hearing about fedora proposing adding ipv6-mostly support to Fedora 45 made me look into how to set up that kind of network. Ended up coming across a blog post of someone doing that:
https://varunpriolkar.com/2026/03/building-a-mostly-ipv6-only-home-network/

might look at setting up such a thing down the line myself

GDC 2016: "Three Statistical Tests Every Game Developer Should Know" by Elan Ruskin (@crash) of Insomniac Games https://gdcvault.com/play/1023323/Three-Statistical-Tests-Every-Game

This was really good. It was basically exactly what it said on the tin, plus gamedev-themed examples which really helped.

The three tests were
1. Student's T Test
2. Paired 2-sample T Test
3. Mann–Whitney U Test

Review: 10/10 This was great because it was concise, actionable, relevant, and answered questions I actually had before watching this presentation.

Don’t trust, verify

Software and digital security should rely on verification, rather than trust. I want to strongly encourage more users and consumers of software to verify curl. And ideally require that you could do at least this level of verification of other software components in your dependency chains. Attacks are omnipresent With every source code commit and … Continue reading Don’t trust, verify →

I didn't realize the facebook execs Mozilla acqui-hired last year have been promoted! I was assuming they were still just heading the ads division of Mozilla, but oh boy, I fucking wish.

Now the former Senior VP of Marketing of facebook (2008-2022, the finest years of facebook) is the CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER of the entire Mozilla.

And the former VP of Ads in Facebook (2012-2022), is now the Senior VP of Product of Mozilla.

Let me repeat this:

The guy who used to lead the facebook team that was literally "advertising to teenagers based on their emotional state" is now the guy who decides the direction of Firefox as a product. But hey, let's keep giving Mozilla the benefit of the doubt uh? I'm sure these people-who-should-be-on-trial-in-the-hague are going to do great things for the community!

edit: Bradwood has been promoted to Chief Business Officer of the Mozilla Corporation, not Chief Financial Officer, my bad

edit2: as @[email protected] pointed out, even if Graham Mudd's title is "SVP of Product", the bio in his page talks about him as the SVP of Product for the Mozilla Ads division specifically. So it may be the case that he hasn't been promoted and he's just on top of the ad division. That being said, Mozilla doesn't have a Chief Product Officer anymore, and that makes Mudd the most senior product person in the entire Mozilla organization, outranking the VP that seems to be org-wide.
