term memory of a device, and AI especially needs lots to juggle all the data it’s processing." - The Verge

(pls boost )

please recommend me the best TUI (terminal user interface) applications that you know of, and especially what design principles to keep in mind when building one.
as framework i'll most likely be using rattatui, and skim for fuzzy search.

some of the ones with good design that i can think of right now are:
- rmpc
- btop
- neovim (duh)
- calcure
- ranger

Feels like I constantly complain about this but man do I hate 2026-era web development stacks!!!

I often find myself looking at a project website that's serving less than a dozen static documents to the end user... why am I looking at Vite and a build process at all???

It's like looking at a McDonald's franchise supply chain (warehouses, trucks, repeatability) and saying, "Yes, that is the appropriate setup for my home kitchen, just in case I one day need to scale it to a worldwide franchise."

I am a luddite and to me there is a lot of joy in technology. In technology that we deploy for all our wellbeing. Solar panels and vaccines, high-speed rail and wikipedia.

But they joy stems from the feeling of being able to be part of humanity in an embedded, meaningful way. Not from buying shit.

Remember when Steve Jobs died and Apple fans were so sad because the public image had become a cult of personality so they dressed up Tim Cook in a Steve Jobs costume

Why did that work what the fuck

@julian regarding #FEP7888 the as:context property is non-functional, so an array of contexts is allowed. do you accept that or do you throw an http 500 ;-) and do you know if others can hanlde an context array ? #activitypub #activitypubdev

apparently irc has spoiler tags now (e.g. /format this is a ||spoiler|| in halloy), something the (non-x) element still does not have

(yes i know technically you can do /html this is a <span data-mx-spoiler="reason">spoiler</span>, and i even memorized this to type it off the top of my head, but to the majority of people the feature might as well not exist)

In January, Anish, Jose, and I returned to MIT CSAIL to teach Missing Semester, a class on topics we've found missing from most CS programs—tools and techniques that everyone should know, like Bash, Git, CI/CD, and AI tools. Today, just like in previous years, we’re releasing the course for free online!

Some friends and I have been exploring alternatives to Discord and Slack since both services are heading in intolerable directions.

We've looked at obvious choices like Matrix and Zulip, less obvious ones like Signal and Delta Chat, and some weird ones like the chat system built into the Fossil version control system.

I hoped Delta Chat would add channels, but no luck. I kind of expected we'd end up defaulting to Matrix.

But IRCv3 (Ergo / Goguma / Irctoday) is in the lead. Surprising.

If the federal government can say "we don't believe in a certain medical treatment, so we're pulling funding from all hospitals that provide that treatment"

And nobody stops them

How long until they do it for vaccines?

Y'all think trans people are the only ones losing our care. We're not. We're just one of the earlier dominos to pave the road for the rest of y'all.
