This evening has had a sad surprise for me.

Now, I am calling for #openSUSE to revert the recently imposed project-wide ban on young people:

The people of @a11yclub have just decided that the upcoming WCAG versions will be named after dinosaurs. Say hi to WCAG 3 Triceratops! #a11y #accessibility JK 😁

@glyph Yeah. I have a gut feeling that we as an industry are barreling towards a maintenance crisis that we are going to have to reckon with, on account of LLMs’ tendencies towards unnecessary complexity and huge volumes of code. Like, there are a number of different possible futures where LLMs cannot realistically be used to maintain the code that they wrote, and if any of those futures come to pass, unfucking the mess is going to be an enormous undertaking.

Hey I’m the developer of the Bazaar App Store! I absolutely love making Bazaar, it brings me a lot of joy. :)

Unfortunately I’m in a bad financial situation right now and my only source of income is from donations. I absolutely hate asking for money but it’s been kind of rough for me lately, so if you happen to enjoy my work and can comfortably toss me a coin, I would be extremely appreciative: https://ko-fi.com/kolunmi

Thanks so much!! Boosts appreciated <3

Recently we celebrated Trans Day of Visibility, but words alone aren't enough. If you want to apply for GNOME Foundation membership you don't need to provide your legal name, you can use your actual name!

We recognise the cruel reality that many trans people's legal names are deadnames.
