🚄✈️ Why is it still so hard to choose a train over a plane?
On many long-distance routes in Europe, choosing the train can feel like a borderline heroic decision. It’s often more expensive, takes longer, and can be less reliable when connections are tight.
This week we spoke to cross-border rail advocate 
@jonJon Worth about what Europe would need to change to make rail the obvious choice, not a moral gesture.
Here’s his recipe. THREAD:

Pytest's parametrize decorator is awesome! Even better is to use your own functions to populate the data:

After the #BigTech countless #LLM galaxies formed. At the center of each sits a super-massive Black Box. Hidden inside lurks the mysterious #Singularity. Which is nothing more than a concept as we don't know what the heck is going on there. All our common sense breaks down, after we crossed the #CriticalThinking boundary. Coming close to the event horizon of any Black Box inevitably leads to #enshittifaction as a person is sucked into the void. An outside observer would see that person frozen in time, stagnant. As the #AI universe expands, continuous https://socialcooling.com will eventually lead to the Big ☠️ RIP of #Humanity, who invented the Laws of Online #Nature.

@stefanoStefano Marinelli per la versione FreeBSD 15.0 l'aggiornamento del sistema base non si fa più con "freebsd-update fetch install" ma direttamente con "pkg update" e poi "pkg upgrade"? Ho installato giusto oggi una FreeBSD 15.0 impostando il nuovo sistema di gestione dei pacchetti

Within the upcoming two weeks, Exquisite.chat will officially be launched. The first iteration will be an XMPP server - in a later phase more services will be added.

In my humble opinion, hosting instant messaging is something completely different than ActivityPub - due to the instant aspect of it.
With this, availability is a far more important aspect of it all. Hence the high available setup. Ofcourse, backups are just as important, but it shouldn't cause a full service outage in the unlikely event that one datacenter has a blackout.
You have given me your trust - and I want to do just by all of you. No matter whether you are messaging a family member about dinner or blowing the whistle about injustice.
At the moment in the upcoming two weeks when Exquisite.chat will be taking signups, I will be vocal about it. Thank you all - Exquisite has been such an awesome experience from the very start. And continues to be just that.

Android users: do you install apps from alternate app stores?
I last had an android as my main driver in 2013 and used to run a jail broken OS, but have no idea how common installing non play store apps is these days
What exactly do they teach at business schools these days?
Wanting to reduce a company's dependency on humans by replacing them with slop machines, which dramatically increases the company's dependency on a mere handful of other companies makes no sense, not even from a capitalist business perspective.
Unless ... of course ... you needed some fancy buzzwords to feed to eager investors. Ah, well, there we have the answer.

Fedify has just laid out a comprehensive implementation plan for this fep:
https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/issues/288#issuecomment-3971459585
The core idea is replacing HTTP(S) URIs with server-independent identifiers:
ap://URIs that use a Decentralized Identifier (DID) as the authority component, rather than a domain name. An object identified asap://did:key:z6Mk…/actorcan live on multiple servers simultaneously and survives any single server disappearing.
유행하는거 해봤어요 이게 어울리는거 같아서
the same people demanding you get back to the office to better collaborate in person as only humans can are the same people desperate to replace everyone with some code that runs on a server in ohio

The debate over de-platforming Zionists isn't about free speech but whether Zionism deserves a platform in a civilized learning community. Haviv Rettig Gur's talk at Haverford College, justifying the Gaza genocide, shows the answer is 'no.'

Dropping DUO like a hot potato. Who thought this was a good idea?
"are software engineers Real Engineers or not" is a pointless distraction. software engineers who don't know how to deal with guilt love to self-flagellate with it and other than that there's no basis in reality for that discourse. do something useful instead
