"Autofahrer hatten keine Rettungsgasse gebildet. Ein Notarzt machte sich deshalb zu Fuß auf den Weg zur Einsatzstelle. Er rannte die Autobahn entlang bis er von einem Autofahrer 1 Fahrrad geliehen bekam. Damit fuhr er dann gut 1 km bis zur Unfallstelle."

Leute, die für die LG drastische Haftstrafen für den verzögerten Einsatz von Rettungskräften forderten: 🎶 🙉 🙊 🎶

MIT Press maintains a set of their books that are listed as "Open Access", and of them, 297 different books and documents provide a helpful PDF edition of their titles.

I have "ported" these over to the Internet Archive where they live a life and have links back to their original MIT Press pages should you want to buy a hard copy:

In my 17 years as a software developer, I’ve pulled exactly zero all-nighters.

Don’t let anyone tell you they’re necessary. If you’re thinking of pulling one voluntarily, don’t, and if your boss asks you to pull an all-nighter, quit on the spot.

If you feel that all-nighters are necessary for your job, you have the wrong job. Your own physical and mental health are vastly more important than your employer’s revenue and profit.

Don’t allow capitalists to deprive you of essentials, like sleep.

Fighting for the open web.

I need a project name! I've prototyped a little unnamed project that isn't ready for an initial release yet. It allows us to scale up the LVFS another two order of magnitude by making the metadata download decentralized. It's not designed for firmware or packages, although seems to work with those too.

See https://github.com/hughsie/lcached/blob/wip/hughsie/initial/README.md for a rough outline.

My boss has banned me from naming anything ever again after fwupd, so all ideas welcome. `lcdnd` was also vetoed, although is very googlable :)
