Bloomberg uses a lot of C++ & contributes to the standard as well as various industry conferences and libraries. I’m looking for an experienced engineer to join a distributed systems team in New York working on our core Deployment Infrastructure for the Bloomberg Terminal 🗽 🧵

The past years have seen horrendous attacks towards trans people. We have a duty to protect the most vulnerable members of our communities. There is no Haskell without the trans people who have shaped it through the years. This June is a month of celebrations, but the struggle continues. ✊🏳️‍⚧️λ

Mozilla Suite dying: “goodbye XUL world”

As @littledan.dev points out to me, the standards to back this up are still in development and there is a push to water them down; we should resist that

For April Fools, I told the ETSI CYBER EUSR rapporteur group on web browsers that the European Commission was giving us until April 15th to submit our final draft. Got them good! Well, some requests for clarification but actually no laughs… (Real timeline: edit through May, then more review stages)

Ve a aquest esdeveniment gratis aquest dijous a CTTC a Castelldefels per a sentir-me xerrar del Cyber Resilience Act i els navegadors web. Ven a este evento gratis este jueves en CTTC en Castefa para escucharme charlar del Cyber Resilience Act y los navegadores web.

I spoke at FOSDEM about the new European web browser security standard, under development in ETSI, as part of the Cyber Resilience Act. Video here: mirror.as35701.net/video.fosdem...

At ETSI, we're developing a new European standard about web browser security to support the Cyber Resilience Act. Come read the draft at labs.etsi.org/rep/stan4cra...

The Cyber Resilience Act mandates that commercial software handle vulnerabilities well. What does that mean exactly? The CRA names sound principles in Annex I Part II, but applying them in practice is another thing.

My FOSDEM talk: The Cyber Resilience Act and web browsers The Cyber Resilience Act defines web browsers as an important product requiring special attention to cybersecurity requirements. What does this mean? How can you participate in defining in what it means for a web browser to be secure?

RESCHEDULED: Please join Daniel Thompson-Yvetot and me on Tuesday the 27th, at 1 PM Central European Time for an interactive deep dive into the draft standard for BROWSERS under the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA). www.stan4cra.eu/event-detail...

Rescheduled for Tuesday, the 27th at 1 PM. Hope to see you there!

This event is postponed. I'll post here again when it is rescheduled.

I’m getting involved in security standards for web browsers as part of my new role at CrabNebula! It’s important to ensure that the web’s security model is not compromised, as browser engines evolve, new browser derivatives become more popular, and brand new web engines emerge.

I have left work and standards for now to focus on my health. Thanks everyone for understanding.

I take a deep dive into Interop 2025; why the project is there, how it picks what browser features to focus on each year, how well it's doing and what the big areas for this year are - a mix of cleaning up existing features and making sure new features arrive already interoperable

It’s concerning me how overconfident people who want Pierre Poilievre to lose are sounding right now. It’s reminding me how sure people were that Trump would lose. Dont let Trump win in Canada. POLLS DON’T WIN ELECTIONS. TURNOUT DOES. Don’t assume. Vote. #CanadaStrong #ElbowsUp #VoteCarney

If there is a sale of Chrome, the buyer should be required to spend at least 25% of their revenue on the core browser engine and standards development. Browsers are enormously profitable, but a new owner might try to run things for the short term.

American friends: here are some resources on how to seek asylum in Spain as a trans person under the Trump admin. help.unhcr.org/spain/en/sol... Even if your application is denied, if by then you have a legal residency permit (work, studies...), you can stay. www.igualdad.gob.es/wp-content/u...

European Union Vulnerability Database (EUVD) by European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) is valid Option as compensation of the MITRE #CVD. We will see, if and how this will work to address the fashists way of disruption via #Project2025 I whish all the best for #EUVD ❤️ euvd.enisa.europa.eu

Everyone is going crazy trying to implement software supply chain security so that they aren’t deploying code with known vulnerabilities. But with the MITRE news, that might become helpfully scoped down: You can’t ship any new vulnerabilities if there are no more CVEs!

Crazy but not so surprising given the context. Computer security will suffer from continued degradation of the CVE system. Various EU laws mandate the creation of cybersecurity institutions that, in principle, should play a similar role. I hope that can work.

ECMAScript Excitement 🎉 Today, TC39 advanced these proposals: 2️⃣.7️⃣ Upsert 1️⃣ Composite Keys and withdrew Records & Tuples

Hyped for many ES proposals being discussed next week! - Enums 🙈 - Composites - Object.propertyCount This little Object.propertyCount() API improvement to count object keys is so much needed Can't believe we lived without this for so long

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

What I like about this plan is that it would preserve Ecma’s ECMAScript trademark while nullifying Oracle’s JavaScript one

Oh, no!

CSS might feel like it's moving fast to you, but i assure you, these things take forever there's so much Chrome process, public publishing, reviews, and more that go into a feature getting into your browser

My toxic belief is that instead of defining things like genocide, they should have focused on making it a crime against humanity to kill, say, 10,000 people. Inside or outside your country, men or women or children, you’ll be hauled in front of an international tribunal if you commit decakilomurder.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

the long term consequences of choosing marketing over ecosystem can't be undone

Bloomberg Backs Open Web Docs to Support High-Quality Web Platform Documentation for All www.bloomberg.com/company/stor...

When people talk about the need for a positive masculinity I think they’re missing that “masculinity” has no real content other than domination. What’s changed is that *human*virtues—integrity, honesty, leadership—were for a long time seen as men’s exclusive domain.

I don't think Democrats should surrender on "DEI" for the same reason I don't think we should surrender on "trans sports". The actual demand in both cases is that the affected caste of people disappear from public society, and that is not something we should (or can!!) deliver upon.

It’s wild that everyone who wants America to be “run as a business” seems to want lower taxes. That’s not what a business would do if it had a monopoly and the violence of the government behind it to set whatever price it wanted. A business would send taxes through the roof.

The AmsterdamJS Special Edition meetup with #TC39 members was yesterday at @jetbrains.com. It was incredibly interesting to hear about the history of the decorators proposal from @littledan.dev and the current state of MessageFormat from Ujjwal Sharma...

On my way to record a podcast with @wordman.dev at JetBrains’ Amsterdam office, where he will grill me about TC39.

During tonight's AmsterdamJS #Meetup Special Edition with #TC39 Members (1800 CET), I will share the history of the #JavaScript Decorators proposal, which is now in Stage 3 of Ecma TC39's standardization process www.meetup.com/amsterdamjs/...

Don’t miss tomorrow’s #AmsterdamJSMeetup 🚀 • @littledan.dev - A History of TC39's JavaScript Decorators proposal • Ujjwal Sharma - MessageFormat: The future of i18n on the web • @snek.dev, @littledan.dev, Ujjwal Sharma - TC39 Panel 💥 Register now: guild.host/events/amste... 📅 See you on March 12!
