Alchemy is only ever going to get better and it is improving every year.

Soon Alchemy will make goldminers obsolete.

Today we’re quietly (and finally!) opening up Railfinder to the public! This is our beta version and - hopefully - the first step towards that one booking site for trains across Europe that we all dream of.

Lots of work has gone into this and equally lots still to do before reach that vision, but if you’d like to try what we’ve built you can now just go to https://www.railfinder.eu and have a go!

Any and all feedback more than welcome 🙏

Something that’s been bothering me for years in the security world: why do researchers demand bug bounties for vulnerabilities in open source projects, when the very contributors maintaining and fixing those issues get nothing, just goodwill?

It feels deeply unfair. The burden falls on unpaid maintainers, yet bounty hunters get rewarded. If you want a paid bounty, maybe help fund the people who actually fix the mess too.

Here's an overview of the public transport data that goes into #Transitous via #GTFS, #GBFS and #OSM, and how you can help to extend this in your region: https://volkerkrause.eu/2025/06/14/transitous-adding-data.html

Any improvement there benefits applications like #GNOME Maps, #KDE Itinerary or #Träwelling.

I finally cleaned up and released my Hugo preview plugin for #KDE's Kate on Invent:

It's available on my COPR if you're using a Fedora-based distribution:
