Politické okénko oslím můstkem spojené s včerejším MDŽ.
tl;dr: pro letošní komunálky v Brně máme boží kandidátku, kterou povedou tři zajímavé ženy, viz tiskovka: https://zelenebrno.cz/zeleni-postavi-do-cela-kandidatky-pro-brno-trojici-zen/
Celý příběh: měl jsem tu možnost spolupracovat na tvoření zeleného projektu pro Brno a teda, je to fuška. Piráti se rozhodli jít s Fakt Brno (aka Brno autem / ODS light), takže myšlenka na velkou liberálně-občanskou koalici umřela hned na startu. Co bylo dál? Hledání zajímavých osobností, které se bohužel protáhlo o dost víc, než jsme chtěli.
Ale nakonec to dobře dopadlo: máme super nové lidi, kteří zároveň můžou těžit z podpory zkušených zastupitelů. Jedničkou Natálie Vencovská, mladá designérka se zkušenostmi z Dánska (a nyní na JICu); dvojkou Jana Drápalová, dlouholetá uznávaná starostka Nového Lískovce, trojkou Kristýna Fuchsová, právnička, která pomohla rozplést korupční kauzy na Brně Střed. A skvělá je i čtyřka - Jirka "Jiřina" Malenovský, majitel Vegalité a šéf Brněnské asociace clubové hudby.
What about a nice Midnight Commander-style TUI to manage cells interactively? 🤔
I haven't been able to finish a proper, coloured drawing for a long time. Really, really long time. It's hard to pin down why. I have been drawing though - just nothing finished.
Maybe this one will work out? I like the sketch - for now, at least. And this is one of those drawings I have been planning to make for a long time. (The only problem is that the sketch is a bit too small. But I guess I can work around that by resizing and printing the scanned copy...)
Great video. Watch it!

@itsfossIt's FOSS say, that image smells badly of AI.
I wonder, did the artist prompt 'young looking girl warming hands by garbage fire, girl's thighs and ass in booty shorts exquisitely rendered (tasteful tho)', or is that just how AI draws women?

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 […]

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)
