Nejsilnější polská opoziční strana Právo a spravedlnost má nového kandidáta na premiéra. Do voleb, které se budou konat na podzim příštího roku, ji povede bývalý ministr školství Przemyslaw Czarnek. Ten ve svém prvním projevu kritizoval současnou vládu i Evropskou unii.

지금 대통령이 담합 때려잡는것만 봐도 알 수 있듯, 결국은 정부가 움직여야 거대자본이나 기술과 맞설 수 있음. 규제라는 칼이 없이는 개인을 지킬 수 없다. 그렇기 때문에 민주정 하에서는 개별 시민의 의식이 중요하고, 이를 위해 문제를 알리고 서로를 지지하며 '결과적으로' 정부를 움직여야 한다고 생각한다.

I've been looking for a tracker to fidget with instead of other brainrot activities, and I think "LSDJ in a Gameboy emulator on my phone" might be the best free intro option I've found so far. I do not have the nav muscle memory necessary to be dangerous yet, but it does bleep bloop!

Gregory replied to the below article:

FEP-82f6: Actor statuses

Gregory @grishka@socialhub.activitypub.rocks

This proposal describes an ActivityPub extension to allow actors to publish a short status text, with optional expiration, link attachment, and history.

Some centralized communication services provide their users with the ability to set a status on their account, which is usually displayed on their profile and sometimes next to their name in other places in the UI. These are distinct from regular posts because they can not be interacted with in any way whatsoever, can't contain media attachments, and usually have a short character limit on the order of several hundred characters at most. Statuses are always visible to anyone who can see the actor itself.

So Amazon are now using Persona for ID checks too on buyers - my 18-year-old daughter has just lost a gift voucher because having let her add it to her account, they promptly cancelled an order she placed using the gift balance and are demanding she upload digital ID. Attempts to fix this over the phone have failed and long story short, the money she was given appears to be lost unless she's prepared to hand Persona her details.

A reminder why this is a bad idea: thelocalstack.eu/posts/linkedi

@Em0nM4stodonEm :official_verified: Missing: language and discussion about consent and its role in privacy and rights, digital or otherwise.

Privacy should be a default with any exception requiring affirmative consent. There should be no need to block cookies just as there should be no need to tell businesses not to peer into one's home windows *without consent*.

I find consent to be discussed too infrequently went it comes to rights -- we have the right to say no and exceptions should be extremely obvious.

Great article about the kinds of mental load involved, for women, in domestic labour.

Sadly, this is old news.

Twenty years ago I completed a PhD thesis that unpacked & examined these aspects of domestic life.

By interviewing parents & kids separately, asking the same open ended questions - ‘what gets done, who does what, is it fair, & how do you think it should be?’, which I ran through 3 times, first for domestic tasks, then for the work of identifying what needs to be done & making sure it happens, then for noticing how everyone is feeling & keeping every happy in the process - then taking the family as my unit of analysis, I showed that men & kids were unaware of much of the physical & almost all of the intangible work women did in their homes. Boys & men thought everything was fine. Girls did not want to assume, as adults, the domestic servant role they saw their mothers placed in but had no strategies to achieve this beyond ‘I’ll just tell them’.

There was a hierarchy of work in these families in which men’s work & leisure time had highest priority, then kids’ schooling & leisure, then domestic work of all kinds. Womens paid work & leisure was lowest priority of all.

The families that lived without conflict were those in which the hierarchy of work was not disputed. Where women sought to disrupt the hierarchy there was conflict - which became another part of the domestic load she was expected to manage.

My findings showed that contrary to popular narratives of ‘progress’, this dynamic was not likely to change until men as well as women recognise the dynamic & choose to shift it.

This argument was not popular.

Twenty years later, here we are.

I wish I had been wrong.

Backed by Gets Federal Approval
’s project in , which uses novel technology, is the first new commercial reactor to receive federal approval in decade.
TerraPower design, which it calls developed with GE Hitachi, has several novel features. Probably most notable of these is the use of liquid for cooling and heat transfer.
Plant won’t be done until 2030 at the earliest, and it still needs an operating license.

@michalfitaMichał Fita I’m sceptic about “more advanced stuff quickly”. My prime evidence: web frameworks. Everything I saw in Rust is barely at the level of the most primitive frameworks in Ruby/Python. Rails is being shat on for being a resource hog and stale and stagnant but it's literally decades ahead in terms of features and DX. Sure, your axum microservice can handle a billion requests a second but you spend 2 days building a mildly complex form while in Rails you can build a whole damn blog/cms in 15 minutes.

I’ve been looking for a 4-leaf clover my entire life. Actively looking whenever I’m in a garden… and never found one.

Until today.

In a countryside train station, before hopping on a train to Como with my family.

I told my child and she immediately found another. She was so proud: “It’s my first 4-leaf clover!” (I immortalized the moment with my phone - the photo shows her hand picking it).

I’ll be pressing them in a book later today. Such precious keepsakes 💚

In 2025, I found 3 popular apps leaking sensitive user data thanks to simple security bugs. In this *very* deep-dive for subscribers, this is how I use network analysis tools (like Burp) to understand how apps and websites work & share your data — and how you can, too!

I explain how to get started with Burp and similar browser tools, we'll explore API basics, how to understand network requests, and how to get started. I'll also include examples for you to follow along.

It’s been a few months of everybody telling me that LLMs became awesome in December and meanwhile it seems like my results always suck. I thought I was just really unlucky or bad at it, but I’ve recently run into several people showing me “awesome” results which, upon closer inspection, actually kind of suck. My new working hypothesis is that I either have higher standards or that I pay more attention

Hey our MMO has decay so anything you build will decay over real time and if you dont log in every month your stuff will all disappear

Me - well i shall simply take all my stuff i have carefully farmed and built, break it down to valuable parts and then store it all in the bank so i dont have to log in

Me returning to game much later, oh fuck what is all this stuff, oh fuck this is going to take so much work, wait do i want to play this even, i just gave myself homework to pack it back up
