TIL about the European Digital Resilience Index and to the surprise of absolutely no one #belgium sucks : 20th country in the index, no strong point. What is worse is that it's a downward tendency since 2010 and apparently our only redeeming quality is the existence of iMio and the fact that […]

Signal's president claimed it takes billions to replicate the availability and reliability of "hyperscalers" (AWS/Google/Microsoft/Cloudfare) that Signal uses. #chatmail and #deltachat are about disproving this claim by 1) making relays super cheap (DONE) 2) enabling chat profiles to use […]

It's becoming increasingly clear to me that Reflect Orbital's fucking stupid giant mirror satellite, with absolutely NOTHING useful to offer, which will cause countless safety issues, ecological disasters, and destroy the night sky, is going to launch. A bunch of astronomers and I have sent out […]

I really don't know how to evaluate the quality of my own writing. *Personally* the Futzing Fraction has gotten some of the most heartfelt feedback I've ever seen. Cory Doctorow cited it quite extensively. I had a friend from *elementary school* reach out to tell me it was my best work. But… […]

I realize that the less I use #gtk applications (because I switched to their webapps or CLI equivalent), the less I get the GTK language. How should something simple like "Copy the content of this textview to the clipboard" be conveyed to the user? On the web I know, I've seen dozens of […]

I scored 18/21 on https://e-mail.wtf and all I got was this lousy text to share on social media.

Tiens le #dns de @FDN ne résout pas google.com depuis hier soir que ce soit chez moi ou sur mon serveur (remarqué parce que j'ai un plugin kodi qui ping google pour vérifier qu'il a le réseau).

Et donc G. Darmanin dit que "le français appartient aux Français" et je ne comprend pas comment le prendre au sérieux alors qu'il ne sait même pas prononcer 97 correctement ou faire la différence à l'oral entre "j'irai" et "j'irais". Plus sérieusement, le français appartient à ses locuteurs […]

Some people in #iran successfully use delta with national email providers when outside Internet is cut. #deltachat designs are #offlinefirst using delay tolerant protocols. Messages are queued when a path is blocked. email servers are made for this and run at planetary scale. Messages crossing […]

What do you think are the primary challenges for Open Source the coming years? Security? CRA? Financing? Maintainer burnout? Recruiting young developers? Adapting to a country-former-ally going nuts? AI slop? AI bot overload? Something else? (I'd like some more food for thoughts for an […]

Me, being subtle.

Dario Asmodei predicts all code will be written by AI in a year. Dario Asmodei also predicts AI will double human lifespan in the next 5-10 years. Dario Asmodei's predictions need to be taken with a generous shaker of salt. Maybe he has been taking prediction lessons from Elon Musk.

I find this vulnerability hilarious « The GDPR Cookie Compliance – Cookie Banner, Cookie Consent, Cookie Notice – CCPA, DSGVO, RGPD plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting » Often, websites only use cookies necessary for normal operation and don’t require explicit […]

Many European governments are in the process of moving most of their INTERNAL communication to US controlled servers, in full view of the US intelligence apparatus. The political situation in the USA is however not going to get any less scary. Any (forced) migrations over summer might no longer […]

So, we know that X has been abusing its algorithms to push far-right content for years. The DSA procedure started in 2023, and now we’re seeing fascist content being amplified during the German elections… We have a fundamental problem in enforcing regulations […] [Original post on paperbay.org]

OK one more musing about human pre-history. We have many cave paintings from all around the world and they almost always show animals, the accuracy and beauty of these drawings of the fauna are such that we can tell the sex, age and exact species in many cases. There is a wall of animal […]
