That was my takeaway as well. I just wish I had data for the other seasons. It’d be interesting to see how that might change the percentages as they are.

As for GEOGIOU, I’m reasonably sure that this refers to both versions of her.

Honestly, it’s 'cause I forgot to include it! I’ll see if I can add it tonight. Check back in 24hrs :-)

That you cannot understand technology without understanding the people. And you cannot understand people without understanding politics. Every choice you made has an impact on the world.

As it happens, I had this very conversation with a high school kid yesterday who was in my office on work experience. She said something to the effect of “I’m not political” to which I looked her dead in the eye and said: “You should be. Everything is political”.

Thanks for sharing. It’s always good to see people advocating for Free licensing for the right reasons.

I like it, and I’d bet dollars to doughnuts that you’re talking about Discovery. I’ve said in the past that the show should be called “Star Trek: Michael Burnham” as it would at least be more honest.

To be fair, I think every series has a lot of episodes that would fail this test, some of which were excellent, like DS9’s “In the Pale Moonlight”, and “Far Beyond the Stars” or TNG’s “The Inner Light”, but if used to assess a series, I think this could be a good metric.

As someone who has used and loved Docker since 2015, but never used Podman, can you explain the difference and why I might want to make the switch?

Thanks for posting this! I have the same router.

Relevant.

Awesome. Perhaps now there will be some renewed focus on screen reader support?

Ah yeah, I remember a moment like that in DS9, where Sisko is lamenting the crew’s interest in a holosuite program set in the 50s because of how “our people” were treated back then. It always felt out of place for me, though DS9 is still my favourite Star Trek.

Can you give some examples of this? Admittedly I didn’t much care for Discovery and didn’t pay a lot of attention through it as a result, but I’m not picking up what you’re laying down ;-)

It’s a different kind of world. You need a different kind of software.

A lot of places don’t have buses and the roads aren’t safe for kids to cycle anymore. The assumption is that if you’re a parent, you just have to “make time” some-crazy-how.

You may want to promote this in /c/solarpunk.

Honestly, this is so much better than those cases when the codebase is an absolute fucking nightmare are the senior dev doesn’t see it. Instead they gaslight you into thinking that this is actually best practice.

Honestly, after having served on a Very Large Project with Mypy everywhere, I can categorically say that I hate it. Types are great, type checking is great, but applying it to a language designed without types in mind is a recipe for pain.

There was a talk on exactly this at a FOSDEM years ago, and the verdict was that licence chances were prohibitively difficult if the project was openly developed because you need to acquire permission to change the licence from every contributor. This is why some projects (React for example) require the signing of a contract in advance of any PR merge that transfers the ownership of the contribution to “the project”.

So, if Matrix is (a) developed openly, allowing contributions from anyone, and (b) doesn’t require the signing of a bullshit CLA, I think it’s fine.

Thanks! The crazy thing is that it’s really not that complicated. I’d say the hardest work was in writing the docs :-). It’s awesome to hear that people still use it and love it though.

Actually, I stepped away from the project 'cause I stopped using it altogether. I started the project to satisfy the British government with their ridiculous requirements for proof of my relationship with my wife so I could live here. Once I was settled though and didn’t need to be able to bring up flight itineraries from 5 years ago, it stopped being something I needed.

Well that, and lemme tell you, maintaining a popular Free software project is HARD. Everyone has an idea of where stuff should go, but most of the contributions come in piecemeal, so you’re left mostly acting as the one trying to wrangle different styles and architectures into something cohesive… while you’re also holding down a day job. It was stressful to say the least, and with a kid on the way, something had to give.

But every once in a while I consider installing paperless-ngx just to see how it’s come along, and how much has changed. I’m absolutely delighted that it’s been running and growing in my absence, and from the screenshots alone, I see that a lot of the ideas people had when I was helming made it in in the end.

Ha! I wrote it! Well the original anyway. It’s been forked a few times since I stepped away.

So yeah, I think it’s pretty cool 😆

42,396 installs… Holy shit.

Edit, from the article:

This “Exodus” application published in the Snap store was indeed a scam application. There is a genuine organisation that developed a real, seemingly ’legitimate’ cryptocurrency wallet application. This is not that.

Any chance that the FlatHub one is legit?
