Still waiting for an album named "Madness" by that band that released "Prequel to Madness"

@gvwilson I've been following yours posts and I believe you achieved something pretty good already. I'll make sure to point anyone to it when recommending practical resources to learn any of those topics.

One minor thing, not sure if you are aware, the rendering of code blocks seems to have an issue on mobile. Either the long lines are not wrapped or the block isn't long enough.

Distributed Systems Design by Example: https://third-bit.com/2026/03/15/dsdx/ and https://third-bit.com/dsdx/. As the post says, I don't know if I'll ever finish this, but I hope what's there is useful.

Once in a month good news in Politics. (Despite a right wing party coming close in second...)
And a great speech too.

How weird it is to hear a song from a time you didn't live and feel nostalgic about it?
Is there even a name for that feeling?

This petition wants contributing to Free Software to be legally and officially recognized as volunteering in Germany on the same level as youth work or ambulance service:

https://www.openpetition.de/petition/online/recognition-of-work-on-open-source-as-volunteering-in-germany#petition-main

This would bring fiscal and funding advantages for FLOSS organizations and the volunteers themselves.

If you are a German citizen, please sign the petition and let's get our volunteers the recognition they deserve!
