Awh man, doge micro is down :(

@christianp amazing. do you think she knows?

@christianp I only mention because my cohort, 30-35yo all learned post BASIC, post/tail end Java.

The vast majority of people in tech between 20-35 all have python as their first language. Goto has never crossed my eyes in a work or education capacity!

Can't believe daft punk had to stop making music because they were Algerian terrorists

@domi it's not financial, it's the number of people with prefrontal areas that are suitable to run C++ once deployed to neuralink

I had a really hard time with the bluetooth speaker at the gym - connected fine, but no audio.
After reconnecting a few times, it started disconnecting itself after a few seconds (still no audio though).

Anyway, I hope whoever owns the bedroom speaker I was connecting to by accident likes Fontaines DC on max blast.

Were you at FOSS4G 2007, in Canada?
Do you recognise this woman?

She was found in Italy that November, likely having killed herself, but she has never been identified and it is likely anyone related to her still do not know what happened to her.

It's not clear that she visited FOSS4G or was involved in free software, but a map on her person highlighted the conference hall with the correct dates.

Interpol has a program specifically seeking to identify the unsolved deaths of women.

After identifying one British woman a few years ago, bringing closure to her family, it seems that a second woman may have been conclusively identified this week. There are still many more to go.

You can read more about the program and the cases here, but be aware of the difficult reading.

that's some '93 vintage O+ btw.

all the websites say that scabies mites are too small to see, but I suppose I have uncommonly good eyesight.

I managed to spear one on a needle and put it under the PCB inspection microscope before destroying it.

He pondered too much

Rare pic from inside the AWS Lambda datacentre

yo wtf

I hope you're all on the path to IPv6

@lanodan @nytpu if everyday you stub your toe on a step that's a bit too high, you can put up a sign saying "wonky step" or you can fix the stairs.

It's been a long time where we've put various signs, mitigations, linters, and we're still stumbling on a badly made step.

We need to fix/replace. Yes, it'll be hard work and a lot to do, but better now than in the future when there's even more that needs done.

@drewdevault fourquad

@nytpu you shouldn't need to take positive action to prevent your language system from punishing you for simple mistakes.

My car doesn't explode if I stall it.

The fact that this keeps happening is evidence in itself that the available "solutions" aren't effective

Question for boob enjoyers

@TheGibson for legitimate uses, Microsoft can expose an API to userspace covering just those uses, and users can control what applications can access it, rather than opening up the entire kernel to those who want to control user behaviours.

@TheGibson Personally, I'm welcoming the end of Microsoft giving shady vendors the ability to drop black box blobs into the kernel and denying users the ability to see what's happening.

Denuvo etc are all bad for users, and companies like Sony have proven they will take advantage of any toehold they receive for ostensibly legitimate reasons to absolute rinse their customers.
