After careful analysis, we believe the best option for remediation is to turn off the computers and go for a nice walk. Maybe call your mother.

Europe is the world’s fastest-warming continent. We’ve seen record heatwaves from the Mediterranean to the Arctic, while glaciers have been shrinking and snow cover melting. The evidence is unequivocal: climate change is not a ‘future’ threat. It is our present reality. ⬇️

I don't think tech at large understands how hard it is to be an open source maintainer right now. So many great folks are on the brink of burnout. Funding is drying out. We live in a security minefield. Companies think humans are disposable. If you're a maintainer, we care. You deserve the world.

#Kansalaisaloite
korjauspalveluiden arvonlisäveron alentamiseksi! Tällä hetkellä aloitetta on kannattanut vasta 16 859 henkilöä. Aloite etenee eduskunnan käsiteltäväksi vain, jos se kerää vähintään 50 000 nimeä ennen määräajan sulkeutumista eli maaliskuun 2026 alkua.

Kansalaisaloite korjauspalveluiden alemmasta arvonlisäverokannasta avattiin syksyllä 2025. Alennettu arvonlisävero kohdistuisi aloitteen mukaan suutareihin, kodinkoneiden korjauksiin, jne.

Immutable releases announced at GitHub Universe! Once tagged, releases can’t be changed. No more worrying about malicious actors swapping out assets or moving tags. Single-use version tags with signed attestations. This is the supply chain protection open source really needs 🔒

Meaning that infrastructure like AWS is not something that Signal, or almost anyone else, could afford to just “spin up.” Which is why nearly everyone that manages a real-time service–from Signal, to X, to Palantir, to Mastodon–rely at least in part on services provisioned by these companies. 8/

Dear all After a bit over 3 years my contract with Tarides has come to an end. It has been great - working with and being team lead for an exceptional group of software engineers and - applying my property-based testing skills to stress test and help get the multicore OCaml5 runtime+stdlib in shape.
