checking the BBC homepage has been a curse since COVID days. not a single day goes by without bad news. it feels like the whole decade is jinxed. i'm actually exhausted. does any one else feel like this?
Oh, I'm sure the whole practice of randomly abducting or killing foreign heads of state without any legal basis or even much of an attempt at a justification will definitely not have any entirely predictable or dangerous repercussions down the road.

The Windows 95 user interface: a case study in usability engineering
If this isn't catnip to the average OSNews reader, I don't know what is.
Windows 95 is a comprehensive upgrade to the Windows 3.1 and Windows for Workgroups 3.11 products. Many changes have been made in almost every area of Windows, with the user interface being no exception. This paper discusses

That wouldn't work.
Mesh networks are short range low-capacity wireless. They'll work well enough in a large premises, especially if a good percentage have ethernet or fibre, to allow WiFi roaming on multiple airpoints with one name.
Iran also attempts to block satellite broadcast and Internet using a range of techniques.
The mass market use either Mobile or cabled internet (various technologies) all of which are government controlled, or can be in every country.
@raymaccarthyRay McCarthy I was thinking of something maybe Wi-Fi or Bluetooth enabled person to person even if phone to phone and that then would spill into the open social web when one of them hit a true open Internet….

検索エンジンに Ecosia 使っているけど、最近ヘッダーに表示されていたリンク。ウガンダの森がアカンサスばかりになって多様性がまじでなくなっているので、多様性を取り戻すための取り組みをしているという話。もっと多様な生態系だったけど開発のために木を切りまくって、代わりに植えたのがアカンサスで成長が早くて他の植物の成長を阻害するもんだから多様性がなくなったらしい。聞いたことある話すぎる。 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNQjGYqaN0w

What if I could convince you that taking the same time to explain detailed requirements and carefully validate results with a junior colleague instead of a chatbot would not only give you two people who understood the code instead of zero, but if you do it a few times in a row you eventually get a senior colleague out of the deal for free.

What's your current opinion on the touching of computers?
Do you still find joy in it?
I'm honestly quite frustrated with... gestures around and so I'm thinking of quitting.
I still really enjoy programming and I haven't lost excitement in it. I am lucky to be in a situation where I can avoid using or working with the output of LLM coding assistants professionally so I feel somewhat sheltered from the whole LLM craze. It does feel like a creeping supernatural force that is getting closer and closer, though. But yeah in my free time I have had so much fun writing hand-written Lisp code with Spritely's technology, and that has been a joy.
RE: https://solarpunk.moe/@vv/116144047825989190
are you working on anything cool right now?
I am pretty excited about a couple of high energy tracks that I've been working on, and I even have lyrics for one of them, so that's exciting! I'm going to work more on them today. I have also been coding a little tracker that runs in the browser and uses Lisp and that's been so much fun.

Who are your partner(s)? I tried figuring it out but I'm bad at following
@cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber is a partner who has a fedi/bsky presence. I have another partner who ~doesn't go to this school~ isn't active here, and, being a relationship anarchist, I also have some more loosely defined connections and am actively doing other dating!
"Anthropic is guilty not only of wildly exaggerating the capabilities of AI, and promoting dystopian fantasies of ‘AI doom’, but also quietly advocating the deeply misanthropic philosophy on which it was founded. ‘Claude’s constitution is an unfortunate development in AI governance that minimises human values, rules, and rights’, Jarovsky says.
But knowing what we know about Effective Altruism, perhaps that isn’t a defect, but the main feature of the product."

The 
@bsdcan fundraising is going well and tentatively will allow me to sleep this next few months. Thank you everyone who has contributed!
We're discussing optional items like travel grants and please keep it coming!
That said, 
@bsdtv and I made GREAT progress building out A/V packages and are down to a last camera and lenses to round out a third track worth of equipment. The streaming gear is in-hand and a fourth track/spare is not yet a priority.
If you want to help out, we are looking for around $3,000 USD and ask you to contribute through https://bsdfund.org
This is NOT a 501(c)(3) avenue but businesses can write off their contribution as marketing and your accountant can advise from there.
Thank you!

Debugging fail in #Python: I had a generator function:
def them():
for thing in some_things():
yield thing
But I wanted to quickly try changing it to use a helper that returned a list, so I just added that code at the top:
def them():
return them_from_somewhere_else()
for thing in some_things():
yield thing
Took me a while to figure out why `list(them())` was always an empty list.

Happy #Baturday, Fedi. 🖤 In these strange times… take a moment to bask in this floof. He’s the bat I rescued earlier this week that was saturated in some kind of mechanical oil and exposed two nights of freezing temperatures.
Nobody thought he would make it through the day. I won’t even post the “before” pictures because it was so very tragic. But here he is, four days later, enjoying a snack while modelling for #BatsInBlankets.
I call him Tiny Turner. And I tell him he’s “Simply the Bats”.
He’s not quite ready for release yet, but tonight some of my longest rehabs will finally be set free around sunset. Big feelings! 🖤🦇#BatsInMyBelfry
