The Window Chrome of Our Discontent
In a WWDC 2011 session, Dan Schimpf explained some of the goals of the refreshed design for Aqua in Mac OS X Lion were “meant to focus the user attention on the active window content”. This sentiment was echoed by John Siracusa in his review of Lion for Ars Technica: Apple says that its goal […]

The report was false, Windows being a steaming pile of s__t was, in fact, true.

New, by me: How AI Assistants are Moving the Security Goalposts
AI-based assistants or “agents” — autonomous programs that have access to the user’s computer, files, online services and can automate virtually any task — are growing in popularity with developers and IT workers. But as so many eyebrow-raising headlines over the past few weeks have shown, these powerful and assertive new tools are rapidly shifting the security priorities for organizations, while blurring the lines between data and code, trusted co-worker and insider threat, ninja hacker and novice code jockey.

My reward for reading That Blog Article and thinking, you know what? man pages _are_ cool; i will install the man page:
; man -M man vi
zcat: can't stat: man/man1/vi.1 (man/man1/vi.1.gz): No such file or directory

(the particular implementation of the online manual was, in my opinion, the start of the fall of Unix. The idea that man pages needed to be pre-compiled, compressed, DLC, or built with only proprietary tools is Just Not Unix. Case in point: Weird that the early man program doesn’t just take a file arg and nroff it to show me)

LLMs for coding (thread)
Our current software crisis—we've had a few—has been ramping up IMO since the post-2007 bailouts. Instead of regulating finance, the US let the finance industry take over, which hasn't been great overall, but for software it's meant that "quality" stopped mattering
Well-funded startups capture market share with subsidised products.
Big tech is a cluster of oligopolies and monopolies.
Internal software projects are driven by their potential effects on stock prices
Redox OS has added a Certificate of Origin policy and a strict no-LLM policy to our CONTRIBUTING.md: https://gitlab.redox-os.org/redox-os/redox/-/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
Reflecting on all the times in my career as a software engineer I have been told that, yes, things were a bit unfair to me as a woman, but that I was being a trailblazer, I was the one discovering and establishing the path that would enable others to follow.
But you go back to the 70s and you see the same number of women programmers, being fed that exact same line
And in the 80s
and the 90s
and so on to today. The "trailblazer" narrative is a lie told by managers to make themselves feel better

Now this is what computers are actually for!
야마다 나오코 감독 '리즈와 파랑새'와 '너의 색' 이야기가 눈에 띄었는데, 백합작품에서는 여성간에 돌봄(ケア) 문제가 비중있게 다뤄지는데 '너의 색'은 거기에 남성 캐릭터가 들어가도 돌봄에 대한 이야기가 성립할 수 있다는 걸 보여줬다고? 어떤 작품인지 궁금해졌다.
여자아이에게 가해지는 사회적 억압을 잘 이해하면서도 거기에 고통받는 모습을 매력적으로 그려내는 페미니즘과 페티시즘의 공존...? 야마다 감독 작품들 어떤지 한번 봐야겠다.

NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”
“When you create a law, you have to think about what a future government could do with those powers."
Ministers would have unilateral powers to lock what they see as 'harmful' behind digital ID checks.
This could end up being used on LGBTQ+ and reproductive health content.

Ghostty 1.3 also discloses a CVE that impacts every prior Ghostty release. For that reason alone (amongst the many other benefits), I highly recommend upgrading. We didn't change any system requirements for 1.3, so everyone on 1.2.x can upgrade. https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/security/advisories/GHSA-4jxv-xgrp-5m3r
i’m so confused at why you are disagreeing do you believe that my statement of the law is incorrect?
FYI, this rumor was false.
