Na een lange en chaotische avond, stemde de Tweede Kamer voor de asielwetten van minister Faber.

Het wordt zélfs strafbaar om ongedocumenteerde mensen te helpen met onderdak, een maaltijd of kleding.

Help ons dit beleid tegen te houden, teken én deel de petitie:

Teken de petitie: Stop de asielwetten | GroenLinks-PvdA

Stop de asielwetten! Deze wetten van het kabinet Wilders-Yesilgöz zijn asociaal, onverantwoord en onmenselijk. Teken de petitie en hou ze tegen.

EuroRust is evil for scheduling me at the same time as lcnr! 😄 So come see my talk if you're not interested in lcnr's talk, I guess.

Earlier this week, we as #RustWeek organizers came together for a dinner party to celebrate the success of RustWeek 2025 and make the first plans for RustWeek 2026! 🤩

We have some ideas, but what would *you* like to see at #RustWeek2026? What should we keep the same and what should we add or change? ✨

Really looking forward to see you all again next year. 💛

TIL that you should never ever post a web developer freelancer job on LinkedIn. I am buried in literally hundreds of messages that read:

"We have 17+ years experience in building websites using $top_3_chatgpt_results_for_static_site_generators”

Meanwhile, Mastodon is just endless #OpenSource love 💚💚💚.

On more #iocaine news: the scripting engine (Roto) continues to deliver awesomeness, and it's only going to get better.

You see, Roto has native support for running tests embedded in the scripts. Which means I can run them on startup or reload, and refuse the operation if the tests fail.

Soon, it will be possible to run iocaine test, and see the results scroll by.

Als er nog niet genoeg redenen waren om Signal te gebruiken in plaats van WhatsApp, dan moet dit toch wel doorslaggevend zijn. Meer lezen over het advertentiesysteem van Meta? https://www.bitsoffreedom.nl/2025/06/17/whatsapp-gaat-adverteren-stap-over-naar-signal/

When you make it to the top of Hacker News, you end up with lots of feedback that helps to improve your #OpenSource product. We're proud to introduce the latest version of our modular #BGP engine, Rotonda 0.4.2 'Bonjour des Pyrénées'.

Rotonda now relies on ‘roto’ 0.6.0, the JIT compiled, strongly-typed, embedded scripting language for #rustlang that is the driving force behind its flexibility. There are bug fixes, quality of life improvements and an assignment operator!

Released 2025-06-18. With this release, Rotonda switches to version 0.6.0 of the roto library. While many things have improved behind the scenes and under the hood, there are no breaking or otherwi...

What is @nlnetlabs favorite #U2 song?

Where the Streets Have No Name, because "their love turns to #rust".

(Sorry).

The internet is the only place where you can randomly stumble across a writing system, jokingly go "hey those symbols look like butts" and 5 minutes later you're on Wikipedia learning about the grammar, where it's used, the pronunciation and the culture around it.

What a wonderful place!
